  1. Use Skydrive on Bill Gates: iPad Users Are Frustrated They Can't Type Or Create Documents · · Score: 1

    Using Skydrive via Safari lets you create MS Office documents. I do it all the time and find it quite useful.

  2. Re:TopGear on '09 Malibu Vs. '59 Bel Air Crash Test · · Score: 1

  3. Re:Any recommendations for a digital point-n-shoot on Kodak Kills Kodachrome · · Score: 1

    You could buy a used Fuji Finepix E900 for around US$80,-. It has great value, still. Use it with Sanyo Eneloop Rechargables and off you go for hours and hours of nonstop shooting: http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/specs/FujiFilm/fuji_finepixe900z.asp. It is a great small package and very convenient to use and carry. At the moment it anihilates our need (more lust, though) for a DSLR and videocam completely, as it is much more convenient to lugg around - to save the moments only parents ... you know what I mean ...

  4. I ... on In Leaked Email, NASA Chief Vents On Shuttle Program's End · · Score: 1

    .... quite do not understand, why NASA and ESA won t join all their forces to get the ATV and it s planned offsprings running high: http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/ATV/SEMNFZOR4CF_0.html It still puzzles me, that such closed allies run amok regarding the nationalistic approach inbuilding those technologies. I truly believe that this would speed up the programs schedule by 50% the least. It seems like the best concept out there, in direct comparison to the american proposal and the Kliper/Parom technology not yet developed by the russians due to unsolid fundings.

  5. There ... on Old Airlift Vehicle Concept Made New · · Score: 2, Informative

    ... is a German concept called "Cargolifter", which can claim prior art to this revocation of old technology. Read here for more info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cargolifter .

    Unfortunately, mostly to blame on bad managment and leadership, not really regarding technical creativity and expertise, they went bankrupt in 2002.

  6. Here is the fix for this exploit: on Safari Security Hole Allows Cookie Theft · · Score: 3, Informative

    http://hetima.com/soft/cookiemonsterfix.html Scroll down for the english explanations. But you also can proceed to download the DMG file itself, as substancial english documentation is included there. G

  7. This ... on New Pentium 5 Details - 5-7ghz? · · Score: 1

    ... is the ultimate wet dream INTeL engineers have after they experienced the implementation of the PowerPC 970 and its road map with frequencies up to 10 Ghz in the upcoming three years, shrinking the processes down to .65nm etc., you may speculate. I guess theyre really desperately trying to put their guts together. They are trapped, and they will - in futre times - will be caled the ones responsible changing the climate in the milky way. INTEL IS EVEN TOO HOT FOR HELL, THEY WOULD NEVER EVER GET ACCESS DOWN THERE!!!

  8. Possible internal drives on SuperDrive Options for Combo Drive PowerBooks? · · Score: 3, Informative

    These are the most common ones, as Apple itself is using these brands quite often.

    Matshita/Panasonic UJ-811 (tray loading) / UJ-815 (slot loading). Thats very much the mechanism MCE uses, as this drive is 2xDVD-R/RW/RAM; retails for around US$299 (tray) to US$350 (slot).

    Toshiba SD-R6112 (2xDVD-R/RW). Retails for around US$250 and is a great value.

    If you buy them, like, at http://www.esbuy.com/ or similar, they cost as much as an external one (the drive itself and the friewire enclosure).

    Its too sad, but here in Europe you dont get the Matshita UJ-811/815 drives. And theyre cute, 2xDVD-R/RW and DVD-RAM internal, puuuh.
