At my work we have an ancient yet expensive inventory counter, the only problem is, the connecting serial cord I'm looking for has the larger serial port connector on both ends. I've looked every where and the only thing I can find is the serial port end with a usb or a big serial port to a small one. Does anyone know where I can find a large double sided?? Thanks

Can I upgrade the CPU in my nearly 3 year old Dell Dimension 3000. I have an Intel Celeron 2.4 processor in it. It also has a gig of ram, and a 7200rpm hard drive. Was wondering if i could upgrade it myself? I am very mechanical and good with stuff like this, i just never have done anything this serious to my computer before. The reason I asked, is that I recently purchased a game that takes a 2.6 gigahertz processor, and I didn't realize it till I got it home and installed it and tried to play it. I don't want to buy a new computer if i can help it because i like this computer and its been a great computer for me.

HP reccomends that on a laptop with 4GB RAM, that Vista 64-bit should be used opposed to 32-bit as you will get more performance out of the 64-bit OS. Why is this? And for $160.00 extra is it worth it to upgrade to 64-bit? There are still some drive issues with different software, I know, but is it a good idea to get the 64-bit?

Well, I really need a laptop for many numerous things. I will be going to college soon so I need a laptop that would be good for a student. I like music, and watching DVDs/playing games would be awesome (but this is mostly for school work). If it had a webcam it would be great! I want it to have a pretty long battery life and wireless internet. That is the most important part. For prices I think anything over $2,000 is too much? What should I look for! Help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Why are there so many different colored Ethernet cables? I see some in black, red, silver, blue, etc. Is the color only for decoration, or do the colors mean something? If so, what?

Well I'm going to buy a new power supply for my Dell XPS 410 because I'm buying a new graphics card and it requires a bigger power supply. Right now, I have a 375W power supply and I'm planning to buy a 700W one, but I'm worrying that the 700W power supply will not be able to physically fit into my computer case. I've read that as long as something like the letters "ATX" show up for the power supply, then I needn't worry but I still want to double check. Can someone please tell me if the power supplies are in fact the same physical size?
