Newbie Welcome Area / Newbie saying hello!

« on: 08 January 2010, 10:54:44 »

Hello,

I've been lurking for some time and finally decided to sign up. I just wanted to say howdy to all on the board.

Lots of good reading here. I hope I can give a little back.

General Car Chat / Anyone buy a Toyota Camry 2009 recently?

« on: 12 January 2010, 10:01:58 »

I haven't bought a new car in like seven years. Anyone buy a Toyota Camry 2009 recently? How did you go about negotiating a good deal? In the past, I would give the dealer a drive out price that I wanted and go from there. What about interest rates and rebates now-a-days? I am also thinking about getting a Honda Accord, but it seems like they don't advertise for 0.0% financing. In the past, Honda didn't seem to be flexible in negotiating also, not sure about now-a-days.Thanks.

General Discussion Area / How to calibrate a notebook LCD?

« on: 11 January 2010, 10:34:01 »

I had to get a new laptop and the screen doesn't look right. I have no knowledge on calibrating a LED LCD, or any other monitor for that matter. So, before I mess anything up I would like to know if anyone has done this before and if it's reversible?
I have a laptop with a 17.3" HD + LED LCD display running Windows 7. Generic PnP Monitor on Mobile Intel® 4 Series Express Chipset. I can get to the calibrate display settings but kind of don't want to mess anything up.
My photo's look very different on other monitors. I don't want to post washed out looking photos that I have taken the time to edit. Any advice or information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
