Teflon mouse feet.

I kid you not.  Why buy a new mouse when you can breathe new life into an old one.

I noticed that my Sidewinder X8 mouse was becoming more difficult to drag across
the Razer Destructor pad that has served me so beautifully since I got it.

I came across these by chance from an Amazon recommendation...

http://www.amazon.com/CS-Hyde-Extended-Mouse-Diameter/dp/B003DZ16XE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1306552768&sr=8-1


I said 'why not' and decided to try some.

I tell you...my mouse glides across this here pad like an air-hockey puck.
The slickness of the movement is UNBELIEVABLE.  WAY better than even
the (then) top-of-the-line Logitech G7 I once had.

I actually have to 'retrain' my hand because of the radical change in speed.

If you need to bring back a mouse you'd rather not part with...THIS IS WHAT YOU NEED!!!


Thank you Amazon recommendations.  :icon_thumright:

Used Cowon S9 from ebay

Cause i couldnt get the j3 but still wanted the legendary Sound Quality of Cowon players.

LOVING IT!!! i cant believe this thing can output bass like that!
Truely outclasses the ipod and iphone in every way in audio playback.

Plays FLAC and Ogg and the other lossless formats.
Yet another way it outclasses iphail.

SIIG USB 2.0 4-PORT Bay Hub Black for US$27

http://www.siig.com/it-products/usb/bay-hubs/hi-speed-usb-4-port-bay-hub-black.html

...to add 4 more ports to the front of my PC and fill in the black space where the floppy drive used to be. Now I have 15 USB ports on my PC! (incl 2 USB 3.0 ports)


WD Caviar Black 500GB for US$60 on Amazon
...To gain more performance and replace the Caviar Blue, which will be put of for sale very soon. See how much - or how little - difference a SATA 6Gbps interface gives...


2 of refurbished D-Link 7dBi omni-directional wifi antenna for US$10 or so (brand new is nearly US$40!)
...One used to boost wifi around the house. The second will be sold.
God is dead.

amm, why @ raptor? and not SSD??

UFC 2009 was alright. Played the PS3 ver a bit. Not Tekken but its a decent enough entry into the fighting game arena. Can't go wrong at that price at all.


Will spring for UFC 2010 some time this year.

Can't wait for the UFC kinect game though.

Turtle Beach PX5



It's wireless.
7.1 Dolby surround.
Mic chat on PS3/Xbox/PC via bluetooth (can connect to 2 devices simultaneously)
Wicked sound presets.
Analog and digital inputs.

Did I say wireless?

Officially broke it in last night.  Fantastic piece of kit.
Worth every penny of the substantial asking price.


Of course the Tritton AX720 has been officially replaced. :)

Price has dropped BIG time from $250 US on Amazon, which is where I got mine.
Didn't quite pay that for it though.

As for the AX720...it's back in its box....  :happy0203:
