by Zak Billmeier You've got room for a double-DIN receiver, but no desire to spring for in-dash DVD. Fill that dash real estate with Clarion's sharp CX201 CD receiver, and you'll enjoy an easy-to-see 2-line display along with fantastic Clarion sound quality. Plug in your iPod® or iPhone® When you plug in your player to the receiver's USB slot, you can control your iPod with the large, central control knob, plus view song info as it scrolls across the two-line display. You'll enjoy great sound quality — much better than plugging into an auxiliary input — and your player stays charged while you drive. Enjoy great sound You'll be impressed by the clean power from this receiver's built-in amplifier, and Clarion's unique bass boost will add some punch to your sound without getting muddy. The 3-band parametric equalizer is a big jump over the simple tone controls found on most factory radios, giving you pinpoint control over the highs, mids, and lows. You'll find the front auxiliary input convenient for plugging in a Dock & Play satellite radio, an MP3 player, or any other portable audio player. This receiver will play your store-bought and recordable CDs, plus any discs you've loaded with MP3 and WMA files. Two sets of preamp outputs give you extra control over your amps and subs — you can switch the rear output to subwoofer mode and use the level control for on-the-fly changes. A built-in low-pass filter lets you control the character of your bass, while a high-pass filter trims the extreme low bass out of your front and rear speakers so they play more efficiently. Ready to add on You can add an HD Radio tuner to dial in the great sound quality and expanded programming choices offered by participating AM/FM stations. The CX201 also lets you tap into SIRIUS satellite radio by adding the SCC1 tuner — unlike most receivers, it plugs in directly without a brand-specific adapter cable, so that'll save you some money. Of course, a subscription is required to hear satellite radio programming. Want to keep your car's steering wheel audio controls? In most vehicles, you can use an adapter (not included) to connect your vehicle's steering wheel controls to this Clarion stereo. Connect a few wires, then program the adapter for your particular car and the Clarion, and you'll retain the convenience of your steering wheel controls. Check the "Accessories" tab for compatible adapters. Note: If you're going to use your iPod with this receiver, be sure to check "Details" for specific iPod model compatibility with this receiver.

amazing sound quality Written By manjunath, india on Thursday, April 10, 2014 "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value I was using Sony XAV63 in my i20 almost for a year, the sound system was good but in terms of clarity it is nowhere close to clarion. It took some time to install it, slightly longer for understanding the settings, once that is done be prepared for being amazed by the sound quality. The clarity is simply amazing. Highly recommended for those who want some good sound quality music system. Pros: Sound quality, clarity, looks, build quality, Cons: Display is slightly weak in direct sunlight, settings are slightly difficult, volume is only upto 32,
Clarion CX201 Written By Mark, Pittsburgh, PA. on Thursday, November 07, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value Bought the Clarion CX501 a few years back and was so impressed, I purchased the CX201 for my friend's Honda CRV. With provided instructions, removal of the old unit was very easy. I did have to grind off (using a Dremel sanding drum) 2 small nibs on the inside of the factory side brackets to allow flush installation on the replacement unit but this was very quick and easy to do. The Clarion CX201 is a solid, full-featured replacement for almost any vehicle needing a double-dim head unit. Sound quality is top notch, even with factory speakers but will really shine with upgraded cones matched up with Crutchfields expert help. Radio pulls in stations very well, USB and Ipod AUX input read perfectly and offer easy access to all files. Options like HD radio or Bluetooth are easy to add if needed. I didn't experience any issues with the display as other have mentioned, if you follow the included directions for wiring, there are 2 ways for the display to connect and if the dimmer is the one you use, make sure the dimmer control in your vehicle is turned up all the way or just use the standard illumination connection for constant power to the display. Remember, a quick call to one of Crutchfields professional service technicians will assist you with any questions or issues you may have, they want you to be happy with your purchase. If you are looking for a great quality do-it-all unit for a fantastic price, the Clarion CX201 should be on the top of your list. Pros: Price, sound quality, features, good looks and quality brand name. Cons: Auto install nanobots not included in package yet, give them a few more years..

"Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value Very good bang for the buck, would definitely buy another one, install was extremely easy took about 25 minutes, would definitely recommend to a friend ease of usage pretty self-explanatory Adapter harness fit right in found out that radio harness is from a Toyota but was factory installed and had no problem. Pros: All attributes very good Cons: Wish one on den would be a little bit brighter .

