    Mascara issue....please help?!?


    Bored Asked: I just bought maybelline define-a-lash and I love it. It coats my lashes and seperates them and is great for everyday looks. But I want something that really makes my lashes pop. I already have super long lashes and my old mascara, when applied correctly on certain days would make my lashes look amazing. However I hated my old mascara because it was always clumping my lashes together. Now, I want a volumizing mascara and I have 3-4 choices.1. Maybelline Colassal Volum' Express- Cost? Does it Clump? How Does it compare to the others below?2. L'Oreal Voluminous-I believe one of my professors has this and her lashes look amazing...but again. Cost? Clumpiness? Comparisons?3. Maybelline Define-A-Lash Volumizing (the pink one)-Does this really volumize? I have the green kind and im not sure if this is much different or what the deal is with this. Cost? Comparisons? Clumpiness?---------------------------------------------------------------------4. CoverGirl Lash Blast- My friend has this and her lashes aren't even as thick as mine and hers look like she used some $2 mascara. I tried her Mascara once and it didn't do much for me. But I have heard great reviews on it and it seems to work for others but idk...Here is my ultimate volumizing mascara choice:Does not clump. Volumizes my lashes and makes them look dramatic yet not freakish, costs under $9 and works amazingly.Please give me your reviews on the top 3 (4) products I have supplied and give me your honest opinions and which mascara fits my needs most accordingly.Thank You!

    Which water filtration vacuum is the most effective subtitute to Rainbow?


    Misty Asked: I am sold on the water filtration system for vacuums. I would never want air being moved around esp now that my son was diagnosed with asthma. However, Rainbow is way too expensive! So I am on the look out for the most effective alternative. Here are the top 3:Shark CW240- $141.51 at Amazon and other websites. Pretty good reviews, but no hepa filter. But again, my priority is that it works on a water filtration system. Frontgate Water Filtration Hydro Vacuum- $299, has hepa filter and more, but only available at their website. No reviews available, but product sounds good. Thanes H20 Vac-$199, has hepa filter for an added amt of money as well as other crucial parts of a vacuum (suction head for crevices)! I don't really like scammy marketing strategies like that. Available reviews are only at their website. So which one do you think is most practical and effective?

    Twinboymom22 Replied: I hate to say it, but Rainbow is the best. I wouldnt chose any of those. I used to work for Rainbow. And every house I went to, I showed up their vaccum cleaner and proved theirs didnt work right. And not once has anyone proved Rainbow wrong. I dont know if you talked to an associate or not. But you can make monthly payments as low as 75 dollars for the Rainbow. It is pricey, but it is worth your money.

    dvskv Replied: Many of your choices are outdated/obsolete with Pentium M chip and only 512MB RAM and you might not be happy when you press the power button. There are better IT sources than Tiger Direct like DELL OUTLET and newegg etc. In my opinion, you can't go wrong and I recommend Dell! There are hidden long-run costs that one does not initially see when you purchase a Notebook PC other than Dell, HP or IBM and later encounter difficulties or attempt buying replacement parts like a battery, or say a keyboard etc.We own 3 Dell Notebook PCs and why I recommend DELL, HP or IBM for those living in the United States is that those 3 particular PC Notebook manufacturers literally supply all the business Notebook PCs to the major corporations and Government so replacement parts are readily available esp on EBAY at even a more reasonable price than the manufacturer website. Thus in the long run, being able to get the exact replacement part extends the life on your investment.FYI my 1st Notebook PC was Gateway bec I couldn't afford Dell at the time and what a mistake is was when I needed to purchase a new Notebook battery <= costly bec not readily available like Dells... and FYI I also ran into a similar problem when attempting to upgrade the memory.Note if you are looking for DELL bargains, then visit their DELL OUTLET site...Hope the Above Info Helps!

    Will there be DRM/SecuRom on The Sims 3 or not? ?


