The justification for caps is that some people are using too much bandwidth - okay as far as it goes. But what happens when the service provider exempts certain uses? For example, RoadRunner users are sucking up the bits big time when they use the TV on demand service or TimeWarner's telephone service but those don't…

The writer of this article studied George Orwell's "1984" quite well - and used every trick Big Brother did. The article is a fantastic collection of partial truths, lies, and misdirection. What a crock.

Most of my recipes are printed on cards but on occasion I'll grab one from the Internet and not have time to clean it up and print it. So I put it into EverNote and sync my iPod Touch and take it into the kitchen with me. Much more convenient (and safer) than taking my computer into the kitchen - or trusting my memory.

I got burned buying a new computer that came with a sticker that assured me the computer was ready for Vista. This notebook was released two months AFTER Vista was released for consumer purchase. The computer was NOT ready for Vista, nor was my 1 year old multipurpose printer. My digital camera wouldn't connect and my…

If you are just now starting to study it is likely too late. For me, the secret was a little bit at a time all the time. I did my readings and made notes in the margins. In class I took notes. Depending on my schedule, at least once a week I made a new set of notes incorporating both sets of notes and anything I…

TPTMANN01 - CCC is a donationware program for cloning your hard drive to another drive. Another similar program is SuperDuper!, a shareware program which does much more - but the simple cloning function is free. Both are great programs.

If Apple is keeping to schedule then we have only a couple more weeks to wait for Leopard. But when it arrives, I'll be doing what I've been doing for the last 10 years: I'll mirror my current system so I have an exact duplicate of my boot drive and then I'll install Leopard. This gives me a known rock solid stable…

Back when I was doing consulting work I had a few simple rules for myself and my clients when it came to backups.

eproteus - FileVault is en encrypted disk image. Quoting from the article, which you obvious didn't read, "How it works: FileVault encrypts the users's home directory and all the files in it. "

Mac user: DevonThink Pro, Dragster, Parallels Desktop, RapidWeaver and a few assorted goodies to go with it. I gave the Win World a big fat $0, but did donate a few dollars to open source projects.

1) get a crate. At least for a few weeks each time you put the puppy into the crate give it a small treat.

The best version of Vista is no version at all. What it brings to the table are more promises, smoke, and mirrors. XP is good enough for an operating system that is designed to be good enough. Why give the monopoly more of our cash for such a small return.

There are lots of people who are well served by Windows. Some, like me, love to tinker with hardware and obviously except for case modding there's not much there for us in the Mac world. Others are the high tech equivalent of Ford owners who wouldn't consider buying a Chevy under any conditions. But this thread isn't…

I use the Takeway too. When the seller isnât willing to negotiate fairly I Takeaway my wallet. It is amazing how quickly a seller becomes interested in negotiating when I walk away.
