Besides the flexible silicon keyboards, what is the quietest black computer keyboard you have ever come across in your entire life? I have to say the black Microsoft Multimedia keyboard. What about you?

In case it matters I have a dell inspiron e1505. I plan on ordering a new hard drive from the dell website. I don't really know much about computers, and know nothing about the internal workings of one. I highly doubt it, but would I be able to put the hard drive in myself? If so, how? If not, would it be easy to find somebody else to do this, and about how much would it cost? Thanks. 10 points to the most helpful answer. If I left out any necessary details, please tell me and I'll update the question.

Apparently on 22nd of July there will be a big drop on alot of CPU's?
Im thinking of getting an AMD am2 athlon 64 x2 3800+ 2x2.0ghz

At the moment i can get it for around £40, will it drop to less in a few weeks time (22nd) or not?
And what CPU's will drop the most and will be the best value one (AMD or Intel.)

I just built a new computer and had some issues doing so, so I didn't set up RAID Iike I wanted to. Windows XP's preinstaller only recognized 127gb out of the 250gb on each HD. So I figured trying to get RAID working at that point wasn't a good idea. I installed SP2, and it sees my 250gb now, but I had to put the space beyond 127gb on a new partition. So, I have 4 partitions, which is really annoying. Anyway, I'd like to get RAID 1 going. My motherboard (ABIT IP35 Pro Snake) has a built-in SATA RAID controller. When I set this up am I going to have to wipe my HD's and reinstall Windows? Will I run into the same problem of it only recognizing up to 127gb? Any advice is appreciated as this will be my first time trying to set up RAID. Please don't advise me to install Vista by the way, I'm not considering that as an option at this point. Thank you!

I have an older (but good) video monitor I'd like to use for video editing to mirror the final output. But on my newer computer, it only has DVI outputs on the graphics card...

My video monitor only has the option for a single coaxial video signal in (not a BNC style, it's just 1 video port in) - that looks like a standard television coax cable connector...

Is there any way to down convert the DVI signal to a single video cable for this? I know the quality loss will happen, but it's just for fun. I can't find anything, only dvi->bnc type of things....Thanks.

I need to copy data files and pictures from my old computer that has Windows98 and have been unable to find compatible hardware. I looked into flash drives, but none our compatible with Win98.

I've heard bad things about cheap TV tuner cards but don't want to break for an expensive one. Is there anywhere that I can get an adapter to turn a coaxial signal into anything that can run on an LG L206WTY-BF? Or is there anywhere I can get an HDTV for less than $250 with at least a 20'' widescreen that will connect to a computer?

I'm building my own PC and was going to start off with a case with a 400watt PSU. Is this a suitable power? I want my PC for gaming (good but not serious) and movies, internet etc.

Also are there any good sites that will help me decide on specific specifications of hardware components?