Great value but terrible quality Written By Anonymous, Gainesville, FL on Thursday, May 09, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)

clarion cx201 Written By Nolan, Grantsville, UT on Sunday, May 05, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value Easy to install using the free Crutchfield's gear; great sound for an inexpensive radio; lots of features (love the front USB port for my jump drive). Hint: if the display is dim try to adjust the contrast; made a huge difference! Pros: Easy to use, easy to learn Cons: none
nice product Written By Rodney M, Pennsylvania on Tuesday, January 01, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value Very nice product. Easy to install with supplied directions. Nice fit with the trim kit. Also installed steering wheel control interface everything worked flawlessly. Pros: Nice features for price. Love the large display.
display is unreadable in daylight Written By TomH, Appleton, WI on Monday, December 17, 2012 "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value We returned the unit because in the Subaru Forester, and others have trouble reading the display in daylight in their vehicles as well, because the display almost totally washes out in the day time. At night, the display fine. The sound seemed muddy, too, and since this was for my wife and she called me in tears because she couldn't read the display, we returned the unit for a JVC, with which we are very happy. My spouse mainly uses the radio in satellite function and reads the station, category, artist, and song title, so the display problem was a deal breaker. Cannot recommend the Clarion model. BTW, the return was hassle free and for this reason alone -- they really mean satisfaction guaranteed -- the buying experience at Crutchfield is top rate. Pros: Nice feature package for the price Cons: display is unreadable in daylight in many vehicles
naaaaaiiiiiice Written By sen, northbergen nj on Tuesday, October 16, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value after much procrastinating, i picked this for my 06 GTO. It exceded all my expectations to say the least. adaptor quality is very good. it fit very well without grinding complaining and moaning. harness was also a very good setup with colors matching radio harness. crutchfield supplied the removal tool and instructions as well which was a great help. overall install was not a lot of cursing session. usb stick is great and sound quality is a lot better than the factory. highly recommended. Pros: all Cons: none
Clarion CX201 Written By Richard, Winter Springs, FL on Wednesday, October 03, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value Face plate kit just won't work so the receiver was pulled back out. The display is barely visible. I still plan to call for assistance when I figure how to keep it in place. Pros: The wiring hook up was easy - but no display so the wiring has got to be wrong Cons: No one thing
Great Radio for the price Written By 2006 Toyota Tundra Double Cab, S. Jersey on Tuesday, October 02, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value Great radio. The installation instructions could be a little clearer but nothing I couldn't handle. The (2) side filler pieces worked great but I didn't even use the thin trim piece so there is a little gap that you can even notice. I bought it mainly for the USB which works good. I would have liked the "random" feature to work through the entire USB instead of just per folder. One other thing I should have done was fork over the couple of extra bucks and bought the CX501, the CX201 only has blue lights which look great except when its dark out it is really distracting with my green instrument panel. Other than that a very nice radio. Pros: Pretty easy to install. looks great. USB port Cons: only one color and the "random" feature operation could be better.
poor screen color Written By Anonymous, baldwin park, ca, 91706 on Saturday, September 29, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Cannot see screen in day time...glare from sun
CX201 Written By dave45ACP, Sterling, ND on Sunday, July 22, 2012 "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value Great sound for the money! Pros: Had a problem with the the NANO Ipod talking with the devicie got error 7 on the display, reset the IPOD works good! Cons: Had this receiver for about 4 months the only issue is I can't see the display during the day its very dim even with dash illumination set to full intensity.
Clarion CX201 Written By B Gilbert, North Pole Alaska on Saturday, June 30, 2012 "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value The Clarion was a great buy. Very easy to install. Fits real good, it looks like it belongs there. Crutchfield does a great job making sure you have all the pieces and parts for doing the job. I doing business with Crutchfield again for sure.
Difficult to see display Written By JohnO356, Linden, NC on Thursday, March 29, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value I put this head unit in my 2009 Corolla and am happy I did. Complaints I 'had read about the poor antenna in the Corolla have proven false. This stereo is picking up a multitude of FM stations were not available with the factory radio. Wish I had put it in two years ago. Pros: Easy to set up your preferences in sound control. FM reception is excellent- stations are very clear with no fade. Price is good and quality seems to be great. Cons: Display is 'very difficult to read in daylight, and yes, I connected the illumination wire correctly. Once I complete all my sound 'settings and enter my preset stations, the poor display won't be a factor since I'm not one to change settings every time a new song comes on.
Clarion CX201 Written By Tim S, Dewitt, IL on Sunday, March 04, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value I installed this radio into a 2003 Silverado. A big improvement over the factory radio. I find the display very difficult to read in the daylight. I aso find the large volume control knob not as cool as I thought when I first saw a picture of the radio. It seems to take more effort to raise and lower the voume when compared to the factory small volume control knob. I wish I had purchased a higher end radio. Installation kit provided by Crutchfield worked great, but took some time to figure out whch parts of the adapter to remove to fit this radio. Pros: Good sound quality. Cons: DIsplay hard to read in daylight.
Love It! Written By TrishS, Denver, CO on Friday, February 24, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value This unit was easy to install and easy to use. It also looks great.
OK, but poor visibility Written By FS, Maryland on Wednesday, February 22, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value First experience with sat radio. Bought for a Honda Odyssey. Works OK, but screen is virtually impossible to read in daylight. Next time would opt for a higher-end display. Pros: Works ok and sounds fine. Good value. Cons: Screen is very difficult to read in daylight.
Very Nice Written By Baja King, Stroudsburg, PA on Sunday, January 29, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value The Clarion head unit is a great replacement for the factory head unit in my 2004 Subaru Baja. The double din setup is a perfect fit after removing one extra bin in the center console. The sound is terrific with the new Polk Audio DXi 650s speakers that I installed at the same time. All the hardware and installation instructions were very easy and straight forward. When plugging in an mp3 player or using cds, the sound is just as good as the stereo. There are many settings for the sound including presets from the factory. Overall, I would recommend this unit to anyone. Pros: Large display, pretty easy to use, and great sound.
Great Clarion unit Written By Smith, Kent, OH on Saturday, January 28, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value nice unit for the price. Installed it in a 91 Miata BRG even though Crutchfield doesn't recommend a double DIN for this application. It fit well with some modification of the original mounting brackets. It had a 3/4 inch gap at the bottom that I made into a shelf to hold an iPod Pros: Price,appearance,sound quality Cons: needed quite a bit of fabrication to fit my application
Clarion CX201 - Great Receiver Written By John B, Midland, TX on Friday, January 27, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value Great replacement for the factory unit. Very satisfied. Crutchfield is great!

