Microwave 800W
Grill 900W

That's not much would you say but it has special techniques/settings, among "Crisp" to get a nice pizza and other foods..
It can do the same what higher wattage combi microwaves can do.

I also use it for quick meals.

Yes I also have an airfryer, but it doesn't fit a pizza..

I guess that depends on the size of the pizza. In germany we have pizzas (party snacks) with a diameter of around 8cm/3 Inch.

nothing special, just another data cable since you don't know when it failed, having another one is important

For iP? So not a certified product then? Do those even work?

They stopped the production of NR200, what a L from Cooler Master.
Extremely HARD to find any in Europe or shipping to France. Contacted stores in Germany, Swiss, Poland, Greece... and when you find they ship only in their country even when i offered a premium and extra cost :mad:

Only white version or all the P / Max are available whithout too much difficulties.
I posted ads this week on big French websites in the IT field to even buy used boxes but received no positive response.
SO FU IT ALL
Snatched one from Amazon USA, 2 left... 72$ shipping and 31$ taxes. I could have choosen to receive the 22/02 instead of 09/02 and pay 48$ and no taxes but i have the full build waiting in boxes and the timer to return them is ticking if there is issues.

The only thing who could replace is the Dan C4-SFX v2 update, the v1 on ebay is at 500$ :laugh:

in my experience, cheap generic ones fail quicker than good ones. infact with cheap ones you always end up paying more over time.

"Cheap is as Cheap does"... :roll:

This is not to say that you need to spend $100+ on a cable (think uGreen, Anker, Belkin etc), but that you usually get what you pay for, and I would much rather pay a few more $$ for a quality cable (and most other stuff too) and have it last a long time, than the other way around.... plus that lets me do my small part in reducing e-waste too

All I buy are the Amazon basics cables. Have been for years. Haven't had one die in probably 10 or more years... knock on wood. I used to buy the uber expensive HDMI, USB etc... but got tired of having to replace them. Luck of the draw I suppose.

Have been thinking of a new keyboard lately.............I remember way back looking at a CODE with cherry clears................. maybe should have got it then, was about $110 and exchange rate was about on par................

Wow says "Manufactured in Kentucky"

The people that made the keyboards for IBM formed Unicomp & bought the tooling

ShiBDiB · Feb 4, 2024

$450 in Hard Drives.... pain...

Replacing 1 of the 1TB Blacks with the 4TB Pro (Primarily for games and coding projects), gonna move that black into an external enclosure. Replacing an old 7200rpm storage drive with the 2TB 870.

That's their internal marketing team either not asking for regional input or ignoring it.

Classic fail - they teach it in 101 or 102 and yet it's still a common misstep.
As much as business calls for checking emotion at the door, pride can be a real toughie.
