jbass on "RE: Wrist hurting? Slap on a foot mouse"
I lost the use of both arms in an accident many years ago and a combination of voice software and foot mouse has been the only way I am able to use the computer. Problems with the lower back have become chronic when using the product above which I tried about a year ago. Another solution is the Footmouse by Hunter digital which I have had better luck using. The biggest shortfall with the Hunter digital product is a lack of quality control andprice. It costs around $300 and I have had to purchase four replacements in the last four years. It's a small company which likely accounts for the lack of quality control but without the product, I would not be a participant in the information age. I do wish the manufacturer would improve the quality of the product but I have seen no change in design over the last four years.

dragonegg on "RE: Candid retrospective of the Kane & Lynch fiasco"
Its truely a sad story. Of note, people should realize gaming magazines went through the same thing which is why I no longer read gaming magazines. Since many of the publishers paid for advertising in the gaming magazines, many of the reviews were "influenced". I don't trust reviews from websites either. The days of honest game reviews are long gone. As long as the publishers are paying for advertising for a review site or magazine, the review itself is always suspect for the games developed by those publishers and their competitors.

jcald004 on "Don't have permission to open external hard drive?"
I had my hard drive taken out of my old laptop and placed in a USB case that basically turns that hard drive in to an external hard drive. Everytime I try to access the info on the "ext HD" it says I don't have permission to access the files. Why is it not letting me in? What settings do I change? I am using 64 bit Vista, the old HD was XP. Please Help!

Regulas - you are a disgrace to Christian conduct
It is probably poor practise to introduce faith into a technology discussion on GPS. But to do so with plain ignorance of the facts, and the bibles actual teachings on the book of Revaltion is a disgrace.
May I suggest to those who do not know Jesus that they discount this persons ranting for what it is. If you do want to know more on what Jesus represents to Christians may I encourage you to seek this from a reputable church body.
All technolgy can be abused, and all technology can be put to wonderful purposes. We live in an imperfect world and sadly there will be the abuse, but may I suggest we each individually turn away from any temptation to this, and rather focus our efforts on the wonderful potential being presented to us.

Paulanator on "Gateway Won't Boot"
I have a customer's computer Gateway 5235E that has the same symptoms. It will not POST, and when I put a post card in it, I get an error 50, which looks mostly like hardware issues, video, and a couple of other, depending on the bios.
I have reset the bios/mobo, I have eliminated one device at a time, until I have nothing connected but the CPU, moboand power supply.
Tried new power supply, new video card. I am thinking this mobo or processor is fried.
The really weird thing is, if you unplug it, or turn it off after not booting, sometimes it boots up like nothing happened. I am leaning on the bad mobo issue at this point.

The issues with compatibility and conflicts between Security apps by all the software makers seems like a concern for all of us. For me, I just want one set of security that is adequate and run without issues. Seems like nobody has it. The testers tell me how great, powerful and all-protective a secuity suite is and then I find I am not protected against the security suite from doing something that costs me inconvenience. So if a comparatively problem free suite exists then the testers should find it and tell us who depend on PC for idiots.

Tall_timbers, I agree and did the same.

Ive had the computer for 9 months and it was free with a non working cd rom drive.
I networked it and loaded win xp on it from the cd rom of a networked computer and it was running fine.
My wife complained of it being slow so i added an aditional 512 megs of ram and its faster.
I got a NTDLR screen today and im screwed now as somehow there a password in the bios now and i cant get in to changeboot from network now!
it does not have a floppy drive so i cant use the program provided by Compaq to reset the bios and flash them.
I tried using a cd with the program and it only loads to floppy drive only and of corse i dont have a floppy on any of the other computers in the house!
Be advised it has had a tendency to restart on its own untill i added the new ram.
Who has a password that will work for the 2100 us so i can fix the booting options in my wifes POS?

PloniAlmoni on "RE: Feature: 8 Cores on a Budget- Building a Better Workstation"
Actually, I bet one could put togeather a Mac Pro for around that price. Just don't buy hard drives and RAM from Apple. Get the minimum of those two items, then buy the Xeon RAM and standard hard drives from elsewhere. You'll wind up with comparable prices from your own build, though maybe not as much fun! (Unless you want to run OS X legally... Which considering what's coming up in Snow Leopard in the way of optimizing ordinary apps for a many-core system you might well want to do.)

SalCan on "RE: Feature: 8 Cores on a Budget- Building a Better Workstation"
First off, I think a better comparison would be to a Lenovo ThinkStation D10 or HP xw8600, etc. Anyway, I just stopped by Apple.com. A Mac Pro with:
- Two 2.8GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon - 4GB (4x1GB) RAM- 320GB 7200-rpm Serial ATA 3Gb/s - 1TB 7200-rpm Serial ATA 3Gb/s - NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT 512MB - One 16x SuperDrive
Is $3899 before tax (shipping is free). So that's quite close to Josh's machine, but you don't get the Raptor disk, Blu-ray, or the Quadro FX. Yes, do you get Apple's nicely done interior and one warranty, but the Pro is not cheaper from what I can tell. Tax alone is going to be hundreds and then you need a Vistal Ultimate license.
Also, regarding the video, the Quadro FX is "certified on all industry-leading CAD, DCC, and visualization applications" (say Nvidia) and it's a workstation graphics card so it makes sense why it was chosen over something else.
Finally, I think a point can be made for upgradeability. In two or three years when you want to replace your video card and processors it's probably going to be easier on something you built yourself. Whether is just because you know it better or better, because everything inside is not custom tailored for the other parts, or just because you don't have to worry about any proprietary parts.
Not to take sides or anything... I think it often makes sense to explore buying something from a manufacturer. It would certainly have saved some time!

hakime on "RE: Feature: 8 Cores on a Budget- Building a Better Workstation"
"then you need a Vistal Ultimate license."
Why a hell you need to add Vista Ultimate Licence when the Mac Pro comes with a 64 bits fully UNIX03/SUS certified OS called Mac OS X.
"Yes, do you get Apple's nicely done interior and one warranty"
One warranty is a big deal for professionals, having no warranty can be a bug pain particularly on custom built hardware not tested and not well engineered.
Also remember that with a Mac Pro you get as i said a very nice peace of engineering (that you also don't get from Dell or HP by the way), it looks nice inside yes but it also provides a complex network of sensors that monitor the machine for reliability and performance, again two things important in workstations.

joshkorwin on "RE: Feature: 8 Cores on a Budget- Building a Better Workstation"
Wow, looks like I inadvertently started a Mac fanboy flamewar. Not intended. In any case, when I said "comparably" equipped, I kept it in quotes on purpose: for the components that were unavailable in the Apple when compared with my system, I tried to find other perks that would be of similar use. For example I added the RAID controller, since my system uses RAID. And the clock speeds of the Mac Pro were like .3 GHz faster. And then there are the differences between OS X and Windows Vista—in a lot of ways it's apples to oranges (no pun intended). Sal's right; there's probably a better comparison to be made between my system and another PC workstation, like a Lenovo for example. Either way, I think you'd be hard pressed to prove that it's universally cheaper to buy high-end, specialty equipment from a provider rather than building from scratch. Economies of scale work when there's scale. But when needs are more specialized (cough, 8 cores, cough), it's usually cheaper if you can squeeze by on your own.
It's probably safe to say that a significant proportion of "content creators" are using Apple systems to do what they do, and I'm often asked why I do not use a Mac, especially given that I'm in the graphic design field. I want to note for the record that it's not a heated point of contention for me; I've always been on PCs, and I simply find that a lot of the things I need to accomplish are very easy for me to do on a PC. In the long run I think it saves me time; in the end I think it's not necessarily always about the speed or stunning good looks of one's computer, but the efficiency of one's overall workflow. And more often than not, level of comfort with software and interface are going to be a MUCH bigger factor on the amount of time that I save while working than say, bus speeds. As I had alluded to in the article, I had lived with my previous dual Xeon machine for five years, and it was terrific for 90% of that. Even when I transitioned over to the new, much faster box, I was extremely hesitant—even the exponentially faster equipment wouldn't have been able to make up for the "setup curve" (all the time it took to get the software installed and to get everything tweaked and customized to the point where I was comfortable working on it).
I think it's easy to underestimate the human role in computing, and I wanted to highlight that to some degree in this article. It's all well and good to have the fastest, greatest hardware, sure. But it's always a matter of what you're doing with it, and how it suits you, and in that sense there are no absolutes. For some, Apples offer absolutely everything they need and more, and that's why Apple has their market share. But the user is the one who makes the biggest productivity difference in the long run.*
*Except when rendering video or 3D. I cannot tell you how many times I've had to wait overnight for a project to be complete, while not being able to use the system in the interim due to its extreme CPU/RAM usage.
@hakime:
Come on, why you gotta insult my interior decorating? :) Seriously, you should see my previous computer. It was a warzone compared to this one. I'm actually quite proud that it look as clean as it does! But yeah, one of course gets all of the nifty, well-engineered bells and whistles when you buy from the pros; that's precisely what you're paying for. Also, let me point out that I intentionally made quite a big point in the article about what a masochistic process it is to build one's own machine—not only do you end up with the interior beauty of a rotting whale, but the system as a whole is unwarrantied and unsupported. It's a risky venture, and I acknowledge that in full. A big part of my struggle when planning this generation of my main workstation was to figure out whether I should build or buy. It was an epic decision for me, but as usual I stuck to my old habits and decided to build again. I'm totally glad I did, but it's not for everybody. And it's certainly not just an economic decision—it has to be for the love of doing it yourself, making your own mistakes, and yes, being criticized for your system's inferiority to the immaculate drops of pure enlightenment oozing from Cupertino.

I used to use norton antivirus and norton utilities.... All of their products began to become intrusive and would often be the cause of other things not working properly... so I ditched them and will probably never try any of their products again. They and McAfee are in the same boat in my book.

Never Buy a House from a Realtor
A couple weekends ago we embarked on a seemingly simple painting project at home. We wanted finally paint over the wall that was torn up when I had plumbing problems a few years ago (see: The Leak, Day #2, The Leak, Day #3: Leak Found, Pictures, Showering with a 90 Foot Hose, and other Fun Tidbits, The Leak, Day #7: Still Showering with a Hose, etc.).
There were numerous cans of paint in the garage that the previous owners had left behind. And since the house had mostly white walls, it seemed like a pretty trivial task. We got out the paint, spread the plastic and sheets, stirred, poured, and started putting paint on the walls.
After a bit of painting it became apparent that were we not using the right color. Apparently there was more than one white used in the house. This wouldn't normally be a problem. But as part of the painting we decided to touch up a few other walls in other rooms of the house. It looked fine while the paint was wet. But as the paint dried, we realized that there were actually three or more different flavors of "white" in use around the house.
Grr.
Realizing what pain in the ass this could turn into, we opted to chip a bit of paint off the affected walls, take them over to our neighborhood Orchard Supply Hardware, and get them to match the color.
They did an excellent job. The touched up spots look fine. And the colored paint we got for the previously repaired wall looks great. (Oh, we decide to use a non-white color after we realized the "white" was all wrong.)
So you're probably wondering what this has to do with realtors.
Realtors know what it takes to sell a house. They know where they can cut corners and get away with it. After thinking about it a bit, I realized what the previous owners of our house must have done. I suspect that they hired some cheap painters and asked them to bring along any leftover white paint from previous jobs.
They did. And they used one white for one room, a slightly different white for the next, and so on--thereby using up the extra paint and not having to spend a whopping $12/gallon to repaint the house before selling it.
I can't think of any other reason why someone would paint different rooms using shades of white that are just different enough to be different. It just doesn't make sense.
But to make matters worse, they didn't bother to label the spare cans so we'd know which room the colors applied to. At least the spare paint can I put away after we were done have things like "living room" or "bedroom" written on them in black marker.
Damned cheap-ass realtors.
Anyone need three or four cans of partially used off-white paint? (comments)

DSLRs are expensive, amybe that is why low penetration? I am trying to decide if a DSLR camera is worth it. I know the quality of pictures is obviously higher, but still not sure if cost is worth it. This site http://www.dslrcamerareviews.comseems to indicate a DSLR is worth it and prices are coming down, but I read conflicting things, so not really sure. Thoughts? Thanks

Wow. That's almost the definition of an "incremental upgrade". There is absolutely nothing new or revolutionary there. Big event, small news.
Strangely enough, Microsoft is the one that is doing innovative stuff in the mobile entertainment segment right now. Their new update to the Zune is doing some pretty cool stuff. "Buy from FM" is pretty slick. Partnering with various expert sources for streaming channels via wi-fi direct to the device is slick. And they are now compatible with far more audio book providers than iPod. The online "Zune Social" continues to expand its music discovery capabilities.
Meanwhile Apple announces... what?
Microsoft hasthe momentum right now. Like everything they do, the first few versions underwhelm. But in the process they build an infrastructure. Then they start to leverage it, and watch out!
iPod still outsells Zune 100:1. But the day is coming...

Greenpost on "RE: Symantec: Norton Internet Security 2009 is"
Personally I believe it deserves to be tested. I will be waiting for the people who review these for a living first though before trying it on my test machine.
I'm currently with a vendor who isn't in the top 5 of AV vendors - mainly because I'm aware that some virus creators use those vendors software to test their viruses for perfection.
Generally though it's always good to have a second opinion type scan every so often.
Just for the record I used to be with Norton - but when the license expired and I installed one from a completely different vendor I was amazed to see how many viruses detected which were unseen by Symantec. Plus it wasn't as if I didn't set Symantec to scan by itself every so often anyway.

Battery life should not be a large concern due to screen size since it uses e-ink display technology (which does not draw power except during page redraws). The screen is a flexible plastic, not rigid glass, so the biggest concern would be scratches not breakage.

