After having to create a new user name and password everytime I log into their website, I hope I'm done doing business with them. I have the two keyboards, and, I bought two covers. You might also look at the cheap, 2 dollar keyboards they have for sale. After spending 30 dollars for covers...

I have a pull out keyboard setup, under my desk. The cat gets the desk top, part of the problem with having the server and another keyboard, and the buckling springs are going on drawer, under the main desktop. This should stop any further intrusions, or spills. On top of that, I'm going to...

As much as I'm not a happy camper with these guys, they have some great deals on stuff in clearance: http://pckeyboard.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Store_Code=PCK&Screen=CTGY&Category_Code=BargainRack I bought a Kentucky bucking spring for 59 bucks, simply because it was too good a price to pass up...

I can't really say Unicomp screwed me on this one, but, circumstances certainly did, and it's my fault for not putting the keyboard in the safest place, and spilling stuff on it. Still, all in all, if I'd known how this was going to turn out, I wouldn't have sent the keyboard back to them: "On...

I know how you feel. I bought my current phone for certain features: Wifi Calling, in particular, which is supposed to be free with TMobile. Well, it isn't, unless you ask for the feature. What Bulls... I'm kind of happy with the setup I've got, other then not being able to root and actually...

Last malware I ran into was running a Czech Supermodel for images. EVERY page seemed to be malwared, and shut down by Nod32. I do use Nod32 at max settings, and the Beast runs it quickly. As Merc has pointed out, why not use a spare laptop I don't care about, just in case I run into a 'rootkit'...

I compared my phone to the Sensation. Appears the Sensation is a 1/2 inch wider. Not sure if it's worth losing the keyboard and the big battery. Seems like the phones should be about the size of a wallet to me.

I had four footed help. Still, the Unicomp seems to attract cat hair, any food particles, and funnel them through the keys to the board. Fit is already tight. Next time I'm putting it in the area that is protected by the desk, rather then on the desk. The Seal Shield seems to be a good...

Update: The unicomp did not take a hit from a wine glass well. Sending it back, and they are going to repair it. Almost not worth it, when you figure in shipping and fees. Panasonic CF 51 finally took a coffee cup on the keyboard, after 11 years. It's dried out, and appears to be in working...

My thought is it's sort of like having another wallet. My phone is about a 1/2" bigger then my wallet, either way, and half the width. I see no reason the screen couldn't be twice as wide, and still fit easily in my pocket. How's the speed on the EVO? I wonder if my 3600 battery would fit...

Hi I'm wondering if anyone has tried the HTC Sensation? Sam got me thinking the 4.3" screen might make up for lack of a Querty keyboard. Not sure if this phone has an SD slot...

That's actually kind of funny, in a weird way. Boot unlocker won't work on mine since it's been updated too far:steam:

The Nokia I had was like a dinosaur compared to 2.3.4 Android.

No natural gas in this apartment. Electric stoves.

Kind of funny, in a way. My ex=roommate, when he was working at PG&E was trying to use SQL server, as it changed versions, and Sharepoint to organize PG&E's massive pipeline database. I guess he made poor decisions on software for the task.

Yes, I noticed that. Always the problem with propane. Once it starts, it may or may not smell. Only one I used was the jet engine type, and, they do smell.

gas is the only option. Considering one of these propane units: http://www.amazon.com/Mr-Heater-Single-Tank-Top-Propane/dp/B00005LEXJ/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top

2.0's are the sweet spot, price wise, at Costco for 129.00, and falling. Where 139.

You are correct. I made a mistake. Retesting now. About 1.3 Kwh an hour.

A lot of my work is pulled off assigning websites, that require logins. I have to check this often, and, when I do, typing in a big password is not fun. Also, not really any value to anyone breaking into those sites.

Kind of curious WHY Sharepoint sucks.

Found one of the power problems in the house. I have a cute, old, forced air heater that works great to heat my room. Problem is it just used 100 Kwh in less then a half hour, heating my room. Considering the bill is for about 1200 Kwh, that little session IS most of the problem. Haven't...

CT: The only legacy item I have is the 4000N Laserjet, that may, or may not work through the hub/switch Cat 6 setup. Other then that, I have no use for PCI. The only things on the PCI bus on my server were cards to support SATA drives, since the Supermicro board didn't support SATA. That and...

No s;hit;-) I'm sitting here, thinking about what to do with all this old tech stuff. a 45 pound server case is cool, if for no other reason then air flow;-) I was thinking of trying a minimum build but, to be real, a modern laptop would do what I need this for. I would want to take advantage...

