Although I love building new PC's, you can probably save money buying a refurbished office PC at a place like Newegg or my favorite, Microcenter. I purchased a refurbished Gatway PC, with an AMD E1200 processor, 4gb Ram, 500gig HD for 120 bucks at Microcenter in Cincinatti, OH. The only add on I made was a 32 gig SSD…

and if you were wondering what that was. http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/kentuc…

Kentucky - Bourbon, if that doesn't count as food, then the Kentucky Hot Brown.

I have a similar DIY desk that uses a door for the top. Mine uses file cabinets as legs. The only problem with the door desktop is that it is hollow, and there really isn't a way to secure it in position. This may be a good thing for some, bad for others.

Supposedly it was to help him get quicker on defense. He had to put on weight in Miami because they didn't have a real PF., and they needed him to defend and score at that position a lot. Now he can play as a true SF.

Actually, if you use the modern apps for Netflix, Watch ESPN, Amazon IV, Fox, FX, History, ABC, ABC Family, Discovery, etc. you get the same quality as a Roku. Not sure why they run so much better that way than in the browser, but they do.

To paraphrase your rebuttal.. "They make lots of money. Who cares where they want to work/play. It downgrades my entertainment value"

Windows 8.1. The metro interface is actually really good for a HTPC. I use a Logitech wireless keyboard that has a trackpad on it.

Vote: DIY HTPC

I am more interested in the CANtenna he uses to get long range wifi access. That would be a cool DIY article to write. I need something cheap to pick up wifi for my parents who live in rural Kentucky.

This ^^ and thats coming from a Registered Dietitian.

I have to admit, I like most of the writers on LH, but Alan is just the best. His articles are well structured, thought out, and are relevant. He doesn't seem to have any bias, and if he does he openly admits it.

Its not a full size keyboard, but its pretty damn close. It would probably be too small for you. It is designed to be portable, so it is only logical that size is sacrificed.

I use an HP Omni 10 Win 8.1 tablet with the MS Wedge Keyboard. This keyboard types exceptionally well for a travel keyboard. The case folds to be a tablet stand. My office computer is a P4 XP machine with 1 gig of RAM (I work for public schools in KY...) I use my tablet as my workhorse, and with this keyboard, a usb…

Does anyone here have any knowledge about these HD antenna and how they work with TV tuner cards? I purchased a hauppage usb tv tuner stick. I hooked it up to an amplified RCA branded hd antenna and got almost zero signal or channels. I then connected the tiny antenna (un-amplified) that came with the tuner stick and…

Both. 8 upgrades to 8.1, and 8.1 upgrades to this.

It's no surprise that an article in SI said something like that, but if you ask guys like Demarcus Cousins, who openly said he wanted to come back, but Cal said no. It wasn't because we didn't have a spot on the team (We actually had no bigs the next season other than Josh Harrellson. Any coach who doesn't persuade a…

Touché. In all honesty, I despised him when he was at Memphis. I thought he was a cheater like everyone else, but then I did some research, and realized he has no control over who his players talk to in the off-season (Camby). He also was not the only coach recruiting Derick Rose, and accepted him AFTER the NCAA…

Seriously? You can't be more creative than that? Why would he even have to cheat at Kentucky? 3 Final Four's in 4 years, More NCAA tournament wins than any other coach since hes been at UK. Oh, and he has never once been cited with a charge by the NCAA. Cry more please.

I think they are actually hinting toward this. Especially since they are making a sinister 6 and Venom movie. They are trying to show that the Universe is gray, not black and white.