H8TMobile on "Seeking Help / Advice for Sidekick Slide Problem"
I bought a Sidekick Slide for my daughter at Christmas 2007. Two to three months later the ‘hard reset' problem (well documented on the internet) started occurring. After experiencing the problem for a couple months, we eventually contacted T-Mobile for help. (Comment: I hesitate to use the word "help" and T-Mobile in the same sentence.)
The customer service rep, who I could barely understand, first tried to sell me the $20 per month data plan claiming that would fix the phone reset problem. I told them the data plan had nothing to do with the phone resetting. Yes, the data plan would solve the issue of losing absolutely everything on the phone when it reset itself, but not the problem with it resetting for no rhyme or reason. After many, many minutes and much back-and-forth, the rep eventually agreed to send a replacement phone - a refurbished one. All this took place in June.
After receiving the refurbished phone, we returned the defective one and began using the new one. Needless to day, the problem reappeared soon thereafter.
This week my daughter was so frustrated with losing all her contacts when the phone reset itself and she asked me to call T-Mobile again. I dreaded it but I called T-Mobile again.
Once again, I explained the problem with the hard reset to the customer service rep and once again she started trying to sell me a data plan for $20 per month. She actually told me the problem would not occur if I had the data plan. I told her that is false and deceptive advertising if you sell the Sidekick Slide knowing there will be problems if you don't buy the data plan. Her response was "Well, I hate to tell you this but lots of companies do it". My reply was "the Attorney General will be very interested in hearing this".
I insisted on talking with a supervisor. She reluctantly agreed and put me on-hold for over half an hour before the supervisor finally answered.
At first, the supervisor also tried to sell me a data plan but soon backed off when she realized I wasn't some sucker. I told her I wanted the phone replaced with either a Sidekick LX or 2008. She said they couldn't do that per policy but they could send me a replacement since it's still under warranty.
She went on to say I would have to take the phone to a UPS store and have it sent to them. If we need/want a replacement phone in the meantime, we'll have to go to our local T-Mobile store and get a loaner. (They sent me a replacement phone first the last time it was replaced but according to the supervisor, they're not supposed to do that so she wouldn't.)
Has anyone had any success in getting a defective Sidekick Slide replaced? If so, what is the "secret"? Is there a special number or a particular person/department I should talk to?
BTW, I called Motorola this morning and they said send it to them and they will repair it since it's under warranty. Does anyone know if the repair will get rid of the ‘hard reset' problem?
Thank you in advance for any and all tips and information.

ByteShield on "RE: Amazon customers award Spore one star for DRM"
This is a terrible story for 2 parties - legitimate users who simply wanted to play Spore and couldn't because the activation servers went down and EA because Spore was cracked even before it was released.
Often developers walk a tightrope with the trade off between protection strength and the degree of impact on legitimate users but this was a failure on both dimensions! Is this really what the publisher wants to 'accomplish'? Why not use a solution which is friendly to honest users, has no impact on development time and the strongest available protection against crackers - see our whitepaper http://www.byteshield.net/byteshield_whitepaper_0005.pdf.

mjs on "RE: HP EliteBook has a 24-hour battery life"
So the real news is that HP can't quite manage the battery lifethey had over 20 years ago. The HP110 and Portable Plus of hte mid 1980s had a conservatively estimated battery life of 20 hours. In reality, they tended to last much longer.
Since then, it has been a downward trend. The original OmniBook 300 of the mid 1990s, with its ROM boot disk and optional SSD, was better than most moder laptops, but was never followed up.
If competition really gives consumers what they want, then it is clear that battery life longer than the standard 4 hours is not very high on most people's list. Very few manufacturers even consider it. Hopefully this new range will push back the boundaries again and give some real choice.

mjs on "RE: Belt drives to eventually replace bicycle chains"
On of the major disadvantages of belt drives on a bike is the fact that belts tend to stretch. This makes them very ineeficient to use compared with chain drives. As such they are only suitable for short journeys on relatively flat terrain. I see nothing in either of the source articles to indicate that anything has been done about this.
The main advantage of abelt drive is, presumably,that you don't need to oil it. As such, they are likely to appeal to short range urban riders who want a "clean" bike. However, this also requires hub brakes to stop brake pad dust, which can be a bigger problem that chain oil. Also, it requires mudguards (fenders) and probably a rear rack. As such, I am not surewho the Trek District would appeal to.

I don't see any of the things mentioned as advantages.
However, having had a landlord who constantly pulled my bicycle out of the basement and into the backyard (safe from theft), I can see a huge advantage to having a "chain" that doesn't rust (and also isn't covered in oil). But then I'd have no excuse for visiting the local bicycle repair school where we do (well, did, in my case) our own maintenance next to some mighty cute women for just a couple of bucks (maybe more nowadays).

kev_a_swing_dancer on "RE: First Windows Vista Seinfeld advert released"
When I saw first saw this commercial, by accident when I switched to the opening NFL game on Thursday, I thought it was god awful. I later saw I had a lot of company in that feeling.
However, having attempted to be a film and commercial actor, I can say that it is very difficult to act badly in the way Bill Gates does in this commercial. Jerry sounds so lousy because he's trying to act bad and he can't act at all but it's funny when he's trying to act well. It has long been the stuff of reviews of cult films that it is extraordinary difficult to have a commercial be so uniformly and evenly (if that's not redundant) bad from beginning to end. I noticed many besides me thought the "leather" reply was the highlight of the commercial and none of us have the slightest idea what it meant or what metaphor it could possibly represent in response to Jerry's question.
Somehow I think Mac and Linux are being mentioned in there. I look forward to the "American Pie"-like analysis (the song, not the movie).

I saw it on youtube and then i saw it on television about a dozen times this weekend. I wasn't impressed at all. Bill Gates playing the straight man was amusing enough, but Jerry Seinfeld asking him to adjust his shorts and stuff like that just wasn't funny. Yeah, the leather response was probably the highlight.
Overall, I don't think it was very confidence inspiring. A "soft and cakey" OS sounds was to consumer-y anyway. It was basically just a $300M way for MS to tell everyone that they weren't giving up.

This is by far and away my favorite DDR game. it has quite simply put, the BEST playlist out there. More songs you know, more actual music videos from actual artists, and less of the endless remixes of paranoia and other DDR standby filler music. If the reason you buy a new DDR is to get new music, this is a MAJOR plus, not a detriment as this reviewer said, as the music wont' sound like EVERY OTHER SINGLE GAME you have. And it isn't patheticly sung remixes either, its the real voices of the artists, and often the real music videos.
I don't think I'm alone in wanting familiar music to dance to either - after all there was that "dance factory" game (which, sadly, coudln't find a beat to save its life) - I play this game with friends and everyone I know thinks the music on thie DDR is the best collection they've put out yet. Best yet, to unlock the songs, all you have to do is play the game. No ridiculous stellar mission mode thigns necessary... just get out the game and play and the songs unlock.

Long Term Data Archiving Formats, Storage, and Architecture
I'm thinking about ways to store archival data for the long term
and wanted to solicit anyone who's been down this road for some
input, advice, warnings, etc.
Background
Essentially I'm dealing with a system where "live" and "recently
live" data is stored in a set of
replicated MySQL servers and queried
in real-time. As time goes on, however, older "expired" data is
moved to a smaller set of replicated "archive" servers that also
happen to be MySQL.
This is problematic for a few reasons, but rather than be all
negative, I'll express what I'm trying to do in the form of some
goals.
Goals
There are a few high-level things I'd like this archive to
handle based on current and future needs:
Be able to store data for the foreseeable future. That means
hundreds of millions of records and, ultimately, billions.
Fast access to a small set of records. In other words, I like
having MySQL and indexes that'll get me what I want in a hurry
without having to write a lot of code. The archive needs to be
able to handle real-time queries quickly. It does this today and
needs to continue to work.
Future-proof file/data format(s). One problem with simply using
MySQL is that there will be schema changes over time. A column may
be added or dropped or renamed. That change can't easily be
implemented retroactively on a larger data set in a big table or
whatnot. But if you don't then code needs to be willing to deal
with those changes, NULLs appearing, etc.
Fault tolerance. In other words, the data has to live in more
than once place.
Support for large scans on the data. This can be to do full-text
style searches, looking for patterns that can't easily be indexed,
computing statistics, etc.
It's worth noting that data is added to the archive on a constant
basis and it is queried regularly in a variety of ways. But there
are no delete or updates occurring. It's a write heavy system most
of the time.
Pieces of a Possible Solution
I'm not sure that a single tool or piece of infrastructure will
ever solve all the needs, but I'm thinking there may be several open
source solutions that can be put to use.
You'll notice that this involves duplicating data, but storage is
fairly cheap. And each piece is especially good at solving one or
more of our needs.
MySQL. I still believe there's a need for having a copy of the
data
either denormalized
or in a star
schema in a set of replicated MySQL instances using MyISAM. The
transactional overhead of InnoDB isn't really needed here. To keep
things manageable one might create tables per month or quarter or
year. Down the road
maybe Drizzle makes
sense?
Sphinx. I've been
experimenting with Sphinx for indexing large amounts of textual data
(with some numeric attributes) and it works remarkably well. This
would be very useful instead of building MySQL full-text
indexes or doing painful LIKE queries.
Hadoop/HDFS
and Flat
Files or a simple record structure. To facilitate fast batch
processing of large chunks of data, it'd be nice to have everything
stored in HDFS as part of a small Hadoop cluster where one can use
Hadoop Streaming to run jobs over the entire data set. But what's
good future-proof file format that's efficient? We could use
something like XML
(duh), JSON, or
even Protocol
Buffers. And it may make sense to compress the data with gzip
too. Maybe put a month's worth of data per file and compress?
Even Pig
could be handy down the road.
While it involves some data duplication, I believe these pieces
could do a good job of handling a wide variety of use cases:
real-time simple queries, full-text searching, and more intense
searching or statistical processing that can't be pre-indexed.
So what else is there to consider here? Other tools or
considerations when dealing with a growing archive of data whose
structure may grow and change over time?
I'm mostly keeping discussion of storage hardware out of this,
since it's not the piece I really deal with (a big disk is a big
disk for most of my purposes), but if you have thoughts on that,
feel free to say so. So far I'm only thinking 64bit Linux boxes
with RAID for MySQL and non-RAID for HDFS and Sphinx.

For those saying RickGeek is an Intel fanboy, he used to get abuse before Core2Duo about being an AMD fanboy. He might go from extreme's but Rick often highlights things good for a ChipGeek to know.
I'd still buy AMD systems, my laptops are always Intel but I don't see a real problem in buying AMD for a desktop and perhaps to help keep competition going I'd pick them over Intel if they offered similar price for performance systems.
I did recently convince the director for the computer I work for to buy 65 Intel based PC's,onlybecause HP in Australiadidn't offer any AMD systems that competed with the Intel systems. Which is a shame.
Even if AMD went belly up today, their complete systems still on sale would still be good to buy because even if they had a fault the supplier would be responsible for honoring the warranty.

The article fails to mention that belt-drive requires a completely new frame design. Normally, when one replaces a bicycle chain, the master-link must be removed, or a chain rivet extractor must be used to break the chain. It would be physically impossible to install a chain without disconnecting a link, looping the chain through, and reconnecting the link.
Now let me ask this question: How Do You Find The Master Link On A Drive Belt?
Drive Belts will require that one of the frame tubes (seat-stay) be held in place by a removable bolt.

Id sure like to know if those two PS's of yours worked on your friend's computer. Etiher you got "lucky" and bought a bad PS, or you have an intermittent problem that is going to plauge you and any technician that you send that thing to for a long, long time. If you can check it with your friend's PS again, and it works, try removing the PS and putting it back in again two or three times just to see if it keeps working. If it ever does fail, suspect the connectors of having cold solder joints, or wires as having hairline fractures. My best guess, at this point is going to be cold solder joints...that's assuming the PS you bought is actually good.

twidget on "Presario V2000 AC adapter breaks"
In electronics tech school we were taught the following: "PN junctions will NEVER EVER fail in theory, HOWEVER due to manufacturing flaws and inconsistancies which are inevitable, they are always the FIRST things to go!" Now with that said: It doesn't have to be your power adapter that has failed. It could be the fuse that your power adapter feeds, the jack connections inside the computer, or the reverse polarity diode that the power adapter feeds. If it is that latter, then the power adapter is likely bad as well, usually when the reverse polarity diode shorts, it takes the power source with it. However, if your 'puter still works on battery power, I think it's likely not the diode. If it is the power adapter, several things could have caused it to go depending on where you are, what type of source wiring you have, building maintenance, etc...:
1) Pure dumb luck...bad pn junction (transistor / microchip) inside the power adapter.
2) Power surge from power source (RMS power in Iraq is horrible--I'm waiting for my laptop to blow up in my face!)
3) Poor grounding in the building's wiring system (In Iraq, everything was expedient, and NOTHING is grounded out here--NOTHING, people are getting killed in the showers). (Had a lady in a mobile home next to mine in North Carlolina a couple of decades ago--her trailor wasn't grounded properly, kept blowing her VCR...the only thing that went, but her VCR didn't like her moblile home, so she gave it to me after the 5th timeof me fixingit!)
4) Improper care / abuse. Getting moisture around it or the 'puter, causing current draws beyond what it is capable of supporting.
5) 'Puter with a bad circuit that works, but is drawing slightly too much current, which in turns over works the adapter--'puter will go out soon in this case. Also, this is a one in a million event, but it could still happen. I doubt this is the case, and as such if it were the case, would be the last thing anyone thought of, and would take longer to diagnose due to that.
6) Well, that's about all.
Now, if you're going to try to use these for troubleshooting guides, don't. The best T.S. Guide would be (load)test the output of the adapter. If its truely dead, replace or fix it. If not, have the computer looked at.

In warrenty or out. I assume out or you wouldn't be asking. This sounds like ***sounds like is a key phrase*** an onboard fuse is gone. Not an easy fix if you don't know discrete components or know how or have the equipment to replace it with. Fuses also generally go for a reason...not always, but generally. If there is a bad fuse, you might have a bad power supply. Sorry for the bad omen here, but that's the way I'm seeing this from here. Hope this at least helps you make a sound decision.

I think the depth and breath of services you get with Pocket Express is one aspect. The interface is easy to use, and content easy to read. The content is great, for example in the news service you get lots of Associated Press articles and the also have this great blog called Reds Blog which cover a whole range of topics and is fun and informative.
There are 12 channels in all covering everything from Travel, Weather, Extra and turn by turn directions. Nearlly all of this is free.
So I would recommend downloading it and trying it out.

The second now refuses to work and I don't know why. It is an HP adapter compatible with my laptop. It worked for less than a year but it now does not charge my computer's battery. There is no damage or overheating or any evidence of neglect.
I ran out of ideas why it is broken...can anyone suggest an idea or a solution.

Ok, I figured something out...sort of. Well, it doesn't work. If you go to tools, Internet Options, Security tab, Trusted sites, you can ADD a site that (IF I'm correct) will bypass the security check that was stopping it because you've told the system that you trust this site. Well, it doesn't seem to work. In the drill down:
https://www.courses.cnet.navy.mil/StudentFunctions/Login.htm, it ges past the https://www.courses.cnet.navy.mil which it didn't use to do, but it gets hung up at the former now. When I try to add the former, it says that this site is already in the trusted list. Actually, I would thik so too, if you trust a primary site, then all of its subordinate sites should also be trusted, then why does it continue to hang?

