*** Official iPad 2 Launch Thread and other things announced on 3/2/11 ***

It might be coincidence, but I was watching a TED conference on Hulu and the main speaker mentioned that Apple differentiates their products from others (HP, Samsung, Motorola, etc.) because they think different. They basically answer the 'why' rather than the 'what' - essentially they make...

Trying to stop Firefox from downloading .swf's

Yeah, I'd use NoScript. It blocks Flash along with a whole bunch of other stuff

Best music player for Windows 7?

I use VLC. I used to use Foobar2000, but I really didn't need all that customization.

Are 3D TVs Worth It?

I'm debating on buying a new television. In terms of the new 3D televisions out right now, I'm debating on whether I should take the leap or just stick with a standard LED television without 3D. What are your experiences? Is it worth it or is it something that's going to die out like HD DVD?

PS3 vs. Xbox 360...which should I get? (non-gamer)

PS3 definitely. I have it setup to play all my content: Hulu, Netflix, NAS drives. One thing I would like though is the ability to play SRT files, which both cannot do at the moment. This is when my Lenovo Q150 with XBMC comes in to play.

Ditching cable TV.

What I did with my setup is I bought a Lenovo IdeaCentre Q150 for around $299 from Amazon (Note: For all the HDMI cables and Digital audio cables I got from PI Manufacturing - http://www.pimfg.com, because it was cheaper). I then installed XBMC - http://www.xbmc.org on the computer. I also...

How to tell if system is clean?

Prior to Windows 7, default install for most operating systems would have the autorun enabled, which caused problems when an infected thumbdrive was plugged in. Most of the time, a good antivirus will remove it, however, there are cases where removing it would cause another variant to just...

Antivirus ?

I don't see a point in having 2. There is an advantage in using detection software such as Prevx to run along with your current antivirus.

Is PrevX 3.0 "good" or "bad" anti-malware?

Prevx is awesome. My friend got a trojan from his trip back from China and NOD32 and Kaspersky could not remove it, but Prevx did. Now I keep it on all my systems as a complement to NOD32.

Super slow internet?

Though highly unlikely, you could try upgrading the firmware and see if that works. What you're really going to have to do is plug it in the router and see if it is still slow.

is Powerline Networking a good solution to wireless

Back then for me, the problem with powerline networking was that for old houses, the power inside the walls may be routed differently. So, for example it may work perfectly upstairs, but when configured downstairs, it ceased to work. Stick with wireless, it's just better overall.

Program to limit time spent on a website?

I think this is your solution http://lifehacker.com/374812/s...online-with-leechblock. It's a simple extension in Firefox. Once installed, you can input sites into the list and limit the time of day in which the site will be blocked.

I should have joined when I was a student. Too late.
