That's f****d up, posting the answer. Although, he's completely guessing on the model numbers. Thank god I had everything else done, or I'd *really* be pissed off.
That makes complete sense. The barebones are there for people to experiment with and customize. Asus wouldn't and couldn't cover all the crazy stuff people do with barebones computers.
I am really impressed with Asus' move here. ...
Honestly, I wouldn't worry about the TC. 256mb is more than enough for 99% of games available today. All it really affects is how many and what size textures can be pre-loaded into VRAM.

2. Zepto 6224/6324 - available now, but has to be imported from Europe (they have...
Best option is to call them and see if they can give you a straight answer. I haven't ordered a T61 over the weekend, but I've had issues with using 2 coupons for the same order before. A lot of times, the coupons have fine print that...
Maybe it's just me, but I don't understand what you mean by your comment. For one thing, it's Lenovo that's charging what they want for their laptop. Second, I'm quite sure that Lenovo's don't have swappable GPUs.
The whole reason...
Sounds like a minor incompatibility or driver conflict. Did you install Vista fresh or upgrade from XP? Also, go to Control Panel -> System -> Hardware -> Device Manager and make sure you don't have any errors or unidentified...