WhiteFlower on "RE: Belt drives to eventually replace bicycle chains"
One way of changing the gearing would be:
Have a mechanism with "fingers" that can open the "hand" to adjust the diameter (changing the gearing). (Imaging using your fingers placed inside of the belt and fingers extended outwards to grip the belt).
The issue of distance between fingers compared to distance between groves on the belt can be solved by adding/clicking an extra finger into position with each increment of gearing. The tension in the belt can be kept constant with a wheel that places pressure on the belt.

Summary
If you enjoy taking surveys online, jobslover.com is an ideal way to make a few extra dollars in the privacy of your home.

If you enjoy taking surveys online, jobslover.com is an ideal way to make a few extra dollars in the privacy of your home. Best of all, Jobslovert will not give out your personal information to its advertisers, so you don't have to worry about getting dozens of phone calls from people trying to sell you everything from health insurance to an online education.
To participate in Jobslover.com, you must be at least 18 years old. Only one person from each family can sign up for the site, but there are many surveys that teenagers can participate in that pay. Family members just need to divvy up the money when it arrives.
Not all surveys at Jobslover.com offer payment. Some of them simply offer a sweepstakes entry. But you are under no obligation to do any survey in which you don't want to participate. Unlike some sites, survey offers are sent to you via e-mail. You are under no obligation to respond to the e-mail if the survey does not interest you and you will not be kicked off of the site.
If you find a survey that offers a cash reward, payment is immediate. Unlike many other online survey companies, you do not have to accumulate a certain dollar amount before receiving payment. The money is sent to you via check and generally arrives within four weeks after survey completion.
You may also be asked to test new products that will be delivered to your door. This is an excellent way for people to try different products that they would otherwise not buy. In most cases, you will be financially compensated for testing the product.
To sign up for Jobslover.com, you simply need to click on the website and hit "join." You will be asked a series of questions, including your telephone number. Jobslover adds a disclaimer that it will not share your telephone number with anyone. Since I joined this website, I have not received any telephone calls from any solicitors of the products I've surveyed.
The surveys are fairly simple and generally take only 10 minutes to complete. The one drawback of this site is that you have to wait a few days to participate in surveys and you can only participate by responding to your e-mail. If you have a spam folder on your e-mail account, you may miss some e-mails, so it is wise to add the website to your general address book.
Throughout the year, various sweepstakes are awarded to lucky prize winners. These range from cash prizes to luxury vacations. If you are lucky enough to win a sweepstakes, Jobslover will notify you by e-mail.
Some of the marketing companies that Jobslover.com represents include the Marketing Research Association, the American Marketing Association, American Association for Public Opinion Research, The Council of American Survey Research Organizations and the Advertising Research Foundation. Unlike some disreputable online survey firms, Jobslover.com is a legitimate marketing website. They will never ask you for any money and are careful to keep your private information private.
If you are just starting to explore the world of online surveys, Jobslover.com is a comfortable place to start. After you join, an e-mail will be sent to your account to confirm your membership. Simply click on the link provided and look for e-mails from Jobslover in your mailbox. You are under no obligation to take any of the surveys or enter any sweepstakes and you can be assured of your privacy.

I had it installed already.
There aren't many sites using Silverlight yet, but I'd guess that the number will grow pretty quickly in the coming months. The Olympics video site was a pretty stunning demonstration of Silverlight's superiority to Flash, and I'm certain that a lot of people took notice. There will now be the inevitable time lag while people ramp up their Silverlight support and complete site development, but it's coming.
The video superiority of Silverlight over Flash was truly stunning. Silverlight was damned near broadcast quality video. Flash looks like something shot with a 10 year old cell phone camera.

twidget on "not all my ram is showing up"
Looks like you've got it covered. I would try re-seating the memory (taking it out and putting it back in) and pay close attention to how it goes in. ALSO, with one hand, be sure to touch the bare metal frame of the PC the entire time you touch any circuit card assembly (to include your memory sticks) to reduce the chances of static electrity damage to the chips themselves. If that doesn't work, try using the onboard video, and removing the geforce to see if that might have caused a problem (I doubt it, but dumber things have happened). After that, its going to take someone with more G-2 than I have.

I too had the "dead computer syndrome. Took case off of W series emachines (2005) w 250Watt powersupply and tested on/off button - was ok. removed power supply and found small silver cover blown off capacitor...burn marks arounf the center of the power supply board. Might just buy a replacement power supply for $35.00 and see what happens. If there is a class action count me in please. I have a second e machines but it will undoubtably be my last if the bad power supply has taken out the mother board. E machines has an obligation to let all us registered customers know when a problem like this exists so we can make the decisiion to proactively replace the power supply beofre failure or take our chances. The class action should be for intentionally withholding information that resulted in complete failure of the computer. John Kay

the Compaq presario 5003US has integrated video; no video card to replace.
You're going to have to go through some troubleshooting steps, but it is just as likely to be the power supply failing on you. Start by looking there, though. Here's a website you can use as a resource: http://www.fonerbooks.com/power.htm
That computer is 7-8 years old by now; power supplies don't fail all at once and the signs of failure vary somewhat.

capitalist on "RE: AMD responds, wants you to buy AMD"
I agree that AMD's financial condition is not relevant. Even if they're acquired, their products won't go away.
There are a lot of gamers who can't afford high-end systems, so a review of a mid-range gaming system is certainly interesting. However, it would be much more interesting to see a comparison of two systems in the same price range, rather than a mid-range system versus a high-end one. If you're going to do an AMD vs. Intel review (which would be great), I'd like to request a comparison of the AMD system with an Intel system in the same price range in addition to (or instead of) a comparison with a high-end Intel system. There aren't too many readers who will ever buy a $1000 processor . . . .

Smart move. They should never have tried to handle sales themselves; they're not a sales organization. They should also sell to distributors such as Ingram Micro and Tech Data, though.

Lolita on "RE: Opinion: Who would buy an AMD based computer?"
I've actually found AMD to be more reliable for me than anything I owned by Intel. Whenever I shop for a new computer, I always opt for AMD, or install it myself afterwards. I do a lot more than AIM and Facebook on my current setup, and have never been let down. I actually have a family member who works at Intel, but I'm still content to stick with my AMD.

macblondie on "RE: Make cheap calls from your Mac or PC with magicJack"
Just wanted to mention that there are a lot of features of MagicJack that will NOT work on Mac. You can not add contacts, or see recent calls or switch to a headphone set. The Dial Pad is different from the one you see above, in XP has a lot of other features. I've also had problems dialing from an actual phone. From my Mac I can only dial from their pad.
Also worth noting Verizon blocks some calls, so some numbers can not be called from Magicjack.
I still like the service because I use it for travel, but those are things worth knowing...

haanul on "RE: AMD responds, wants you to buy AMD"
I always go for the most bang for the buck. Whether it's Car/CPU/etc. I've used more AMD than any other in my system, because AMD offered most bang for the buck.
The PC's I used consist of the following CPU's.
AMD 386-40Mhz -> I wanted to buy Intel 486-66Mhz; but didn't have the money.
Cyrix 6x86MZ PR166+ -> I wanted to buy Intel Pentium 200Mhz OC' to 233Mhz; but didn't have the money.
AMD K2-450Mhz -> I was tempted to buy Intel Celeron 266Mhz; but didn't because of the total cost including a 440BX.
AMD Duron 1200Mhz AMD AthlonXP 1700+ OC' to 1826Mhz (Throughbred-Socket A)
AMD Athlon64 2800+ OC' to 2250Mhz (New Castle-Socket 754)
AMD Athlon64 X2 4400+ OC' to 3002Mhz (Brisbane-Socket AM2)
Seeking the value is more obvious on the video cards I used.
Tseng ET6000 (This and Matrox offered the best 2D.)
S3 3D Virge (This was the king of benchmarks.)
3DFX Banshee (This was the first 2D+3D card from 3DFX, but was so so.)
nVidia GeForce 4 Ti4200 (The very best bang for the buck for a long time.)
nVidia GeForce 7600GT
ATI HD4850 (Simply WOW. Thank you Red team.)
I believe anyone who wants most performance for their money would buy non-Intel. (I want VIA Nano powered Netbook instead of Atom powered.)
Anyway, now I work in IT, and in position to recommend what to buy. I did recommend Intel-Wolfdale for engineers who run complicated simulations. To them, spending extra a few hundred dollars for little performance gain is worth it, because their salary is high. For all others, (including servers I buy), my choice is AMD. Again, it's because it offers best value.
I am aware that AMD is having a little hard time financially, (like many other corporations). Although I think it's seasonal, I want to buy AMD product even more. That's because I want them to be competing with Intel and nVidia. More competition brings down the price, and gives me more value for the money.

I count 6 Halo novels, and thats not counting 'The Halo Graphic Novel' and all four issues of 'Halo: Uprising'. So theres actually quite a bit of material, but it doesn't matter because the books are based around the games anyway, not vice-versa. Another thing, Microsoft still owns some equity in Bungie, so I think it's very doubtful that bungie will ever exclusively make Mac-only games. It would make no logical sense anyway, who the rubber duck buys a Mac to play games these days? Don't believe everything you read on the internet my friend.

AlexaCushing on "RE: Internet addiction an epidemic in the UK?"
Matthew, I think you are splitting hairs here.
My entire sense of time has changed, because of the Internet. I want information, connection, answers NOW. Five seconds now feels like a minute. I honestly do sleep with my Blackberry under the pillow, but I've stopped reading it at 3am. I know many people like this . . . I see them in the elevator in the morning . . . looking, scrolling, searching on their BB. We don't speak.
We techno-types want to know what has happened in the last five minutes, as if our lives will be seriously altered by the news.
To keep things simple, the challenge of an addiction is not being able to give it up. We led our daily lives just fine before the Internet. Take that Blackberry away from me, shut down my Internet connection, I am totally stressed. That's what the research confirms. I don't see your point that these human physiological responses are any different from needing a drink.

SalCan on "RE: AMD responds, wants you to buy AMD"
Interesting post Rick. Some things that I would point out...
1) I don't think that most people are interested in a company's financial position. If the processor works then it works, end of story. It's not like AMD's stock price affects how well their Phenoms work. Something like selling off a fab could possibly have an effect, but until I see any evidence of that it's not something that I'd be worried about. As for AMD lowering quality standards as a result of monetary problems (see first article, "fringe parts that is close to tolerance...") that is troubling but I don't think this is affecting established processors. It might affect cutting edge stuff that just has to get out the door, but if you are buying a value machine I think your are OK.
2) While I'll take AMD's word on the pricing (they wouldn't lie about that) I think their best case is made in the value segment, such as 780G and Puma notebooks. This is in a price range where people don't really care about that hardware they have so long as it runs. We have seen solid performance from their integrated graphics solutions. 790GX has done better than expected, but like you said, the gaming segment is not one whee value plays as large a role, especially when you are dropping over $500 on video cards.
3) Also: QX965= $999. X4 9950 = $289. so that comparison is flawed no matter how you look at it. Chip for chip I don't think anyone at AMD is claiming that their processors are outperforming Intel's. They have moved to a platform approach, which may not be very satisfying for us enthusiasts, but makes sense for a lot of people. Even so, with a Q6600 at $189 right now and the Q9400 at $274 Intel has some more reasonably priced offerings.

Hi guys,
I accidentally posted this on the wrong forum topic, so i'm re-posting it here.
I downloaded and installed the iphone theme from [url]bestiphonetheme.com[/url] and ran into a problem that maybe you could help with. I'm using a HTC 6800 with Windows 6.1, and I installed Wisbar Advance, Wisbar Advance Desktop, and the two iphone theme files. After downloading and running the app, I only can see the iphone theme for the top and bottom bar, but the main "theme" which is the fish scene, doesn't show up...just my regular screen.
Their customer service told me that the problem is the Wisbar Advance Desktop not loading the theme right, but I didn't get a solution from the developer's at Wisbar either.
Could ANYONE please help, lol. I'm at my wits end.
Thanks,

If both were 45 nm, it would look very bad for AMD. However X4 9950 is 65 nm, so it actually doesn't look as bad. In fact, should we have expected a larger difference?

I spoke with AMD this morning. They are going to correct the title of the video, and they said they would be sending me the identical machine to their video, Phenom X4 9950 + two ATI Radeon 4870s to verify the claims made in their videos, specifically 160% faster graphics (compared to a single ATI Radeon), ability to do 2560 x 1600 at 60fps or greater, and I'll put their equipment up side-by-side with the equivalent high-end Intel machine (as stated in the video) to see if there are any noticeable differences.
I want to thank AMD for their quick response in addressing the misleading error in the title of the video, and for agreeing to send me their equipment.

ojdidit84 on "RE: Opinion: Who would buy an AMD based computer?"
Personally, I've never had any problems with an AMD system and I've been building AMD pc's since my first Athlon XP 1800+ back in 2004. I currently have an AMD Phenom 9850BE OC'd to 3GHz on air @ only 1.3675 volts on an Asus M3A32-MVP. A fully AMD based system. It runs perfectly fine and I have no lag on my system nor do I have any issues with Vista or my computer crashing. I've never had a computer crash on me. I honestly don't know what people do to their computers for them to crash all the time. Now, I'm not a nay-sayer of Intel. I actually have a core2 laptop from IBuyPower.com and it works great. I agree with number 7 that AMD needs to get to these vendors and salesmen and teach them how to sell their product correctly. Even back when AMD processors were outperforming Intel before Core2, Intel still sold more because they invested a good amount of money into marketing. Who doesn't remember the Blue Man Group Intel commercials? Good marketing goes a long way. And I think that saying you don't feel safe putting and AMD chip in your pc is a little far-fetched. Oh, and a 2.6GHz pc whether it be AMD or Intel is now a low-end computer unless the rest of the hardware doesn't match up to the cpu. Yes, AMD is hemmoraging money out of every asset that they have but a lot of loss of business for them has also come from unfair competition from Intel that has recently come to light in the past few months and the lengths they went to to keep AMD down as in shipping software to crash AMD systems and trying to by out companys to deny AMD any business at all in many countries. All that aside, I've never never had any problem with my AMD system and I'm a gamer but I also don't need 160fps in any game. Intel got it right with the Core2 and now Nahelem is on its way and is supposed to be even more potent so we should wait and see what AMD can do with its 45nm process. At the moment yes, Intel is on top as far as the high end/high performance in which AMD really doesn't exist at the moment but as far as the mid to low range performance per dollar, AMD is perfectly fine. Just think, if AMD does go under which hopefully it won't, we'll be looking at paying outrages prices for Intel technology because with no competitor, the prices will go through the ceiling. And just because your motherboard craps out on you does that mean that the AMD hardware is faulty? And the fact that your notebook take a lickin' and keeps on tickin has naught to do with it being Intel based. It has to do with the good build quality of the laptop, its materials, and other components including the motherboard. If you were to take that same notebook that you have with AMD components, you would more than likely have the same result in durability. It has nothing to do with what cpu it uses. And crashes aren't always attributed to hardware. Anyway, I'm rambling but I made my point. It just seems that on all of these sites reviewing AMD cpu's, they always come up with some bogus garbage like how they could only overclock the cpu that I have to 2.7 @ 1.4 volts @ xbit labs and you've seen my numbers up top. A little more research needs to be done with these labs before writing these articles. I understand that its an opinion but a lot of what was said just didn't add up to me because I run my full AMD system with no problems at all.

ojdidit84 on "RE: AMD responds, wants you to buy AMD"
I'd have to say that when people go out to buy a computer, whether the company is losing money doesn't matter in the slightest bit. All they care about is if its going to work and if it's going to last. And it's also true that the 9650 should perform better than the 9950 since it is on a 45nm process while AMD is on a 65nm process. Also, in the video, they did show what hardware was used at the end of the video so it clearly shows that they weren't X3 and DUO. Gamers are only a small portion of the market and a large portion of them are budget gamers. But hey, it's clear where you loyalty lies and shows in the articles so it's like talking to a brick wall. As there is really no high end for AMD as of yet, in my opinion, in the low to mid range they still perform well especially in comparison with similarly priced cpu's and platforms. We'll just have to see what they can come up with on the 45nm front as well as the core i7. As far as AMD, there's nothing wrong with being second and we do still need competition so we don't see prices shoot through the roof like it most likely would with no competition around. Even if they are the #1 performer at the moment, we still need AMD for our sake even if you're not a supporter of their products.

