I am? your saying there is more used out of more expensive product, which im not surprised at. This might be a good decently powerful modern option for that netbook http://goo.gl/N4tBLK . but if you trying to say that tablet arnt really made for doing things ill agree for the most part, but there are certain specific thing tablets excel at.

670 is not gone cause theres the 760 and what you talking about!

I shall disagree with that.

You're a very negative person, lol

I will start with mine: the pointing stick:

 

Image ( you can always search on google) :http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/0a/Mouse_pointing_stick.jpeg

 

I didn't mind using it instead of a mouse, furthermore if the ergonomy was good, it was perfectly confortable.

There is a little learning curve, that most non-techies couldnt handle just like they cant handle plugging the Ethernet cable. So it disappeared form the market in favor of the touch pad that I try to replace with a mice like a big deal.

(doing circles with it, faster, bigger, slower was very fast learning. It allowed the brain to establish understanding of the pointing behaviour along with acceleration and all that).

 

Someone says they still exist but I haven't seen them materially for over a decade.

Quite many ThinkPads has them:

My logitech g9x mouse. I love that thing. I will run it into the ground before I have to get a new mouse.

I've just noticed the Fiio E10 went out of stock in both Newegg and Amazon (and all the other stores I've checked). Not sure what's going on...

 

 

 

Maybe it'll come back in stock, but I've never seen a product go out of stock in all of the major online stores at once.

its a really nice product i love mine and wanted to get one for my parents hope they come back

 

also i miss some of the flashy over top cases like the azza 2000 hurricane it seems like more an more people are going for a more subtle look which i do like more but i do miss the crazy gamer xtreme XX led flashing case fans with buttons cases that we used to see more of 

and the pokeballs from Burger King that had the gold pokemon cards in them

its GE (pause) TechNicks

my rig plus everything i have bought for it http://pcpartpicker.com/p/30sNV

Here are a few things:

 

Floppy disks and drives

GTX 660Ti (all). Never saw one in stock on any website, yet.

PATA hard drives

Firewire (I love this waaaay more than even USB 3.0)

PS/2 keyboards (What's the point of having PS/2 on modern MBs without using it?)

RAM with activity LED's :(

I roll with sigs off so I have no idea what you're advertising.

 

This is NOT the signature you are looking for.

670 is not gone cause theres the 760 and what you talking about!

I was referring to the fact that I cannot find another new 670 anywhere to SLI with, but yeah the 760 is pretty awesome too.

I miss Acura RSX's. They look and are great cars that have decent mileage. I have no idea why Acura/Honda decided to drop the RSX line aside from wanting to be more "economical" or more "luxurious". Well, why can't we have an economic, luxury sports car? I literally missed a chance at getting one too.

My brother has an rsx it not worth the money he paid for it. For the same price he could of had a lan evo or sti that is just as comfortable and a better "sports" car, and thats likely the reason they were discontinued.

As for thing I miss I would say cars/trucks that last longer then a few years.

My 2005 escape is still going strong.  I've only needed to redo brake lines and solder on a new headlight pigtail.

Why can't we have a decent browser that doesn't hog up RAM? Chrome takes over 50% of my RAM, Firefox, surprisingly, with 75%. Even IE still uses 35%.

I second BAWLs. Best damn energy drink there ever was. You used to be able to get it at a few local stores and such, but no where has it anymore except maybe thinkgeek.

 

Also, 16:10 monitors. I had an alienware m17x r2 for a while, and while I had a lot of trouble with it otherwise, I still miss that screen. 16:10 in a laptop, and RGB LED. It was amazing. When I got my desktop monitor, it had to be 16:10, but it's impossible to find that in a laptop anymore, and that makes me sad.
