    Electronics on Foreign Soil

    Sorry, I didn't mean to ignore the question. It's for a laptop. I haven't owned a desktop in years. As for the converter, I used a few. I can't give you brand names or anything because I didn't buy them. They were leant to me. The first converted between 50W to 1500W, like the one in this...

I know that bugs are annoying and all, and I was cursing my recent iOS update too because it messed with my music....and I don't want anyone messing with my music! But I think that what we need to remember is that developments...

    How to Decide Between a Cloud vs. Dedicated Server

    Yes, sorry. I definitely should have been more specific about that. It's an ecommerce website. So any server downtime means losing revenue. I'm currently on a dedicated server, but I'm just looking into my options for what is best for my business for the future. By dedicated server, I mean...