I learned to play real piano on the NES (Nintendo Entertainment System) using the Miracle Piano, an 8-note polyphonic, touch sensitive full-size 5+ octave keyboard with a sustain "pedal", pre general midi instrument sounds and drums, and both NES and MIDI connectors. (Later, there was a PC version.)
It combined real lessons, exercises based on my performance in the current lesson, and a few games that cemented rhythm and note-reading skills. THAT was a useful Nintendo product.
Yamaha made a wonderful plastic sax that could use recorder/flute fingerings and had MIDI around the same time.
That was in the very early 90s. It's 2008 and this is what's being offered? I hope Wii Music at least teaches rhythm.
Then again, I scoffed at the Guitar Hero controller when I first saw it sitting on the Best Buy floor before the game demos were set up.

kev_a_swing_dancer on "RE: TiVo launches the ultimate DVR"
Cool, but it does NOT support satellite or any external cable box. All of the HD TiVos have neither A/V inputs nor IRBlaster/serial channel changing outputs to support other sources. The new simultaneously-announced DirecTV (DirecTiVo again?) satellite box will be capacity-upgradeable by 3rd parties.
Perhaps it is still possible to do a timed recording on an analog channel (3/4) in standard definition from the antenna out of a satellite box, but that's it. Satellite boxes, AFAIK, can't output over-the-air or cable digital formats.
I have a Series 1 Philips and I almost took the plunge for an HD unit when I was going to be gone for the second half of the olympics but held off. I use Weeknees for my upgrades but am glad to have this option. It'll be $350 extra for the 1TB disk, THX certification (might have only required their payment) and backlit remote. (I think I had a $50 rebate for a while; maybe not).

jonlgeek on "RE: Samsung gives Blu-ray 5 years, focuses on OLED"
I agree, this is VERY short sighted. So, Samsung is going to spend all this money on developing these great new HDTVs using OLED, but what is going to play on these great TVs? Broadcast TV is still only broadcast mainly 720p. How are you going to get good content onto these TVs that is true 1080p? And don't say DLC because at the state we are in now, that is complete BS. There is still a good percentage of Americans who don't even have broadband let alone a fast enough connection to download these movies. The people are going to say flash drives. Sure, if 50GB flash drives (or even 25GB at a minimum) costed 10 cents to make. Just the materials would cost more than 10 cents. I cannot see Blu-ray dying in this generation of media formats. I can see that this may be our last disk media. The successor to Blu-ray will probably be flash drives or holographic storage, but this is probably going to be at least 10 years away.

Picked components for a system from the EGG. They are:
BIOSTAR TFORCE TA790GX A2+ - $108.96

OCZ Platinum 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 - $94.99 (after MIR)
Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 (Perpendicular Recording) ST3400620AS 400GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s - $64.99
POWERCOLOR AX4870 512MD5-H Radeon HD 4870 512MB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16- $244.99 x 2 - $507.92 (after MIR)
Total plus shipping is $956.85
I left off the case, monitor, keyboard & mouse becasue they will be the same for the other system and their costs will offset each other. And if you're like me, you use the ones you already have instead of buying new ones,because those are the most often upgraded parts of a gaming system. So you see the APPROXIMATE $900 price tag IS ballpark close. Of course $950 would be a CLOSER approximation, but prices change from day to day, or perhaps they decided on DDR2 800 and not 1066 or maybe a smaller hdd. Who knows? I took high end components and still came close to $900. I have a system with a Phenom X3 and an HD 4850 and I play Crysis at 1680 x 1050 and that system is under $700WITH a 22" LCD and high power case included!
And lastly, your final paragraph looks like absolute fanboyism. Everyone knows that AMD has been around for only 1 yr less than Intel and has been beaten down by the Blue Team for years. Yet they continue to persevere. First with 64bit x86, first with integrated memory controller, etc, etc. They're not going anywhere.

insanex on "RE: MacBook Air gets hacked in 2 minutes at CanSecWest"
Guys (and gals),
Come on. Flaming for the sake of argument is moot. Sure, there are fanboys of every variation. I read some lengthy comments on theregister the other day about this. Apple's OS is arguably more stable in some scenarios and more powerful in some applications than Linux or Windows. However, being that I use all 3 regularly, I think that rule applies to each OS. Windows does many things better than Mac (uh, games?) Heck, even Linux runs games like Countrer-Strike: Source with a bit of configuration. But games are not everything. I sure as hell don't make money playing games. But for things like system administration, Windows takes the cake for my network.
But I digress. All this pointless discussion about who is better than who based on the computer and software you use is just stupid. I know true Apple-heads can be very condescending to members of the 90+% crowd - I used to work for one. But when did personal preference become a standard for judging the value of one's intelligence over another's? So many ideaologies exist today, each with its own convincing arguments. The truth is that each OS has its strong point and being married to one over the other without considering the fact that it might have some flaws that other OSes don't have is missing the whole point of being in IT or design or whatever. You can't have such an open mind that your brains fall out so to speak, but I know in my job I have to be ready to change if something better comes down the pike. Or if something already is better, I need to be able to recognize that and not be blindly biased based on being tied to a specific user group or software just because I want to be part of the 'in' crowd. Come on people. New and better stuff is coming out all the time and you know 10+ years from now we'll all be talking about how much OS X 10.x sucked versus 12.0 or whatever. Fighting over this stuff is pointless.

TX, USA ( Geek ) – September 5, 2008 – There are all kinds of submission services around today, but when you take a closer look at the services they offer and how they conduct business most of these companies may not help the average person at all in getting their website listed throughout various directories and websites.
SubmitEdge is not only a submission service but a SEO firm as well. What does SEO have to do with getting websites listed with quality links in the proper industry? To understand what the search engines desire on any website is the key to hiring ranking and unique links. The only way to achieve such success is with a company that knows the ins and outs of link building and is up to date on the latest search engine optimization skills.
SubmitEdge is that company. This company provides SEO Submission Services with submissions such as directories, articles, search engines, social bookmarking, DMOZ listing, blog reviews, link baiting, and guaranteed Google indexing. Along with these submission services SubmitEdge offers other SEO services such as keyword research, search engine optimization for all the pages of a website, XHTML validation, rank tracking, and PPC managing.
The importance of link building is an essential ingredient for anyone wanting to attract visitors, have their website noticed, and of course, bringing in unique visitors that desire the information or product the website has to offer. Relevant links are the only way in which to accomplish this feat.
SubmitEdge has features that are not available with other similar companies such as manually submissions. This one feature is at the top of the list to ensure the submission is not thrown off to the way side and considered to be spam. Whether you believe this or not, many companies use software programs instead of human interaction, the search engines, and websites notice this and the information is destroyed.
Not only does SubmitEdge offer personal and manual submissions, but also the staff ensures that all links you receive are one-way permanent links for the website.

MikaA on "RE: Opinion: Who would buy an AMD based computer?"
To answer your original question: any not-geek presented with one. It doesn't matter if the thousands or maybe even tens of thousands geeks in the world went and bought an Intel one because they can get a frame or two better performance in game XX. What matters are the millions of "normal" people who walk into a store to get "a computer".
What a normal person needs is a computer for websurfing and sometimes gaming. And basically whatever you carry out of a store costing over $200 will do websurfing and over $500 will do gaming. That is it. If it is absolutely imperative to get 168 frames (when 30 is sufficient) instead of 160 when playing, then yes, you need to turn to a geek and buy something specific. But in any other case you simply don't need to know what is under the hood.
And what AMD needs are sales persons willing to sale their gear and not just the competitor and marketing. Sure, it's easier when everyone is polluted with Core this and Core that to just go along with that. People need to understand "the other" brand is just as good - and thanks to ATI gear, in many cases better.
But, I live in Finland where people don't get millions by suing businesses for selling them hot coffee, so this may be a bit too radical for US folks. Obviously "just as good" is not when you can show an ad telling it isn't - and you can sue for billions!

I agree with RickGeek.
Just try doing some multitasking or open some heavy programs on 2 computers 1 with AMD and the other with Intel processor, with the same specs and you'll see the difference.
AMD might claim that their processors are faster, but in no way they have the stability and multitasking that Intel processors offer.

ee92 on "RE: Opinion: Who would buy an AMD based computer?"
RG, you sound like me 2+ years ago. Back when folks were accusing me of being a raving Intel fanboy. times change
BTW, I'm also writing this on my old single core decrepid AMD FX-57 system.
AMD has been in a death spiral for the last 2 years, loosing $100's of millions per quarter for the last 8-9 quarters in a row. They haven't built a new fab in 3-4 years. Outsorcing their silicon really hasn't helped them much.
2007 profit margin was a whopping -55%, which means they lost $1.55 for every $1.00 they made. Still better then theover -90% profit margin they had in 2006.
God knows how they intend to pay off the >$5B they shelled out for ATI. They've restructured that debt once already, so they're not going to be able to do that again. Their current market cap is ~$3.5,so if they sold EVERYTHING it's likely they still couldn't pay of their debts.
The LARGE numbers are so remarkably negative what we should really be talking about here is how exactly is AMD even keeping the lights on? Where is the money coming from for them to keep operating?
Could you loose 55 cents on every dollar and 1/3 of your networth per year for 2-3 years in a row and still pay your bills?
Also, If you were Dell or HP would you enter into any long term contracts with AMD, knowing they may go bankrupt in any given quarter? I hear HP's server group is, but I think they are nuts and someone is letting their anti-Intel bias make a really questionable business decision.
I thought we'd see AMD cease to exist in 2007, now we're sneaking up on 2009 and they are still going, bleeding every step of the way, but still going. I find this remarkable, and very interesting, how are they doing it?
I'd be interested in knowing how you think they are doing this in light of their finacial numbers. I'd just don't see how they can loose that much for that long and still be in business, obviously I'm missing something pretty significant.

ShadowPenguin on "RE: Opinion: Who would buy an AMD based computer?"
The average consumer looking for value doesn't care what their processor is. But out of the 3 colleges I've visited lately, I've seen core2 laptops everytime. These friends of mine aren't even tech savvy, they don't even use their laptop to its full potential, but they shelled out the extra dough for an intel. Why? Half ass trained bestbuy sales people who will claim that the intel dual cores are a gazillion times faster for everything. Because God knows that for your facebook and aim usage, an intel dual core is gonna rock an amd dual core -_-
How is AMD going to recover? If they can squeeze out more money I'd say train the people who actually sell their product to plug their product. The average computer consumer will believe what the "trained computer specialist" at their local electronics store is going to tell them. So you've got to make sure that "specialist" says your name or you lose.

ShadowPenguin on "RE: Dell goes netbook with the Inspiron Mini 9"
It's funny because I was just talking about this with my school's computer programming director. He was all excited because his wife is getting him an Asus eeepc or whatever, and he already has a decently high end HP tablet. And he is just so into the fact that it's tiny and he can just slip it in his bag with such little weight. he seems convinced that it'll make taking notes, blogging, and instant messaging so much easier for him. But from my perspective, the damn things got a battery life of 3 hours, that wouldn't even last through one of my night classes. How is that supposed to be convenient? Sure 8 cell batteries are gonna be developed for it and that might make a difference to me, but as of right now, I don't understand the Netbook craze.

OpenSauce on "RE: Opinion: Who would buy an AMD based computer?"
I build bespoke PC's for business/personal, and all are AMD based.
Why?
Because most want value for money, not ultimate performance.
In my experience, motherboards for AMD are cheaper and/or have more features than ones for Intel (e.g. RAID or decent graphics on newer AMD boards).
This has to be factored in overall build cost.
However, on the laptop front, Intel based ones have the market at the moment.

capitalist on "RE: Opinion: Who would buy an AMD based computer?"
I agree with OpenSauce that AMD processors are a good choice for mid-range systems. AMD definitely has the advantage in price/performance.
If performance is more of a concern and price is less important, then you should go with Intel.
In my experience, both AMD and Intel processors are stable and reliable. I don't have any concerns about this, and I haven't encountered any "fringe parts" with heat or other problems (aside from known bugs such as TLB).
Of course, it's always a good idea to avoid low-end motherboards regardless of the processor. For example, many of the 780G motherboards are intended strictly for low-end systems and are unsuitable even for the mid-range. 790GX boards are a much better choice.
As to the business end, it's possible AMD will go bankrupt and be acquired, though this seems increasingly unlikely. There's an excellent chance that AMD will merge or be acquired even if they remain solvent, due to general consolidation in the industry. I don't see either of these possibilities as a problem, since an acquirer would almost certainly continue producing processors. The brand name doesn't matter.
I do wish AMD had the cash to make a few strategic acquisitions, though. For example, I'd like to see them pick up a physics solution.

