Check out that Belkin KVM. Sweet looking thing.
 
Also the Enermax PSU. Currently have a 530 or 550 forget which but I'm hoping to quiet down my PC.
 
Also the WAP11's KICK ASS. Finally got my WAP11 talking to my Wireless BEFS (OVER WIRELESS) router a cpuple of days ago. Woohoo!

Anyone got any idea if they're gonna do an AIW version of the 9700, & if so, any clue on when?

i bought a 15k ibm scsi drive
and reinstalled xp
 
i found out sunthin...
installing xp with 2 xeons then activating the hyperthread works and is ok.
but it works so much better to install after hyperthreading.

Which KVM is it? I have a couple of the USB/PS2 versions which are nice, but sometimes don't like certain systems. I have to use PS/2 cables for my mouse and keyboard instead of USB on my main workstation, whereas my older Dell box (running RH 7.3) can use the single USB cable. Kind of a bummer...

Monitor died, and being out of warranty, I needed a new one.
 
Dell 17" Trinitron flat-screen. It's used, but it's a steal @ $85.

Hey DF, which KVM model is it? Also, what kind of range do you get on your WAP? Does it support 128bit encryption?

Belkin OmniView SOHO Series 4-Port KVM Switch with Audio PS/2 Platform - RETAIL BOX
 
http://www.belkin.com/
 

 

 
Linksys WAP11 Instant Wireless Network Access Point
 
http://www.linksys.com/
 

 

 
WAP 11 SPECS
 
http://www.linksys.com/products/product.asp?grid=22&prid=429
 

Quote:Provides Wireless Access Point or Bridging MAC Filtering, and DHCP Client
Adjustable Antennas Provide for Easy Physical Configuration
Long Operating Range up to 1150 feet Outdoors
Easy to Use Web Browser-Based Configuration
Up to 256-bit WEP Security
 
The v2.2 is alot better than the old vers. V2.2 is HTTP managed like the BEFS over the Ether port on the back. The older vers were managed by a USB cable and SNMP.
 
Also v2.2 is 100mw instead of needing the hack like the older vers to pump it up that high and it supports bridging to other WAPP11's and finally it recognizes the BEFS as an AP Server so my WAP11 can be an AP Client FINALLY! WOOHOO!!
 
I already have a WAP11 just want to experiment with 2 WAP11's off of one BEFS Router and experiment with different routes over wireless.

Heh, ignore that USB connection on the back. V2.2 doesn't have it.

Definatly sweet.

I run 1600x1200x2 now and I get frustrated at work with a 19"

So efficient for power users, and even for regular users it provides more flexibility. Plus - from what I have heard - chicks dig it 8)

Yeah, I have 2 of those Belkin units, but with USB and PS/2. They are a lot better with high resolution/refresh rate than KVMs used to be.
 
The WAP looks cool, and I am thinking of getting one for home to use with my iPAQ. Toys rock.
