Why is it that we do not see many Geek code blocks anymore? The last one I saw was attached to a Unix Guru's email sig. I think they are a great way of confusing users/lamers. .

Wireless Technology

2. 4GHz Wireless Technology is one of the best features the Xcam2 has. Picture quality is razor sharp. Other features are also outstanding. If you don’t ascribe to my views, go. .
Verizon = Hell on Earth
Atreyu
I need an outlet, and I thought the other forum at NTCompatible would be a fitting place. . How else to describe my rage towards Verizon other than to say they are without competition, the most unorganized, poorly-managed, incompetent, selfish, deceiving, and careless company I’ve ever dealt with.

What do you think the coolest gaming mouse would be? Doesn't have to exist yet. For me, I would want it to combine the purported accuracy of the Wingman with the A4tech (yes, A4tech) four button, two scroll wheel mouse, and the Logitech Ifeel model.

Speaker recommendations?
AndyFair
OK - I've decided it's time to update my PC speakers from the 2 poxy little things that sit beside my monitor. So what do you guys use? Any recommendations. Cost not so much of an issue - I'd rather pay decent money for something that sounds good and lasts a few years rather than go the cheap and cr@ppy route.

After having a recent bout with Qwest I want to know what your Opinions are on so called high speed internet. My first of impression is that it's a joke. In korea I got 5 Mb DSL for 26 bucks a month.

Anybody have any info on these v. 44 modems I'm hearing about? Someone recommended shotgunning two of these as an alternative to Adelphia Cable as they are not signing any new customers in my area and don't have any idea when they might.