THANKS IN ADVANCE GUYS - I am purchasing a SONY HDRSR11 Camcorder 60GB and I am wanting to take video footage of used cars on a virtual testdrive and virtual showroom so that I can send it out to potential clients. What would be the best way to get this footage to the client? These were my ideas - yet I need a cheap, yet good quality way of doing this.
1. YouTUBE - yet after spending money on a HD good quality kit I think the youtube viewing quality is quite poor!
2. Set up an area on our website where the cars have the fooatge attached to a model number and still image and when the customer clicks on the link they can see the footage off our site - this has not been built into the website (very simple website too!) and will be quite expensive I would imagine!
3. Send via email? Surely the footage would be toooooo big? Zipping??
Any recommendations are very welcomed!

jeffguy on "RE: Review: LG Rumor for Sprint"
Ok, I want to give a fair review here. I've done a lot of research and spent some serious time with this new phone.
I bought the LG Rumor because it had the keyboard and I am glad I did. It is so much easier to type on the keyboard than the numeric keypad! And I can slide the phone open and closed at any time without effecting what I'm doing. That means I can go back and forth without problems and it instantly changes the display into landscape and back. And it's probably one of the least expensive QWERTY keyboard phones avaliable.
I found some serious drawbacks and some extremely nice work-arounds.
1) Sprint makes you pay for wallpapers (they call them screen savers - which they are not - nevertheless) and ringtones. You can't stick your own in there - not even with a USB cable. And I don't mean just pay for them, you have to pay several dollars for a picture or a 10 second ringtone! And their web interface to buy them is slow and buggy (many links just don't work).
I found a solution to this irritation. Go to mobile17.com and upload your own pictures (jpg or gif files at 176x220 resolution) and ringtones (wave files or midi files) into your phone for free. I did it and it worked great. Even cooler, I made some really great animated wallpapers with my name for my phone for free at reddodo.com and it looks so professional. Just go with the default size and use mobile17.com to upload the animated gif files to your phone. Another solution was to use Windows Movie Maker and ad pictures, videos, and sounds and then upload them to the Micro-SD card (or use a USB cable). You can choose video's as a ringtone or wallpaper but not images, mp3 files, or midi. As a side note, it only has 16 meg on the phone so be careful. I loaded mine up so I have 1 meg left free and it's plenty. Go to "My Content", "", "Memory Status" to see how much memory you've used.
2) It does not come with a memory card or USB cable.
You'll want to purchase a 2 gig (I was told that 4 gig works but is much slower) MicroSD card for under $10. Patriot is a good brand and has worked well for me.
For the USB cable, do a Google search for "lg rumor usb cable" (without the quotes of course). Also, both the MicroSD card and USB cable are sold in stores if you don't want to wait.
3) The headphone jack is mono and all music plays only mono. I wouldn't recommend it for a music player. Lectures or audio books work great. I will say that the speaker isn't too bad and Sprint is offering "Sprint Music Center" application for free and it gives you 10 commercial free radio stations on your phone. That's actually pretty cool.
(Note, you'll have to download it from "Get New Applications" using your phone and make sure it's still free.)
4) If you want to back up your contacts, you have to pay Sprint $10 a month for their contacts backup plan. What a joke.
Instead, I use "DataPilot Software" from DataPilot.com (it's also sold here on Amazon.com) to back up my contacts. A side benefit is that it allows me to get my laptop on the internet (even though it's very slow) remotely using that USB cable. I just got the software but they have a package that includes the USB cable. Be aware that it didn't work for me (AT ALL) until I did the automatic update. I guess they fixed it recently.
5) GPS has issues. The "Sprint Navigation" software is SLOW. When I say slow... I mean slow enough to cause issues. Sometimes, it's so slow, it's just unusable... and for an additional $10 a month, it's a shame. Plus, sometimes the GPS doesn't work at all and I'm in a huge city. When it works, it's awesome.
6) The picture quality isn't so great because you can't adjust the jpg compression and there's no flash so it really needs a lot of lighting. No work-a-round for this one.
Ok... now the good stuff:
Loopt is a cool little application that comes free and it allows you to use the GPS. It doesn't give directions but I made a Favorite to maps.google.com and it works well.
The games are alright... a little pricey for cell games at $5-$7 a pop. I would never "rent" them by month and that seems to be the default - be careful about this when purchasing.
I would HIGHLY recommend downloading the game "Orcs & Elves" by ID Software. It's like a little cell phone version of World of Warcraft (it also has a cheat code - press 3666 while in the menu). Bejeweled and SimCity are pretty slick too and will provide hours of entertainment.
I really like that my phone checks my Google mail, Hotmail, Yahoo mail, and my POP work mail for me. I set all of them up in there. Nice. And it also has Yahoo chat, Microsoft instant messenger, and AOL instant messenger built in.
It's easy to navigate through menus while you are already talking on the phone. That's nice when you first get the phone and can't remember the number. lol
Last bit of advice, you can reconfigure what the main directional keys do and I recommend changing them to what you use. I have mine set up for Games, Voice Memos, Scheduler (built in calendar), and the calculator (which looks nice). Just go to "Settings/Tools" -> "Settings" -> "More..." -> "Navigation Keys" to change it.
Oh... I almost forgot... pick up a cigarette lighter charger so you can charge your phone in the car. You'll be glad you did. I, also, got protective film for my screen and you can't tell it's there.
I really love this phone. The battery is lasting a very long time for me, the sound is clear, and the price is right.

Patrik59 on "Blue Screen in Windows XP, help"
I just graduated from college and the lap top is built into the tuition. That said, I have none of the program disks, so Windows XP, all the Adobe programs, and all of that were owned by the university. This means if I wipe the hard drive, then I'll lose all software and programs.
I can't start windows in a regular mode. I have Windows XP and an IBM think pad. Everytime I start it up, it gets through most of the boot up process and then a blue screen appears saying that a problem has been found and windows is being shut down to avoid damage to the computer. It begins a physical memory dump that goes for 100 units and then the computer restarts.
I want to avoid wiping the hard drive at all costs. Could someone please direct me in the right direction?

rowantrollope on "RE: Symantec: Norton Internet Security 2009 is"
Hi Matthew,
I wanted to respond to you on your article, and to the other posters here. I am in charge of the development and engineering team who build these products.
I have been with the company since the early days (1991), and worked on Norton Utilities as my first product. My goal since taking over the R&D team in 2007 was to give our users the best Internet Security and AntiVirus product in the industry. My engineering team has worked very hard on that goal, and I think we have made a lot of progress.
WRT performance, I agree with you completely that real-world testing is key. We looked at 16 key metrics this year as our benchmarks, including: boot time, IE launch time, install time, uninstall time, shutdown time, suspend time, resume time, file copy time, HTTP download time, scan time, etc. These were in addition to the metrics we looked at that have perceived impact from the users perspective, including UI launch time, size of files on disk, amount of memory consumed, number of registry keys used, etc. I think users should look at performance testing from real-world 3rd party entities. I would be delighted if you tested our products and reported your findings.
I would also note that our goal this year was that any user installing our product would immediately be able to see the difference in our product performance. This was no easy feat, but our engineers really delivered. I think if you install it, and if any user installs it, they should be able to see the progress that we have made.
To any of the posters/readers here, if performance is important to you, you are free to take a look at our latest 2009 version and judge for yourself.
Best,
Rowan
p.s. Concerning uninstall: Our uninstall is just as fast and clean as the new installer. Our new installer takes 47 seconds.

I checked the device manager and it says the video controller is not functioning properly. I checked the driver for the graphics card and it says it is functioning properly. My monitor is a Sony SDM-HX93.

It has integrated graphics which are not terribly powerful but I thin you would be ok for the most part. If gaming is important you might want to consider the Satellite A305-S6861

kev_a_swing_dancer on "RE: Can you live without your DVR?"
With my TiVo and cable DVR, I am always free to go out at night. I'm also always able to take a phone call. TV used to keep me home when live friends were out there.
I can capture some series I think I don't want to miss, and if they accumulate for a year or two (I have 344 basic hours on the TiVo) without being watched, I can release them. It has let me learn to value people over programs.
I do try to watch relevant commercials unless I'm in a serious hurry.
I hate the cost of my cell phone and the challenge of getting the headset on so that I don't experience the intense eye pain and headache caused by holding my CDMA phone to my head.
I envy those people who don't watch any TV. For me, a DVR is the next best thing. (And it sure beats the the hundreds of unwatched VHS cassettes I found I had when I had to move 5 years ago.)
My computer-based attempts have been more time-consuming than VHS. I have all the parts for high def MythTV (Mythbuntu) so I'll see if I can save some cable money since most of my favorite shows are on network TV. Aligning the antenna could put the kabosh on that. (How will people survive HDTV with having to change their indoor antenna for every channel?) All I really need is Boston Legal. (and damn RCN cable for encoding over-the-air HD).
With the cell phone paling in sound quality to a land line, I'm surprised it counts as indespensible "HOUSEHOLD" technology; but I do understand. BTW, I tried the ThinkGeek wired classic handset (like a phone from the 1960s) and its microphone quality was poor.

Russia holds the lead in the space race and has a Moon mission starting 2015and they will also start their Mars mission without the United States. The US is way behind on the space race and the Russia's are clearly ahead of us but also, lets not forget Russia has still a space shuttle programwhich has never been closed (in Russian)because Russia built 13 space shuttles, more than the US built. Russia has 2 new Space Shuttles that that maybe used before 2015 as a cargo missions to boost the Moon & Mars missions.

The Perl UTF-8 and utf8 Encoding Mess
I've been hacking on some Perl code that extracts data that comes
from web users around the world and been stored
into MySQL (with no
real encoding information, of course). My goal it to generate
well-formed, valid XML that can be read
by another tool.
Now I'll be the first to admit that I never really took the time to
like, understand, or pay much attention to all the changes in Perl's
character and byte handling over the years. I'm one of those
developers that, I suspect, is representative of the majority (at
least in this self-centered country). I think it's all stupid and
complicated and should Just Work... somehow.
But at the same time I know it's not.
Anyway, after importing lots of data I came across my first bug.
Well, okay... not my first bug. My first bug related to this
encoding stuff. The XML parser on
the receiving end raised hell about some weird characters coming
in.
Oh, crap. That's right. This is the big bad Internet and I forgot
to do anything to scrub the data so that it'd look like the sort of
thing you can cram into XML and expect to maybe work.
A little searching around managed to jog my memory and I updated my
code to include something like this:
use Encode;
...
my $data = Encode::decode('utf8', $row->{'Stuff'});
And all was well for quite some time. I got a lot farther with
that until this weekend when Perl itself began to blow up on me,
throwing fatal exceptions like this:
Malformed UTF-8 character (fatal) ...
My first reaction, like yours probably, was WTF?!?! How on god's
green earth is this a FATAL error?
After much
swearing, a
Twitter plea, and some reading (thanks Twitter world!), I came
across a section of
the Encode manual page
from Perl.
I'm going to quote from it a fair amount here because I know you're
as lazy as I am and won't go read it if I just link here. The
relevant section is at the very end (just before SEE ALSO) and
titled UTF-8 vs. utf8.
....We now view strings not as sequences of bytes, but as
sequences of numbers in the range 0 .. 2**32‐1 (or in the case of
64‐bit computers, 0 .. 2**64‐1) ‐‐ Programming Perl, 3rd ed.
That has been the perl?s notion of UTF−8 but official UTF−8 is more
strict; Its ranges is much narrower (0 .. 10FFFF), some sequences
are not allowed (i.e. Those used in the surrogate pair, 0xFFFE, et
al).
Now that is overruled by Larry Wall himself.

For what it?s worth, that?s how I?ve always kept them straight in my

Also for what it?s worth, Perl 6 will mostly default to strict but
make it easy to switch back to lax.
Larry
Do you copy? As of Perl 5.8.7, UTF−8 means strict, official UTF−8
while utf8 means liberal, lax, version thereof. And Encode version
2.10 or later thus groks the difference between "UTF−8" and "utf8".
encode("utf8", "\x{FFFF_FFFF}", 1); # okay
encode("UTF‐8", "\x{FFFF_FFFF}", 1); # croaks
"UTF−8" in Encode is actually a canonical name for "utf−8−strict".
Yes, the hyphen between "UTF" and "8" is important. Without it
Encode goes "liberal"
find_encoding("UTF‐8")‐>name # is ?utf‐8‐strict?
find_encoding("utf‐8")‐>name # ditto. names are case insensitive
find_encoding("utf8")‐>name # ditto. "_" are treated as "‐"
find_encoding("UTF8")‐>name # is ?utf8?.
Got all that?
The sound you heard last night was me banging my head on a desk.
Repeatedly.
I mean, how could I have possibly noticed the massive
difference between utf8 and UTF-8?
Really. I must have been on some serious crack.
Sigh!
Needless to say my code now looks more like this:
use Encode;
...
my $data = Encode::decode('UTF-8', $row->{'Stuff'}); ## fuck!
Actually, I was kidding about the "fuck!" I
wouldn't swear
in code. (comments)

Laptops are a "package deal".
If you remove components after the sale, instead of refund they could have turned around and said "you dont want package deal, then we refund the cost of MsWindows and then bill you for uninstallationCosts and then bill you the extra cost of each component when done as non package deal", final result would be the customer has a bill to pay.
When you pay for something as a package deal, then if you are going to not want a part of the package either negoatiate the deal without that part before handing over the money OR put up with it. I'll buy a bundle of DVDs on a special deal and throw out the ones I dont want, I dont go back and ask for a refund of each DVD.

If you are using a PC try going here as well to get your ethernet address if Maya is showing 0000000 or fffffffff.

Then you can just copy it (without the dashes) and paste it onto your aw.dat file.

Sheen160 on "Which is the Best Free Antivirus?"
I joined just to write this so, here it goes.
Don't listen to the post above. Do not, DO NOT, download more than 1 antivirus program. Excluding firewall programs. They will conflict with eachother and cause many problems.
I've used all of these anti-viruses except NOD32. For a good free anti-virus both Avast! and Avira are good. They've caught every virus that's ever gotten on my computer.
For paid, I'd have to go with Kaspersky. It's got a very high detection rate, low false posotive detection rate and doesn't hog your resources. At the moment I'm using Avast! Proffesional. I was satisfied with it but lately it's been popping up these annoying windows asking to allow or deny things that I've been using for months now. It's not too bad on hogging resources. I tried BitDefender on my desktop but then for some reason it wouldn't delete. And other antivirus programs wouldn't run because it was technically still installed. I had to reformat my whole computer. And on a personal note I hate Norton. So many things have gotten past it and it hogs all your resources. So all-in-all I'd go with Kaspersky.

