  1. How about instead of blaming iphone users on Why AT&T Should Dump the iPhone's Unlimited Data Plan · · Score: 2

    Fix the damn network, this argument is crap. if the amount of data use is killing the network then why the hell are the pushing broadband cards and netbooks which have much larger data usage than an Iphone.

  2. Re:Interesting on Atari 1200XL Stacked Up Against a Dell Inspiron · · Score: 1

    Ahhh those were the days. i remember it would take an 1hr to download a single side of a disk. 127K if i remember correctly...

  3. Road warrior perspective on Testing 3G Networks Across the US · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I'm constantly on the road traveling and have had all three services, i can tell you Verizon has had the best coverage around the county, specially rural areas, whats the point of having the fastest network if when you need it you cant connect. this is where ATT and sprint fall short on.

  4. Dont depend on only one backup on What Do You Do When the Cloud Shuts Down? · · Score: 1

    Have more than on type of backup, online is a good form of offsite backup but always have somthing else.

  5. Simple solution to loose weight. on IT Workers Are Getting Fatter · · Score: 1

    the key is to get off your ass workout at least 30min each day and eat every 3 hrs between 330-350 calories stay away from sugar and rice. you can take 1 day a week off to take care of any cravings
    I lost 90lbs in 11 months using this planand and managed to fit back into size 32 pants, its hard at first but if you stick to it yoll see major results.

    just remenber it's not a diet but a lifestyle chage. Diets dont work!

  6. Yeah Right... on Comparing 3G Networks · · Score: 1

    He must be the exception, form our tests sprint and Verizon have the best coverage and speed, we have over 30 users that are on the road constantly up and down the east coast from Florida to NY.
    We used to use ATT but switched over to sprint and some Verizon due to the coverage factor, and when 3g is not available we can use 1xRTT which is by far still faster than EDGE.

  7. Re:Offer them free I2/NLR connectivity! on Cuba Lifts Ban on Home Computers · · Score: 4, Informative

    You are sadly misinformed. i have relatives in Cuba an the medical care there is very bad. yes the doctors and free but there is no medicine or supply's to help the public, my nice had a baby just recently and we had to actually provide all the sutures and thread to close her c section, not to mention when your taken to a hospital you need to bring your own sheets towels Etc. the only ones that get quality and cheap treatment are foreigners which pay. By far the worst care here is 10x better than what they have there.

    Stop believing the Lies a few socialist nut jobs are perpetrating.

  13. Good Lord.. on Seattle Wireless TV Releases June 2004 Show · · Score: 1

    I just watched the segment with the lessnetworks guy promoting the free wireless access in Austin. Besides being the worst presentation I've ever seen .The first thing that comes to mind is why complicate things they aren't making any profit they obviously don't have a business model and aren't interested. Wouldn't it be simpler for the owner of any establishment that wants to offer free WIFI to get a DSL line and pop in a wireless router like a leave it open.

    Excuse me. I hate to tell you this but windows has a command prompt and you can use it for all sorts of maintenace insted of the GUI. so like you said if your to lazy to learn how to properly administer a windows server dont talk out of your ass on how convoluted and impractical GUI approaches to things that are so easily done in a command prompt.

  21. Not for long. DVD+RW will eventualy win. on The Most Compatible DVD Format: DVD-R · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Give it a year or so DVD+RW will eventually take over, just look at most popular pc's coming out to market from Dell ,Hp and Gateway all the models that have DVD writers are DVD+RW. It wont be long before there will be more DVD+RW's than DVD-RW's in the market. This will make media manufactures lower media prices and DVD player manufactures make more compatible units.

  23. Upgrade issues. on Windows Server 2003 Is A Small Step Forward · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I took a 2 day hands on class on 2003 server. Microsoft was demonstrating all the new features 2003 comes with and one of them was that you could rename the domain or forest on the fly. but it would break a few active directory applications such as SQL 2000 and exchange 2000 when the class presenter came out from left field and nearly floored everyone when he said "since were on the exchange subject be aware that you can not run exchange 2000 on windows 2003 server". You would need a mix server environment which will then not allow some of the new features work, or wait for exchange titanium to be release at the end of the year.
