It wasn’t completely free if I remember right, but they did cover 75% of the replacement cost. A number of years ago there was a power surge at work and it killed my receipt printer. One of the girls called the power company to complain and they verified that a surge had taken [...]

So we just bought a netbook with Windows 7 Starter on it – we are so used to our Windows Vista in our old netbook – we find that the Starter comes with limitations. You see you can’t even change it’s wallpaper for one and you can only run concurrent applications on a PC at [...]

We received a call from someone asking for tech support for his computer he had just bought a few days ago. Well, of course – we must help if you had bought it a few days ago – hell! even if you caught a virus after a few days – we will still [...]

These days with everything being computerized it’s both wonderful and scary at the same time.

The Mobile mouse 6000 was recently released in conjunction with a similar 5000 model. Both use BlueTrack and are comfortably sized without being too bulky to cart around. The [...]

I installed Hellgate London again at work the other day since it was a pretty slow night. Within minutes I realized why I had uninstalled it in the first place, it’s a little choppy. Especially in ‘towns’. And if I have to alt-tab out to ring up a sale it takes forever [...]

Both me and the wife have been considering getting rid of our clunky old desktops and replacing them with notebook computers instead. It would make sense for the wife more so than for me since she just uses it for internet, pictures and movies. We could sell of both her home and work [...]

I’m up to level 7 now in Saga and the level 7 quests I have access to are starting to kick my ass. I chose the ‘War’ nation which is populated mostly by orcs. Now I don’t know what the best wrinkle cream on the market is these days, but damn if these [...]

Cables cost a fortune, typically, it’s one of the few items that electronics stores actually make good money on. My last trip through Staples in search of an HDMI cable would have set me back $80, but I know that’s retarded so I hit up the smaller computer stores instead and picked one up [...]
