    Incredible - must have accessories?

    I ordered the incredible last week so hopefully I'll have it in 2-3. I ordered a few extras so here is what I recommend. I got the extended battery. This really made a difference in my BB Storm and I heard the Incredible's stock 1300mah battery doesn't last that long. There is a 3500mah...

    What's your current mp3 player?

    Creative ZEN Vision:M 30GB that I got for my hs graduation in May 2006. Still got 8GB's left on it and it has great battery life and good sound so why replace it? If I do replace it it will be a Zune HD 64GB whenever they decide to release that size.

    PC Cloning

    I've used Acronis True Image Echo and it's great. Being able to make images of running systems is the best part about it. It has good compression as well.

    is torrent software safe?

    Same here, no problems running bittorrent 24/7 and I use it download tv shows from torrlog and other sites. Besides my crap upload speeds I have no problems. I run it on WHS and I have anitvirus running but none have had a virus so far.

    Rosetta Stone

    My friend had it to learn German and one night we started it up and went through a couple lessons out of boredom. I think it would work if you went through all the levels. I think I would give it a try.

    Best Portable Apps

    I use Firefox portable, and I like Evernote as well. I also have used ClamWin portable to scan things for viruses before putting them on my usb drive or to scan infected PCs.

    E6300 or E7400

    Yeah, I don't think you'll see too much of a difference with Windows 2000 and HW virtualization. I think the e7400 will benefit more from it being 1GHz faster than the e6300. Plus you are using a virtualization program that is running on top of an OS, not a hypervisor based one like ESX or...

    Upgrade to 1920x1200

    I have an E6600 as well and you can easily overclock it. I only put mine at 2.8GHz but it will go higher I just never tried. It handles Crysis Warhead just fine at 1680x1050 with a 4850 so I think you will be fine.

    Help with headless uTorrent box

    Well I do have WHS and I just made uTorrent as a service and use the webui so I never have to remote to it. I also forwarded the ports through my router so I can start downloads from anywhere. Besides backups WHS is a Windows Media Connect device so it works very nicely with my PS3 and Windows...

    Should I lap my HSF and CPU?

    I would lap it too. I remember lapping used to be more popular back in the Athlon XP days, I haven't heard much talk about it lately. Like the others have said, it's not difficult at all.

    5.25" DVD burner vs Slim burners

    Usually the slim drives are slower than the full size drives, so I would definitely go with the eSATA drive.

    Help - PSU died, has it fried the motherboard or CPU?!

    I would still think it is likely the mobo that is bad. The cpu rarely dies in my experiences. I had a PC that was on and the basement flooded and the computer was running with about 4 inches of water in it. The mobo oxidized but the cpu (P4 1.7GHz Williamette) was still good and I used it in...
