I'm thinking of getting my sister a photo printer for her birthday. Anyone got a favorite that's relatively compact and under $100?

All is well that ends in pizza.
I'm considering one of these adapters for USB to IDE/SATA. We have one at work that's a little lesser quality and it works well. It's simple: we plug it into drives and then plug them into the computer.
At least this one has a 1 year warrantee. Also? Free shipping.
What do you think?

I'm thinking about getting a Vaja iPhone case for GF for Christmas. Anyone use one before? [link] I'm looking at the one with the stripe down the center (it's so her).

Jessica, we have a great HP one but I don't know off hand the exact number of how much it cost. Still, it makes great pictures.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Daniel, I have one, and it works fine. It's quick and easy for getting data off on old drive without physically installing the drive in something.

I'm also interested in any photo printer recommendations. We are considering a digital camera and printer for K-Bug....

So I'm pricing DSL plans, as I'm informed that I'm paying way too much for my internet service. Does anyone happen to know why a static IP address is preferable to a dynamic one, to the tune of $20/month?
Or, I'm sure someone knows, but I'd like to know why.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
I can't advise on photo printers -- I only rarely want prints, and when I do, I take the memory card to Walgreens or Wal*Mart or Target, whichever is cheapest at the moment.
My little brother has asked for a camera for Christmas, and I've been tempted by the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3 as a beginner's camera for him. List price most places is $300, but the price on Amazon has been bouncing between $200 and $240.

don't dynamic ISP's get filtered sometimes as spam?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My gut reaction is that if you don't know why you need a static IP address, you don't need one.
Static IPs are useful if someone needs to get to your house with either a hostname or an IP address. If you're hosting something at your site--mail server, web server, game server--most likely a server of some sort.
