'Lessons'
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!
Well, the great experiment to recover the USB drive has failed. I can't even reformat it blank now. Very irritating. I backed it up before it failed utterly, but now I'm nervous about relying on the technology as much as I had been--keeping email on a locked drive, primarily. Most everything else is duplicated somewhere else, but the email contains sent messages that weren't anywhere else.
How did I break it? Unplugged it before ejection was complete. Caveat user.
ita, I broke a whole computer by unplugging the keyboard. Some of us just have the gift ;)
I don't want the gift. Somebody take it back.
A virtual PC for every person. So this is web 2.0, huh? I have to say, it's a nifty idea. Perhaps more durable than a flash drive. Still, it's more comforting to have your data where you can degauss at need.
Huh.
Office suite (for G.ho.st Drive files): Zoho and ThinkFree
I've never used those - what are they like?
zoho is pretty good -- for the word processing anyway -- I didn't have to lok hard for anything like i did for google docs
My connection is too slow to render g.ho.st useful. I like the idea, though.
Argh. ferchrissake, does anyone know where the "volume Mixer" went in Vista?
Crazy Wiring, Part 5I should take pictures of my new job and submit. It's not all I.T. wiring, but equally harrowing in places.
I got my desktop computer back from MicroCenter and my data is secure! And it works! And so on...
Except that I used to have a 640Gb hard drive partitioned into two equal size drives of ~320Gb... and now I only seem to see one ~320Gb (which shows 288Gb in Windows Explorer, but IIRC that's normal).
My question is... is this something that I can fix here at home, or had I better get on the horn back to MicroCenter and start complaining pronto?
