  1. Re:Power? on Why Do We Have To Restart Routers? · · Score: 1

    I also used to have to restart my cable modem or router every few days. Putting them onto a UPS solved the problem.

  2. Re:Blew it out of proportion? on Review of Apple's "Mighty Mouse" · · Score: 1
    My Apple bluetooth mouse goes through batteries quickly, a set every few weeks.

    Also whenever the mouse gets dropped it loses its bluetooth connection, and there doesn't seem to be any way to get it back without restarting the computer. This stinks, with kids around who are prone to dropping the mouse.

    My Logitech cordless mouse goes months on a set of batteries, and never loses its connection.

    I like the idea of a wireless mouse from Apple, but I haven't been impressed to date.

  3. The other extreme on trust on Pinnacle, Online Grades, Skipping School and More · · Score: 1
    My kids attend the Sudbury Valley School in Framingham, MA, which is at the other extreme.

    There are no grades and no homework. I trust the kids to find challenges and learn what they need to learn.

    The kids who come out this environment are amazingly self-confident and capable.
