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!
Thanks so much!
Interviews probably can't be recreated, cause given his field these are probably people who won't redo the interview, and asking for new interviews cause the old ones were destroyed won't help his future career prospects in any case. He really really should have backed up.
But the a data recovery service, if it can recover this data will really save his ass. So thanks again.
Although this is useful mainly for British Buffistas, it is such a clever design I had to share it. If you appreciate the sheer beauty of really clever design you will like it. Maybe more towards the genius end of the spectrum than just clever. Or if you are British and use portable electronic devices. Tremendous space-saver on portable plugs.

dude, that is an awesome design. I like the folded 3 plugs in one at the end.
I need this.
Looking for that extra bit of screen real estate to get you through the busy workday? Referring to notes while writing an e-mail, checking info in a spreadsheet while entering data into a web page, keeping an eye on your to-do list while browsing YouTube... it's handy to have additional monitor space at the ready. Problem is an entire secondary monitor comes with its own needs like requiring a separate power cord or perhaps an additional video card.
The Mimo Mini USB Monitor changes this equation completely by offering a low-maintenance relationship between you and an extra display. A single USB connection from your computer gets you an instant high-resolution secondary display. This awesome display is perfect for your IM client, widgets, PC gaming tools, your email, a spreadsheet, your PhotoShop tools, or even video! Not only do these displays enhance productivity, they look great! The single USB connection, combined with a weight of only 1.3 pounds, means the Mimo monitor is ultra portable and cost-effective, as no expensive extra video cards are required.
Huh. I'm trying to decide if it's worth $129 to me....
I have no TV. Got the digital converter, got a digital antenna - no reception. None at all.
This whole thing is a plot to force everyone to get cable, right?
You live in the District, right? I find it hard to believe that you get no reception.
Have you rescanned all channels since the digital transition?
Can't get enough reception to scan - the converter box won't recognize any kind of signal.
I admit, the problem may be that I'm in an old apartment building with thick walls.
Ha! Love this line:
"Of course you don't have to actually wire all the outlets on the whole wall for electricity, but you'd better come up with a good way to remember which ones are live."
Toddson, try AntennaWeb to determine which direction you need to point the antenna, and if you need an indoor/outdoor one: [link]
