I switched to uTorrent and have never looked back. The only feature Azureus has that uTorrent doesn't, and which I miss, is the ability to ban individual leechers with the click of the mouse. If you're a windows user, then uTorrent is (or should be) definitely the BT client of choice.

What sort of problem, Raq?
General, or specific to a style you're trying to use?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Can anyone point me towards a source for a digital-to-analog converter for my TV? The first of my local stations has discontinued analog broadcasts, and the rest will probably follow pretty soon.
I've had no luck with the local retailers -- not even Radio Shack has them.

dcp, we got our digital receiver two years ago off eBay. I sent Paul off to get me info on what someone should be looking for today in one, and he appears to have been eaten by the basement, so I hope to have information for you at some point tonight.
PS, all, thanks for the laptop help. Through the miracle of academic pricing, I wound up with a ThinkPad Z60t. It's nifty. I've named it Illyria.

Okay, Paul suggests hitting here: [link] (antennaweb.org).

Mostly lurking...
Ok. Stupid question.
I need toner for my laser printer. About a year ago, I bought a refurbished cartridge, and I swear it did not last nearly as long as other cartridges I bought...like less than half as long. I don't think I had replaced that cartridge for three or four years before that.
So, should I plunk down the big bucks for the HP cartridge, or should I try a different refurbished cartridge?
Or, should I just buy a new printer?

VW - the cartridge that did not last as long. How sure are you that were not printing more pages per week?
That said - there are different ways of refurbishing cartridges. Some refurbished cartridges reuse parts that are not really intended to be reused. Others are essentially a third party brand using the HP case. I've had luck with Rapid-Refill brand refurbished, and with Office Max's HP compatible brands. You dont' save a lot, but you save something and they do last as long as the HP. If someone knows of third party brand or reburished place that combines good with cheap I'd be interested in hearing about it as well.

Anyone around who can answer an xsl question for me?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Maybe.
