Does anyone know anything about electronics here?

Funny. I don't mean electronics as in MP3 players, TVs, cell phones; I mean electronics as in resistors, circuits, and transistors. Many people know much about the fomer while being totally inept with the latter (myself included).

Does anyone know anything about electronics here?

I need some sort of small in-line device that can take a mic in (either 1/8" or 1/4") and output to 1/8" or RCA. It would also need to run on batteries or the 12V from a car. So basically what it would be like is a box that you plug a microphone into and if you wanted you could plug some...

Help! Anyone know where to buy an OEM wheel for a '98 Grand Cherokee

Looks like ebay's no go. They don't have my wheel and most of them want to sell it in sets of 4. I really need to find out where my local chop shop is. I found it at Kilroy's Auto & Truck Dismantling for $101. I think I'll go over there and check it out. Does anyone have any experience with...

Windows XP keeps setting the time back

Well, it has to be within a few hours of the server's time in order to do that, not several months. Resetting the time's not that hard, I just want to find out what's doing it. And Tarfin, uh.... a lot.

Windows XP keeps setting the time back

Windows XP Pro keeps setting the system time back to March 19, 2002 one hour before the current time. This happens pretty much randomly as far as I can tell, but at least about once a week. It's pretty weird, help would be appreciated.

I've just started messing around with After Effects. The rendered video is fine, but the audio is messed up. When I play it, it's just a bunch of cracks and pops. I was thinking maybe because the video I'm editing has a VBR mp3.

I've been hearing a lot about FXP lately, but I don't know exactly what it is. All I know is it's server -> server instead of server -> client, but what's the real advantage to that? Why do some people think it's better than FTP?
