    KF42WE610 from One Call - Anyone Have Experience Ordering Large Screen Monitor?

    I recently ordered the KF42WE610 from Onecall.com. I'm in the que for delivery like everyone else, (2 months for the 42" and about 1 month for the 50") but that is not a problem as I am patient. In the past, I've done business with them for smaller items which was a positive experience, but...

    Gents, Is it worth the extra $100-$150 to upgrade to the Radeon Pro 9800 (if I can find it) versus the stock 9800 model? I was in CC today and picked up the 9800 on a whim, ($249) but have not installed it yet. They only had one left at CC and BB's stock was putrid. I've done some...

    After reading some suggestions from Camp and others to start another thread on the New Anthem AVM-20 2.0 software upgrade, we may as well begin anew. Sometimes when those threads get so long, it's difficult to make any sense of them as time goes by. Just in case anyone is interested in the...
