    Beware - Newegg "Egg Saver" Shipping

    On November 10 DHL announced that due to economic uncertainty they were ceasing all domestic air and ground operations, so that probably is a contributing factor as they shut down their hubs across the US.(http://www.dhl-usa.com/restructuring/domupdate.asp) The only time I've had something...

    Xsi

    I got a Nikon D40 for my bday but was given the option of upgrading to the XSi if I wanted to, with me paying the difference of course. The cheapest price I've found from reputable dealers is $890 for the body, the 18-55mm kit lens (which has good reviews) and the 55-250mm zoom lens. It has been...

    Nikon D40 vs Canon Rebel XSi

    I spoke with my brother, who's a (semi) professional photographer, and he told me not to get the Canon telephoto lens above because it is crap. I'm looking at getting the body and the wide angle lens (cheapest I've found is $650) and This lens, which I've found for $250. Its more than I wanted...

    Nikon D40 vs Canon Rebel XSi

    I edited my post above...Newegg has the camera and two Canon lenses for $753. I think the Nikon was somewhere around $600 (not totally sure though) and I'd rather spend as little money as possible for the Canon and comprable lenses...preferably not more than $200 or so. Thanks alot for the...

    Nikon D40 vs Canon Rebel XSi

    I don't really have a set budget but like I said the Nikon was a bday gift so I have to pay the difference between the XSi and the Nikon. I did some research on that company in the link I posted above and they're most likely not legit. They have bad reviews and an "Unsatisfactory" rating from...

    Nikon D40 vs Canon Rebel XSi

    A few days ago for my birthday I got a Nikon D40 DSLR. It came with an 18-55mm lens, a 55-200mm lens, and a 2gb SD card. However, I have the option of upgrading to a Canon Rebel XSi. From the same store as the Nikon (Costco), the Canon was a few hundred dollars more (it is $799, and I would have...

    what brand of HDD is top quality?

    I have 3 WD drives- 2 of them are 250gb and about 1.5 years old...the other is 160gb and about 3 years old. Neither of them have had any problems. I also have a 60gb Maxtor that's about 6 or 7 years old, and while I don't use it anymore it still works great and I've never had any problems...

    Data restoration company's?

    Depending on the problem data restoration can be, as stated above, a couple thousand dollars. When I had a problem with my drive and I thought it needed to be sent to a data recovery company, I found companies by going to the website of the manufacturer of my drive (Western Digital) and there...

    New Computer Build Help!

    I agree with you on the motherboard...I have the NF67-A1 and I love it. I got it at a good price, too. I don't like that case too much. Spotty reviews and questionable quality lead me to believe that it's a crappy case. I have the Antec P180B and it is a fantastic case. I personally love the...

    Should I cancel my 8800GT

    Depends...do you really want the extra performance boost? If you want it for COD4 and want every last frame, go with the 8800GTS. I personally just stepped up my 8800GTS 320mb to the 8800GTS 512mb, partially because the 8800GT was backordered but mostly because I didn't mind the extra few bucks...

    RAID question...plz help

    I believe you can do RAID 1 with your three Seagate drives, however, it would be pointless. Having two 320gb drives in RAID with a 500gb drive would limit the storage space of the 500gb drive to 320gb, so you are losing 180gb of storage space. My recommendation would be to run the two 320gb...