Great unit Written By Jen D, York, Pa on Monday, October 10, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I had a friend put this in who was a professional installer. He did a little trim work with a dremel to get the face plate to fit properly. He adjusted all the settings (since he understood them much better than I) It sounds amazing in the car. I tried to use the USB port to play music from my smart phone, which was not an I Phone. It didn't work. It did work using the headphone jack plug. Overall, I am very pleased with the sound, although my friend said it took almost as long to adjust the time as it did to install the whole thing. I would highly recommend it.
Great Clarion Unit Written By Kevin, Phoenix, AZ on Friday, September 30, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Purchased this unit to replace the stolen unit in our 2001, F250. Crutchfields sales representative was very knowledgeable and spot on with the installation details. This unit has great sound and capabilities, including the Ipod/USB port. Installation in a F250 is tricky since it requires the trimming of the dash and the instructions are a touch vague. The mounting kit provided works very well. It is a nice tight fit and the unit looks absolutely awesome in the dash. It really compliments the truck. The buttons and knobs feel very durable and precise. The front panel layout is very easy to use while driving. I would recommend this unit, especially for the price!
WOW!! Written By J>K>W, Columbia, MO on Saturday, September 17, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I just installed this receiver in my 2011 Tundra Double Cab. The stock sound was horrible but when this unit was installed all I can say is WOW even w/ the stock speakers. I am getting ready to upgrade all speakers so I can only imagine the bliss I will hear then. Kudos to Crutchfield.. The car specific guide they provided w/ the receiver was spot on, there was NO guess work... THANKS CRUTCHFIELD!!! I will definitely be using you to upgrade the rest of my car stereo.
Clarion CX201 Written By JeffD, Murrieta, CA on Wednesday, August 17, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Fantastic Purchase!! Cruchfield hooked me up with everything I needed to install and installed it in about an hour in my Xterra. Great head unit, sounds much better than stock stereo and looks great too. Will definately keep shopping here for anything else I need...maybe wifes car next.
Great radio Written By DaleC, Rio Rancho, NM on Tuesday, August 02, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Easy install, helpful techs, radio works great and looks great.
Superb Written By JMoore, IN on Sunday, July 24, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This HU was everything I expected and more. Great for anyone with an iphone or ipod. Fast shipping and great instruction on how to install. This was my first time installing a stereo and it only took two hours. Will def be using Crutchfield again in the near future!
excellent value Written By john, plant city, fl on Sunday, July 10, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) superior customer service, speedy free delivery, excellent product, great value!! thanks
Great value Written By Mike H, CT on Thursday, June 02, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I bought this radio to replace the stock Bose stereo in my 1999 Maxima. The Crutchfield advisor was a great help. He listened to me about how this is a 12 yr old car and that I wanted a quality stereo for under $200 and without hesitating, he suggests the Clarion CX201. This thing has all the features you will need like 18 presets for FM stations, CD player, the required MP3 plug in and a USB port. The sound is great through the stock Bose speakers, it looks great with the blue lights and the installation was a breeze!
Clarion CX201 Written By Matt, Rochester, NY on Sunday, May 29, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) So far, this receiver has exceeded my expectations. Given the speakers I purchased with it, I'm thrilled that it has a good EQ function. I've been able to adjust things so the sound is perfect. I have yet to play with the ipod, usb drive or front input functions, but I don't expect to be disappointed. The menus are comprehensive, and easy to navigate. The receiver allows you to set your own security code, which is a huge plus. The sound so far is great, and it seems to have enough power. I've cranked it as loud as I'm ever going to, and was happy with the results. And, on top of all that, it just looks cool. My only complaint is the alphanumeric display. When viewed from an angle (driver's seat), you are able to to see all the LCD things in the background for the numbers and letters that aren't illuminated. This issue has persisted despite adjusting the contrast. The display does look great when you look directly at it, but I imagine I'd find it difficult to drive sitting on my center armrest. Other than that, I have no complaints. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a reasonably priced received, with a lot of extras.

