Re: best cheap/free scores 1.1
Unexpected score:
$10- Pioneer FH-X70BT 2 Din Head unit. Works great. Nice upgrade to the "technically nicer" 1 Din JVC that was in my wife's van... that one had no working FM, but I think that...

Re: best cheap/free scores 1.1
My church has a similar one in the AV booth (Sony DV pro grade video camera)... but the DV head is wiped out (couldn't record to tape). Still usable though via a long firewire cable and an old...

Re: best cheap/free scores 1.1
From yesterday:
- 5x Toner and 2x drums for my Brother HL-2270DW ($5 per, $35 for all). 3rd party... but at the price I don't care. Doubt I'll ever need toner or drums for it ever again; it's my...

Re: best cheap/free scores 1.1
Ended up using it to retire a less than useful Laserjet 4L (which I was using with a Jetdirect 500x)... Dimensionally it's close enough to the 4L that it happens to fit on the bottom of my garage...

Re: best cheap/free scores 1.1
Yep. Other than being slow and only having 150 pages, nothing wrong with it. Full toners, heck the tray was half full of paper :wtf:
Worst part is if it's at the outlet, that means a regular...

Re: best cheap/free scores 1.1
Scored a cartload of stuff at Goodwill Outlet for $21... Which included a HP Laserjet Pro CP1525nw Color. Works great and had 4 full 3rd part toner cartridges.
As soon as I give one away another...

Re: best cheap/free scores 1.1
My last laptop to use unifying was the E6430... my last one with mini-PCIe slots that could be adapted to internal USB dongles. Such an adapter doesn't exist for m.2 AFAIK so my thinkpads have all...

Re: best cheap/free scores 1.1
Scored a Logitech Performance MX mouse for $0.99. Paired it to a spare unifying reciever I had sitting, works great... but the jury's out on the battery (rechargable AA NiMH, easy to replace).

Re: Why does my truck have a microphone in it?
Looks like a really crappy dealer-installed "security" device. Idea being that interfaces with the ignition switch wiring and you have to have the black plug installed for it to start. But, these...

Re: best cheap/free scores 1.1
Found an Open Box OEM battery for $42 shipped... Easy peasy. Yes I made sure it's the right one (this laptop has two internal batteries). Sucks that I had to spend more dough, but at least I'll have...

Laptop came in. Good news: it runs well... and is in pretty good shape (one scuffed case corner, a few light lid scratches, otherwise purdy). None of the screen issues mentioned in the listing are...
