Here is why I am installing the XBOX 360 wireless controller for PC . So my HTPC is also a gaming rig… and well I am so use to playing games with my Xbox 360 wireless controller. I’ve seen the receiver online for about 30 bucks and that is way too expensive for me. I decided to do what I normally do in times like this. I try to find a deal on eBay. I found this guy selling them at http://myworld.ebay.com/traders-gallery for about 10-12 bucks.

Laptop Replacement Screens…Here is how the story goes….
My Grandma in Law had a laptop.
One day the laptop was placed on the dinning room chair. Unknowingly, one of her children sat in the chair, right on top of the laptop. They heard a pop and crack sound. They tried to power on the laptop but the screen was displaying pretty colors behind a spider webbed cracked screen.
Later on I received a call. They were wondering if I could replace the screen. I did some research and found a fairly cheap screen online with a 3 year warranty. I figured why not, it’s affordable and if this website is a hoax then I’m out only a couple of bucks. So I chanced it and bought it. I had to wait only a week and I got it… well actually I ordered it on Sunday and the following Friday it was at my front door.
Took me about 10 minutes, and this was the first time I have ever replaced a laptop screen. I felt pretty proud. Better yet the thing turned on and looks better than before.
So if you ever need to replace a screen and you don’t mind doing it yourself. I would suggest that you at least check out http://www.laptopscreen.com

I’ve always wondered how circuit boards were made. I decided to research and came up with this method. I have tried many chemicals and tons of exposure times when I started etching PCB.