The demise of a magazine like SmartPhone and Pocket PC Magazine is sad although the possibility of hard-copy magazines and newspapers is not remote considering the influence being yielded by online magazine nowadays. I am a die-hard magazine reader and while I read review magazines, the convenience of just taking a peek at the new products being offered by technology sites like http://www.pressdigital.com.au/ could not be discounted. I just hope the old-fashioned print publications would not be a thing of the past years from now because not all people are tech-savvy.

djw48 on "Monitor appears in hiberate mode"
Recently my Dell 8300 would not display anything when booting up. The monitor appeared to be in hibernate mode with the amber light on. After unplugging the monitor and seeing that the monitor was fine, Dell suggested it was my video card. I installed a new video card and my computer popped up with some errors. Dell had me reinstall XP. That go me up and running. After re-installing XP, there were many updates to download. Last night I got the the last of them, SP3. This morning, I'm back to my initial problem: a monitor stuck in hibernate mode. Does anyone know if this is a problem with SP3? Also, how do I get something to show up on my screen so I can implement any fix?

karena41 on "Tracing AIM screen names"
My son is away at college for the first time and was on AIM today. He was invited to a 'party' and as soon as he joined, someone took control of his computer. He's on the university system so it's not easy to reach someone today and likely tomorrow to help.
This person said he could see all his files and then took control of one of his Microsoft XBox accounts and changed the user name. (This was reported to Microsoft already). How do we stop this? Can he plug into another person's outlet and avoid this person accessing his computer (it would be another IP address)?
There is now another person who has jumped in the fray and both their screen names are: xsnayke and ygbrenker. Thefirst is the hacker, the second is just harrassing.
I am looking for Hollywood, if you are still around and canhelp. I also printedthe directions for downloading some softwareshown in this string aswell as thehelp from the engineer.

johntmosher on "stupid question"
That is not a stupid question but there are other questions you might want to consider over the Sony / Cannon choice. I personally like Cannon since they don't use Sony's proprietary memory sticks but instead use the more common SD cards or SDHC cards. I have also heard they are more reliable than Sony. A better question for you to consider is what type of camera do you need? DSLR, compact, ultra compact. I had a Cannon SD1000 which was very small and fit in my pocket. It took great shots and the video quality was close to a friends camcorder although with smaller resolution. I lost that in a kayak accident and bought a Cannon A650IS which can be bought for just over $300. It was a larger camera which no longer fit in my pocket but it had 12 megapixels and still took great video. It used four AA batteries and I loved it but it also became a victim of another kayak incident. To replace it I went down to the Cannon A590IS for about $138. It only had two batteries and less megapixels and the optical zoom was not as good as the 650. It tends to lose pictures or videos and I assume it is because of the lower power with only two AA batteries. I really liked the SD1000 and I really liked the A650IS even though it was big. The A590IS I would not reccomend to anyone.
I think the best choice out there would be the Cannon SD1100 - It has even better features than the SD1000 that I liked plus it is so easy to carry. I also bought the Ezonics SD Pro and some extra SD cards to make it easier to download and share pics. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820402003 Using this allows you to save battery life for taking pictures instead of wasting it to download pics. It is very convenient although it is cheaply built. The metal side fell off mine but it still works fine and I can't live without it.
Here is a Newegg link to the SD1100 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16830120253
If you are thinking of DSLR you would have to ask again for advice from someone who does not avoid them like I do. I learned a long time ago that anything with interchangeable lens is a fast road to the poorhouse. (Plus most of them don't take videos)

I looked up that Vaio PCG-6S4M on the Sony support site and it brought me to this link asking for more information: http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/model-find.pl?mdl=PCG-6S4M
See if you can go to that link and find out which model you have. I was going to look for drivers with video drivers being the most frequent cause of the issue you have. Also - Does this problem happen more often when the machine is warm? If so just blow out any dust and try to keep the machine in a cooler location for operation. Update at least the graphics drivers and then whateverother driversyou find thatare out of date.

Hi,
I am facing a problem with my diamond, and I am curious if anyone else has faced this problem. When I am attending a call, I like to be able to access other features, like sms, contacts, notes, documents etc. And my husband's HTC Touch lets him do that soooo easily. But my backlight keeps going off, more than that, the touch feature gets turned off, and I have to either insert/remove the stylus, or I have to press the power button to get the control back on my screen before I can proceed. And that too lasts for barely 5-10 seconds, and I have to repeat this everytime, throughout the call... Has anyone else faced this problem, else I need to talk to my retailer about this...
Also, the speaker volume is really low isn't it? Especially compared to Nokia phones, tho the HTC touch is also soooo much better!!!
Appreciate any help on this guys...

RIPDIMEBAG on "help my computer wont turn on"
-If it was a faulty CPU (<i>Central Processing Unit)</i>, the computer would turn on but would have no display.
-If the ram (<i>random access memory</i>) was faulty, the computer would sound an alarm.
-If the hdd (<i>hard disk drive) </i>was faulty, the computer would say that you have an invalid system disk (hard drive) and ask you to replace the disk.
So if the power supply has been replaced, it would most likely be the power switch is loose or unplugged.
possibly it has accidentally been unplugged when someone was doing some maintenance work on the pc (<i>personal computer</i>)
I recommend that you pick up a screw driver, and connect the power switch pins on your motherboard with you're metal screw driver.

RIPDIMEBAG on "help, novice here, motherboard issue???"
If the sound you are hearing is like an alarm sound, it means no ram or faulty ram.
but if not it could be that your cpu has blown up.
Either caused by the heatsink fan not touching the cpu or the cpu fan is not plugged in-this will cause the cpu to blow up.
YOU CAN RECOVER EVERYTHING FROM THE HARD DRIVE DISK ACCEPT PROGGRAMMS AND WINDOWS.
-1-REMOVE THE HARD DRIVE FROM THE COMPUTER AND SET THE JUMPER SETTING ON THE BACK OF THE HARD DRIVE TO SLAVE.
-2-OPEN UP A SECOND COMPUTER AND CONNECT THE CABLES TO THE HARD DRIVE LIKE HOW IT WAS CONNECTED ON THE FAULTY COMPUTER.
-3-TURN ON THE SECOND COMPUTER AND GO TO MY COMPUTER (if it is windows xp or windows 2000 the computer should automaticly detect the hdd) THE HARD DRIVE SHOULD BE SHOWN AS (E:)
you sould be able to recover info from there.
DONT BOTHER REPLACEING THE CPU BECAUSE IT IS NOT WORTH IT
hope this helps...

OpenSauce on "RE: EA to combat used game sales with online content & services"
As someone who only buys pre-owned cars (when depriciation curve slows), and latterly bought pre-owned games and older 'value' releases...
I read that the high price of new games is mainly down to piracy.
They have about 6 weeks to sell a new game before piracy dents sales, hence £30+
So, in 6 weeks, the money has been made...
Now, they're getting greedy, crying that 2nd hand sales taking away from their already made profits....
Working class families for instance can't afford all new stuff, so now trying to take away 2nd hand sales and get them stuck onlline.

kwilson962 on "help my computer wont turn on"
I have found that when a computer won't turn on, it is usually because of a bad cpu or motherboard. If you want to tackle replacing your motherboard, check out http://www.geeks.com for low priced cpu/motherboards/repair kits/bare-bone systems. Remember to keep yourself grounded, as many components are very sensitive to static electricity. And remember that wrist straps which ground you to the computer case only work if the case itself is grounded (plugged into the wall). You also have to make sure that all of your components and connectors will fit the new motherboard. Check out http://computershopper.com/howto/replace-your-motherboard-200707 for a good discussion of issues related to motherboard replacement. Ideally, just take your computer to a local computer repair shop. Their work is warrantied and it would be a lot faster. Plus, they should be able to diagnose exactly what the problem is.

Apart from backyard parties and tailgating, this will have significant impact for third-world countries. Villages and areas w/o reliable electricity will be able to create their own ice. Not only will this allow people to have ice-box refridgerators, but it also means that supplies that require cooling, e.g. medical vaccinations, can be stored on-site, rather than having to be carried in. Which means health care can improve in these places without significantly costing a whole lot.

crystalattice on "RE: EA to combat used game sales with online content & services"
Guess what? The developers and other people involved aren't entitled to a cut of the used game trade. They received their money from each initial purchase. That was the deal w/ the retailers. If they want a cut of the used games, they need to negotiate that w/ the retailers. It's not the responsiblity of the consumers to pay them.
In other words, copyright infringement (a.k.a. piracy) does take away from their bottom line; people aren't spending money on a fresh copy. However, used games don't affect them at all. The game was purchased by someone originally and that's all the company is entitled to. The "right of first sale" means people can sell items w/o needing the permission of the manufacturer and w/o having to give the manufacturer a cut of the sale.

martjack on "MartJack
Market trends often tend to change responding to the situations. Market trends are sensitive to the media. Print and electronic media have strongly influenced the market so far. Now, it is the turn of information technology to leverage its power to lead the market. The technology which has been interweaving with each and every human being in every walk of life is apparently dividing the world from offline to online. This bifurcation, caused by the technology, at once opened gates for seamless business opportunities in the market. Customers mostly depending upon technology when they want to search for products they want. The product search has become simple with the help of technology.
The unprecedented changes that took place in the Indian apparel market in the recent years have made the market so attractive. Customer tendency is also getting changed in the sense of accepting new trends. As a result, branded apparels are being spanned to the second grade towns even. Sales are depended upon the following of the brand image and customer motivation. MartJack, in this sequence, throws light on the untapped potential of the online apparel market.
Current apparel market scenario
Apparel retailers are moving strategically to grab the potential of the huge market share. They are expanding their presence to far and wide in the market by establishing apparel retail franchise stores.
Generally people collect information before they set out for purchasing things. This impact will be more when it comes to apparels. Information itself is the key factor that can influence the purchase decisions. People used to gather product information from friends, colleagues, newspapers, and TV channels etc. But, now, people tend to collect the needful product information on apparels from internet. Internet today has become the major source of instant information.
The online searches for apparels
People started searching on Google for the needful information on apparels.
The monthly average searches are going like this. With the keyword “clothing” 246000 online searches happened. With “cloths” 165000, with “suits” 90500, and with “women fashion wear” 90500 online searches happened in the year 2007. These statistics are constantly increasing every year. These online searches can substantiate the growing power of online apparel market in India. Would the reputed apparel brands like Pantaloon, Lifestyle, Coutons, Raymond’s, Allen solly, Oxemberg, Peter England and many others be able to capitalize the potential of this online apparel market?
What apparel retailers are missing?
With the above online searches, it is crystal clear that the potential of Indian online apparel market needs to be re-directed to the physical market or to be directly tapped online. If the apparel retailers are not able to expose themselves to the online customers, they would be simply missing the massive potential of rapidly growing online community.
MartJack can divert the online traffic to your store
Reasoning Global eApplications ltd has gone through the current apparel market conditions thoroughly. To divert this huge online traffic to the physical stores, eReasoning has pioneered a high-end e-enabler platform, MartJack, for the dynamic online presence of apparel retailers. MartJack will create local area wise apparel web stores for retailers’ physical franchise stores and brings the online apparel customers close to the apparel retailers. Such strategic online expansion of retailers will make their reach effectively into the online apparel market and ultimately can divert the online traffic to physical apparel franchise retail stores.
From web to physical store
By online search, online apparel customers enter MartJack built apparel retail franchise web stores. At webstore they collect, POS generated real time product information with the help of striking images of all kinds of garments. Likewise, the online apparel customer will be informed thoroughly about the desired garments. Thus well informed online customer can easily reach purchase decision. They choose the nearest franchise retail store with the help of store locator. The digital store map successfully drives them from web to store.
This is the most appropriate way to drive the rapidly increasing online traffic to the physical stores. Aiming at unfolding the immense potential of online market, Reasoning Global eApplications ltd has devised this ready to use dynamic e-enabler platform, MartJack. Likewise MartJack helps you in building online brand image too.

Matthew on "RE: EA to combat used game sales with online content & services"
A lot of developers do not have a choice when it comes to releasing their games. They are signed up with a publisher who only sees the bottom line, wants a release on a specific date (maybe to market alongside a film or sporting event) and the developer is left desperately trying to hit that date.
What you don't hear about is all the changes publishers ask for, details of licenses coming very late in a project and a lack of understanding on the publisher's part that changes mean more time is required.
The high price of games is due mainly to the retailers. If you pay $60 for a game at least $30 of that will go to the retailer (if we are talking game shops here like GameStop). The developer gets very little in terms of royalties from the sale of a game unless it is a top-tier developer such as id. Many developers do work for hire and just get paid for the work.

pmachete on "Computer crashes during games and some videos"
I got my computer Christmas 2007. Built it from scratch (I'm beginning to regret it too.) Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4ghz abit IP35 Pro motherboard ATI Radeon 2600xt 4 gb ram Windows XP 32 bit HP monitor It crashes all the time. So frustrating. The crash is always the same too. All of a sudden without warning my screen goes black and turns off. Then my monitor reads "Monitor going to sleep" and the light goes orange like the computer is off. The sound from whatever crashed it still goes on for around 30 seconds and then begins an endless stutter "duh-duh-duh-duh" until I hard reset my computer. It will crash on a quicktime video, but not a divx video. It will crash on every video game I try, even games from the 90's but somehow plays one game from 2006 fine. It crashes on Second Life I was playing Assassin's Creed today, I was very surprised when the game loaded without crashing. But about 8-10 minutes later it crashes. Now however when I start it up, like everything else, it immediately crashes on loading. Same thing with Call of Duty 4, I started it up the first time, played for 5 minutes, it crashed, and now it crashes instantly upon loading. Some games I can get through the menu screen and it crashes when it loads game play, some just crash as soon as they start up. I recently reformatted my computer, on the old machine even changing the resolution from windows display would crash my machine. Somehow that got fixed but all my problems are still here. I've updated all my drivers, and tried alternative 3rd party drivers too. Any suggestions?

johnr on "RE: Review: Nokia E71"
Being a previous owner of an E90, the E71 is a NICE alternative with not much to lose from the E90 experience. The E90 is a 3G phone but the one I had was an Asian version so no 3G access in the US (Nokia: why do you not incorporate the ability to switch the 3G band since the phone's radio is capable if transceiving on both frequency bands? it would make more sense especially for international travelers). People should keep in mind that while the iPhone is a LOCKED device and is strangled to AT&T's network, Nokia's philosophy is to sell their devices as UNLOCKED and FREE to subscribe to any carrier the customer desires. I wouldn't mind paying $500 for a device that offers the versatility and power the E71 offers, yet in an unlocked package that RESPECTS consumer choice and freedom. WAY TO GO NOKIA! Thumbs down to all the other players in the industry who try to sell your soul to the carriers. Shame on you guys! How un-american, and un-patriotic!

johntmosher on "computer won't read keyboard"
You said you tried a few keyboards but did not mention if you tried both USB and PS2 keyboards. Ifyou already tried bothyou also need to mention what OS you use and provide the model number of the motherboard since that is where your keyboardplugs in.
If this is a hardware issue it could be caused by a port on the motherboard going bad. If you played with BIOS settings you need to reset the factory defaults.

dragonegg on "RE: EA to combat used game sales with online content & services"
This is all the developers fault. The games are high priced, over hyped, and many times buggy on release. Many gamers have been burned by bying an overpriced and over hyped product which is why the used market is booming.I used to buygames on release dates but now wait for followup user impressions/reviews and bug reports. Too many times the games these developers make are over hyped and buggy on release (sorry, I don't accept buggy software release with online updates as being acceptable and should not be the norm). They should follow Blizzard's example of shipping when ready (this is probably the only company I would trust for releasing a polished product). I only see this online content stuff turning into some sort of subscription service.