Wonderful! Written By JR, florida on Monday, May 02, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) love this stereo, nothing bad to say about it, great product from great people at crutch field!
Clarion CX201 Written By Bill, Illinois on Monday, April 18, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I purchased the Clarion as a replacement for the double din stereo in my in- laws motorhome. I received the stereo, master sheet, GM kit, GM wire harness and GM antenna adaptor in a timely manner and installed it with no major problems. I had a couple of simple questions, but they were quickly answered by the friendly customer service reps. I would recommend Crutchfield to anyone who likes doing the installs themselves. The prices are very good too!
Great stereo! Written By JoelK, Stryker,OH on Wednesday, April 13, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) It's fun to drive my 1999 Nissan Altima again! The stock unit fizzled out after 12 years so I replaced it with this great head unit from Clarion. My Kenwood KFC-C1739's never sounded as crisp and clear as they do now. The USB port makes it easy to play tunes with my I-pod. The larger buttons make navigating through your sound options easy.
Awesome Head Unit Written By GoBuckeyes, Raleigh, NC on Sunday, April 10, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is one sweet head unit. The sound quality is AMAZING. I have four 6X9 Sony speakers I had already installed. They sound amazing with the new unit. After I faded the sound to the front of the car, I have no distortion what so ever. I have two small speakers in the front as well, better distributing the power of the unit. Nice display, sweet iPod control, easy remote, GREAT radio sound quality. The ONLY bad thing is that I have not been able to figure out how to set "AM or PM" on the clock. Crutchfield customer support IS THE BEST IN THE WORLD. every company should take some notes from them.
Nice unit for the price! Written By Tim, Phillips, ME on Friday, April 08, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Very nice unit for the price and looks like a factory unit in a 2007 Ford Focus.
Clarion CX201 Written By Thomas, Kingsport, TN on Thursday, March 24, 2011 I had the same problem with the spring and the gear. I believe this is a sloppy manufacturing error due to high demand production. But I got a replacement and this one works and sounds great. It's simpler to use than one would think at first. Looks stock, but futuristic as well. Has many adjustments for a highly personalized sound. Excellent choice.
CD bay did not worked Written By Anonymous, Boston, MA on Monday, March 21, 2011 I installed the CX 201 and immediately the CD bay did not work. When the reciever arrived to my door step, I opened it and found that a couple of springs and a plastic gear was loose inside of the receiver. The product was returned and I'm still waiting for another unit to come. Otherwise, the product looked great and loved the LCD screen.
Clarion CX201 Written By Anonymous, Fort Smith, AR on Thursday, March 17, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The receiver works just fine - my issue is with the inadequate installation directions
great unit Written By Rudy, New York on Thursday, March 10, 2011 Nice unit. Installation was easy once I figured out the stock 10amp fuse was not enough to handle it. Would have been nice if crutchfield mentioned that on the installation notes for my Honda Element. Nice remote and easy to use interface. If you have a factory sub you can splice into it with a mod RCA cable. Took about five minutes to complete the splice. Great Unit!
Clarion CX201 Written By NS, CT on Friday, March 04, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I was looking for a basic simple double DIN unit, with the ability to hookup Satellite as my primary concern. This accomplishes that. One issue I have noticed is that my presets occasinally revert back to the weather channel on sirius. Not sure if this is a Clarion issue or Sirius tuner issue.
NICE UNIT !!! Written By MIKE M, LOS ANGELES,CA on Tuesday, February 08, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Order and delivery went great !!! (Thanks Blake !) Installation went fine on my 06 Ford F- 150. The only mods were cutting off the rear tabs on the mounting kit ( But I knew that because I read the reviews on this set-up) Figuring out the mounting kit was easy. The unit looks great in my truck,and plays a lot better than the stock unit. The only problem is, the complexity of the programming itself. I cannot figure out out to set the time, adjust the dimmer or increase the treble. I read the manual, but it reads like you are cracking a safe open (left/right/left/right...).I called my "local" clarion dealer. He said, the unit was still too new, and could not offer me any information. overall I am very happy.....

