I forgot to update. Yes intels driver is significantly newer and fixed some of the weird behavior in their quick select utility that i was having with the dell driver. It did not fix the problem though. Unfortunately I found that with a cable straight to the monitor from the dock it works...

One of the atom boards and a SASLP-MV8 and you have ports enough for 14 drives. Supermicro has some new atom offerings but i still really like my X7SPA-HF. I really like that you never have to touch the box, not even to install windows or change bios settings. I still happen to have my old...

What I have: Dell E6410 laptop with i5 and intel graphics E port docking station Samsung TV LN32A550 Problem, when I try 1080p60 I get green lines very bad on display. Updated to latest dell driver no change. If I select 1080 with refresh rate 30hz in the driver the picture looks good but my...

Seriously? Anyone receiving customer service on this level that they aren't paying for needs to throw up a flag and say what the hell is going on here, simply does not happen.

I have these in stock again.

Just got a new work machine, Dell E6410. First one in our group with win7 which means I need to do some software testing. So far surprised at how well XP mode works, I was able to get some things working that I couldn't get working under VMware/win98 (yes some of the software is that old)...

I think if PG&E found you were doing something as mundane as heat with electricity they would probably jack your rates even higher.

Seems simply not running the server all the time and unplugging the stereo when not in use reduced my electric $75-85 down to $58-66.

Plenty of people are forced into BofA when they take over their home mortgage.

http://consumerist.com/2011/04/say-hello-to-your-worst-company-in-america-elite-8.html Hoping for comcast or b of a.

Thanks, ill put it on the list. State online inventory check says in stock near me.

The newer drives i read about are internally encrypted as a default and a clean wipe simply involves throwing away the key. In this case reading the chips would be useless. On the phone thing i think apple just started using ASLR for user data. Could be wrong about that but essentially also...

I had a trackman and a marble fx that actually seemed to cause me quite a bit of pain, i wound up switching back to a regular mouse even though i rather liked the track balls. I would suggest that while not actively using the mouse like reading a page or something to do some hand exercises...

Real ups systems need quarterly battery maintenance. We also have a battery checking system by alber that the more critical systems seem to favor.

Crap, a day or so after the Epsilon breach and I am getting a noticible increase in spam.

Why not a small business grade item like: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000H97UC0/ref=nosim/9938135-rg2422-00-20?s=merchant http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps9931/index.html If I ever started having trouble with my something like eight year old 3com office connect I would...

Are you friggin kidding me?? All of ours just turn into a super annoying power conditioner as far as I am aware.

Well it failed again for me but I noticed they did update the page it directs you to fix the failure. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/why-am-i-receiving-message-system-components-missing Think Ill hold off on that.

Wow, i didnt hear it was intentional. Wheres the lawsuit countdown? In related news sony looks to be losing the round against ticket master in consumerists worst company in america contest. http://consumerist.com/2011/03/meet-your-worst-company-in-america-sweet-16.html

Just got a Mouser catalog in the mail. Who ships a 4" thick catalog to someone that placed an order online these days? Mouser catalog is like printing out every website that starts with the letter s and then mailing it to a friend. Uline shipping supply is no better, I get that fairly often too.

Yeah, I'm sort of interested to try XP mode with our legacy software. Software that was designed for 95/95, has software keys that involves a crypkey system service. I can't imagine it's going to go well. I offered to test it out BEFORE we all get new machines later this year with 7 on them so...

Does ocz have a utility to zero write the drive? Fdisk mbr or something?

I'd send it back to IT with a list of what's wrong, not really your job to fix it if it is that bad. We are still on XP and thinking about 7 and XP mode for the replacements that are due the end of this year. They were supposed to get me a machine to evaluate to see if XP mode would work or if...

On the apple side I found an app called appshopper, you load it up with a wish list and it notifies you of price changes, updates and shows you a price/update history for the app. Most apps fluctuate in price regularly so just stick it on your wish list and it lets you know whats up. Caught...