AlcoElec on "Can anyone solve this?"
Greetings Everyone:
First, allow me to describe this set up, and then to the current status.
A GigaByte GA-K8NXP-SLI ATX Mobo with a 939 socket
An AMD Athlon 64 FX-55 CPU
An ATI Radeon X850 XT & Same card with X850 PE
Four (4) Crucial Ballistix 1 Gig each memory sticks
A Creative SoundBlaster Audigy 4
Two 400 Gig Hard Drives Raid / SATA Striped configured with individually mounted fans -800 Gig / 100G space being used
Two large radiator: One at front intake & one at rear at exhaust with tubing from reservior see-thru tank to the pump, to the CPU, to both radiators in a loop with non-conductive XP Fluid & temperature gauges for monitoring plus alarm.
A 700 watt power OCZ supply
All other periferals not worth mentioning.
Windows XP Pro., SP2 and hardly used for gaming. Mainly business related uses and website building.
I even Hvac air from duct tapped from central heating and air in proximity of air intake fan in front of front radiator.
I know,.. It's like having a racecar to go to the corner store with. But the capabilities were there.
Then, when all of a sudden, striped lines to the far left of the monitor screen, blank darkness and auto shut-down of the whole Pc. Pause, and there was an 'Uh-oh'. The attempt to restart, and nothing. I had another power supply on hand, so I changed over temporarily and the computer started - but no video and no sound.
First guess was to obtain another power supply and video card (for just in case) Upon their arrival, they didn't make a difference. But now, the little dancing lights that usually turn on from the Crucial Ballistix Ram DDR cards don't do a thing and into a few minutes of the pc running, it shuts itself off.
Any suggestions of what may have happened would be great. If the Motherboard, I can replace but then how to restore raid and configuration to bring all records back as before.. (Bios) No, I didn't use a back u, but it's all there between two striped hard drives.

Oh my gosh this game is horrible. All of the gameplay is based on people stealing gold and followers from people who aren't good at the game. If people weren't stealing from each other there wouldn't be any game to the game.
Their latest update just put a whole lot of players into "war mode" without their consent, and for some people it was either in the middle of the night or the middle of the workday, and their kingdom was ravaged. I am sure that they will be getting a lot of negative responses (like this one) as well as losing a bunch of players -- who will probably realize upon being thrust into war, wait actually, this game is quite lame AND my kingdom is in tatters too. A recipe for a whole bunch of players quitting.

thedude on "RE: Solar spy plane sets unofficial 82 hour flight record"
Matthew,
I don't really see the advantage of putting these solar cells on a commercial plane. The gas turbine engines that power the plane operate most efficiently at or close to 100% load. Reducing the load probably would not have a significant cost reduction in fuel. (Remember these are keeping the plane in the air!) Plus how much added weight/ conversion system to take advantage of the solar cells. Not to mention the installation cost and maintenance cost added to take care of the cells. So, unless they could make the plane fly on the power of the cells it would not make any sense from a cost stand point. There is no ROI.

Cruisingal on "Royal Caribbean Sucks - Do Not Use Them"
I worked for Royal Caribbean and want you to know they are probably the worst company I worked for. They treat their employees horrible!!!! We have to come in before our shifts to read emails on specials, or weather concerns, ship itinery changes and important info. However, we do not get paid for that time. Plus they are more interested in how fast you can get off the phone with a guest instead of actually helping them. They give us 280 seconds to complete a call. If you call time goes over that you eventually get fired. So the employees can give good cust service and get fired or they can be rude and hurry you off the phone to keep their jobs. Every two weeks you supervisor tells you how much you need to improve even if you are only 1 point from the 280.It is a night mare.
Let me address a few things from above if it is ok. Yes, the ship needs to leave on schedule no matter what your reason is. Otherwise you will not get to your destination on time and why should the guests who arrived on time get a shorter visit at the first port of call because of the people who arrivedlate. The cruise care insurance that is available is not Royal Caribbean. It is a complete different company. You would have to make your claim with them, just like you would if you were in a car accident.If you drove a Ford, Ford is not going to reimburse you, right? It would be your insurance company. The insurance company would also be the ones that take care of the hotel, food, transpertation etc.What usually happens is you have a choice of completing the cruise from the next port they can get you to or you can reschedule the entire cruise and take it at another time or be refunded. That is if you have the insurance. If you do not then your on your own. There would be no one to pick up the hotel bill, pay the cost to the next port etc. You were lucky you had the insurance. When the airlines grounded hundreds of planes a few months ago, many people were not able to get to their ships. Of course, that has nothing to do with Royal Caribbean but the guests were calling for refunds and they had not purchased the insurance so there would be nothing we could do. However, if you had insurance you could file a claim. If the weather was as bad as you said I think I would of flown in a day early. That is what I do. Too many things can go wrong. Even if I drive, I go the day before, stay in a hotel so I am nice and rested. I arrive 2 or 3 hours prior to the boarding time as they always let you on early. I have sailed with numerous cruise line companies and each time they have let the guests on several hours ahead of scheduled. There also was a comment about Royal Caribbean and Celebrity being the same customer service dept. This is not true. They are seperate and are similar but not the same people working for each company at the same place. There are two different presidents of the company and the staff is different.
My first cruise was on Carnival. I had a horrible experience. I was injured and still suffer from one of the injuries. Carnival would not make the doctor available. I went back several times and only the nurse was there and then it was time to get off the ship. One of my injuries was in the spa when they did a sea weed wrap and hooked up my nerve to the electrodes instead of the muscle. I limped for the entire cruise and have nerve damage to that leg now. So I always buy the insurance and I have never been back on Carnival. If they had taken care of me, I would of stayed with them. I did get the bug to cruise and just love it, even though I do get sea sick. The patches work pretty good.
In reference to the comment of mid ship the higher the better. Well, that is an old wisetale. The higher the more expensive and is more wobbly. The lower you are the less you will toss about in the ocean. We would have guests asking for deck 2 and 3 because there is less motion.

Yesterday I bought a used T6524 (it too is about 3 years old). It comes with a different power supply, that is rated a bit higher, so I swapped the power supply into my old T3624 and it still would not boot: I conclude that the motherboard is shot as well. I managed to salvage data from the hard drive but a big pain reloading a new machine, plus the expense.
I believe the power supply is the issue, however, eMachines is responsible since they built the machine. They can subrogate to Bestec.

scramble on "RE: Microsoft lets slip new computer mouse tech"
Trackballs (if they're big enough) work far better than mice. Less desk space needed, they're more accurate, and they work on any surface. I love my Kensington Expert Mouse! It replaced an RS-232 serial 3-D trackball that finally gave up the ghost after at least 10 years of reliable operation. Try it, you'll like it.

mjerome on "Loopy computer issue(s)"
Hello everyone, I have a problem computer that was running perfect, and now it is not. I installed a firewall on this machine and since then I have had problems. After installing firewall the computer would boot normally, butonceat desktop it would reboot; sometimes immediately, other times after 30 seconds. It was stuck in a reboot loop.I could get thecomptuerto start up in Safe Mode, that is how I disabled the firewall, still the same problem. I replaced the AGP videocard, no help. I removed one of my 512MB RAM and tried to restart, now I get a long beep, over and over againfrom the MB speaker. I can add the RAM back, change their slots, and I only get the long beeps, nothing at all on the monitor.Cannot start in Safe Mode now.
I think installing the firewall was a coincidence, probably has nothing to do with the issue at hand. Any help or suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated!!! This computer actually runs the overhead projectors at my church and it only used twice a week for a few hours each time.
The MB is an ASUS P4S800 with Intel P4 2.8GHz
2 - 512MB Kingston PC3200 RAM (KVR400X64C3AK2/1G)

Security vendor - SecuTech seeks worldwide connection
Canada-based SecuTech to establish worldwide channel01 March 2008 www.eSecuTech.comSecuTech, a security vendor of USB-based security hardware, is looking for distributors to sell and market its products to the trade worldwide.
The company is headquartered in Canada and established an international sales force earlier this year, headed by Michelle Law. 'Our company standpoint is that we are a lean organisation and our product margin is going to be high,' she said.
The company will support worldwide suppliers by providing sample products. Once the channel is established, SecuTech will look at making marketing funds available, Law said.SecuTech's product set is divided into three types: software protection, network security and video protection.
The software protection products, Unikey and Unikey PRO are generically called dongles. A dongle is a USB or parallel port device that may be integrated to an application to prevent unauthorised duplication. The Unikey dongle product is our most mature and is currently the market leader in Canada. This product is aimed at software developers whose product costs in excess of €100 and is liable to duplication. This type of product is widely used by CAD-CAM companies and others whose pricing would allow for the addition of a hardware key.
The Unikey video protection system - UniKey Video Protector intends to protect video files like SWF, Flv, MPEG, AVI, WAV, RM and RMVB. It is an easy-to-use solution for software vendors who want to sell video data to customers while scared of illegal usage and distribution.

Pandora's box of technology has been opened, get used to it! It's going to be interesting in the coming years how technology will but heads with social values. Privacy will soon be a thing of the past. I don't like it, but I'm not like some dumbass lawmaker that thinks they can legislate technology back in the box. Someday ALL our dirty laundry will be left out to dry on the net. Kinda of scary, but I think people will adapt and not care so much about knowing everyone else's business. Hypocrites like Jerry Falwell etc, will no longer have a place to hide, so there are some upsides :-)

gregg on "RE: Google Street View photographers commit virtual trespassing"
We need to lobby for whatever privacy we can legally retain. Technology is a tool. It can be used for good or for evil. Society needs to weigh the potential risks and make appropriate laws. Both sides of the argument are wrong. We can't return to the anonymity that people enjoyed in the nineteenth century. It would also be foolhardy to declare that everything that can possibly be discovered about a person should be easily available to anyone. A person doesn't need to have any 'dirty laundry' to realize that easy access to a full knowledge of their activites becomes a risk. All you need is one person who wants to harm you or take something from you. If that evil person were to easily learn your patterns, he could find a way to injure or kill you. If that evil person were to easily get information about you, they could steal your identity on many banking sites that still ask stupid questions like "what was your mother's maiden name?" Wanting to retain some privacy doesn't necessarily mean that you have something to hide and be ashamed about. It might just mean that you have a life.
But - to get back to your question: "Would close up shots of your house, possibly even shots that can see inside your home, be acceptable to you?" . . .I'm not a lawyer, but in my opinion, if you can see inside my house, using the visible spectrum, then it's my fault for not closing the curtains. If you're trespassing to get the picture - then not only should the picture be removed, but you should pay the penalty for trespassing.

dskowtx on "NEED HELP COMPUTER PROB"
You need to divide the problem into locational areas. Window Applications, Window drivers, BIOS, hardware, or connection/short circuit problem.
If you are running Windows you can try going into safe mode by hitting F8 on boot up.
Next, you can also try to see if at least your monitor, keyboard and mouse are still working by trying to run the Windows install disk. If they do work, your windows OS is corrupted.
If the install disk does not even show up, your BIOS probably got messed up or a wire inside or outside the computer got disconnected. A thick layer of Dust can also cause problems. Just cleaning out the dust with a can of compressed air may fix the problem.
If you have not touched your BIOS, the problem is probably not there. Check your physical connections for anything that "looks" out of place.
If you need to go into the computer hardware guts, make sure to unplug the power. Also, only open the computer case if you know about static electricity safety measures (you don't want to fry one of your components).
The BIOS utility program is usually accessed by hitting Del, F1, F2, or Esc key even earlier on boot up. Usually there is a Screen stating which key to hit. Reseting a BIOS usually involves taking out the system watch-like battery and temporarily moving a jumper on the motherboard. Consult the manufacter of the motherboard.

Chinavasion on "Wholesale From China Gives Notebook Users The EDGE To Stay Mobile
One of the biggest worries for road warriors is the expensive and fickle nature of their laptop's wireless connections. To solve this problem wholesale mobile electronics makers from China have released new modems that use GSM EDGE technology to keep people connected.
EDGE stands for Enhanced Data rates for GSM Evolution. Cell phone and laptop owners with EDGE capable devices can surf the internet, view streaming videos/music and download data.
EDGE has let businesspeople stay in touch with devices like smart phones and PDA's. However, it hasn't been possible to harness EDGE's WAP capabilities for notebook modems.
According to Chinavasion's PR manager, Rose Li, there used to be only one way to take advantage of the fast and relatively inexpensive download times. That was to get an expensive smart phone and then go through a lengthy and complicated 'tethering' process. "
Tethering was, and always will be, a risky business which is expensive to do and ties up two business tools to do the same thing," according to Rose Li. "Thankfully wholesale mobile phone makers have come up with a way to get around that."
Chinavasion's Rose Li said EDGE modems and the EDGE network was head and shoulders above other wireless connection options available to laptop users as EDGE modems were easy to set up and data downloads were a fraction of the cost of traditional wireless internet plans.
"Fast, stable internet connections have never been so accessible on the road, or so affordable," said Chinavasion's Rose Li.