Crap... I was hoping to get a new AMD Trinity with coreboot this year.
So I guess it's not happenning and we'll have to use UEFI that is bigger than the kernel itself. Awesome.
Phoronix: Don't Get Excited Over Coreboot Laptops Yet
Unfortunately there isn't much to get excited over yet when it comes to using Coreboot on laptops...
Crap... I was hoping to get a new AMD Trinity with coreboot this year.
So I guess it's not happenning and we'll have to use UEFI that is bigger than the kernel itself. Awesome.
I wonder if "we" opened a dialog with the coreboot dev community and tried to get some funding for a "Headhunting Mission" on one of the nicer looking AMD Trinity systems, if possibly we could get at least one coreboot system up.
Food for thought anyhow,
P.S. I for one would donate to that cause.
I'm sure if you posted this on the coreboot mailing list, someone would step up
http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/AMD_Socket_FM1/F1A75V/ (F1A75-V)
would be my personal suggestion. Doesn't have weird extra chips to offer extra options, cheap and does feature the graphic card connectors on the motherboard. Hard to find though (couldn't find it on newegg).
I am dissapointed with this talk. I had very high expectacions, but I heard nothing I already didn't know(on the technical side). I also want caroboot trinity, though.
The "F1A75-V PRO" seems to be much more common. I'm biased in that regard since I own one, but considering that I bought it at a local independent store I think it's a fair conclusion that it's widely distributed. I'm not sure any of the extra chips (extra USB3 controller, extra SATA controller, any others?) would actively cause problems. The "Asus TPU" sounds like the sort of OEM secret sauce that might screw things up, but it can apparently be turned off manually via a switch (unless this is just some GPIO pin that the BIOS reads and then tells the chip to turn itself off, which probably isn't out of the question).

Well, I'm looking for one of the more powerful notebooks in the not so far future: HD 6950 or better, 16 gb ram, 2 hard disks, 17 inch, i7 2... etc.
I don't quite understand the resistance against that kind of notebook in a reasonable price span... Looks like a Samsung NP-700G7A or Schenker XMG P701 to me.
And interesting features like coreboot? No chance at all it seems. Instead I'll still be stuck with a crappy BIOS. And by crappy I mean, lacking any reasonable configurability or downright buggy.
If you don't give the name of the vendor, then OF COURSE we haven't heard of it. DUH!!!
Now what is GOING to happen is the same thing that ALWAYS happens with coreboot, but with minor variation.
"We're going to do it, we're going to do it", but it won't be done in time for the hardware to ship. The hardware will then ship with proprietary bios with promise of upgrading later on to coreboot. Coreboot for that hardware won't be finished before the hardware is deemed obsolete, so attention will drop for getting it working. The hardware will eventually have a pre-alpha dev version that will be almost totally non-functional and nobody will ever be interested in working on that hardware again.
Cause those 17-18" slabs aren't laptops so much as they are desktop computers with their own built in uninterpretable power supply, screen etc. They are heavy, hot, awkward and eat power like an SUV drinks gas.
Most people go the other route of bigass desktop and a netbook or subnotebook for mobile usage. Personally I'd love a 10.1" @ 1280x800 running an AMD E-450 as that would cover 90% of my needs for a mobile device, if I needed something with more punch I'd love something based on the current AMD A8 or the upcoming A10 APU with no bigger then a 15.4", though I'd take that at 1920x1200.
Thoguh it would be nice if in the future if the OSS drivers can get multi GPU and OpenCL sorted out it would be fun to have the equivalent of the A10 w/ the HD6990m(not like the desktop version, it's only 1 core, not 2) in a 15.4", you know, shut down the HD6990m when it's not needed, but be able to use both for compute, use the IGP for light 3D(think QuakeLive or OpenArena) and the HD6990m for heavy 3d and let the IGP handle Havok engine style OpenCL physics since the performance difference between the current HD6620G(A8 IGP) and HD6990m is so much that there would likely be no benefit from Crossfire, possibly even be slower in that setup...

