I always suggest doing it in reverse, not for the additional interests that can be earned, but because it's easier to complete a challenge like this if you have to put less and less money into savings that if you have to do more and more. I think arranging it so that the biggest deposits don't correspond to the…

Almost grabbed that keyboard from Radioshack for that price. Passed it up. We did pick up a Roku 2 XD there. $40 after instant rebate. That was Monday so the prices are probably still effective this week.

Still one of my favorite college memories is the day my roommate and I were enjoying the giant bag of popcorn his mother sent, called her to say thank you, and she said she hoped we were enjoying the cookies. At which point, we realized we were eating the packaging, dug through the box and hit paydirt in baked goods…

Sounds kinda pricey for packaging material.

Xbox just about a month before I was forced to upgrade my PCs and no longer needed the XBMC. Though extending the life of games with Xlink Kai was still a good feature. Got my PSP doing some retro gaming since my UMD drive would not read anymore. I keep meaning to get a microSD to Memory Stick Pro adapter so I…

I don't know how your arrangement is, but whoever maintains the primary profile will have to contend with the "old stuff" for a while as the things they weren't really interested in will take some time to get phased out of their profile. If you want to avoid this headache, you'll want to take a secondary account. …

If I add a movie to my Instant Watch queue, I find that I can usually go a couple levels deep in the recommendations it presents. Other than that, I don't find it too useful. That said, ours got swamped with suggestions suited for my kid since most of the viewing was being done by her.

I call BS. Apple users are all about aesthetics. No way they're doing this. A simple white cup. wit maybe an Apple sticker, would be the solution. The phone would sit flat or on a simple dock/holder.

I've done this. Which is why I'm come to the conclusion I need to sit down with the manual.

Everytime my daughter has an event in the school auditorium, I realize I should have taken the time to read the camera manual. My current camera does terrible with the point and shoot settings when shooting the stage from the dark room.

Effectively puts your phone out of commission when you want to enjoy TV uninterrupted. Not necessarily a problem for you. For LH readers, they may have solutions at hand that would preempt this, but I can certainly envision trying to enjoy your media, alone or with others, and being interrupted by a call that you…

If given a choice between a pricey brand and a cheaper private label, I will take the private label. If given no private label choice, I will pass altogether if I'm not satisfied with the price point. Doing this allows the brand name product to get a bit of the profit to be had from folks like me. And it's…

You live in a different place than I. Store brand rotates like a mofo in all the areas I've lived in.

Thanks.

Thorin just drops "Beaglebone" out there like it's something I'm supposed to have heard of.

It would have been a worthwhile test to find out given the whole of what I was doing, but I decided it wasn't the tool to fit the purpose. After some conversation, here, I wasn't sure it could distinguish between proper options and the tricky ones that hope you won't catch that unchecking means you will install the…

Just used this. Quite impressed.

This is valid and I do consider that. It makes me further consider that it may have been rushed to market. Now, that might not be true, but is cause to think hard about installation. Hopefully you have some app reviews if you're the developer. It's not like I'm an early adopter. I've got time to wait if you do.

Perhaps I shouldn't, but I immediately dismiss any app when there is a glaring error like this one makes. Sure, it's an easy update to fix the name of the app, but when I see such obvious misspellings in crucial places (installer, app description, menu's, important UI elements) it makes me feel like the developer…

"Do not install bundleware"
