The chance of apple making a phone with a swappable battery is the same as apple open sourcing OSX. People have been saying the iPhone will be on verizon for the last 3 years. If it happens, it happens, I would not cross my fingers though.

I am sure this has been discussed before more times then ever, but I could not find the answer.. so here ya go. I am running freeNAS and am loving it, though I only have a 160gb drive in it right now. I want to add 3 500gb drives in a software raid 5. On my MB I have 2 Sata 1.5gb ports and a...

So I recently got a workstation used by one of my friends that had a Quadro FX 3500 256mb in it. I currently run a 7900GT 256mb PNY. I do a ton of drafting, so the fact that this card is made for that really intrigues me. Now my question is should I keep the 7900 in my computer or put int he...

Vice grips or a vice. You need to get a ton of pressure on it to get it to grab.

not exacly it, but close. Also, a European site... http://www.homestead.co.uk/productcategorydetail.aspx?categoryid=51300 I am sure that panduit or ortronics makes them.

You wont get anywhere untill that works. Your ISP could be blocking ports, give them a call tomorrow. What does this tell you your IP is? http://whatsmyip.org/

Probably because he wants to use it in the DVD players that everyone has in their home. There is a reason for standards.

That would explain it, now that I think about it and look at it further and actually read, I have seen these before.

Well, if it works it works, it just will not be as fast as a switch would be. I would not transfer different 20gb files from one computer to another all at the same time or you will get collisions left and right. After further review, this thing is pretty old, if you are just wanting to play...

As long as it complies to the 1000BASE-LX and whatever cable type you are using. You might want to ask if it is an actual hub, from my memory you can not run gbit through a hub, but you need a switch, I assume this is a typo. Due to the low price, I am also going to assume that this is a...

It could be a console connection or some other piece of management gear. Also, with fibre it is running the 802.3 ethernet standard, just a variation that allows it to run on fibre. It is still ethernet. Also, fiber gbt is no faster then copper gbt, you simply have a bit more distance to run...

You should be able to set the boot order in bios, that might work, but that will cause a few other problems when you get the thing actually booted up.

Hey all, I have been running a knopmyth box for about the last year, had to re-install a few times, would have moved up the the new version but my remote was not supported so I have been running RC57 for a long time now. I just installed a new HD (500gb Seagate) and another tuner card, (I have...

Wish I still had the pix, but I the first computer that I actually really got into was a brand new compaq 486 that I installed the upgrade 486 processor in as well as a reveal sound card/2x cd-rom combo (back when your CD-rom connected directly to the sound card). I remember playing wing...

Really, If you are just wanting to do something simple, Sketchup might just do it for ya, and its free. Otherwise I use Vectorworks and AutoCAD most often. Haven't ever worked with solid works, everyone I work with uses either of the programs I mentioned above (I'm in theatre).
