Hi team,
I need a chat program that can be used over a wifi ad-hoc network on the machines using windows 7. The ad-hoc network will be created by one laptop and the rest of the 30 machines will connect to it. once connected they should all be able to chat with each other or start a group chat. I checked google and found out that microsoft had an inbuilt software on windows vista called windows meeting space but it was discontinued with windows 7. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Impromptu dance parties and spontaneous sing-alongs are favorite activities for many families*, and Memorex’s new line of iPod- and iPhone-compatible audio products make it easy to join in on the fun. Six new audio products are now available that include unique features and functionality that have been designed to appeal to today’s families.
Just downloaded and installed DirectX. Now we get beyond my limited understanding - it appear that DirectX is no longer the default (what? language? program? plugin?) for any video-related operations. Many of my games and screens look (subtly) different and run much more slowly. is it possible to set DirectX as the default for everything video-related?
Both FF 4.0 and IE9 were not showing anything - had to disable hardware acceleration to get them to work properly. VLC was fixed by resetting output module to DirectX, the default (how I changed that I have no idea).
Right now the only thing that does not work properly is Windows Media Center - will play videos in full screen only. Any minimization results in black screen.
My second choice would be Pokemon.
My third would be a non-anime place called Valdemar (it's a country where lots of books by Mercedes Lackey are based).
Fourth would be the land of Dragon Jousters series of books.
I've not been real active here because I've been working on learning more about Ubuntu [Linux] and the terminal. Ya know the command line stuff. I gotta tell you for an old man that did not see a computer in High School the learning curve is pretty steep. If anyone knows a good book on the terminal/command line of Ubuntu or Linux in general I would appreciate it as a suggestion. It needs to be almost a spoon fed type of book 'cause I am terminally challenged
It is nice to be here and making acquaintances and I always get good advice; I recommend this Forum to people but I do not twist arms; if they join great; if not then their loss
Quick shout out to Aron; thx for recent advice on BIOS settings for my new build. I will take pictures to edit and post when I snap it all together in mid-May.
With the recent releases of the first Honeycomb tablet - the Motorola Xoom and Apple's second-gen iPad 2, the tablet computer landscape is finally starting to get interesting. Motorola Xoom has became a powerful rival to iPad 2. In fact, the Motorola Xoom and the Apple iPad are very similar with regard to basic hardware design and functionality. When you break it down, the iPad 2 trounces the Xoom in almost every category. That’s not to say that the Xoom isn’t a really good tablet, but unfortunately the iPad 2 manages to wipe the floor with it in everything from design to performance. That said, the Xoom can still find itself many happy homes with Android enthusiasts. Anyway, let us learn more about them.

Thx; I agree it is weird terminology. I was thinking the first option too because it uses the term "dual Channel". I guess I'll try it and double check that it reads all 16GB of RAM.
Thx Aron, I figured that the software RAID 1 in Linux is the best for my simple mirror; I'm reading up on the mdadm and LVM installations as well as the Virtual Box. Cross fingers for mid May build after 2 years of pinching pennies.
