Believe it or not, I've been using a 46" 1080P Samsung LED TV as my monitor all these years but lately it has been straining my eyes, so I downsized to 22" Benq that had been lying around. I've been using it for the last few weeks and the eye-strain reduced quite a bit after that. Still, the 22"...

I am looking for a reasonably priced 27" monitor. It's going to be used for general web browsing and some office app type work so I am not interested in very high end specs. Price around Rs. 15K-20K range (the lower the better). Thanks in advance.

Not trying to convince you but you gave up on the Micromax A110 too easily. I have only owned major brand phones (Samsung, Ericsson, HTC, Apple, Alcatel) and I picked up the A110 with a little bit of skepticism despite the rave reviews it has garnered, after dumping a Samsung Galaxy S Duos I...

Happens, data souces aent always perfectly up to date Assuming they are warehousing items and using a database check to see what is coming into and going out of it, this is probably the simplest tally to maintain and to take orders according to whether they are in or out of stock. If they are...

I placed a COD order on flipkart.com for a Micromax A90 when it clearly said "In Stock. Expect delivery in 3-5 business days". Six days later, with no status change on the order, I sent e-mail inquiring about the delay. They sent e-mail back saying that the order had been cancelled "as our...

Ask for surgical spirit in a medical store. That's what I use.

Since I need to copy A3/legal sized documents from time to time (i.e. the longer sheets compared to A4 size), can anyone recommend a home-office laser MFP that has a scan bed of that size? Most of the ones on the market have only a A4/letter sized scanning bed which cuts off part of a A3 size...

Your best bet is to visit your local computer bazaar (like SP Road, Bangalore) and try the shops that carry computer parts, repair supplies and equipment. I've had no problem finding replacements for blown power supplies for routers, laptops etc. there. But a 5V/2A spec PS is unusual (most of 5V...

I prefer a new one. The specs for the Asus board you mentioned state that it only accepts DDR3. I would like to re-use the DDR2 800 memory I have, if possible.

I bought this CPU a couple of years ago and was using it with a 780G motherboard that died recently. What is a cheap, alternate integrated GPU board that is on the market currently that I could use it with that accepts the 2Gb DDR2 800 RAM that I've salvaged along with the CPU and hard-drive...

One final check: If your HDMI driver is installed, when you right-click on the speaker icon in your taskbar and bring up "Adjust Audio Properties->Audio" panel, you should have a choice for either HDMI out or your computer speaker out in the "Audio->Sound playback->Default device" pulldown menu.

Rumors are that there's going to be one or more cheaper Iphones to beat back the Android challenge.

Re: Indian Students been treated as Animals in the US Don't know if they still do it, but Singapore used to cane those who overstayed their visas or committed other immigration fraud. In fact, I remember a big board in the old Chennai international terminal which warned of such action and...

I picked up a CM Elite 100 from Ankit on SP Road, Bangalore (I think the damage was around Rs 2000 or so). I'm pretty sure any local computer shop stocking Cooler Master products will have it too. Be advised that it is a very compact case so you will need a low-profile cooler for one thing and...

I've done a couple of mini-itx builds and IMHO the effort that needs to be put in and the returns on investment for going small not to mention the restrictions on future expansion are just not worth the effort. You'd be better off going the micro-atx way where the on-board graphics chips on even...

Anyone know a B&M shop in Bangalore that sells silicone skins for my Galaxy S?

Just picked up a Samsung Galaxy S after ditching my two year old Iphone 3G. Despite it being a little more kludgy and a little less intuitive than the Iphone interface, it's almost a copy of it. I recommend it, especially for it's larger screen and the fact that you don't have to tell Stevie...

BSNL supplied me the Micromax 300C EVDO USB modem with their EVDO plan and I'm looking for a wireless router that will work with it Most places have a modem for the 300G, which is the 3G version, but I haven't seen one for this newer modem. I even called 3Gstore and the guy hadn't even heard of...

Nice writeup. Brings out the inner-geek in me to assemble one. Luckily I found a 220V Kill-a-Watt on sale for about 10 pounds at Maplins when I was in London last and picked one up. It sure is useful if you can get your hands on one as it gives you the wattage, VA, PF, frequency, Amps etc..

B&H is one of the older New York mail-order stores and they are pretty reliable. I've ordered many times from them while I lived in the U.S. with no problems whatsoever. Highly recommended.
