    Microsoft's The Ultimate Steal

    Apple has been giving discounts for students for many years. They even opened up a pseudo-apple-store at my school just so kids know that they can get a better deal since they are in school. How is that any different? Why aren't people freaking out about that?...

    Yellow wire in antique telephone?

    Not sure if this is right but from what I remember, there used to be black and yellow wires in one phone we had when I was younger. It used to light up and it got its power from a transformer block which feed the power into all the phone jacks in the house via the black and yellow wires. Maybe...

    Removing bloatware from a XPS 400?

    All the Dell's I have owned or setup never had any bloatware on the Windows install CD. Its generally just a OEM install CD with just some dell support information, etc. I have always used those to reformat and never had any issues.

    Nero Sees My DVD-RW as Image Recorder

    I forget what it is, but basically in any login but Admin in Windows, Nero will not let you get access to the burner. You have to download a program off Nero's website to change the permissions. I ran into a similar problem about 4 months ago. Here is the link to the program...

    10.4 Tiger on beige PowerMac G3 install issues.

    Techincally Tiger is not supported for the beige G3s (see link: Requirements.) I was only able to install 10.3 on one beige G3 and it was very flacky. You might be able to install it correctly, but it might just be that it is not supported and the OS will refuse to install (checks the BIOS or...

    11 G5s

    Unless you know the administrator password you are out of luck. I worked for my high school a few years ago, and one of the things we had to deal with were kids who thought it was "fun" to mess up the computers (also mac environment.) No one was ever successful, since we did a good job of...

    MCE & Gaming

    Windows XP MCE is based on Windows XP Pro. When you are installing the os, you can join a domain, but after that it is not possible to join a domain. The reason why this was removed was so that media center extenders could connect correctly to the computer. You get all the other features that...

    Olevia LT26HVE 26" ... my review

    You said that the first few pictures were screen shots, those do not take into account how the data is being sent to the monitor (VGA, DVI, S-Video, etc.) Those captures do not change depending on how your monitor is connected to the video card. The pictures taken with the digital camera do show...

    I have a silver V1000 and I have ordered some blue LED fans, to replace the ones that it comes with. I can post pictures of them when I get them.
