Is there a free Mac app out there for OS-X that would allow me to send small jpeg files to my t-mobil pay as you go cell phone? I know the phone will accept the pics, I've received them before. But I'd like to put a few of my own on for the background screen on the phone. iChat seem

Re: [CGUYS] Dead desktop computer -- what is likely the matter?

Swap out power cords. I have had it happen more than once, the cord somehow becomes oxidized (contacts) and I need to switch out cords with the monitor to get it to boot back up. Also make sure it did not get turned off on the back. Stewart At 09:00 PM 11/17/2009, you wrote: Power supply

Re: [CGUYS] Dead desktop computer -- what is likely the matter?

Power supply more likely than the switch, I think. Make sure the switch on the back of the power supply hasn't been inadvertently turned off. Ellen H. --- On Tue, 11/17/09, Robert Carroll wrote: > From: Robert Carroll > Subject: [CGUYS] Dead desktop computer -- what is likely the matter? > T

[CGUYS] Dead desktop computer -- what is likely the matter?

Got a call from my oldest daughter just now that her HP desktop computer was dead. Worked well yesterday -- no disk noise -- cut off at night, now won't start. What to do? She says that when she presses the "on" button nothing happens -- no light on button, no startup, no noise. However, ca

Tom, you should have looked at this a bit further. The M$ patent is more for a graphical interface used in the M$ utility to adjust user privileges; similar to UNIX's sudo - but M$ cannot patent sudo. Your source is crummy. This was settled on better tech sites yesterday. Thank you, Mark Snyde

[CGUYS] Data Transfer Rates [was Borrowing the "Z" & OS from M$ ...]

The issue of CPU overhead for managing data transfers goes way back. I was arguing the superior transfer rate of SCSI over ATA years ago. Fortunately, I could demonstrate the difference side-by-side in our test configuration. Not everything in tech is as simple as some imagine it. The extra laten

[CGUYS] Suggestions for turntables

We're thinking about purchasing a turntable for digital conversion for some of our records. Ideally, it would have 33, 45 & 78 rpm speeds (we've got some really old records). We've been using Audacity for our reel-to-reel tapes, & it's been fine. Any suggestions? tia. david David Turk Manag

Re: [CGUYS] Borrowing the "Z" & OS from M$ and the design from Apple gets us what?

FWIW, our own experiments with eSata were disappointing. First, few mobos actually supported hot swapping - in fact, none of ours did. We could have lived with that, since our old drive caddys require powering down to swap. However, at random times the drives would suddenly slow down, apparently t