Hi Anyone have reasons for using the different browsers out? Which do you like? What do you like, and what don't you like? So far, using OperaMini, and Opera, Firefox, and Dolphin, though not much. Mainly want to be able to save favorites, easily access, and not have to type in huge passwords...

Tolerance to cold is determined by body fat content, and metabolism. I am fairly fit, and have a slow heart beat, and relatively low body fat. Also, genetic predisposition helps, and, since I'm primarily Italian, the Med is where I am comfortable. I grew up in L.A. for 11 years, and then the...

CT: Home office is a deduction in U.S., as I'm sure you are aware. It gets into the category of spend money on computer, or pay in money in tax, you have your choice. This has always been my motivating factor. However, since doing folding @ home, and new roommate, plus cold spell, the PG&E bill...

Thanks for the lookout;-) I still have the case and power supply. Not to mention the ATI video card rocks, for an AGP card. Guess I better pull and ebay them as well. Anybody else noticed that ebay has tacked 10% on the TOTAL sale price, including shipping, handling fees, etc, on top of the...

iPhone Foxconn report: "Use women as men, and men as animals." http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/business/2012/02/06/grant-china-sour-apple.cnn Workers rights in China? Right to die, maybe...

Hi Moderator and friends: Since this topic is "Android phones:..." Would you please move the tablet discussion to the tablets thread? I like to check on progress on phones.

Thanks for reminding me. I sold, or trashed all my SCSI drives. I think I have a LSI 320-1 raid card I need to ebay.

The more I work with it, the more I realize I don't really have or need anything much out side my ancient Panasonic laptop for this stuff. With the new Nazi laws, btjunkie going down, and I'm pretty sure the decline of torrents, I don't see much reason to invest in another box that eats more...

34 and chance of rain. Long underwear again....

http://www.rackmountmart.com/html/srCase.htm My case is essentially the SC1006 or this one: http://www.coolerguys.com/840556068044.html I'm looking for an excellent motherboard chipset, and gigabyte, lots of SATA ports, and a low powered cpu, that doesn't take a lot of power.

36 and snow this morning

BBB: The problem I've had is always getting the files from the virtual machine to the regular machine. Usually driver issues. On the otherhand, this would be the first time I wouldn't be using an archaic, or just old, like 2003 Server, install on the virtual box. Might work. Cougtek=The...

Thanks David

I think the dual xeon girl got mad at me when I was discussing replacing her with a system from Merc, or buying CT's MB;-( OS went south, when the PCI 3 Ware cards' bios failed. Two vertex Turbos appear fine, and work in the beast. She's blue screening all the time, and one of those little...

Very funny. Just feels that way right now. Legs need pain killers from running bases like I was 21...

It's my Birthday. It's early, and I have to be on a baseball field at something absurd like 7:30, and, it's freezing, literally: 32 degrees. Looks like my thin long underwear just turned thick.

HMMM. So if you change computers, they want you to unregister the computer, delete all your files, and start fresh on a new computer? What happens with a hard drive failure?

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131643 Look carefully at the reviews. 57% only for a server quality motherboard being 5 stars? :eek:

Clocker: That's too sensible an approach. Plus, it doesn't have the snob factor of playing your car sound system off a phone. I'm with Merc on this one. In particular leaving the phone in the car. I'm sure that will go over very well in the area he lives in and, the guys will look in, see the...

Buying a dual socket server board from Asus????? :eek: That has to be close to the ultimate oxymoron. Reliable=/Asus

The Borg have arrived, and are quietly implanting stuff. Spent the entire day trying to s-off and gain root access, if only temporary, without loading another os. After trying everything, I've found this update has shot me in the foot: Unread Yesterday, 03:31 AM # 37 Originally Posted...

I have tried installing itunes once. It lasted about 5 minutes, and was uninstalled. My girlfriend has an ipad, and ipod. My understanding is you can only do one install of itunes, on one computer, and must use that computer for loading the ipod? This was what I was told when I suggested she...

Merc: My on sale stereo headphones from Motorola, 35 bucks, allow me to change songs and volume from the headset. The sound quality is good to very good. Bluetooth, no wires.

I am predisposed to never buy another appl product after OS X failed to support a LOT of very expensive SCSI equipment. That said, it doesn't mean the iphone doesn't have SOME merits. I mean you can fool everyone most of the time, but still, must be some good things happening to manage to get...

Whatever. I don't care if it survived being run over by a tank, I'm not getting into another appl closed system.

I was looking for something that was a bit more reasonably priced then the Alfa. Buying a wireless card that is more expensive then a motherboard-cpu combination, that then puts the antenna down behind the computer, an excellent source of interference makes me think there has to be a better way...
