    Linux newbie!

    Ok, I've barely ever used linux (although I did setup a mail server about 7 years back with a version of Suse). I've got a cheapy aspire netbook with Linpus running (based on Fedora 8 I believe). I have the advanced mode enabled so I can get behind XFCE. It's just purely for messing around on...

    We use a few Tascams at our place with shotgun mics. The shotgun mics are very cool with 3 settings so you can pick up someone talking like 100 metres away. Best these would be smart to use with the quattros like u say ... just point to what you want to record...

    I know the one I was dealing with disabled part of 'System Restore' aswell so you couldnt roll the OS and registry back to a previous date.

    Google Links Redirecting.

    I've come across this one before maybe 12 months back or so and it blocked traffic to anti virus sites or just redirected you so you couldnt download anything. If you can, use another machine to download the latest version of something like ad-aware and the latest update and copy to a usb...

    Yeah, quite a few very easy ones. You definitely need to know the answer before it appears to have any chance of doing well.

    Tweaked around a lot now with my site, however, i'm pretty sure im in the 'sandbox' for my main keywords/phrase. I understand the 'sandbox' theory but dont understand the timelines involved ? Some articles say 6-12 months or even more! Is it mainly down to trust with google, do i need put...

    Only submitted on Monday to the search engines. I've actually just had googlebot on there this morning, still no crawl stats from googlebot in the webmaster tools though. Might take a few days to update probably. I've added the phone no and email address to the top banner now. Cheers for...

    Website marketing

    Every bit developed from the ground up with VS 2005 Pro, ASP.Net 2.0, ASP.Net AJAX 1.0, SQL 2005 and few 3rd party components like GCheckout. I like the flexibility of doing everything myself, although I dont have much patience for programming these days.

    Cheers mate. The phone number and fax number is displayed on the right hand side at the moment and in the t & c's. Should i move these to the top of the page ? The URL is http://www.receptionsdirect.co.uk BTW - It still needs a bit of work and some design input at some point!

    Draytek 2820 users

    I've just had the upload plus enabled aswell, was hoping to get near the max of 2.5mb but only getting 1.8mb at the moment. Think I might just monitor it for a week or two to see if there is any improvement.

    Draytek 2820 users

    I've setup our first one up with a new 'Be' pro line. However, the Draytek syncs lower (about 5-10%) than the Thomson Router. Luckily our exchange is about 50m away so with the Thomson I'm getting a sync of 23,000 down (23mb), however with the Draytek I can only get 21,000 (21mb) down. So...

    New Telly Thoughts...50" £1200-£1500 budget

    I've looking for a TV for a while now and its a minefield really. No TV is perfect and there are soooooo many factors. My mate has a Kuro 50" and yes they are suppose to be the best and yes it looks the part. But for £1800/£1900 im not so sure .... unless that type of money is no issue then...

    I had some dodgy RAM from scan that gave me all sorts of problems. They were very good at replacing though. Once yours is running at its full potential you wont have to upgrade until about 2020!! lol

    Even more criminal to have a sh*t hot graphics card and not use it ;) Just for work this Darren, encoding, compiling etc. Just ran SuperPi on a 6 month old quad core server we have for comparison (Intel Quad Core Xeon E5420 PASSIVE CPU 2.50GHz FSB 1333MHz 12MB L2 ...), that took 19 secs ...
