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!
Sigh. I have had a dell laptop for a year and a half, and now need to buy my SIXTH ac adapter (never a dell again. A fire almost started last night.) Anyone used a universal adapter?
I had one that had all sorts of little tips you could switch out to fit different models. It was nice because I could use the same adapter for my work and home laptops. ETA it was an iGo from Radio Shack.
Thanks!
OK, according to the delicious blog, they aren't planning on shutting it down as much as selling it. [link]
Good to know.
I wonder if we'll ever know if that's what they planned all along, or that's them recovering in the face of response.
I read that they fired all the staff, which seems final.

It could be them looking at the response and going, "Hey, someone might pay us money for this."
"Hey, someone might pay us money for this."
This, with a side of "oh, crap, everyone on the whole internet is yelling at us!!"
Where did you move to instead of drop.io, LeN? I should offer my sister a good alternative.
Okay, so it kind of depends on what services your sister was using on drop.io:
1) for files, I continue to use dropbox and I ponied up for a year's subscription. The free versions are less space, but all the features. It is easy to use files with dropbox and you can share folders or individual files. I also use cloudapp to share files as well.
2) for voicemails, I use google voice
3) if I want to provide a link for people to send me files, I use dropitto.me which works with dropbox. There is a size limit for that though - which isn't a problem for me.
I heard some people really like mediafire for file sharing.
