Thanks Earthling. Anybody else want a shot at this? Is this a common problem or is it just me?

Hot!!! Free Land in Kansas!

I appraise real estate in KC and the surrounding areas, and this is a really hot deal. Land prices are going up fast just about everywhere. Kansas really is a nice place to live too, but there is not much to do. I am pretty sure broadband is available in most towns as long as it is in the...

Slow file viewing over network in XP

Hey Earthling, thanks for the help, but nothing has worked yet. This sucks, I need to access those pictures for my job and it is really slowing me down. I upgrade computers and my performance gets worse. Does XP have a problem networking with 98? The win98 machines fly around the network no...

Slow file viewing over network in XP

I am trying to view the contents of a file with about 4 gigs of pictures over a network. My computer has XP on it and the computer with the pictures on it is a win98 system. It takes several minutes to load the file to view it. All of the other computers on the network can view the file in an...

Tablet pc's

Just upgraded my Compaq tablet to 512 meg of ram, still pretty slow, but I look at it as the trade off for battery life. I am also about to have Compaq send me my third stylus, the other two have different problems that make them semi unusable. I am having some problems with stability and...

Nextel: $10 phone, free incoming minutes and 5000 FF miles, but is Nextel any good?

By far the best service I have ever used. I have the i90, which works perfectly. The problem with Nextel is that their phones are a little larger than others, but they are much tougher. I have dropped fewer calls in the +/- 6 months I have owned the phone than I did in a day with Sprint, and...

I have this camera and use it everyday for work for the past seven months. No problems to speak of. Haven't run into any problems with the lack of a lens cover. The pictures are pretty good quality. The lack of an optical zoom kind of sucks, but what do you expect at this price. The digital...

Epox 8K7A+ and hard drive failures.

I have the RAID set up to mirror with two IBM 60GXP 40G HDs. We use this computer as a server for our small office with all of our critical data on it. I have been reading about the failure rate of these drives and it has me kind of worried. They are mirrored, so I guess I am protected...

Tell me your Sprint PCS horror story

No, I do not work underground. I am really surprised at everybody who actually likes the service they get from Sprint. I can honestly say that I have not talked to a single person here is KC that is happy with them. So many dropped calls. In the month or so that I have had Nextel, I have...

Tell me your Sprint PCS horror story

You guys must not live in Kansas City, the home of Sprint. Probably due to a lack of competition here, the service is horrible. AT&T just started in KC with a $49.95 unlimited local calling plan, so I expect the service will start to get better so they can compete. Until then I will continue...

University of Texas fans, dont bother watching Saturdays game. The horns are going down!

Yes! Go Buffs! Then all we will need is a Florida loss, followed by an Oregon State win, then a miracle in Blacksburg, then maybe Tennessee's bus will get a flat tire or some of their old friends will come in from out of town, THEN WE ARE IN! MMM, now what to do about that defense? GO HUSKERS!

What are my wireless network options? I need to send a signal about a half mile.

What exactly are my options? I don't have a line of sight between the two buildings. It seems that all of the wireless solutions that I know of are either too expensive or their range is too short. Anybody know of a solution?

Anyone buy a car from ebay

I got a great deal in January on a '92 VW Jetta. It was in town so I figured I buy it, go look at it, and if the car wasn't the way the guy represented it, I wouldn't buy. Turns out the car was better than the guy thought. I waxed it, cleaned it up, changed the water pump, and sold it...
