Scott replied to turtle*'s topic in Deal Finder & Deal Discussion
Do you have to have speakers? What about using a decent set of headphones? -
This is definately the place to start looking for one... :)

On the contrary... I think this case would match my new Sony SXRD perfectly. -

That is just the way it is. The media is that color, and you can only make it lighter or darker. I think that that sort of gold colored media is the only available right now. Think of it as a black and white image, but in shades of gold... -
Ah... the price that one pays to collect smilies...

This would be a nice Chassis for a HTPC. I like the looks. -
What kind of products did you want to review?

Well... hopefully this doesn't get me banned. Here is a scan of the CD that I designed for the memorial DVD for my Grandparents. The scan really doesn't do it justice. http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f105/BAlGaInTl/testcd.jpg -

So far I've only used Memorex Lightscribe CDs and I lowered the burn speed to 12x for compatibility. I also did a DVD+RW at 4X no problem. However, that was the limit of my old media. I guess I don't really have any "new" media to test it with... all of my stuff is 8x DVD-R. I still have about a stack of 50 I need to go through before I buy new. :) -

You can actually "add" to a design and the drive is supposed to detect the orientation and continue on the same cd. So if you have an audio CD with lables for the song, you can add new songs later. I haven't tried this feature at all yet. I don't think it matters what order you do it in. The scribe process and data burning are completely separate. I even did them with completely different applications. So lets say that you have a buisness and you want to put your logo on CDs, but the content would be different... I'm pretty sure that you could do all of the scribing and then burn whatever data you need later. That would save you time when you actually need to produce the product. -

I didn't notice anything at all... I'm not sure why it would since there realy isn't any heat involved in the process. And the drive actually spins slower when etching the face. -

I downloaded the latestest software from http://www.lightscribe.com last night and too it for a spin. I must say, although the images are not the highest quality, I'm quite impressed at the overall resuts. It took about 18-20 minutes to scribe a fairly detailed Disc in "best" quality. I think that they have done a lot to speed up the process. I'm at work now, but I will do a scan of an actual disc that I scribed and post it later tonight. Of course, the burning capability of the drive is great as well. One of the best out there. -
That could be interesting. I would consider making it a limited access forum much like the lounge is however. It should definately be "Off Topic" since this is primarily a deals site and not a review site. I think that if it were public, it might just encourage spammers just that much more to create accounts and post bogus reviews. On second thought, maybe not... there are tons of review sites out there already... hmmm... I'm going back and forth in my mind on this one. :)

Just out of curriosity... How does one justify $98 in shipping by USPS ? I see this over and over with cell phones. How does e-bay determine if shipping is "reasonable?" example: http://cgi.ebay.com/New-Motorola-L7-Unlocked-Quad-Band-GSM-Bluetooth-SLVR_W0QQitemZ9744448983QQihZ008QQcategoryZ64355QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

This is a highly rated drive. I just recently ordered one. I will be testing out the lightscribe feature soon. -
Interesting... I don't really see any really slow hops. *perplexed*

You need to do a Traceroute the gottadeal server and post your results here. The GD site is 72.34.47.72 I will see if I can find a free application do do this for you tonight when I get home. Then, you should be able to locate the problem.
