HDMI-cable-Utah-discount

You've just gone to the big box store hoping for the best buy, but it was far from it. "Are you kidding me" you say to yourself? "$100 for an HDMI cable? Do you want my head to explode?" Luckily there is a local company in Orem, Utah that sells discounted HDMI cables. Whatacable.com has a huge selection and deep inventory of HDMI cables. So you're wondering, "Are these like a horrible quality that will make my HDTV look bad?" Well NO! These are the latest specification, currently HDMI 1.4V that is rated high speed, for 3D TV and Ethernet. So get on down to their location or order online! They are open Monday through Friday 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM. You'll be happy you discovered them. They have tons of audio and video cables, computer cables, networking accessories, and Apple related products. They can be found online, but it's even better to visit their showroom and see all the products.

Until next time

So you're an IT manager or system admin for your company and you need a network cable, or maybe 100 ethernet patch cords, and you really could use them today, or at least by tomorrow. Where do you turn if you are in Orem, Provo, or Salt Lake City, Utah? Hopefully you don't run down to the big box store and pay full retail. I would suggest you take a look at www.whatacable.com They offer deeply discounted, or wholesale prices, to companies nationwide and they just happen to be located in Orem, Utah! That means Monday through Friday, 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM you can actually run down to their showroom and pick up the cables you need. Or order online or call an order in and have them delivered either the same day or the next day. They have small minimums for free freight! That's my advice!

1080p-is-the-answer-PC-use-tv-as-monitor

I have been using a 23" monitor with my 13" Macbook Pro for a couple of years. I'd expect more than two years life out of a monitor, but yesterday it stopped working and smoke started coming out of the top. I'm no monitor expert, but from my experience with electronics, this means it's toast.

So I find myself yet again at Best Buy browsing through the sorry selection of monitors. 23" is the max. So I think to myself, "I've got HDMI (thanks to the HDMI to mini display port adapter, which can be found at whatacable.com) why not check out the TVs and see if I could just use a TV as a huge monitor which would be great for looking at CAD drawings, Adobe Illustrator, etc. I found a great deal on a 32" LCD TV from a major brand that I trust and head back to the office where I spend the next 24 hours trying to get the resolution correct. I just couldn't get small text to look good. It was way too blurry to read email or read MS Word documents. I was searching for tips, messing with settings on both the computer and TV, but no magic solution. I even tried hooking it up via mini display port to VGA and in to the VGA port on the TV. No luck. I also tried hooking my desktop PC to see if it was an Apple issue. Nope. Same blurry text. Video looked amazing.

So begrudgingly I took the TV back. I hate returning items. As a small business owner I feel for manufacturers who have to take back merchandise. But at the end of the day, it wasn't working and I'd spent a pretty penny for a "monitor" that looked worse than my 23" monitor. So I brought my laptop to Best Buy and started plugging it in to different TVs. They all were blurry! I decided that I was going to go back to the 23" when it hit me. These were all 720p. Would a 1080p make a difference? I found a beautiful 1080p 32" TV and plugged in the HDMI cable. Bingo! Very clear. Not crystal clear, but a spectacular improvement. I told the salesman, "I'll take it.". I took it back to the office and problem solved. The answer did not lie in the settings of the computer or TV. 1080p was the answer.

So you just purchased the fancy iPad. (I've had mine for about 4 days). Maybe you waited for the 3G version. (I did, though WiFi has been great so far). You went to the Apple store (I went to a local University Bookstore). You convince yourself that this is going to be awesome and you pull out the credit card spending somewhere between $499 to $829 depending on the model. (I went with the 3G 32GB.) Then you realize there is no case included. You look at your options at the store, and leave without spending another $50 for an over-priced case. But, you're worried. You don't want that shiny new iPad bouncing around in your back pack. You need some protection. So you hop online and do a quick search. Up comes an ad for WhataCable! They are offering a nice looking iPad case for only $9.99. That seems like a screaming deal. You click and order. It ships the same day and arrives within a short time later. You rejoice at the sleek good looking case that now protects your iPad. As you watch videos, play games, and browse the Internet, you love your iPad (it really is amazing and I love it). You love it even more when you put in the case you purchased from WhataCable! and throw it in your backpack knowing it is well protected.

Well now you see how great it would be, you can order it here: http://www.whatacable.com/ipad-case-black-soft-fitting-portfolio-style-case-zipper-black-neoprene.aspx

Don't pay too much for a case!
