wow...what r we talking about here? I personally don't believe Tustin is a bad place especially in Columbus Grove. Tustin does have its share of bad neighborhoods few miles away...but overall Columbus Grove seems to be a promising and developing area. I just wish they can demolish those...

Pricing as of May 01, 2008 - For Residence3 (3/3 plan)... $500,000 even. I still think it's ridiculous price for a townhouse in Tustin. Give it about 6 more months..that price will drop back to $450k or so. Lennar is smoking something.

$250 for 36" Sony Trinitron? i highly doubt anyone would buy for such high price. I recently sold a sony 40" TV for $50..and that took me 2 months to get rid of. You should either donate it and use it as tax write off for next year. i'd be surprised if anyone shells out $250 for a old...

<p>if anyone is in the market for an very affordable / portable laptop ( UMPC) ... this one might sparks some interest. It's by Asus. I have one and it's been working very well for me. There's couple of different versions of the laptop..but it's great for people that need additional or backup...

PeterUK, I recently read about the new Mac Air laptop annoucement briefly. From my reading, it seems as though they will be focusing on bringing ultra light/portable laptop for Mac fans. To my understanding, it will eliminate the standard harddrive and replace it with Flash memory (similar...

Peter UK, There's many reason why Vista is horrible, but I won't get into the technical level of it. Rather, it's just a normal phase each new software goes through. I work for a major software company and we go through the same issue with our releases...usually it takes about 5-8...

Mac vs. PC...the age old argument. As many have mentioned, it really comes down to your preferences: 1) style 2) simplicity 3) compatibility 4) reliability 5) durability 6) software 7) affordability I work for a software company and mostly deal with Window...

everyone...i think u have convinced me enough to be abit more patient. My fiance and i have been debating of when and where to buy. It's been an ongoing debate for last 8-10 months. We have decided to stay in Irvine and its neighboring area...due to our job and the fact we're comfortable here...

FairEconomist, if your argument is true (which i wouldn't mind at taking side with), I would love to hold off. But Irvine seems to be one of those interesting bubble in the real estate market. The national average may fall 20 %, but irvine will take maybe 5% hit during the same period. But...

thanks for the great feedback and opinions everyone. that's what i love about this forum...everyone will put in their 2 cents and not hold back. It's a great reality check for me. I guess i'm one of those suckers who have been lured into the "american dream" campaign. Owning a home...

qwerty, no..u weren't harsh. I fully understand your point of view. But to clarify, I am not simply buying a new place for tax deduction purpose. That is only one of many reasons. To be honest, i want my own place where I can call my own and decorate the interior as I want. To have my own...

<p>qwerty,</p> <p>my purpose of buying a home is not solely for tax deduction. I'm not financial guru..but I understand there are benefits in buying a home ( long run). I'm in the for the long haul and i'm sure the market will recover within next 10 years. </p> <p>renting is great..but...

awgee, I understand that I will be paying interest, HOA, Melloroos, etc..which will prob cost more than any rent. However, I am sick and tired of paying for someone's home. IrvineCommuter, I am looking to buy a home not for the financial reason, but for personal reason. I would...

Thanks everyone for the great input. jbatzmaru...that's what I've been preaching or attempting to brainwash my fiance with the new home deal. I prefer to buy a new home as first time buyer. I have heard horror stories about foreclosure properties and the amount of rework that needs to be...

<p>I'm new to the whole real estate game. I'm 31 and recently engaged. My fiance and I are looking for a decent property to make our home. We were looking at new homes for about 8 months, but with the slumping market..decided to wait it out. I've been fixated on new homes only...because it'll be...

<p>Almon,</p> <p> </p> <p>I believe OC register edited their content. When I read the article yesterday morning, the following paragraph clearly stated 40% will be affordable housing, but now they omitted that number and changed it to "undetermined"</p> <p> " The 430 apartments coming to...

<p>I just found this news ... seems interesting. 40% will be affordable housing. Not sure what the timeframe is...but it definitely has my interest. </p> <p> </p> <p>NEWPORT BEACH – Elected leaders late Tuesday approved an eight-figure deal that will let the Irvine Co. build hundreds of...