AC and DC caps in UPS units indeed go bad over time just like batteries. If you have a UPS with no diagnostics in it you aren't going to have a clue whats going on. Also can't you return that battery?

The machine does nothing except the usual office stuff when I am not using it for something, does have outlook open all the time. There is some landesk corporate spyware in there that does something now and again. For the driver I really saw no reason to not use the microsoft HID mouse driver...

That was a good one but really truth and facts dont matter in media and sometimes courts if they arent presented right. Im just glad people can think for themselves. Sometimes. If they want to.

Whats going on in russia? Not a fan of biggins myself.

It is XP pro for the work computer, i dont see an allow power down in device manager or the power options. 7pro x64 is the one that works fine for me. Mouse in question is a logitech G5. Been about a year and a half sense the last reinstall/reimage, maybe time for the ultimate windows fix...

My work computer just recently started giving me trouble. On my KVM it treats the USB keyboard and mouse as plugin/unplug events when you switch computers, which works great. On my laptop it just started delaying the mouse plugin for about 15-20 seconds, more than enough to be super annoying...

That will come with 4.3. Tell him to NOT restore ipad2 from the ipad1 backup...

Hmm, i have gotten fishing emails about facebook but i dont have an account that i know of, guess i will check. Read somewhere that it was nearly impossible to close their accounts too.

Bad news is you might have to learn something about apple and itunes here. Like i said, known issue on older firmware/baseband firmware. You should take his least important device and do a "restore as new" in itunes using ios 4.3 now. Use a legit ipsw from apple, not some custom cooked...

Sometimes i see people selling dead drives on ebay or forums, look into that and post a WTB thread for dead drives?

Me too, every year on my anniversary i have to take a sudden three weeks off to use the vacation before i lose that. Usually i skip mondays for a month or two and try and find a project to do something.

I never got it installed on my desktop but i didnt try past the first failure and that tool with the huge download that did nothing. I really do need to look into IE9 for work though.

Wow bozo, i dont like to hear that. Why didnt you just return them to the vendor rather than deal with an RMA?

I have transferred a LOT of money via paypal and never had to give them any of that crap. I just run a zero balance and am prepared to unlink the bank account at any time. It wouldn't be convenient to change my bank account number though, but still prepared to do it.

He is or is not running ios 4.2.1 on all those devices?

Pretty convinced the whole faking depth perception while having your eyes focus on the same plane tends to not work really well.

If it is smaller the slot needs to have an open back and it seems plenty do. Or be like my board and have something like pciex2 in a physical pciex16 slot.

Whenever i run the intel trim tool it completes instantly so I'm hoping trim is working rather than something being broken.

Windex of the non drip variety I have used once or twice when I accidentally open a coke or something at the computer and it sprays.

I havent liked nero sense about 5. Funny thing too, i havent had it installed for at least eight months now and i dont miss it either.

True, some of the ios devices have n but they dont have the higher frequency lower power frequency bands. It is annoying because the battery life on wifi could be much better. Funny thing is i think the chip they use has the capability but they chose not to impliment it.

Hmm, my desktop failed with "WindowsUpdate_80073712" "WindowsUpdate_dt000" I guess I get to see what this system readiness upgrade tool can do. I suspect I may just do without.

Actually i have seen some talk of that in macrumors merc. I think the key question is are his ios versions up to date? There were some problems on older versions. Other than that i think a forget and relearn could be in order. Personally i havent had an issue with my 3com office connect and...

My server is 12gb available in RAID6, less formatted and after the HD size myth of course. I must have less than $1500 in that machine.

2 addressed the things I was concerned about, mostly speed and bulk/weight. Rumors are flying that 3 is going to be this year and a big step up. I also liked hearing that 4.3 had mobile safari speed improvements which will be really nice to get for free.

I am seriously considering changing mine from "X" to "Shutthefuckup84" but I have no doubt it will go unnoticed. I do have a "spicy nuggets" and a "startrek" somewhere around me.