Former San Francisco Giants outfielder Melky Cabrera, who was named the All-Star Game MVP in July, was suspended 50-games last year for a positive drug test. / Daniel Shirey, USA TODAY Sports
After a blockbuster trade on Tuesday, the Toronto Blue Jays made another big splash this offseason by adding a free agent All-Star to their roster.
On Friday, the Blue Jays signed Melky Cabrera to a two-year contract worth $16 million, according to ESPNDeportes.com.
The deal is pending a physical.
Cabrera was suspended for 50 games last season by Major League Baseball for a positive testosterone test. He missed the final two months of the season as the San Francisco Giants marched to a World Series title.
Cabrera was reinstated to Giants' 40-man roster when the suspension was over in October, but he was not activated for the postseason or World Series.
Cabrera had a breakout season in 2012. He batted .346 with 11 home runs and 60 RBI in 113 games and was named the All-Star MVP before his suspension Aug. 15.
Cabrera was leading the NL in batting before he was suspended. He later said he wanted to be removed from consideration for the title because he felt it would be tainted. San Francisco Giants catcher Buster Posey ended up winning the batting title.
The Blue Jays will be his fifth team in eight major league seasons. He is a career .284 hitter.
Earlier this week, the Blue Jays added shortstop Jose Reyes, infielder Emilio Bonifacio and pitchers Josh Johnson and Mark Buehrle in a 12-player trade with the Miami Marlins.
The Blue Jays have suddenly become contenders in the American League East.

what about Pedro Viola?
He was supposed to have been added to the Dominican Republic roster is why I asked btw.
Viola was not on the final list. I know the DR told the Reds he was under consideration. I guess they reconsidered. I just got to Port Charlotte and will ask when I see Baker or Jocketty.

Bruins goalie Tuukka Rask had to deal with a lot of traffic in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final. / Greg M. Cooper, USA TODAY Sports
Situation: The Boston Bruins and the Chicago Blackhawks are tied 2-2 going into Saturday´s Game 5 of the best-of-seven Stanley Cup Final in Chicago (8 p.m. ET, NBC). The team that has won Game 5 in a 2-2 series has won the series 68% of the time in Stanley Cup history.
Goaltending matchup: Blackhawks' Corey Crawford (14-7, 1.86 GAA, .931 save percentage) vs. Bruins' Tuukka Rask (14-6, 1.83, .941). Now that the players have studied both goalies for four games, the consensus seems to be that you shoot high glove on Crawford and you attempt to bother Rask with heavy traffic.
Who's hot: Bruins C Patrice Bergeron has six goals in his past seven games and he has won 62% of his faceoffs in the postseason. He is on the list of Conn Smythe possibilities.
Who's not: Bruins C David Krejci has cooled off, even though he is still leading the NHL in playoff points. He has only four shots in his past three games, and no goals in his past five.
Lineup issues: Bruins rookie Carl Soderberg might draw into the lineup to play on the fourth line with Shawn Thornton and Rich Peverley. Kaspars Daugavins would be odd man out. Blackhawks' Marian Hossa (undisclosed) missed practice Friday and admits to being limited by his injury, but he is playing Game 5. Defenseman Nick Leddy only played 2:37 in Game 4, but coach Joel Quenneville said he expects him to play more in Game 5. "I thought the five guys in our rotation were getting the job done (in Game 5)," Quenneville said.
What the Bruins need to do: 1. Regain the level of efficiency they showed in the Pittsburgh series. They were uncharacteristically sloppy in Game 4. Their defense was not coach Claude Julien-caliber. 2. They need a good start in the United Center to try to reclaim some momentum. For opponents, it can feel like you are starting from behind after the crowd gets pumped up with their stirring national anthem. 3. Worst game to best game. They need to convince themselves that this is the key game of the series. They need their top line to out-produce the Bryan Bickell-Jonathan Toews-Patrick Kane line.
What the Blackhawks need to do: 1. Make the area around the Bruins net look like the Dan Ryan at rush hour. Wall-to-wall traffic, heavy congestion. 2. Continue to go hard at Zdeno Chara, continuing to hope that they wear him down. 3. Continue to minimize Boston´s faceoff advantage by sending wingers hard after those who are supposed to receive the draws.

