Damn, I can't believe this thing still gets posts. But while I'm looking at it, here's something that I've discovered from being a bachelor having to cook for 20 girls during an asian night party. A damn cheap way to whip up a ton (re: 20 pounds cooked) of stir fry is to grab ramen, ideally oriental...

The E-machines system is now the property of my bro Rambo, got $700 out of it. Looking to unload the HP now, current (supposed) local offer is 800 but that's not solid yet. I'd also be willing to ditch the Dell, though I did a little match on the parts I've put into it and I'd hopefully like to see ...

Hey savant PM me the specs on your offering.

Little FYI, my current local offers are 800 on the HP (but I gotta wait two weeks) and 700 on the e-machines (gotta see what's going on with that on Wed.)

Postage would probably run aorund $30 - $40 via EMS, maybe $50. I try and mark stuff to get by customs, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

Looks like the HP's fair game again.

And I still do't see why more peeps don't want the E-machine, it's a tits little laptop.

Man, everybody wants that HP. Kind of a drag, as that was the one I was contemplating keeping for myself. And FYI the reason I wanted USPS so badly is UPS and Fedex like to leave packages with my neighbors when I'm not here to recieve them... Same here, living in aprtments surrounded by illegal migr...

#1's got a 12.1 inch screen. Shipping within the US will hopefully be around $15 for all models with tracking and insurance, gotta make sure they fit in flat rate boxes with the packaging.

Either you or I could slap a wireless card in the mini-pci bay on the E-Machines. The integrated GFX looks like some kind of second-gen Intel graphics controller, might be a little better for gaming though I haven't tested that out myself.

Alright guys, I'm seriously thinking about that HP. I currently have a Toshiba 2.4ghz Celeron. Is that 1.8 Sempron faster? The E-machines is a 2.8 gig, so it might be a little faster than the HP. Could probably use a little RAM, luckily the expansion slot's open. I'll offer $550 + shipping (USPS pr...

When I was a kid, my folks would give me some really hot Tang (the space-age orange drink mix). It usually helped for a while. They make throat sprays to numb your throat up, think the name brand is Chloroseptic. You can probably find a store brand that does the same thing for half the price. If you...

Yeah, I might toss em on ebay. I'll have these for at least the next two weeks before I really try and sell 'em, to those of you who were interested PM me with offers. I'd certainly rather hook up some DCEmu bretheren then let them go on e-bay, can usually work a better deal that way anyways and i d...

What caliber is the SA80 anyways? And you're calling it an assualt rifle so I'll assume it's a bit beyond the individual weapon, like say an M-16 or M-4 carbine. Is this an individual machine gun, something like an M249 SAW, or a heavier crew-served machine gun like an M240 or the old M60? I wouldn'...

See, this is why you never pass your weapon off to anyone when you've signed it out. You sling it when you eat or sh*t and cuddle up next to it in your sleeping bag or on your cot. I can't believe a SGM would do that, basic trainees learn better than that.
