I see pics of these things all the time in articles that talk about computer processors. They're shiny, gold, and holographic looking. About 18 inches in diameter. They're always being help by people in a clean room. I guess the rectangles have something to do with chips. I think they have something to do with the development process.

They didn't have one, so I went somewhere else and got a new one. Best Buy left everything unplugged, so I had to figure out where everything went. I think I have it all plugged in right, but when I turn the computer on, it says "disk boot failure. insert system disk and press enter". Why is it doing this? And what should I do? (I haven't found my disk yet anyway and will this erase everything that's on my computer?)

I have checked Dell.com & Bestbuy and Circuit City and the only way i could get a laptop with a dedicated graphics card was to purchase a model that was at least 300$ more then the other models randing in the low 1000's.

What is the best laptop out there, that i can use for music, videos, Instant Messaging, Internet, typing, among other things. I have heard the Macbook Pro is a good laptop since it can do both mac and windows pc applications but requires you to buy the windows program. So what is the best laptop out there, price doesnt really matter but i would like it under 4,000.

I was going to get an HP because in my opinion that is the best brand but I found Apple notebooks and I was wondering was that also a good brand for a laptop or was it not so good like Dell.

So I think collecting "hidden" flash drives is fun (like a watch flash drive and other ones) but I only know one site that has them...anyone know any really good unique hidden flash drives? What sites sell them?

Windows Media Player cannot play this DVD because there is a problem with digital copy protection between your DVD drive, decoder, and video card. Try installing an updated driver for your video card.
