Agreed with other - IKEA Stolmen, PAX series, and even Broder make for great, no-need-to-find-studs options for homeowners and renters alike. Too bad the reviewer couldn't find them in the store

B&O all the way, love it.

I would have put the ports on the back though so I wouldn't have to look at things sticking out the top all the time. Of course with most things being wireless these days that would not be a real issue.


Can You Believe This Sleek Walnut-and-Aluminum PC Case is DIY?

Convenience is much more the draw to online vs bricks and mortar. For the most part, online sales allow you to research, compare and purchase much more effectively than big-box allows. Plus you don't have to deal with the sales people that try and feed you misinformation in order to make up for discounted prices. I went to a Best Buy for the first time in over a year last week and found nothing compelling about being there. The selection was bad and the service was worse.

Can I just say that seeing that photo of the Sports Walkman just filled me with so many longest-bus-ride-school-event-warmup-to-your-girl-cool-down-after-break-up-i-still-love-you moments that I am about to explode. I can smell the plastic and mildly alkaline memorex perfume and feel the rubberized button magic that is, was and always will be my sony sports walkman adolescents. Discmen never quite captured me the same way and mp3 players never quite feel like my own. There's something about having to peel open the caselogic treasure box, selecting that dubbed copy of G'N'F'N'R and having to actually ff through the songs you don't like that can never be duplicated. I miss you even though I can't remember what I did with you.

Better hope your local plumbing inspector doesn't read AT cause that faucet is already not to code, and the image with the faucet completely submerged might kill him/her. Hope you and your neighbors like body scrub residue in your tap water!

offensive, really? As a mid-thirties-going-to-be-bald guy I find this really funny. I find it even more funny that anyone could be offended by people bringing up baldness. It is only offensive if one is self-consioud about it and if one is that fragile, baldness is the least of their worries.
