you'd be surprised by how many cable techs can't put on proper f connectors, so it's not really so crazy to think that you're service tech will look there first, and then the problem goes away, at least for a while, but they're only there for an hour, so to them it looks like it's fixed. if you get a different tech to your house everytime you have a problem, it's not likely the problem will ever get fixed, most techs are trained to go about finding a problem the same way, because most of them were never trained with any real technical skill, they were just told how to do installs, and sent on there way, so don't blame your service tech, we're way too overworked, and there just isn't time to look at everything...
p.s.
i do more than replace connectors,
cable service tech(not for comcast however, they do suck, my company isn't so much better, but our techs are better trained, at least around here)
the only way to not tear up asphalt would be to hang aerial lines, which many people find ugly, and are redicuously horrible to try to rehang after large storms...trust me, technician for a cable company here, i hate rehanging aerial lines, i'd love it if everything were underground
as a current cable tech for charter, i will fear the day that a customer can plug in their own equipment. You may be able to do it, but trust me 99% of cable suscribers, are clueless...the last thing i need is more service calls to go on
As a contractor for Charter doing home broadband installs, i have to say i hate the zero cost installs...makes for long work days...too many people ordering broadband, i worked 13 hours yesterday, doing nothing but broadband installs
my imac does the same thing, i'm certain it's the intellimouse, i have one as well, and the imac never woke up from sleep at random times until i hooked up the new mouse.
you do know that the review is actually at the top of this page. and so reposting it down here is so very redundant. the reason for reposting an article is to get around the overloaded servers, or to get around having to register with a site to read it. so why exactly did you copy and paste this article and repost it?
and you really think adding something like a gaming browser into the OS is a good thing? now i enjoy games as much as anyone, but making gaming specific things like a server browser to find games, just seems like completely unnecessary bloat. and software bloat is never, never a good thing...
safari 1.2.4 seems to be working normally, i didn't see anything that resembled a vulnerability to me, so i guess it's one of those things apple users get to be safe from again while we sit back and enjoy the havoc that everyone else deals with?
I need a girl like OS X, sure she's expensive, but she's easy to use, and always ready to multitask to make sure you have the best user experience possible
until you've seen a movie where they not only invent the sword, but also the bow and arrow, you just haven't seen a movie...and sam pasco...could that guy be any more oiled up? i didn't think cave men could be so beefy...
