  1. I have a similar laptop.I'd try to shift RAM up to 1GB if you want a good gaming performance.Mine has Radeon Xpress200M, wich is less powerful than that nVidia one, eventhough I can play many games fluently.That processor will usually work on 800MHz for energy saving, it will automatically switch to 1,6 or 2.0 GHz depending on it's needs. When gaming it may be at 2.0GHz full time, so you should be plugged to AC if you want to play for more than 30 minutes hehehe
  2. VNC is a Remote Desktop Server/Client to get virtual access to a remote computer.
  3. I used to have a dot.tk, but now it's a bit anoying with so much ads... personally I think that a domain name isn't too expensive, maybe around $20 a year...
  4. I think the best option is to try out some models and keep the one with the best performance... the interface doesn't really matter unless your computer uses USB 1.1 in stead of USB 2.0...
  5. Control Panel is working on port TCP 2083, so your firewall may block it. (Normal web pages work on port TCP 80).Anyway if you are trying to access from an university or an office, there can be a proxy that blocks it, so you won't be able to access anyway.
  6. The eyes and teeth you drew are a bit too big, I don't know if she really looks like that, but I don't find it feminin, you should check the proportios of the picture before including more details.
  7. I don't think this is about human curiosity... The aim of this project is to find better numerical algorithms and to find where the limits of computer calculus is. Maybe this problem has no direct or tangible objective, but it's a simple problem that makes cientists innovate and investigate to find tools to make easyer other tasks.
  8. I don't know it for sure, but I think that the <embed/> tag is not valid in any xhtml. EDIT: Actualy, take a look to the results of your code al the W3C Validator: <?xml version="1.0"?><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ xmlns="http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/; xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <title>Test</title> </head> <body><p><object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0" width="794" height="128" title="Geek From the Forest"> <param name="movie" value="/flash/logo/logo.swf" /> <param name="quality" value="high" /> <embed src="/flash/logo/logo.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/special/errorpages/404.html; type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="794" height="128"></embed></object></p></body></html> Input that here: http://validator.w3.org/ There you can see where errors occur.
  9. I automatically updated it yesterday on my other PC. When I saw this I wanted to know if this PC was already updated, so I clicked "Help" menu to see the "About" info and in the drop down menu it already said it was updating right now hehehehe, a little coincidence
  10. Visual Basic is "event oriented", it should work every time you want using the code before. Maybe you don't finish the event handler correctly so it cannot start another event.
  11. You can also use Megaupload, they allow files up to 500MB and they have a very good bandwidth.The only problem is that when you want to download it you have to wait for a minute and then the download starts.
  12. Excellent explanation Cheeso.Of course everything around people affects their behaviour, as spanish philosopher Ortega y Gasset said: "I am myself and my circumstances".Anyway everyone has his own criteria to differ between good and evil, and act in concordance. That's why they set a minimal age to play cercain games. It's not just to avoid kids who are not intellectually ready to understand that it's a game, not real life, to play that game. Of course it's an aproaxal, intellect cannot be mesured by age, but that's where parent have to do their job and if they think that game isn't appropiate for their son, don't buy it.PD: Sorry for my english :S
  13. Under Windows: NotepadFor *nix systems: Vim:P CSS + xHTML rulez!!!!
  14. Maybe for a good stability you should use Ubuntu. I realy like that distro, It has changed the concept of many people about Linux.It has a very good support and it's got very easy interfaces for almost any task you should do.Anyway if you are a more experienced user you may like fedora or gentoo.
  15. I don't like skype, anyway, when I use it is just for making calls. I don't keep it on to receive calls.Anyway it's a bit stupid to prompt the user to download a file wich is not trusted... I shouldn't be a problem for experienced users.
  16. Looks nice. I'm a photoshop user from 3 years ago and I think that it's a very good program, almost neccesary for Windows systems.It could be nice to try out that new features, but I haven't realy tried out all the Photoshop CS2 potencial
  17. I agree with XIII, microsoft will never admit this kind of security issues if they can. Anyway they may be working harder in security for Windows Vista.In some way Windows has so many security leaks becouse there are many people trying to find them out. If nobody tryes to find bugs they will never be known...
  18. I supose that vista can disable some features so it can run in a "minimal recommended machine" but anyway every simple PC with Vista running on it that I've seen was using at least 700MB of RAM. On a presentation of Vista they were running it on an Athlon64 x2 3600+ w/1GB RAM and it worked fine.... but thats not the recommended PC at all!!
  19. [off topic]ehmmmmm... nice spam... [/off topic]Semiconductor memories are in constant evolution, new materials and structures are developed every day to make aour lives easier :PSo this new is not realy relevant from my point of view. Anyway it's nice to see that many people are interested on this.
  20. FileZilla rules!It's free, it's simple, it's faster than any other... what else do you need
  21. Thanks for the tips sid.calcutta, .htaccess is really important for webmasters. Niru, i'll check out that google app, it looks nice
  22. I think that Google is powerful because people like their products. People like their products because they are good.I don't think they abuse of power, at least not YET. hehehehe
  23. I didn't know that phpmailer didn't need an SMTP server running... that's interesting thanks for the info!!
  24. I also prefer PDF to send documents to my colleges, anyway DOCs are quite handy...They should fix this problem as fast as possible.
