speaking of cable, has anyone used, tried, heard about the AT&T U-verse? It sounds like Verizon FiOS. Video over IP. Instead of streaming ALL channels, like traditional cable, it only streams the channel you are viewing. It also claims you can record upto 4 programs at once (4 standard def programs, or 1 HD + 3 SD). As Time Warner cable is pissing me off, I am loosely considering it. Just looking for 1st hand knowledge.

I picked up this [link] monitor for free from someone on Craigslist who has had it in storage for five years.
Works perfectly. W00t!
Also, it has a little pull-out section on the side of the controls section on bottom that has a second VGA connector so you can hook up a laptop from the front, or a second PC, and toggle between them via a button on the panel.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My Flash drive's U3.exe has given up the ghost again. I am unthrilled. I don't want to have to reinstall the apps.

Hey, what's the cheapest way to clean off the screen and outside of a glossy powerbook? Smudges. Cathair.

Apple:
Cleaning Your PowerBook
Follow these general rules when cleaning the outside of your computer and its components:
* Shut down your PowerBook and remove the battery.
* Use a damp, soft, lint-free cloth to clean the computer’s exterior. Avoid getting moisture in any openings. Do not spray liquid directly on the computer.
* Don’t use aerosol sprays, solvents, or abrasives.
Cleaning Your PowerBook Display
To clean your PowerBook screen, do the following:
* Shut down your PowerBook and remove the battery.
* Dampen a clean, soft, lint-free cloth or paper with water only and wipe the screen. Do not spray liquid directly on the screen.
That having been said, if the damp cloth had a watered-down bit of Simple Green in it, it might help the smudges. Then go over it again with a clean damp cloth to remove possible residue.

I've been using eye glass cleaning cloths for the outside of mine.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