You can run parallels or VMware Fusion to virtualize XP from your OS X desktop. Would probably be the easiest way to go...

capitalist on "RE: Will the Kindle be the new favorite format for textbooks?"
There are a number of problems with the Kindle. For one thing, it's locked down tight. I wouldn't be willing to buy an ebook reader unless I could actually do what I wanted with it.
And I would want it to <i>be</i> an ebook reader, not a jack-of-all-trades which sends email and makes coffee. I want a dedicated device which is a superb ebook reader and does absolutely nothing else. In particular, I don't want it to have Internet access, because a device that is optimized for the Internet will never be optimized for reading books.
As far as textbooks go, there are plenty of free ones available. Any ebook reader based on selling content won't succeed.

dskowtx on "RE: Rant: I think I now hate my iPhone 3G"
I found that if you do not upgrade to the latest version, you will have the following problem. The incoming voice on an outgoing call does not work. The work around that I found was to put it in speaker mode. I had this problem most of the day July 4, 2008 until I found a work around. I don't make many call, but when I do I expect them to work. After upgrading the software, outgoing calls worked again here in Dallas, TX. I don't have the 3G version of the phone.
Also, I make sure to close all of the web pages and make only a blank one left. Some pages poll for info in the background which will drain battery life. The phone does not end the browser app when you go to the iphone main page.
Anyway, I still recommend the phone. Just make sure to also keep up with the latest version.

Airplanes are pretty high about the 2D grid of wireless internet on the ground. The new 4G technology is planned for only 1/2 mile range. Planes are up at 5-6 miles. So, the max range from the ground tower would need to be around 50 miles and a flight would still have 30-40 handoffs. I wonder how good the internet would be if those are the numbers. Not to mention thunderstorms to slow things down. It seems that using satellites or some kind of low earth wireless network would give a better connection.

addisa on "RE: Microsoft offers 91% student discount on Office"
Matt, although I agree with your opinion about Open Office being a great product, I must disagree with your opinion. Although I know several people that use Open Office, hardly any of them use it for business. Most of the business world is dominated by MS Office, and I would recommend any student purchase MS Office to get a head start on the interworkings of MS Office and for 50 dollars, the MS Office books will probably cost more. Although free would be great for the consumer, I feel 50 dollars is reasonable to cover the cost of the software and the program that will require students to pass certain credentials. I think MS has finally gotten a price point right on software for a change.
Another thing I have noticed is if you look at job boards, most all job postings have a "must know MS Office" on them, I haven't seen one recently that had a "Must know Open Office". Now I am not a MS fanboy, but I have many businesses that I look after as an IT consultant, and I am just reporting it as I see it.

I agree. Facebook is much easier to find friends. Additionally, it has a cleaner look, provides for more fun with their interactive applications (especially with the highly addictive PetrolHead) and seems more professional looking. For example, if my employer wanted to check out my Facebook page, I wouldn't think twice. However, some peoples applications can get RISKE.

I've got a client who loves his Macbook (and he should!). He needs to use Internet Explorer to access Microsoft CRM Online on an infrequent basis. He probably won't want to reboot and run Windows. SO:
1. Is there a way to put an icon on his desktop to launch IE running under Mac OS or does he have to reboot? He's a "click one icon" kind of guy...
2. Could you run a U3 USB type of device to launch an IE instance?
3. Are there other ideas that would simplify this?
Thanks for your support!

This works quite well, even if they haven't indexed everything. They are now at 700 million, so it's moved fairly well from the time of this story. I found it interesting to bring up some images in google search and then check them in TinEye. You can see how images get swiped and used everywhere. What's really cool about this service is that it can still find the images even if they have been cropped or photoshopped. No more stealing images and just cropping or editing so nobody knows you stole it!
This and related tech will be awesome for photographers!

dragonegg on "RE: Intel demonstrates wireless power transmission"
Tesla did many cool things, which our government doesn't want us to know or experiment with. Some due to it being too dangerous for the general public to tinker with. This is cool and hopefully Intel will drive this technology to make it business viable. Applying this to a grander scale will eliminate power lines and allow electric cars to not have to be plugged in to recharge and allow extended long trips. Though we must be careful as all these energy waves in the air may have adverse health effects on us as well.
Definitely something to watch. this is akin to the change brought about by wireless internet access. Cool stuff.

This is the third post i have tried after the first two failed...
This is really really badly run news site.. if someone trying desperatly to post corrections to your article can't even do so...
How can two completely different and seperate posts be seen as double posting, and require BOTH to be deleted?
It wasn't spam.. It wasn't a double post.. and even if it was a double post, don't your actions require that one be deleted not both....
This is really sad to the point where i dont really want to use your news site anymore... I know I can write better purely because i did without even doing any research today. Im sure if i looked in a book i could find alot more neat facts that were completely ignored....
Bottom line, comercially viable wireless technology existed 100 years ago....
That intel photo is akin to Tesla's famous photo with Mark Twain.. Twain is holding an illuminated lightbulb.. but no wires, and no powersource are on his person......... 100 years ago........
..... I just tried to post a secondary post to add further information that this website left out... and it removed BOTH posts.. Thats AWESOME...
now I have read the rules to see if I broke them, but i have not and will direct furthur comment in that regard to the forum... but it wasn't a repeated post, it was two unique, informational posts...
First off.. Thank you Sarge, Your post makes me smile to see at least YOU can give cerdit where credit is due.
Nikola Tesla invented this system 100 years ago literally.... before using wires, he liked to NOT use wires.. and it worked.... (look him up on wikipedia).
He had a comercially viable system 100 years ago.. (again, geek.com do your research. it sucks having to post corrections on your news articles...)
So this technology was comercially available 100 years ago. If you disagree with Tesla's discovery, it is impossible to deny these facts about his:
he designed and invented the entire AC power grid we are running on in north america. He designed niagra falls power station.. still in use today covering a MASSIVE area of north america considering its "free energry".
He was one of the first to point a radio to the sky and hear other planets static/radiation coming ove the radio spectrum.. he claimed they were aliens, but the source was real and he was one of the first to identify it. partyl because of him we dont take pictures in space, we use things like radio to get out of visible light spectrum. infra as well... this discredited him to the point of being fogotten..
Thomas Edisons company blackballed Tesla and all his work. stole his AC system (edisons was DC) and pretty much ruined him...
But Tesla had a comercially viable system to even power cars 100 years ago by this technology...
IGNORING all that....
Crystal Radio's are another form of this technology, discovered over 50 years ago, and really put to use in the wars..
A Crystal Radio does not have a battery. It just gets the electricity it needs from the air. it converts radio waves BACK into energy, thus another wireless power system... this is 50 year old technolgoy if not 100 year old..
MIT may be improving it. but this is 50-100 year old technology.. and to report otherwise is simply spreading of misinformation....

jonasty on "Which is the Best Free Antivirus?"
Best antivirus - any mac.
I have a pc and a mac side by side. Every free antivrus software mentioned here is on my pc. Not one single antivirus program on my mac.
Guess which one is infested.
No doubt it's not a satisfactory answer for most of you but I thought I'd mention something outside the box so to speak. Anyway, if you insist on free software on your pc i recommend having at least two. None are perfect and using more than one increases your odds. spyware doctor and avg are good at detecting and fixing problems and avast detects in real time. Heck, get all three! They're free. Norton in my experience doesn't seem to do much frankly.

trckrh on "HELP!!!! Please!!"
Hi this is my first post since joining. I have a monster problem i own an HP Pavilion ZV5000 Series Laptop. The issue is that the bios has just started asking for a password. i have done every thing that i know to do an nothing is working. I have already called HP and all they would say was "we will be glad to help you after you purchase a service plan at a cost of $99.99" Which in my opinion is a little steep seeing as how they couldnt even be sure they could fix the problem. So if any one can hep i would be greatly appreciative.
Thanks TRCKRH

I bought a new computer last year. I have only really used the computer for internet use. My husband is returning to college and will need to use the computer for papers and homework.

Can someone give me a clue as to how to use vista and where to find this product key?

vanityfades on "Network Card ... Issues..."
I recently reformatted my hard drives and reinstalled Windows XP on my PC due to a virus and due to the fact that it had been a few years and I just thought my computer needed a fresh start. And this is exactly where my problem began.
Since I reinstalled Windows, I've been unable to connect to the internet, and I've become completely lost searching for the solution. Here is the information I've gathered so far; I'm hoping this will be useful and that someone will know what I can do.
I'm running with an ECS PF1 Version 1.1 Motherboard, which comes with an onboard adapter. I was assuming that the 1394 Adapter connection which Windows installed on its own was this onboard adapter, but I've recently read that it, in fact, is not? Clueless there.
I also have a D-Link DFE 530TX+ hooked up to one of my PCI slots. For some reason when I initially reinstalled Windows, it also installed a connection labeled "Realtek Family Fast Ethernet Adapter". Right from the beginning this connection stated that there was a network cable unplugged, when there was not. Since then, I uninstalled this Realtek connection because, well, I don't have a Realtek network adapter.
Multiple attempts at ipconfig only give a "Media Disconnected" message; attempts to ping 127.0.1.1 come back 100%; but attempts to ping my own IP address yield a 0% return rate. Attempts at updating my motherboard's drivers have been useless - the sound card driver tells me that there is no supported device installed on my computer (this is from the CD that came with the motherboard); drivers for this motherboard that I downloaded from the ECS website give me the same error message. Attempts at updating the D-Link Adapter drivers (which I downloaded) also return the same message.
Both of these adapters appear in my Device Manager list of installed hardware, both with yellow ? icons next to them.
As you might notice, I've tried just about everything I can think of to correct this problem, and come up with nothing. Please help.. I'm so lost without my computer, I really don't know what to do. Anyone with suggestions are more than welcome to reply...
Thanks.

KylieH on "RE: Rant: I think I now hate my iPhone 3G"
unfortunately, I had to wait until the 3G because I needed the Exchange sync ability. Now that I have it, I have to say that their implementation of it lacks in comparison with Windows Mobile 6. To me it suggests that this was a very low priority for them. It's a problem for me because I rely on it.
Otherwise, 3g has been solid as has the browser. I consider myself myself lucky.
So, would I go back to my former Palm, PocketPC, or Shadow? Heck no! I'll wait out the bugs gladly.

AlcoElec on "Solve This!"
Greetings Everyone:
First, allow me to describe this set up, and then to the current status.
A GigaByte GA-K8NXP-SLI ATX Mobo with a 939 socket
An AMD Athlon 64 FX-55 CPU
An ATI Radeon X850 XT & Same card with X850 PE
Four (4) Crucial Ballistix 1 Gig each memory sticks
A Creative SoundBlaster Audigy 4
Two 400 Gig Hard Drives Raid / SATA Striped configured with individually mounted fans -800 Gig / 100G space being used
Two large radiator: One at front intake & one at rear at exhaust with tubing from reservior see-thru tank to the pump, to the CPU, to both radiators in a loop with non-conductive XP Fluid & temperature gauges for monitoring plus alarm.
A 700 watt power OCZ supply
All other periferals not worth mentioning.
Windows XP Pro., SP2 and hardly used for gaming. Mainly business related uses and website building.
I even Hvac air from duct tapped from central heating and air in proximity of air intake fan in front of front radiator.
I know,.. It's like having a racecar to go to the corner store with. But the capabilities were there.
Then, when all of a sudden, striped lines to the far left of the monitor screen, blank darkness and auto shut-down of the whole Pc. Pause, and there was an 'Uh-oh'. The attempt to restart, and nothing. I had another power supply on hand, so I changed over temporarily and the computer started - but no video and no sound.
First guess was to obtain another power supply and video card (for just in case) Upon their arrival, they didn't make a difference. But now, the little dancing lights that usually turn on from the Crucial Ballistix Ram DDR cards don't do a thing and into a few minutes of the pc running, it shuts itself off.
Any suggestions of what may have happened would be great. If the Motherboard, I can replace but then how to restore raid and configuration to bring all records back as before.. (Bios) No, I didn't use a back u, but it's all there between two striped hard drives.

Each morning when I turn on my PC, it is taking 20 mins or so for the Mcafee virus scan or download or whatever it is doing, to run. While it runs, I cannot do anything else. I have a Dell and am running XP.
I also notice in general, my system has been running slower. Could this be caused by Mcafee also?

tgelvin on "RE: Private Browsing Coming to IE8?"
Well... Isn't this just special!!! M$ finally pulls their heads outta their butts and does this trick... Quite frankly, this will not sway me back to using IE at all, because I know that the Firefox team will have something similar out with in a month or two along with some other neat tools that M$ has not included in IE8... The battle of the free browsers will continue and Mozilla may have a step or two behind in this leg race, but I am and will always be faithful to Firefox, because I know the Firefox is still a smarter and faster team.
GO FIREFOX!!!

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone out there could help me, the other day my laptop came up with a screen saying that i had a virus on my laptop, i could still go into all my files and on theinternet and stuffso theni was trying to find a way of getting the virus off. I had no luck so left it the rest of the day and had a go the next day.
The next day when i turned my laptop on it came up wth a blue screen saying unmountable_boot_volume stop: 0x000000ed (0x812a2030, 0xc0000006, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)
ive tried pressing f8 so go into safe mode but it wont let me do anything.
I havent backed up any of my files thatare on my laptop such as photos, and music and stuff so if possible i need to find a way of getting back on without wiping everything off.
I would be very greatful for any help.
Thanks

I recently bought a Apple Macbook MB402LL (nothing added yet), and I want to have a few quality games as well. I was wondering what video card is compatible, of a good quality, lasts long, very little technical problems, and isn't over a budget.
It doesn't necesarily have to be the most recent one, just something that is released sometime maybe in '06 or '07.
Thx alot!

mas90guru on "RE: Rant: I think I now hate my iPhone 3G"
One thing that is worth noting - when the browser crashes it doesn't seem to totally pollute the OS so that the phone becomes unusable. I generally have been able to resme working even after a crash. This is in contrast to the way other phones (namely my experience with WM) can become extremely unstable after a crash (not releasing most of their memory).
I'm one of the lucky ones. I have had a 3G iPhone since mid July. So far I haven't experienced the 3G signal issues. My downloads seem fast as promised. I do not see a lot of 3G / EDGE signal fluctuation.
Overall I do have an extremely bitter taste in my mouth toward AT&T and their sly price hike for both data and SMS text messages.
I agree with each of your points and if Apple releases a 3G phone with the promise of faster and better - then they darn well better deliver..
