Lowered prices before I move over to ebay.

Appreciate the head's up. Will handle with kid's gloves when I remove the interface. I'd be interested to hear how customer support answers you. This will be my first Meta device and my first dealing with Meta, and I do wonder how supporting their customer support is.

Guess we're in the category of great minds think alike. I was, indeed, going to go with the 128GB, but after XenIneX mentioned a few posts above about a 30GB OS, I got really antsy thinking about how quickly storage will fill up and having to juggle titles around. I went with the 512. Ordered...

Thanks all for your comments. Placed my order today. Looks like it won't ship until the end of the month, but that will give me enough time to build up anticipation. I've got a post in the FS forum for my Index, if anyone is interested.

You've sold me for sure. Previously, once I had the Index in hand...and installed various aftermarket components to make it as comfortable as possible...I just settled down with it and stopped following VR products and news. In fact, I still might have stuck with my Index but for the fact that...

SOLD ON EBAY I am the original—and only—owner of this Valve Index. Other than for the right Knuckles controller, it works perfectly. The right controller needs a battery; this is not user changeable, at least not for the average person (although there are youtube vids on how to do this). Being...

Super explanations. You've helped clarify some of my fuzzy perceptions; many thanks. The more I hear of the Quest 3, the more I want it. Hopefully, parting out and selling my Index--minus the bad right controller--will help to fund it. It sounds like you have a Metaquest, so can I ask of the...

Original Index owner. The right controller is no longer usable, and I'm not ready/willing/able to replace the battery. The question is whether to buy a new set of controllers or upgrade to a newer technology wireless device. The pancake lenses on the Quest 3 have really intrigued me--along with...

Nova Air C 7.8" color e-ink reader/tablet. Excellent condition; rarely used. Comes with the original silver protective cover as well as an additional cover I purchased separately ($50 value). Comes with pen and extra nibs. Paypal $325 shipped.

You know, the surge protector advice is an excellent suggestion. I wouldn't have thought of it. Will go to Amazon right now and order one. For anyone interested, I wrote up a treatise of my 4 laptop picks for him to consider--two with a discrete video card and two without--and he felt most...

I gotta say I love the Surface devices. I own two Surface Pros and a Surface Go myself. I do plan on presenting the Surface Laptop as an option to him (I don't like the feel of the detachable Pro keyboards myself, and I am a very fast touch typist, but the laptop keyboards are decent; and I...

He'll be majoring in biology/science. From what I'm hearing, I'm thinking I should aim more toward this laptop being a combination entertainment lifeline and mini-workstation. So with that in mind, I'm thinking I'll present him with a few options but will suggest my overall pick as the XPS 15...

He'll be in a dorm, sharing a tiny room, but he will have a small desk. Setting up an external monitor and possibly external GPU is really not an option at this stage of the game. So just really looking to get him a relatively reliable laptop with everything he needs and nothing he doesn't. Do...

I'm planning on buying my grandson a laptop this month for him to take to his first year of college in the fall. Like me, he is more a desktop person, so when I try to get his preference on things, he just doesn't know and doesn't really have an opinion. So I've been doing some research and was...

That is interesting information. I've started to see mention of this recently when researching what the heck I should do. I've ordered the Arris S33, and that should show up in a day or two. I think it's maybe a good thing--for me, anyway--that this particular Arris doesn't have a lot of...

Motorola advised me to return the modem! That said, they did state that the power level of the upstream bonded channel is out of range. I will be returning this modem for refund. If I buy another modem (non-Motorola), might I still have issues due to that out-of-range power level? Or might...

I think I'm probably driving myself crazy with this stuff. The DS light flashing just sent me off on a wild goose chase. As long as the light remains solid--and it's solid right now-- think I'll just let it be. As an aside, I did notice that after I finished playing an online VR game the DS...

