Actually as long as you have a MOBO that supports DDR2, it is backwards compatible. The only real issue I see is that if you have one stick that is a DDR and one that is a DDR2, they will both work at the DDR more then likely so if you are trying to upgrade a system with more memory, I'd take that i...

ElTaco

The DDR2 is better. It can operate twice the speed of DDR on the external memory bus because it is supposed to be much more efficient. In other words, its faster at moving data to and from memory across the bus which is an improvement but you have to have a mobo that supports it I assume. At the end...

Did anyone get it or order the phone yet? From what I heard it came out today for T-Mobile. Apparently there were a lot of orders already and there is a lot of interest but not sure if they had the lines that iphone had. Then again, google isn't playing the games that apple/Att did so no big surpris...

ElTaco

Anyone seen the new Blackberry Storm? I hope the price will be similar to the iphone/google phone. Seems to offer a lot of the same stuff the iphone does, and then some. It should be out on the Verizon network first.

ElTaco

Not a 100% sure what you are babling about. That MS Fax picture viewer came with MS Office so if you don't have that anymore, you can look at some other stuff. My suggestion is to download Google's Picasa and use that. It is a great picture viewer. Does some very basic editing (a bit more then the f...

Ok so plenty of you do web development and from the pictures posted, I'm sure there is plenty of you who play with cameras. Can you share what cameras you use along with what tools you use to edit your pictures. I myself have been playing with a K1000 for a while and finally got myself a Nikon D60 t...

I'm excited. I think the interface of the Iphone will be hard to beat but I also think that the applications will quickly beat what is available for the Iphone and even the Microsoft based phones. Currently, I have a Microsoft phone (HTC - XV9600) and I love it for the most part. It has a touch scre...

I have never purchased an off brand battery either but mainly because I haven't owned a personal laptop for about 5 years now (jobs always supply me with one) 3rd party batteries are a big business and they tend to be as reliable as the manufacturer one. Don't forget that Dell usually undersells mac...

I can't say that I have experience in putting on a webinar but have worked with meeting software. As far as features go, most will have very similar features, such as desktop and application sharing, whiteboard features, voice or phone/dialin, etc.. I've personally have used WebEX, Livemeeting.com a...

Batteries aren't that expensive but if your laptop is under warranty, you may want to get a battery soon and see if its being charged properly. I have had numerous laptops where the problem was with the laptop and not the battery. Besides that, most manufacturers sell batteries for an OK price. Ther...

The quickest and easiest way is to do a screen capture (hit print screen or alt-print screen) and paste into MS Paint or other program that can take graphics. This will not necessarily give you the same image resolution but it is quick and dirty and good enough for most things. There are also progra...

Then wtf is she doing bragging about it? Obviously, not only doesn't she have anything to do with it but there wasn't much reform going on.

Added some free and pay tools to the first post. Anyone have any new ripping/burning tools for DVDs and CDs?

So far I like it as well. I think there are definitely some issues that need to be worked out still but a solid start non the less. I'd say the adblocker is very needed and some of the bugs and handling of certain sites needs to be fixed but over all I like the combination of good features from all ...

I can honestly say I'm still a Vista Newb because I will not touch it with a 10 foot stick! Honestly just don't see a reason to. Thankfully my company averted disaster by putting off the Vista upgrade for now. I am certain it will have to happen at some point but for now we are safe! I hate these ne...

ElTaco

My bad for not answering. I was out of town for over a week. Anyway, I would agree that while an LCD TV and Monitor are basically the same, but not entirely. The technology is implemented slightly differently since they are displaying different things and more importantly, as it was already pointed ...

ElTaco

Technically yes you could probably do it but I would not recommend it and you would probably waste money getting it to work. You are better off purchasing an LCD monitor and connect the computer and xbox into that. They have LCD monitors that are as small as 20" and go up to fairly large size. ...

ElTaco

VT will at some point be a top 5 contender only to lose a game and finish in the top 10 or top 15.

ElTaco

There are so many stupid issues with Vista, I or my company won't even touch it for now.

ElTaco

Nice! Any results yet?

ElTaco

I've heard a ton of stuff about Rockbox too for quite a while. However, I'd have to ask first if you have tried different ear phones/head phones to see if that is not the problem.

ElTaco

I should also mention that it looks like you can test it for free so It should only take you an hour or two to download and do an initial conversion of a form or two and see how well it would work. I'm sure you or the company have a spare system or your home laptop/pc that you could quickly build a ...

ElTaco

Well, I was thinking it could be as simple as taking your Access forms and saving them as HTML/ASP files. This converter certainly sounds much more impressive. One advantage I see is the use of AJAX and even switching you to MS SQL, but the question is, do you have anyone to clean up the code and fi...

if you just 'reinstall' on top of your current system, they will not be over ridden as they are not windows files, although any hooks they may have put into windows may no longer be there. I would try to uninstall the extra sound card, and get the build in one to work, then plug in the new one. Soun...

Nice. Nothing like starting yet another 'drug' war to really spend the money where its needed. From Iraq to protecting the music industry.

I"m planning to pick it up this weekend. What's another weekend of doing nothing but sitting in front of the TV and playing this game?

I figure between this game and Mario Kart, I'll be set for the next week or so.

ElTaco

Yeah that sounds very crappy, but you also said you have a wireless provider, so those numbers don't really surprise me that much. Most cable/DSL companies are battling for control which means they are throwing more and more bandwidth at people and then trying to fight the 'abusers'/P2P users. Perso...

ElTaco

It sounds like you are probably screwed because you are too small. If you said you were spending $100k and wanted to save some money, sure there are plenty of ideas, but you are talking about 4 people/offices. Generally when larger companies try to consolidate, they go from paying for individual int...

I would totally like Fios but the retards can't go 100 yards in to hit my house yet. Stupid verizon needs to stop sitting on their ass and get it to me!

Should of sent him to one of the services where he would have had to pay to have it unzipped. Nothing like having to use your hard earned $$$ to learn a lesson.

Nice save.

Sadly I have to admit that at this point and time I do not have any machines actively running linux and unix. I do have several boxes at home that have linux and Solaris installed but they are all off sitting in a corner. If you are looking to play, I would start with some LiveCD stuff or maybe with...

Ok so I'm planning to do another Livestrong Challenge this year with some friends/family members but need a team name. Any ideas? The plan is for most of us to ride the bike. Anyone interested in doing a Century in August?

Any ideas?

OK so perhaps you run your own business or work for a company and do some IT stuff or perhaps you are just a developer or administrator of a few machines that others rely on, how do you remotely fix problems? Our company of course does VPN connection for remote employees and this allows me to do my ...

Ok so depending on what you are doing, you have multiple options: You could move the database or keep the current database. PSUFan has a good point about postgresql but really, if you move the database or even if you stay on MS SQL, it sounds like you will need to re-develop some of it. The nice thi...

ElTaco

I guess it depends on what you are trying to do but PSUFan makes a good point. If you have an application built into MS Access, its easy enough to publish most of it into HTML and that should speed up your connection. If you are using Access to randomly pull out data and send sql statements that you...
