    Need some powershell help

    I know this is old as hell, but I think you just need -Directory switch: dir C:\\dbtemp\* -Directory | foreach-object { copy-item -path C:\program\tempfile.accdb -destination $_ -force }

    Sharp Aquos 50" LCD $548 + $200 Dell Gift Card

    The wording on the item looked weird. Do I pay $548 and then get a $200 gift card afterwards? Or is the price $748, but they apply a $200 gift card instantly? Also, thx for the info regarding the free $75

    5850 Crossfire or 7950/7970

    Awesome, thanks for the input everyone! Been debating on whether to go 7950 OC or 7970. I think you've convinced me to go the 7950 OC route. Does anyone know roughly what 5850's are going for nowadays? I checked the FS forum but they all seem to have sold pretty quickly, so I can't find the...

    You know what, I think its because you're trying to connect to a computer that's powered off :) You're just seeing the errors as its making the WMI connections. I'd imagine if you query every server in AD, some are bound to powered off, so you get the error. You can either sit through and...

    Hmmm, not sure why yet, but it only breaks when you try to put it into the $GetInfo variable. Running without '$GetInfo =' it works just fine. Need to play with this some more to see what's going on here.

    Audio-Technica ATH-A900X (or AD900) Headphones $128 @Buydig w/V.me

    Has anyone ever traveled with the A900X's? I want to bite on this deal so bad, but their primary purpose would be for when I fly. I'd hate to break them flying every week tossing them in and out of my backpack when they don't appear to fold up.

    Questions on Video Recording

    Great info here, just a couple points to add: 1 - AFAIK, cell phones are limited to the same 29 minute maximum recording length that any other device not deemed a "camcorder" are limited to. That's not to say you can't make a 29 minute video, then instantly kick off another, but you can't do...

    Lumia 900 vs Lumia 920, my quick comparison

    I'm admittedly one of the biggest WP8 fanboy's out there, but as nice as Drive is I can think of a few things Google Maps does better ....reading actual street names and the ability to easily reroute come to mind right away. Why Drive doesn't say street names baffles me, being that Bing Maps...

    Lumia 900 vs Lumia 920, my quick comparison

    As a former 7.5 (current 8) user, I never had issues with video output via Bluetooth - assuming you're referring to the audio. Also, WP8 backup/restore is a thing of beauty. Maps and (IMO) browser are both improved in WP8 as well.

    iPhone not top dog in 2013 ? Android + Windows gaining.

    iPhone not top dog in 2013 ? Android + Windows gaining.

    I disagree on both points here. The Lumia 920 runs at 60 fps and has a noticeably smoother display. Also, next time it gets cold, try using an iPhone 5 or an N4/Optimus G with gloves on - once you do, you'll realize "super sensitive touch screen" absolutely means a higher sensitivity. The...

    iPhone not top dog in 2013 ? Android + Windows gaining.

    Exactly. And when you put it that way, the extra storage, LTE, Office suite, and tight integration with SkyDrive made the extra $100 worth it to me.