I had called the ISP (Cox) and the tech said everything looked fine on their end. My speedtest score was good. It was then suggested to me about being sure to reboot the router as well as the modem, which I had neglected to do, and doing that seemed to correct the issue. But only for a few days...

FWIW, the DS light started flashing again yesterday, corrected/uncorrected numbers started showing again in the status columns, and my router (Amplifi Alien with LCD readout) showed network spikes. I honestly don't know if it's the modem (I rue not returning it when I could; I'm 3 days past my...

I am hopeful this is resolved...I had previously neglected to also reboot the router when I rebooted the modem. I just did so; and while, of course, the light no longer flashes, when I checked the status on the modem, all those "uncorrected errors" are now at zero. I hope I was the cause of my...

The manual says blinking blue downstream light means "negotiating bonded channel," with solid blue "bonded with 2 or more channels." It should be solid; I don't understand why it is indeed solid for a few days and then goes back to blinking, requiring a reboot to go solid again. I didn't know...

Activated a new Motorola MB8611 (docsis 3.1) about three weeks ago. Seems to work fine, although I noticed the blue downstream light will start blinking rather than remain solid every few days. It doesn't affect internet connectivity; I can still connect, still stream, still game. But it will...

Might not be your issue, but whenever I want to put files on my husband's Fire, after connecting with USB I also--every time--have to go into USB settings on the Fire itself and tell it I want to use it as a media device. The default action when connecting with USB is to charge it. Once I...

Lenovo is a very nice machine. My husband uses a Lenovo and it's been solid for him...although he admittedly is not a gamer.

SOLD! Purchased this only a few months back from an [H] forum member, but I unexpectedly obtained a new desktop with a 3080 at the same time and find I never use the laptop. As it seems a bit of overkill to use this gaming laptop just to browse the web, thought I'd pass it along to another...

I had bought from Widmo for my Vive. I bought from VR Optician for my Index. Either option doesn't interfere at all with any and all third-party cushion upgrades. I'm also using the Studioform Index Enthusiast Kit (the straps and weight balancing), which is awesome. I gotta think either lens...

I had run some stress testing initially with Prime 95 and FurMark running together, and everything ran fine (one of the reasons why I was so hesitant initially to jump on the PS failure bandwagon)...there were no restarts/reboots and temps were acceptable. So hopefully Seasonic will get this...

Asus Sabertooth Z97 Mark 2. Gad, I hope it's not the motherboard! Had all my sights on the power supply. Since writing the above, after working fine for a few days, the desktop just shut itself off while I was doing something, so I initiated a warranty PS replacement with Seasonic. I sent...

My desktop computer has a Seasonic X-850-KM3 that is 5 years old. Last week, the computer wouldn't boot; nothing happened when I pressed the on switch. Using the 30-second discharge tip, it came on and ran just fine. I ran a number of stress tests, and all ran perfectly, good temps, no...

Final post bump

Weekend bump!

UPDATE; Filco and Northgate sold to SamirD Ducky sold to Sabrewolf732 Ducky Shine 7 mechanical keyboard with Cherry MX Silent Red switches, RGB, LED, complete with box, manual, and extra keycaps. Got this for hubby before Christmas but he never took a shine (sorry) to it; too complicated for...

I normally wear trifocals and have been using VR for years...since the original Vive. The trifocals were a little uncomfortable under the Vive--and later, the Index--headsets, but they worked just fine. I couldn't play for very long only because the tightness of the headset (combined with the...

TTT...rather sell it here than ebay!

Am selling my Vive, which comes complete with headset and linkbox, two lighthouses, mounting hardware, wand controllers and chargers, and the Deluxe Audio Strap with padded VR Cover memory foam. This is the original Vive, so I've had it since the summer of 2016. It has seen relatively light...

I put on the Index headset just intending to check on something....and 90 minutes later I had to force myself to stop playing. This is pretty unheard of for me. I've never been able to play that long at one sitting. But I wanted to clarify about the black levels. I am actually indeed seeing...
