Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

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!

so, I downloaded the ios6 update to save for later and I will update my phone via itunes. I still update my phone via itunes and not OTA.

Gud, thanks!

I'll run it by D, since he's the one who would have to cuss...I mean, set it up!

You're on a roll, Jon.

Can you migrate b.org to new hosting now?

Our wings are not tired

My 4S updated to iOS6 with no apparent problems. I'll tackle the iPads and the work iPhone 4 later today.

If you set up a print server, just make sure it's on a static ip address (I find using the router to do that easiest). You don't want it shifting around.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

So instead of downloading iOS 6, I downloaded Prometheus from iTunes. It started with 45 minutes remaining, and after an hour of downloading, there's 3 hours remaining.

Yeah, I was just curious to see what would happen with download speed....

Jessica,

google maps has a web app that you can add to your home screen for directions, etc. That looks doable to me.

Even under the prior IOS, I found myself using the Google Map's web app. It was the only way I could bring up saved maps.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Does anyone have any recommendations for something I can use to time web pages loading? I'm looking for simple and free, unsurprisingly. I'd love to get away from clockwatching for comparing these two architectures' performances.
