    Your favorite video game hero of all time

    WHAT!?! No one has chosen The Bard? Well, let me humbly choose The Bard. He could do miracles with a lute and kept my party from dying many a time. For all you young whippersnappers, do a little research on The Bard's Tale (not the new one, which I am excited for, of course, but the old one's...

    Need recommendations for hard drive recovery service

    Ouch, the click of death. You are probably right, but at the worst you are out 10 minutes of unscrewing the case and turning it over and swapping cables. I haven't used a data recovery service, myself, so I;m afraid I can't offer a suggestion for one. Though I have heard all the good ones are...

    Need recommendations for hard drive recovery service

    Yep, though he took the drive off the rails and just turned it over. I don't know why, but he was able to recover some data. Maybe the platters had collapsed and flipping the drive over caused the spindle to reset. Or some other explanationm filled with jargon... Also, what symptoms do you...

    Need recommendations for hard drive recovery service

    Have you tried turning it over? I have had a friend or two that was able to (slowly) get data off a dead drive just by turning it over. Probably won't work, but you would only be out a little time...

    game room - dart board

    Make sure it is a THICK corkboard if you are mouting it on the wall directly. My brother put his up right after painting his 'Georgia' room. We made the mistake of lettubng my Mom take a shot, which wasn't even close. When we pulled the dart out of the corkboard, you could see the red paint and...

    Linksys WGA54G / anyone using?

    I downloaded Version 2.00.8.1h.wfb (Last update: 11/01/2004 - 15: 00 Paris), as that was the last one that was there last time I updated. I had to run it through the updater twice for it to take, and then wait a couple minutes and power cycle the router, but it has been working great ever since...

    Linksys WGA54G / anyone using?

    I use the WRT54G and love it. Have you guys seen this? firmware This guy is writing his own firmware (the Linksys code is GPL'd) that adds MANY good enhancements. I especially like the 'Antenna transmit power' setting. The default is %25, but with his firmware, you can up it to 100%. My...

    Robert, since I haven't heard from the others, the 4 are yours. Over on AVS, there are a couple other guys that live in Ohio as well (Dayton and Columbus).

    Sounds great Ed! I know you aren't interested in large or small, but I can't wait to see your list so we can talk business :-) Did you see my other thread on the theater seats? I have been looking for three years for a theater closing down where I could find theater seats on the cheap and...

    Themed Room

    I am in the dreaming stages, of course, but when I build my house, I am toying with the idea of making the theater be called "Under the SEAnema" and making it themed as an under the ocean scene with coral and fish murals and the like (and maybe a few Ariel pictures up for good measure). I'd be...

    Okay, here is the deal. I have 16 chairs available at $30 each. 8 have been spoken for. First come first serve, and I won't be shipping unless I can't sell the last 8. The chairs (as you can see from the picture) are in good shape. Turns out I have 4 red chairs to go along with the 12 blue...

    Possible theater seats available

    in the Nashville/Huntsville area. I got 4 for myself and am checking into getting more. Would there be any interest from you if they are available? Haven't decided on shipping somewhere else. Price about $25-$30 per chair. Used, but in really good shape. I'll post pictures if there is interest
