Well, I'm usually attached to it, but if you ever need help with the computer or anything else just let me know. I'm always happy to help out.
Played with Kaylee. Sun came out, and I walked on my feet and heard with my ears. I ate the bits, the bits stayed down, and I work. I function like I'm a girl. I hate it because I know it'll go away. The sun goes dark and chaos has come again. Bits. Fluids. What am I?!

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

folks, I need free firewall recommendations. I think the Windows Firewall after their "security enhancements" is fucking with some key software programs.

Okay tech-heads, I need help. One of my producers tried to stick one of those under-sized CDs into her slot drive on her powerbook, but the laptop doesn't like it -- it's not seeing the disk, nor is it coughing the disk up. Any suggestions on how to get the sucker out?

Turn it upside-down and shake it?
Or try this.
Unfortunately, Powerbooks are *really* bad at ejecting stuck discs. When it happened to mine (well, my office's), I had to send it in to tech support. [eta: and that was with a full-size DVD. I'm not sure the eject mechanism can reach a mini-sized one.]

Thanks for the link, Jess.
Neither of the solutions provided there worked, but your "turn it upside down and shake it" procedure worked perfectly.

I've been using ZoneAlarm, haven't had any problems.

I used to have problems with Zonealarm and torrent applications. Have you had problems in that area?

No, haven't tried that, sorry.
