Ah yes... I did forget to mention...I am of course looking for used. The pen thing is fine by me although touch would certainly be best. I wasn't even aware that some are pen only so that is a good thing to know! As for VB embedded stuff, I have been out of the game for awhile. This is going...

Hey guys, I have been looking into the possibility of buying a tablet type of PC / Laptop. A short history.... I'm a contractor ( former VB and HTML guy ). I am building some basic apps to accomplish very quick estimates for things which I can make modular like bathrooms. I'm thinking with a...

I need to buy Quickbooks pro 2007 and the stuff is all over ebay like pigeon crap in New York. I see people selling the academic version claiming it is the same as retail but priced for students. Technically as a business if I use it it is "piracy" I have two questions..... 1. Anyone think the...

Had a question, I am looking into updating my quickbooks software to the 2007 version. I found a guy on EBAY with good ratings selling an academic priced Quick books pro 2007. The description claims only the price is different and that the academic priced version is the same at the retail...

more info. My color Laser is an HP 3550 Huge amounts of software aside I love this machine. During my research when I bought it it came through as easily the best machine on the market in my opinion. It bridges tha gap from home office machine to massive juggarnaught quite nicely When I asked...

Anyone have any thoughts on this? I have people claiming they can save me a good percentage off the box stores where my Toner costs a little over $100.00 US for each of the ones in the printer ( there are four). Anyone know if the refilled / remanufactured type of cartridges will have the same...

Awesome! I actually had a head slapping moment when I realized I probably have at least a few Hard drives of ten or more gig I could just put in the machine. This tool Mercutio suggests sounds even better in that I could put the hard drive in a different computer! Much more safety for the...

Didn't find anything that quite applied in the search so.... Situation: Three Machines (2 desktop 1 laptop) all on a simple network (hub) One of the desktops has a shared folder which houses about 3 gigs of information mostly documents. Word, Excel, PDF etc. Problem: I am constantly...

So.... I have the innards to a P2 350 Mhz and I would only need to have a new hard drive and a new case to make a working machine which could hook to my network. Would this be sufficient to run some sort of Linux? I have been out of the programming game for awhile but was always a microsoft...

I currently am running 4 Pcs on a home network through a linsys wired and wireless router to a DSL connection. All the machines are actually using the wired ports and two machines have printers attached to them which are shared over the network. Two machines are XP Pro and two machines are...

Ummm yeah, so as usual Merc comes through. For my needs Dia rocks! Its no Visio but for basic flow charting it does the deal and its free. Tanks Merc! Hats off to you!

As funny as it sounds...check Ebay. There is a store here which sells old Pratt & Whitney equipment usually still in working shape. Of course much of it is 3 phase wired. The "surplus" store as it was called has now started putting the good stuff on ebay effectively ruining the fun for the...

Okay so dont show me the door....but... in looking at that it looks like open office is someones pet project to fight microsoft? Anyway to just get draw or is it simply part of it? It looks like its just a suite. As for the other options i will check them out. Thanks

Anyone know of a good basic flow chart program thats free? Or perhaps one of you guys has a recent copy of Visio you might not be using and would be willing to sell reasonably? For my business I am starting to put together workflows and such and power point just doesn't cut it. :evil:

Hiya Doug... LTNS! I have been pretty busy lately You going to Worcestor for the summer nats next weekend? My machines work fine when hooked directly to the DSL modem so I am thinking its the router. I bought the router legit and registered it so maybe its a warranty thing? I had heard XP...

We have two cats.....both will track insects and one of them delights in eating them. Since we keep them indoors they dont get many of them. Our theory is that the powder on moths wings is actually a sugar coating. I would say your cat sounds normal to me.

Well, to my knowledge I didnt change any of the default settings on the router. As for your other question... Umm Can I plead stupidity? I'm only into computers in passing. I was a programmer a few years back but never into the hardware aspect. I built both machines from case up and the...

Hello all, I have two machines running XP Pro they both run fine. I recently bought a Linksys wireless G broadband router. It has four old school wired ports and also the ability for wireless connections. I set my two machines up on this using the old school wired connections with plans of...
