Logically, except that it is irrational, there was a point between 9:26:53 and
9:26:54 that was as close to precisely Pi as possible.

Re: [H] Small box to drive projector
That is one I looked at before. Looks like I would need memory, storage, possibly an HDMI to VGA converter. Then there is the question of remote control software. I guess I could just go with Windows and RDP (What level of Windows 7, 8.1, 10) does RDP?

Re: [H] The SSD and how Windows can make your life miserable
My laptop drive was giving me signs of eminent failure. I has a local guy install a SAMSUG SSD and clone to it. It worked, but I wasn't happy with all the results. The next weekend, I did a fresh install Win-7 Ultimate, Office 2010, etc. Cycling through all the updates and getting the drivers up to date took a while, but no real problems. It is much faster on boot and the quiet is scary :) -Original Message- From: hardware-boun...@lists.hardwaregroup.com [mailto:hardware-boun...@lists.hardwaregroup.com] On Behalf Of Steve Tomporowski Sent: Friday, May 17, 2013 5:48 PM To: hardw...@lists.hardwaregroup.com Subject: [H] The SSD and how Windows can make your life miserable Last weekend I cloned my main drive over to an SSD and then booted. Some things looked faster, but I wasn't blown away by the speed. I have found out why. It began on Patch Tuesday. 4 of 6 patches failed. Windows update threw some errors, but as I had a design review coming up at work, I was too buys obsessing about that to work on it. Today, a day off! I decided to look into the errors. Ran update again, same problems. Searching on the errors, it seemed to indicate that Update has a problem when you move stuff from C: somewhere else, like when you install an SSD. The only thing I really fudged with there is that I moved the Temp and Tmp folders. I moved them back, same problem. I wondered if I didn't do something else and forgot about it. Back to System and Advanced Settings. This time I looked a the lower half of the window. Half of my windows variables were pointing to my old boot drive which is now E: ! When I booted to the SSD the first time, I kept the old boot drive in the system, just changed the boot order in the BIOS. Wrong! Windows apparently got confused and I ended up with a mishmash. My %systemroot% was now E instead of C! Just a word of caution. Going to clone the drive again (it wouldn't boot properly on it's own) and this time remove the old drive. Well, that's how ya learn Steve
