You can even install a number of Linuxes on the same hard drive. I would highly recommend this. Besides your Windows partition(s) you can make let's say 5 Linux partitions (4 different system partitions and 1 Home partition) and one Linux Swap partition. If you do so, you can install and test several different Linux Distros, save your data on the Home partition and let all Linuxes use the same Swap partition. Except for the bootloader, Windows will be kept untouched. Anyway, whatever you do ... hav a lot of fun!

Do you mean you're looking for a chinese hoster? Or do you mean chinese language support? As far as I know the chinese language support only depends on the installed fonts of the users machine. I can't watch chinese websites correctly if I don't have the fonts installed on my system.

Well, let's hope that we will all be able to remember our own names in twenty years! Otherwise we would be getting an email by some fool we don't even know talking silly stuff.

May be nice, but the site does not work without flash, so they should try to do the same thing without flash for the flash-haters ans the old-browser-users.

Well, me ... I can see absolutely NO reason why I should make my beautiful Windows look like Mac. I f I would like the look of Mac OS I would buy a Macintosh machine, but I don't so I don't. I wonder it there are Mac users wanting to make their desktop look like a Windows desktop.

PPLive is a little filesharing client program which allows you to watch chinese soccer broadcasting streams! Some chinese TV stations are broadcasting several european soccer matches through internet live streams, like Champions League, UEFA Cup, Bundesliga, Premier League, Seria A, Primera Division but also scottish League and others. Try it out, it's really good if you have a fast internet connection. Watching soccer can be so much cheaper than in Pay-TV.

Do you mean XPLite perhaps? You can get it here:

I once used 98Lite, which gave the user the oppurtunity to remove Internet Explorer and many other stuff from Windows. I have not heard of a special 'hacker's' edition of Windows XP.

No, I've not yet tried any of these new search bars, the Windows search function is enough for me. Maybe search bars are fatser an better, but I don't trust this kind of software. I don't want my computer to be searched by Google.

Floodwaves, Volcanos and Earthquakes are responses of Mother Earth. The planet replies to the virus mankind.

I have no idea of the inside life of a processor, Hyperthreading an all this stuff. My decision to choose Intel is only an emotional decision. I really hate AMD's way of 'lying' in their product names. An AMD 2400 does not run on 2400 MhZ, so this name is given only to put sand in the consumer's eyes. Even if 100 MhZ would cost half the price of a 100 MhZ Intel processor, I would alway choose Intel because they don't lie in that way.

How do you think people get banned from these forums, it is not by their user name necessarily but the IP.

But what if I have a new IP every time I visit the forum? Me for example, I get a dynamic IP adress assigend by my provider everytime I enter the interent. I think I can't be banned by a forum administrator except if he tries to ban ALL IP adresses coming from a certain IP range.

Hi,

I'm not exactly sure whether I really understand the problem, but I hope I do. Are 'other people' the people inside your home network or peolpe in the outside internet? Anyway, if you don't know your own IP-adress, you have to find it out. :-) For example you can upload a "test.php" to any webserver and add it to your favorites with this content:

<?php$test=getenv("REMOTE_ADDR");echo $test;?>

If you do so, it will tell you your 'extern' IP-adress, for example click HERE

I'm sure you can find your IP-adress somewhere in your router's web-interface too! Some routers need extra configuration for Portforwarding, so that your localhost can be viewed by the outside surfer through your IP adress.

Hazeshow, yes, you can easily go up to 4 screens, no probs, with either 3-4 cards with single outputs, or two cards with two outputs each. There are limits to scaling up however. The current Windows consumer OS, XP, can handle up to 10 screens (http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/display_multi_monitors_overview.mspx), though you can use some custom drivers to trick windows around this by making it think 4 screens are actually just one (I think it's a software only solution but it might have some FPGA box in there too .. sorry I've forgotten, saw it last year, and I'm sure you can find it on Google by searching for multi-head (it was a small company dedicated to this area).

Hi Kam,

 

Thanks a lot for your posting! Unfortunately all the graphic adapters I own are AGP slot, otherwise I would really like to try out to have three screens. Now I know why PCI graphic cards on ebay are more expensive than AGP cards. I think you're right, noone here needs 10 displays, three monitors would really be enough, who has a table with enough space for 10 screens? But I can imagine that the possibility of running ten (or even 40 with that driver trick) screens could be interesting for artists, video installations in galleries and so on.

... like the experienced web surfer knows that Firefox is way better that IE !

No no no ... ... this is arrogance, nothing else. I AM an experienced webuser, and I KNOW that Internet Explorer is the best browser in the universe. What now? Do you consider this an argument? I guess not. What I'm trying to say is this: Please don't think that all IE users are stupid or unexperienced!
Most of the IE users simply use their IE and keep their mouth shut about that topic. But the Firefoxers never get tired of telling everybody how good and safe their browser is and how bad and evil Internet Explorer is. I wonder WHY??? Can someone explain?

A Mercedes owner KNOWS that his car is the best, and a Ferrari owner also KNOWS that his car is the best. But they both spent their time in enjoying RIDING the car and not in talking which car is better than the other and how stupid the other car is.

Maybe there should be some organization which gives away "approved spyware-free-Freeware"-stamps, so that users can be sure of a certain software quality if they see this stamp.Well, from another point of view, every worm and every virus is freeware too! It's just a matter of taste if you like the software you've got. No matter if useful program or spyware or virus, as long as a software is free, it's Freeware.

If you could live with a german interface I would recommend http://www.funpic.de/ . They offer 100 MB webspace with PHP and MySQL. Traffic is inclusive and there are no forced ads! Like Xisto they have a forum, but you don't have to post there, only for extras like own 404's and more FTP/MySQL accounts.

So I think it goes something like this:

 

<?php

 

$test=getenv("REMOTE_ADDR");

 

echo $test;

?>

 

Try it out.

In the virtual memory size settings you also have the option to put a user defined minimum and maximum size. Some people say that it speeds up Windows if you set these two to the same size! If the size of the virtual memory is constant, Windows doesn't need to always change the size of the pagefile.sys-file.If you have enough RAM, like 2 GB for example, I guess you can turn off the virtual memory. This then also would speed up your system I think. GreetingZ

In other words: Microsoft clears up our minds and enlightens us. They are the ones who finally make us understand that our PC's are much too old and that we need new ones!

Optimizing the keywords and the sourcecode and trying to make other webmasters link to your site. OR simply buying some Google 'Sponsored Links'. OR buying so many Google shares that you own the majority of the shares, and so deciding who gets the first positions yourself.

Simply make a screenshot, (Printscreen key on your keyboard - paste into some graphic program), cut of the edges and save as .jpg, .png or.gif.

Yes you're right, voltage usage is fantastically low! And it's virus resistant too. But it's very uncomfortable to zip paper. Well it's easy to zip, but after unzipping it doesn't look the same anymore. And ... when I try to minimize in the taskbar or maximize to the whole desktopt, it usually does not work. It simply keeps it's size. That's no good. Did you ever try out the Paper Mass Storage Solution called 'book'? GreetingZ

What do you mean with "most comman"? The most spread programming language? Like english and spanish are widely-spread languages among the spoken languages in the world?If any programmer here should help you, it might be useful to give a little hint which languages are the options and what kind of project you have to do.GreetingZ

Yes that's right, but fortunately you can turn the Xp layout off and switch back to the 'classic' 98/2000 interface. Well wasted RAM and CPU is one thing, that kind of BLUE is another! I can't stand it, it really hurts my eyes.
