AV sez, “This week, Microsoft started requiring users to verifiy their serial number before using Windows Update. This effort to force users to either buy XP or tell them where you got the illegal copy is called ‘Genuine Advantage.’ It was cracked within 24 hours.” Before pressing ‘Custom’ or ‘Express’ buttons paste this [...]
I love this thing. I am in the process of converting my Hi8 tapes onto DVD and the Sony DVDirect makes it so easy. The neatest part is that is senses when there isnt a signal and it pauses the recording.
That is cool. I dont have to watch the videos or wait for it to [...]
I am giving Super DVD Ripper a chance from DVD to DIVX. This simple software works great!.
I was able to copy a DVD I personally made with my sony DVD creator to MPG in one easy step. Man what a chore this was with other software.
The choices are even better. I can take DVD [...]
I currently use an LS443 from Kodak. It is a 4MP camera with 3 times zoom. When I upgraded to the SC-D6550 from samsung I realized some of the things I didnt like about the Kodak LS 443.
First I liked the docking station. There is a reason that the easy share system from Kodak is [...]
It was released last month and I have finally picked one up. The Samsung DuoCam SC-D6550here.
So far I think I like it. I cannot stream from the DV tape to my computer using USB so I am also going to pick up the sony dvd recorder. This way I can consolidate all of the tapes [...]
I cant seem to figure out why when I go to install certain MSI packages on W2K via remote desktop I am not allowed. It is rather annoying.
Certain portions of our application are .NET components that are installed as part of an MSI package. The process is to uninstall the old package via remove programs, [...]

Today I went to download the Steve Ballmer video from Channel 9. I right clicked on save video and chose a name and my desktop from the links on the left. When the download completed I was prompted to “Open”, “Open Folder” or “Close”. I wanted to open the folder. I don’t know why really [...]
The company I am working for has an opening for a Network Admin wanna be. Desktop support, running cables, doing backup but you must have the desire to be more. We can smell it.
Email me if you are interested and a present or former DeVry student.
I am not teaching this 8 weeks at DeVry. Adjuncts [...]
Ryan Herrmann thinks it is really funny that I was “published” at http://www.4guysfromrolla.com/webtech/120699-1.shtml
I thought it was cool they posted my code back at the time and I was probably a little too proud of it. I had it printed out, I gave copies to my family etc. But whatever. Ryan Herrmann of Kansas City hasnt [...]
Kristin was golfing today and when we arrived we decided to start (and ended up staying at) the chipping green. I need chipping practice and she doesnt hit it that far… so I thought.
We started with her new wedge from US kids golf. She took a little time to adjust to the new shoter length [...]
