    Apple Smart Phone 4s

    My home button finally gave out on mine. I've had mine for three years. It was temporarily repaired a few weeks ago and it is acting up again. So time to get a new one. Previous phone was a 3g in '09. Three years between phones is better than most. The last few OS upgrades have been a...

    Testing Serial Port

    There are freeware loopback test programs that can test the serial port. You could also use a null-modem cable (or a regular serial cable with a null-modem adaptor) to connect from the serial port on the current device to another computer's serial port. Then run hyper terminal between the...

    Difference between C, C++ and C#?

    This thread got a little off topic but I think it is important to note that, at the very least, placing in-line comments is extremely important. It will not only save you but it will also helps others when looking back at code written months or years ago. I've been a programmer for more than...

    How much mobile data do you use?

    I have never cared to look at my data usage since I have an unlimited plan; however, I decided to look for this poll. I am at 531.3MB for this billing cycle and I am only on day 24 of 31. I mostly use the Amazon app (spend way too much money on that site...) and work email. I am a bit...

    iPod Touch

    Lets keep jailbreaking out of the conversation. It violates Apple's terms and conditions and voids the warranty (which has been known to come in handy with electronics of this generation...).

    Post Your Desktop "Background screenshot"

    Last year I decided my desktop should reflect my most recent purchase (California is already outlawing most type of magazines you can buy...) Pictures were from www.beretta90two.com

    Media Players

    iTunes is about the only media player that does not freeze on me. WMP, WinAmp, MusicMatch all freeze or go real slow. And I have an iPod so only having to update one list is great. I even have all the genres filled in correctly and smart playlists for each!

    Blocking MAC addresses on xp.

    Close and lock all the doors and windows.... I have a Linksys Router and they have a feature called 'Internet Access Policy'. I believe most have this type of feature. By MAC address, I let only my 3 computers have access to the router. I can also grant access by internal IP address and give...

    Ipod Question

    Apple says that if you do not register your iPod the limited warranty is still available. They say that it is easier for them to find your iPod if you register. When you go to purchase anything from the iTunes Store you will need to create an Apple Account which has nothing to do with the...

    Windows 7 will be named Windows 7

    I do not care. As long as Microsoft does not start using animal names like Cheetah, Jaguar, Panther, Tiger or Leopard... I'd rather they spend more time and money on a stable operating system and worry less about the bells and whistles or their great new name!

    Wow! Check this out!

    Yeah.. Touch screen is NOT a new technology. It has been around for awhile. You walk into a grocery store and there are Kodak photo Kiosks... or even car headunits and navigation systems... even in warehouses touch screens are being used.. I doubt Microsoft Surface will make it off the floor.