13.02.2014 /
KTM riders laid down the markers at the opening official tests for the 2014 Moto3 season this week registering seven of the top eight fastest lap times on the Ricardo Tormo circuit in Valencia.
Italian Niccolo Antonelli took the combined time honors with a lap of 1:39.451 minute on Day Two. Red Bull KTM Ajo's Jack Miller was solid throughout, setting the fastest lap times on all three sessions on the final day. His best time came in the opening session on Day Two, to finish second fastest overall.
Together with the official factory team, Miller and teammate Karel Hanika of the Czech Republic have been hard at work, also at private tests for a nine day period and resume next week for the second round of official tests at Jerez.
Hanika has moved up to Moto3 as 2013 Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup Champion. His three-day session was marred by a crash on Day Two and a wrist injury that had to be checked by doctors. Hanika was back on the track on Day Three and wound up his tests in twenty-third fastest overall
Team boss Aki Ajo said he was particularly pleased with his charges. "It's been very hard work and we tried out many things. These have been very good tests here in Valencia and Jack has worked hard and has been constantly getting good results. We had some problems with the wind on the first day, but for February in Valencia, even the weather has been quite good."
In total it was an impressive performance for a number of teams running KTM- driven machinery. Italian Romano Fenati of Valentino Rossi's Sky VR46 team set the fourth fastest overall lap time and was second fastest on Day Three. Isaac Vinales, cousin of Maverick, the 2013 World Champion on KTM was fifth fastest overall.
Seven of the top eight fastest riders were on KTM-driven machines, split only by Husqvarna rider Danny Kent who set third fastest overall, also on Day Two!

Verlander brings renewed poise against Angels
Tigers veteran seeking old delivery in matchup with Halos rookie
Before Justin Verlander began warming up for his most recent start in Arizona, he looked at some pictures of his arm action in years past. He noticed a difference between then and now.
Verlander decided to try to emulate his delivery of old, and in doing so, the struggling ace took a step in the right direction. He was by no means dominant, but he held the D-backs to three runs over 6 2/3 innings and picked up his ninth win.
"I could tell right from Jump Street -- it felt like I was able to throw the way I want," he said. "Really the first time all year that I felt like I've been able to locate my fastball as well as I would like to."
On Saturday night, Verlander will take the same approach into his start in Anaheim against the Angels, who feature a fearsome lineup that has been a bit off-kilter of late.
Perhaps the biggest challenge for the right-hander will be pushing deeper into the game -- in each of his last five starts, he's exited after at least six but less than seven frames.
In the third meeting of a four-game set, Verlander will take on Angels right-hander Matt Shoemaker, who has never faced any of the Tigers' hitters. Shoemaker, however, has squared off against five All-Star pitchers already in his rookie season: Yu Darvish, Cliff Lee, David Price, James Shields and Chris Sale. Verlander will make six.
On Monday against the Orioles, Shoemaker gave up four runs in 5 2/3 innings, striking out 10 and walking none. Adam Jones did all the damage with a pair of two-run homers, one in the first and one in the sixth.
"After the first inning, or even after Jones in the first, settled down, got rolling," Shoemaker said. "That's what's so frustrating. You come back from that and get into the sixth inning, made a bad pitch to him."
For the season, the 27-year-old boasts a 72/15 strikeout/walk ratio.
Tigers: Hunter red hot after cool June
Torii Hunter hit .194 in June and entered July with his average under .250, but he knew he had the potential to turn it around at any moment.
Now, he's seeing results. Nobody in the American League with at least 70 at-bats in July entered Friday with a higher OPS for the month than Hunter's 1.058 clip. His .357 batting average ranked fifth in that group, while his .671 slugging percentage trailed only Pittsburgh's Andrew McCutchen among Major League regulars.
"The numbers didn't show, but I was killing the ball," Hunter said. "I wasn't changing for nothing. You saw the 0-for-4, but I had four bullets, and I said I have to keep that going. And now it's dropping the last month or so."
Eleven of Hunter's first 25 hits in July went for extra bases, including five doubles, five homers and a triple.
Angels: Offense sputtering since break
The Angels rode a hot offense to five straight wins entering the All-Star break, but since then, their firepower has disappeared.
Through seven second-half games entering Friday, the Angels hit .225 while averaging just 3.1 runs per game. They were hitting just .200 with runners in scoring position during that span, including an 0-for-12 performance Wednesday night.
The drought has cost the Angels, who were 3-4 after the break. Their series loss to Baltimore was their first home series loss since early May.
"When you're swinging the bat well, you can absorb some of the shortcomings, just like when you're pitching well, you can absorb some of the shortcomings on the offensive end," manager Mike Scioscia said. "We haven't, through this week after the break, attacked the ball like we can in the batter's box, but I don't think it's anything that we need to reinvent the wheel with these guys."
Worth noting
• In his last start, Shoemaker became the fourth Angels rookie with two 10-strikeout games. He joined Ken McBride, Bo Belinsky and Frank Tanana.
• The Tigers acquired closer Joakim Soria from the Rangers on Wednesday in exchange for two pitching prospects.