    Ricardo Asked: I heard SPORE had DRM/SecuRom on it. I was pretty upset. I wanted the game but it only allows you to install 3 times on any PC. So if I want to upgrade my computer, I have to install again so that's 2 installs lefts or if I want to get a new computer, that's 1 install left. There are many other reasons why people re-install it. Anyways, so, I'm not getting it.Anyways, I'm sure EA & game companies read all the complaints & gamers dislike it so much. They game SPORE which has SecuRom has been given 1-star ratings on AMAZON.COM http://www.amazon.com/review/product/B000FKBCX4/ref=dp_top_cm_cr_acr_pop_hist_all?%5Fencoding=UTF8&showViewpoints=1 by alot of people.Will there be SecuRom/DRM on the upcoming game called The Sims 3 or not? Are these people http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=ouH0G6-wK9g going to put DRM/SecuRom on The Sims 3?To play Spore, it requires an internet, I guess. I am getting a computer & only for games. So, I don't want The sims 3 to require internet for it. I am NOT getting the internet. What about the people who don't have internet, they want to play but they don't have internet. Do the makers of The Sims 3 know that & will not put an internet requirement?Can't EA do somethin else, like, add copy-protection to CDs?I want to be able to install the games as much as you like.

    perfectvelvet Replied: If you read these forums, you'll understand the reason why EA feels compelled to include DRM and SecuROM on their games: too much piracy! I can check two pages of questions in this category and always find something about someone wanting free this or hacked that. It's ridiculous. While I don't like the things EA has elected to use to protect their own copyright, I fully support their reasoning. Until we can eliminate the thinking that you deserve something for nothing, we will be stuck with DRM and SecuROM issues.I know there is a lot of controversy over SecuROM on the Sims 2 forums. I personally have never had a problem with it. Everything still works as intended, and I own all of the Sims 2 expansion packs and stuff packs.I am sure there will be some type of DRM on Sims 3. Whether that's SecuROM or whether EA finds a different company, I don't know. But guaranteed they will do something to protect their copyright. I have no problem with the 3 install limit; I never uninstall and reinstall a game unless I have to (either my hard drive crashes or I buy a new computer). People who habitually uninstall and reinstall games because they decide not to play them anymore don't make sense to me; I have a 500 GB hard drive, and I can't imagine ever running out of space.FYI, Spore no longer requires the Internet, unless you want to download custom content. Originally, they were going to have your game connect itself to the Internet to prove it was a legal copy, but they eliminated that for people who couldn't connect to the Internet all the time, like members of the armed forces. Thus I assume Sims 3 will not require the Internet either; Sims 2 doesn't, and it's still hard to copyright (most of the time, it's people sharing their install codes and downloading no-CD hacks).Long post, for which I apologize, but the bottom line is consumers are the reason for DRM. Perhaps they should increase punishment for piracy; that might help put an end to it and the necessity for DRM. But I do hope they eliminate SecuROM as it sounds like a very shady program.


    Which headphones should I buy?


    TJ Asked: I want to buy new headphones because the stock ones broke and the ones I was using now broke as well. I think I am going to buy one of the following headphones but I just don't know which ones to pick. From the reviews I read, all of them said positive things about them so I don't know how to pick. Tell me which ones you would pick. I'm only looking for EARBUDS that cost no more than $30. If you have, or know of, headphones that you would recommend, please, put that in your answer as well.

    What Do You Think of My Idea for water cooling?


    ka9inerjc Asked: I was thinking about building a Gaming PC before I leave for College. I decided to use water cooling. I know there are only a few advantages and that some air cooling solutions are better but I will stick with my decision. I'm going to get one of the top selling, most reviewed products from newegg.com and change a few things aroung here and there. I was going to buy a super small USB mini fridge or make my own (very simple) mount it in my case and place my water reservoir in it to keep the liquid under 9 celcius or 48 farhenheit. Here Are the Step I was Goin to Take.1. Find or make my own water reservoir that will fit in the small fridge.2. Drill holes in the top or back of the fridge small enough for the tubing to fit thru with a snug fit.3. Cover the tubing and heatsinks with insulation to stop condensation from shorting out my hardware.4. Get a USB to AC adapter so I can leave the fridge on at all times. Do you think it will work? Do you think the air coming from the fridge will warm up my case so much that there will be no point in doing this? What other precautions should I take? Are their any solutions out there that already do this?

    PhonicUK Replied: Really really silly...A tiny little USB fridge won't deliver anywhere near enough cooling for a liquid cooling system. (5W of power to offset up to 85W of thermal output?!)If you've not built a liquid cooling system before, *READ* and research what's needed, then start off with a pre-assembled kit before you start trying to rig up reservoirs and radiators yourself. Understanding the physics involved is also a must.
