    $4 and works perfect. There is also some cool other keyboards it supports. I now have a 'Plex' tablet haha.

    I got a logitech harmony remote but I have to get an adapter to hook up to the mini.

    I just use my PS3 these days. I did have XBMC (KODI) for a while. I was tired of the plug-ins breaking.

    Anyone have a good site to look at start building a PC?
    Considering going back to a desktop but I would like to get one that has the capability to run semi decent graphics on it (last few computers have crashed or burned out the fans due to one external monitor).

    Ideally, looking to run a 3-4 monitor setup with the build.

    DIY :)

    Find the board, proc,gpu and other internals that are important to you and start hunting for low prices.
    Newegg, Amazon and even some of the big box stores. Xmas is approaching, take advantage

    If you're somewhat new with the parts of computer and how they all work, this site made it easy for me to understand. It gives price as well as compatibility.

    If I can find some time I might go.

    I've been wanting to get some people together and play D&D's. But just can't get enough people with imaginations to play.

    Ok that's cool he has his old stuff. I don't have anything from when I played as a kid. My buddy Corey plays some new version of it and it seems neat.

    All we played was D&D first edition. It was my friends dad's game set and we just started using it.
