    Does anyone here dread shopping at radio shack anymore?

    The majority of receipt printers any more are thermal printers as no actual ink is needed to print the receipt and can be printed very quickly due to that. But unfortunately the coated paper does tend to fade after a while. There are receipt scanners out there (Neat Receipts is one brand) if...

    Need Help Selecting A Couple High Quality Snow Shovels

    Snow? What is this snow you speak of? It's been seriously warm and dry here in southern Kansas this year. At this rate we might not see ANY snow this year.

    Cell phone with a TV yet? anybody?

    The only place I have ever see these types of phones is over at Deal Extreme. From looking at the specs the phones are only able to receive PAL or NTSC signals. But since the switchover to digital here in the USA those phones will be rather worthless now for watching TV.

    Major East Coast Snow Storm - WooT !

    Snow? What's that? :p It's mostly been in the 50's for what feels like all winter here in southern Kansas. We have had some snow... but nothing like we used to get when I was a kid. Oh and I must add it has gotten up to the 60s. Hit 70 once and forecast to hit 80 by Thursday.

    How should I address an internaional package?

    At least in the US the postal systems uses OCR technology on letter/flat mail. If it cannot read what has been printed/typed then an image of the piece gets sent to a data center where many hundreds of people sit 24hrs a day 7 days a week 365 days a year. They type in what the system needs to...

    Better use your Circuit City Gift Cards Now

    The 'crooks' in this case will be the Liquidators marking stuff up to get every last penny they can out of the merchandise before the doors close for good in March. So don't blame Circuit for the markup as they don't have control over it anymore.

    sony ericcson or nokia isync with computer?

    I don't have a mac so can't really add anything useful here. For the nokia phones I suggest you try looking over at the Nokia Discussion forums under the PC and Mac Software section. They should have the best answer there for you regarding Nokias. http://discussions.nokiausa.com/discussions/

    Running a "modern" laptop on wireless network?

    Correct. The current limit on the Data Connect feature is 5GB/month with 0.00048/KB over the 5GB. That's the current offering though.. Your sisters current contract may be different! She may or may not be on an older plan with different details...

    Running a "modern" laptop on wireless network?

    I'm assuming that it is a wireless broadband card for her laptop that she is using and she is paying for wireless broadband access from AT&T ($60/month for the data connect). If so.. she should be able to upgrade to a more current model. Check here all the way at the bottom for the current...

    Computer Monitors..???

    I have a Dell 2007WFP myself. I love it. It's a 20" widescreen which is almost the same width/height as the old 17" CRT Sony Trinitron monitor I had! No dead pixels (non working) upon arrival, but like 3 pixels that I have noticed that are stuck (always the same color). They are red in color...

    Problems with Free AVG8 updates?

    Strange. I just ran an update on my end and it found an update and installed it just fine. This is on an install of XP Pro with only SP2 installed. I use firefox but that shouldn't matter for the anti-virus.
