    Stupid Cutler. Hanie actually looked alright when he came in in the 4th quarter against the Packers in the NFC Championship last year.

    Yes, it's comfortable. The cushions are still a bit stiff. I sat in a floor model at Room and Board that was broken in and it was more comfortable. I will just need to spend a lot of time sitting here to break it in.

    Shaving solutions, or, what do Gilette and all those companies do with all their $?

    I shave with the beard trimmer on the back of a Braun razor a couple times a week. Shaving close makes me break out.

    Annoyance of the day - ATM charge for usage

    My only debt is my mortgage. My wife has student loan debt, but it's all at very low interest rates. I always pay off my credit cards every month.

    question PC may have died-need some feedback on MB/CPU/RAM

    Is there a reason you need 16GB of RAM? I would think that 8GB would be plenty for what I would guess you use the system for. I do Java development on a laptop with 8GB of RAM. This includes running Eclipse, a DB server, a Java application Server, as well as a variety of office applications and...

    Not that anyone here cares, but the rpm didn't work in OpenSuse. I downloaded the tar.gz and moved the file myself. This worked perfectly.

    Non-widescreen LCD

    I like working on two monitors, but I am not set on it. I think I'd rather have smaller pixels. The Dell Ultrasharp U2711 does look quite nice, but I don't think I can spend that much right now. I think I might just settle for one Dell Ultrasharp U2412M and if I decide it's not enough workspace...

    Non-widescreen LCD

    I'm looking to buy two non-widescreen LCDs. My desk is rather small so 19" is probably the largest I can fit comfortably. I'd like to get something decent with an IPS panel and LED backlight, but I don't know if anyone makes something like this. Any recommendations?
