I recently got a 2008-ish mac book (2.16ghz C2D) from a friend after the hard drive had died on him. I quickly zipped off to newegg and bought a seagate 500 GB hybrid hard drive and 3gb of ram for it. I also purchased snow leopard and installed that. it boots up way faster than any other PC...

thanks for the info guys. unfortunately knowing the age of my current cards I have a feeling its going to be the NTSC signal (I remember seeing that come up a few times) I checked out the link you posted (very helpful, im surprised it didnt show up in my google searches). I punched in my zip...

Right now I have a couple of little shuttle Korporate PC's around my house (office, living room, bedroom) each with the haupagge dual-tuner PCI card. I have Basic comcast cable and the hauppage cards work just fine for me. I dont fuss with pay channels or HD content. Im looking into buying...

I have a first or 2nd generation xbox360 so it doesnt have a HDMI port on it, Im going off to college again and unfortunately I'll only have my 30" HP this year as my old TV broke. My HP only has DVI inputs I have the VGA cable for my xbox and I was going to buy the component / composite...

the switch doesnt transmit much traffic at all. there are maybe 20 machines attatche to it which grab small text files for CNC machines once an hour or so. none of the machines are configured to allow for internet access by the machinists in the shops so the traffic is next to nothing. its...

Im getting a wierd response from a cisco 2900 series switch. if I ping it directly, i get a response of abut 40ms ... horrible! however if I ping 1 hop up i get a response of >1ms ...? in fact I went 6 hops up (as far as I can go and still stay on my network) and im getting responses of 1...

Thanks for all the help so far, I've spent the last week reading the cisco ccna study guide reading up on my vlans and I have another question. alright, heres what I understand so far. My AP has two SSID's, employee's and guests. Currently my network has 1 vlan, the default vlan1. So i will...

Im going to disagree and come out and say that I want one. Im actually really excited about this thing, its one of the coolest ipods I've seen in a while. I like the speech thing, the size is amazing, and I think the controls will be better on the headphone. 3rd party vendows already...
