  1. Simple Cheap Solution on Ask Slashdot: Suggestions For a Simple Media Server? · · Score: 1

    Get ViMu for your device. http://www.vimuplayer.com/ I don't know if it works with Netgear NeoTV Max, but I use on a Logitech Revue and it works great. Plex used way to much resources. ViMu uses almost no resources on your PC other than to read your media, no resource intensive transcoding - all the work is done on the device's (in my case the Logitech Revue) native hardware. It is very simple to setup and works great. It doesn't have all the fancy bells and whistles of Plex, but it supports different sound tracks and subtitles very well.

  2. Re:I'm not suprised on Boston Replacing Microsoft Exchange With Google Apps · · Score: 4, Informative

    I couldn't find anything recent, but this has a summary: http://arstechnica.com/business/2011/10/google-apps-hasnt-met-lapds-security-requirements-city-demands-refund/

    It also appears that consumerwatchdog.org may have been hired by Microsoft to attack Google: http://techrights.org/2009/05/04/consumer-watchdog-exposed/

  3. Finally! on Sources Say ITU Has Approved Ultra-High Definition TV Standard · · Score: 1

    It seemed like all the manufactures of relatively cheap monitors were standardizing on the less dense HDTV to the detriment of programmers and all others who like lots of screen real estate. Now, hopefully, they will slowly standardize on the new "ultra" density and all will be right with the world.
