  1. This is old news. This same headline pops up every year. Netflix has to find it's own way with original content.

  2. Weird Location on Welcome to the Goodwill Computer Museum (Video) · · Score: 3, Informative

    I visited there last year when I was in Austin for Formula 1. We happened to stumble upon the location as it's located in a strip mall right next to a Wal-Mart. The museum is pretty cool and has some neat stuff. If you are in the area it's definitely worth a look. There is also a great Goodwill computer store right next door with parts for older stuff (Mostly Dell, of course).

    Balbus000, Sorry, I did not intend to imply that access to accounts was lost or removed, but that Google has systematically been making the service less attractive and more restrictive in order to drive customers to the paid version. Thanks.

  4. I'm served just fine by the free Google Apps on Google Axes Free Google Apps For Businesses · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I have been a free Google Apps user for years and I've never had any issues with it. The lack of support hasn't ever bothered me. I've helped several other people sign up for the free version as well and no support has ever been needed for them either. This is just a case where the free version was good enough and was keeping people for signing up for the paid version. It's always about the money. They have been thinking about killing this service for while now. When I originally signed up, I had access to 100 address. Soon after the limit had been dropped to 50 and then to 10 accounts. I think when the service launched, there was no limit on accounts.

    Yes. As a paid subscriber, we have the ability to turn off ads in Gmail.

  6. Re:stopped using it? on Why Microsoft Killed the Windows Start Button · · Score: 1

    Their focus group would consist of probably most, if not all, home users and lot of business users. Microsoft gets data directly from Windows users as anonymous usage statistics. It's the same way that they know that most people don't use Windows Media Center.

  7. Re:WHS V1 on Ask Slashdot: DIY NAS For a Variety of Legacy Drives? · · Score: 1

    I second this idea. Very simple to setup. WHS v1 will adopt every drive that you can attach.

    Nope, just the shipping address.

    If I'm not mistaken, fox and speed are both owned by the same company.
