Perhaps you could buy a bunch of cables for $1 and offer them to the students for $2? ;)

I'm on the HCHF-diet myself, it's excellent. ;) But seriously, I thought the best thing was to eat normal balanced food, and not too much? And that the biggest threat might be all the hidden sugar in everything we eat and drink these days?

Hmm, I probably didn't mean to post the last message... I was about to suggest about the same thing as David. ..But what I really think is Sony made the Walkman for a reason. :)

Just put an AP in every

Roaming is cool but probably difficult to implement in an elegant way. How would you avoid getting interruptions in the music? What happens when two persons listening to different music enters the same room, and when one of the two leave the room again? I think it looks pretty easy to configure...

Don't worry, they are very friendly. This is a cartoon.

I love the danes and their movie making skills, here's a commercial for the elections to the EU. Meet voteman: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=gT4lhERDZ8s

Yes. I hope that Williams has a successful season and Ferrari too of course with Alonso and Räikkönen. :)

We've had a lousy winter so far, we didn't get any real snow until mid January... And it's supposed to be +6C tomorrow.

The tweaking I've done up until Win 8 consists of choosing the win 2000 start menu + theme and set the GUI-options under system to "maximum performance".

I've had a few oops moments. Once I formatted the wrong disk - my main storage drive. But I could recover most files. Another time I truncated a database table by mistake. The good news was that I had the table opened in another tab in the server manager, and the table only contained ~40 rows...

It might be difficult for us to understand where there's ice on the lakes for 8 month/year, but I think it's pretty common to have no or almost no heating. I think I've never been freezing as much as when I spent the Christmas in Italy a few years ago. It was only around 0°C but the family where...

Happy holidays!

The first school computer we had was Compis (COMPuterInSchool, kompis=friend in swedish). Designed in Sweden, used the CP/M OS, you did the programming in the Comal language, a mix between Basic and Pascal. All the computers in the classroom were connected to a central HDD with (I think) 20 MB...

1. Was a Commodore 64 with tape drive, first game was Tomahawk (helicopter simulator). I also bought Gunship and California games disks because I was going to buy an Excelerator Plus disk drive - but they never arrived before I got computer #2. 2. Amiga 500, eventually upgraded to 2.3MB RAM, a...

I had a one of their drives as boot drive for a while. This news was like an early christmas gift.

You don't need to show me benchmarks, I trust you. I can tell you about a couple of minuses with the T440s so far. It doesn't have NFC and it looks like won't be available in a while (at least not in Sweden). And the screen has some bleeding in the bottom. It's not important in my applications...

But do you really notice dual channel operation? But the G1 looks like a nice machine. I think it's mostly a matter of taste if you choose it or the T440s.

FHD non glossy, do they even have glossy as an option on the T-series?

By the way, I got a T440s (without touchscreen) yesterday. The T440p is probably a better all round workhorse, but I'm pretty satisfied so far.

What about the Yoga 2 pro? Or is it just a toy?

We have 80 km/h speed limits on many roads, it's doesn't feel very constructive when someone has to drive hundreds of kilometres to get somewhere.

I was likely a bit older than you when they aired the TV series here, but I loved it. Stalingrad is also in the same league.

Das Boot is another good submarine movie. :-)

To Pandas defence I have to say that it seems to be pretty easy on hardware resources. And it's free for home use. But the general cloud theory seems to fit in quite well on their corporate products.

Check out Runkeeper, it can read out values for time/distance/avg pace/avg speed/ current pace/current speed/current split time/curent split speed/avg heart rate/current heart rate/avg heart rate zone/current heart rate zone based on distance or time. I also use Strava when I ride, but it...

Great geek toy (maybe?) - but personally I don't even have a bell or a bike computer on my handlebar so doubt that I would mount something on it that constantly blinks in different patterns during the rides?

We had Panda Cloud Office Protection at work until yesterday but now we have ESET Endpoint Antivirus. But to be fair the cloud version seems to be better than their "normal" products to me, but I'm not really an expert on antivirus software.

Anyone been in contact with Pandas Cloud AV products?

Passkey didn't exist back then, but it's taken care of now.

I meant a Haswell, sorry. :)

I'll run a 4670 without extra graphics over the weekend or so.

Change his monitor?

Thanks, I've learned a lot in this thread. I'll lay low with Fortinets antivirus for now.

I've used UltraEdit on my computer for as long as I can remember. I'm pretty happy with it. But when it comes to antivirus, have anyone tried Forticlient, we have a Fortigate firewall at work so I got the client to set up the VPN client. But now it contains antivirus and parental control. We'll...

My point in the previous post was, you can try and add/remove/move around some natural damping materials in the room if you think the sound is "wrong". If more damping on the wall improves the sound, go ahead and buy some permanent wall treatment. When it comes to vented vs closed enclosures...

It's almost impossible to say without testing, it depends a lot on the room. Some speakers are designed to sound good in real rooms where it's pretty uncommon to have sound dampening on the walls, but they might have carpets, curtains, furniture and other things that affects the sound.

I think every model of Renault made after 2003-2004 has gotten five stars in the Euro NCAP, and they don't make premium cars. I don't know how they would rate in the US tests, probably not quite as good, but at least it shows that it's possible to make safe AND inexpensive cars at the same time...

You mean something like this?

I believe that 1 km/h higher speed means 2-3% more deaths. At least that's what the scientists say. Here's some information from the Autostrada system. I did a simple calculation just for fun, the table shows the energy of my car (1550 kg) when travelling at different speeds. 90->100 km/h...

Personally I think it's worse that huge companies can buy the truth. But that has nothing to do with this. But it's fascinating that even the official statistics from USA lies to us and say that more people die in car accidents in rural areas rather than in urban areas. Of course, as long as...

You know that the risk of death in case of an accident increases with 40% if you raise your speed from 90 km/h to 100 km/h? And that more people dies in traffic accidents in rural areas rather than urban? So it's probably not a good idea to drive around at 160+ km/h even if it feels comfortable.

Really sad news, I'm sorry Doug.

No, they are studio monitors. But I doubt they will have several hundred watts hitting them very often during office hours.

Nice setup, makes my old Scirocco Spirits look tiny. :-)

Here it's more like $60, $75 and $90. Thank you state monopoly. :)

Highland Park 12... the first whisky I ever bought... The memories. :O) I like it a lot, but it's a small step up in price to the 15 and 18 here, so I usually go with the 18 when I buy Highland Park. (Usually in this case means about one bottle every two years.) A whisky I would like to try is...

I haven't found a use for the Ipad, my life would probably be better without a tablet.

Peugeot are specialists in small and medium sized, efficient, cars so there's probably no market for them in USA. But they make great diesel engines. Volvo got their diesel engines from PSA (Citroën+Peugeot), at least a few years ago.
