I have found Grado SR-80s (I have the original ones, not the newer "i" version) to be a great compromise of sound and price. I run them with the EQ on my iPod flat, and they sound great.

Same here. I occasionally look at some of the other options out there, but the DVR and guide functions built into WMC keep me from switching. Maybe when XBMC can get an integrated DVR and guide (that isn't a pain to install and configure) AND work with my Xbox 360, maybe I'll look at it again.

The only time I ever got a nasty gram from AT&T about tethering was when I tethered my laptop to my phone a few times. Apparently if you are using a large amount of data they start looking more closely at your usage, including some of the information your browser includes in its page requests. If they see a desktop…

It is all about additional functionality to me. Apple puts some seriously odd (and sometimes, stupid, namely their blue tooth stack) restrictions on the phone's hardware, and jailbreaking enables me to get better use out of the hardware.

My thoughts exactly. I use Weather Underground and RadarScope for my weather needs. USWeather when I need to look at prog charts.

If the fighter was having issues with its transponder, then TCAS doesn't work. It has to receive a reply from the potential conflict aircraft to be able to issue traffic, and if needed, a resolution advisory.

I actually have had the opposite problem. I swapped in a BR30 LED in one of our recessed fixtures, and while I find the light itself more pleasing, it is also slightly brighter than the incandescent it replaced. Not a problem when I need all the light, but when I dim the lights in the room for watching movies it is…

They can create issues of their own. Any structure that is near the runway that is more than a few feet in height can affect the wind at the surface. I flew out of an airport that was next to a quarry in light single engine aircraft and it wasn't unusual to get some odd winds from the quarry, only to have them subside…

Minutemen ICBMs could only be launched by a launch command from two launch control centers in the same flight/wing (someone correct me with the correct term) which in turn required both individuals in the launch center to turn the key to command a launch. So even with a ridiculously easy code, there was still no way…

Blue lines are probably at or above FL240, or (roughly) 24,000' for the non-pilots out there. Blue line to the NW is J45 to Nashville.

I actually went to the Shawnee Sonic too!

Yes it is. Just as BMW USA is headquartered in Spartanburg, SC.

Haggling with the cable company only really works if there is a real threat of competition in your area, or you have repeated service issues and work far enough up the food chain to someone who has the ability to do something about it. If you are in a market where few to no alternatives exist, and the reps know it,…

That is exactly what Adobe wants to lull people into. "Oh it's only $20 a month!" It is the same tactic used by car dealers to get people to pay more for cars by stringing out the length of payments to make the car fit into their budget.

Look at what the current CS educational pricing is, and you will see why this is NOT a good deal.

Simply turn mail off for the account in question (you can still leave calendars, contacts and notes enabled so those will sync) , and the default mail app will stop running in the background.

I'm going to guess you are describing either the I-75 or Ga 400 interchanges on I-285.
