  1. Awesome little projector. Always wanted a good one but never wanted to pay the price! haha
  2. Keyboard. I'm just tired of my normal keyboard and I can't bring myself to spend the money on a nice mechanical one lol.
  3. I always wanted the Z1 but never liked the screen either, so I went elsewhere. I would love this Z2 though! And dbrand, they do have nice skins. I agree with the initial "you can say this" Linus put at the top haha.
  4. A few months ago I had picked up the Guild Wars 2 mouse from Steelseries (back around Christmas) because it was on a nice sale. I got it for about $18 I think? Maybe $20, I can't remember lol. Anyways, I picked it up, was all excited because I knew it was pretty much the Sensei Raw edition. Well, it's my first laser mouse, and all I have had in the past have either been ball (LONG time ago) and optical. I notice the laser skips around sometimes and it's occasionally challenging to make straight lines with the cursor lol. (In games it seems fine though oddly enough) My opticals have never done that. Is this the acceleration problems Linus mentioned in the video? My previous mouse was an optical Logitech MX518 and it was always accurate. I just wanted to know if this is normal, not normal, or if I am crazy haha. Besides that, I love the mouse. Great feel, good size, hand fits great on it, clicks well, looks nice and glows red to match my build.
  5. Even if antiviruses were all the same, and all of them protected you from just 45% of attacks, it's still better than no antivirus. Plus as others stated above, use a little common sense. I see people all the time "oooo that on the side! what's that?" and then they click it. No. Just stop. They will mention ads to me then on my computer, and I have to ask what they are talking about. I just don't notice the ads or anything weird on the sides or tops or wherever. Then while surifng, don't click everything you see. Ugh so many people I know do that kind of stuff. Just stop lol. Anyways, I use a combination of Comodo, Malwarebytes, and Spybot. I find those 3 together work very well. Recently, my girlfriends mother bought herself and my girlfriend laptops at staples without me being there. The guys there suggested they were "professionals" and laughed that I could handle the laptops when my girlfriend and her mom got back. They swindled them into buying an $80 Norton 360 antivirus and paying them to "set the computers up". Well needless to say, they did all sorts of crazy things to their settings and other crap including that Norton she bought. Then a week later, my girlfriends mom's laptop was hacked. Norton. Ugh. I had fixed my gf's laptop up, and added in different antivirus. Hers is fine.
  6. Short and simply put, I love the build quality most with all that metal! I currently have a GS3 and all that plastic...bleh. Also, I would love some freaking front facing speakers for once.
  7. Everquest way back in the day. Longest session was roughly 42-43 hours straight. I got to the point I couldn't stay awake anymore, and just went to bed, right there, with the game still going lol I haven't gone that long since, and never plan to.
  8. Honestly, I agree with the original post for the most part. Most of the time from my experience, the people I know who play CoD either only play it, or play some other games that they never finish. The majority I know that play CoD really only do play CoD. Then there's those few out there, the real gamers, that play CoD as well as many, many games as a wide variety on many different devices. (PC, different consoles, whatever else) So, like I said at the beginning, I agree with the original post, but not completely. I don't play CoD myself, unless I go to a friends house where they are playing it with lots of other people. I might try Ghosts. It looks a tad better than the recent releases. There's my 2 cents lol.
  9. I have a 1tb hdd in my main desktop that is almost full at around 900gb, a 1tb WD usb 3.0 My book external drive attached to said desktop that is full, a 500gb WD external drive that is full, and an extra external 500gb Lacie drive around here somewhere that is full. I need the extra space and don't have the funds at the moment for more space and I have so much digital information! It's very frustrating haha.