Customer Reviews
- Amazing! Review by Lil
Price Value Quality I received WR3 two weeks ago and I am absolutely amazed at what it has done for my 30 year old acne prone skin. Before this I had new acne every day and the scars, discoloration, and wrinkles were multiplying. Today my skin is soft, smooth and glowing! It's clear for the first time in over 15 years and the lines and discoloration are disappearing. Try this amazing product! Thank you, DermaDoctor, and thanks to everyone for the reviews that prompted me to make this life-changing purchase
- Excellent Product. Great on my 66 yr old skin! Review by Anna
Price Value Quality I've been using Wrinkle Revenge 3 cleanser for approx 8 months. I recently ordered my next tube, as I don't intend to run out. I gave this product a 5* on Value because it goes a long way. My skin looks rejuveniated following my a.m. & p.m. routine. Excellent base for moisturizers, antioxidants, & correctors. I love the way my skin looks; would highly recommended.
- Exceptional Review by Izzie
Price Value Quality I have tried everything to get rid of my adult acne and clogged pores, especially around the nose! I apply this in the shower let it set for about 3 to 5 minutes and viola all clear and good to go. My skin is radiant!
- Best face wash! Review by Jennifer
Price Value Quality This is a face wash and a treatment in one! Makes my skin feel so smooth. Perfect with Clarisonic.
- Wrinkle Revenge 3 Facial Wash Review by Debra
Price Value Quality Can't live without this daily facial wash. It's the BEST!!! And a little goes a long way.
- Works for me Review by Leikela44
Price Value Quality Price wise, it's not the cheapest but certainly not the most expensive, and since it works for me, I don't mind the price. I can't say this alone has been the biggest help in fixing my skin, but it's a great part of my routine. I'm mid-30s, no major wrinkle issues yet, but I know it's coming, and I wanted to start doing preventative care as soon as possible. But I've also had adult acne for the past 10 years, mostly cystic on my chin, and regular light breakouts on my forehead. I cant handle Retinol products, they make me break out., as does a lot of stuff. I've tried doing it the all natural way, and discovered I need something more intense - bring on the chemicals! But none of the typical acne medications worked either - salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide, etc just dry out my skin and don't help the breakouts - maybe because it's adult onset and my skin is just different.
Anyway, since I started using GA and AHA products, my skin has really improved. I'll always have my skin, there's no miracle products out there (and I've tried a LOT), but I haven't had a cystic bump in ages, my skin is smooth and neither dry nor oily, and it also feels tighter. I've tried other brands and currently use a less expensive moisturizer (alpha hydrox), but as a face wash, this one is my favorite because after a few months, it's still working great with no problems. Unless that changes, this is my forever wash. - Great facial cleanser Review by Gloria
Price Value Quality I have had acne most of my life but since I started using
wrinkle revenge 3 antioxidant enhanced glycolic acid facial cleanser,
it has gone away! It's like a miracle! I don't use anything by this cleanser and wish that I had discovered it much sooner. It leaves my face very clean without the extreme dryness and has helped
fade the sun spots and fine wrinkles. I highly recommend it. - Never stop making this!! Review by Anna
Price Value Quality I'm 66 years young and have used a variety of products over the years. Wrinkle Revenge 3 is like a daily facial, getting rid of "old" dry cells, and leaving my face refreshed & young looking. I use it daily. Please don't ever stop making this!!
- Awesome! Review by Charlie
Price Value Quality I have been using this product for a year now and it leaves my skin looking renewed and feeling soft.
- Favorite Cleanser! Review by CD
Price Value Quality My dermatologist started me on glycolic cleansers several years ago. I started with WR2 and worked my way up to WR3. I hope you never stop making this product! I have used WR3 for several years now and love the results!

A brand new compact sedan made by the Chevrolet division of General Motors, designed for MY 2011. It really makes up for the shittard Chevy Cobalt, which had a crappy interior. Similar to the Cobalt, the Cruze gets 36 mpg highway, a lot like the Cobalt's 37. Originally it was also the Holden Cruze sold in Australia and Asia, but imported into the United States in 2010.
Impressive! The Chevrolet Cruze in one sexy car, getting SO much mpg on the highway!!

good to have you on board
Where's the Scottish Rite?
edit - Never mind, I found where it is.
Someone should get reps from KNBR ala Murph and Mac show or reps from the Giants down there to promote.
Go Giants and BEAT LA
