    Question Firmware updates for Mushkin Pilot NVMe?

    I'm having trouble determining if there is a firmware upgrade for the Mushkin Pilot 1TB NVMe SSD (http://www.poweredbymushkin.com/Home/index.php/catalog/solid-state-drives/pilot/item/1372-pilot-1tb-mknssdpl1tb-d8) Their site is a bit of a mess. It's a nice SSD but I've been getting weird...

    Question USB-C or not for 27" 4k monitor?

    The idea is future-proofing. I don't expect I'll buy another one for many years. Am I thinking too hard about it? And yeah, the premium on them is pretty crazy right now!

    Question USB-C or not for 27" 4k monitor?

    Thanks for the rec. I wish I could go that big. My desk (which I also can't make bigger because of room constraints) won't fit such a big monitor.

    Question USB-C or not for 27" 4k monitor?

    My 24" 1080p monitor is badly in need of an upgrade. I'm ready to upgrade to a 27" 4k display. USB-C seems like it could future-proof it for a while (I buy new monitors very rarely -- I've had all of two over the last maybe 17 years?). Worth the trouble of finding one? Thanks, and generally...

    Swapping in international keyboard on US Surface Pro?

    For my retired dad who travels back and forth to Europe and still writes scholarly articles in multiple languages, the US version of the MS Surface Pro with an extra Spanish (yay Spain) keyboard seems almost too good to be true. The key (no pun intended) being that a Spanish keyboard makes...

    Wife going overseas, help me call her for free (or cheap) using our smartphones

    Given the URL I have to wonder if it will work with the Storm2. Site's down anyway, but I'll check again later. While on the topic of WiFi, why does it work so poorly with BB?

    Wife going overseas, help me call her for free (or cheap) using our smartphones

    Interesting! From this: It looks like *maybe* she at least call *us*, which is good enough. Will investigate further!

    Wife going overseas, help me call her for free (or cheap) using our smartphones

    Well, there goes Google Voice. My phone sometimes thinks it's outside of the US (I'm guessing something to do with the "world phone" nature of it) so I sometimes can't start Skype even while physically in the US. As it happens when I tried to install Google Voice, I received a message saying...

    Heh, did not know that. Walkie-talkie-esque, I suppose but a decent backup.

    Nope, not for another year, but it this sort of issue may push us in the warm embrace of Android.

    Sure, fire away with suggestions. I don't know about apps that allow voice. Fring? I'll give it a look. What about Google Voice? How's that on the Blackberry?

    Wife going overseas, help me call her for free (or cheap) using our smartphones

    We both have Blackberry Storm2 phones that we've used overseas on Verizon's international data plan to BBM, use Google Maps, etc. What doesn't work (at least in the country to which she is traveling) is Skype Mobile, so Skype-to-Skype is out of of the question. Trying to even start the Skype...

    A cyclist ran into my car

    My perceptions are probably skewed by a daily bike commute of 25-28 miles round-trip in NYC (mostly in Manhattan, no less) but I have to blame the cyclist in the OP. That situation is quite common and not difficult to navigate. Either the driver will cut you off or not, be ready for both.

    Video card for Inspiron 530S? Half-height?

    AT delivers yet again, thanks! A little more digging also shows, for example, a rare card that will occupy a second low-pro slot to expose all three outputs (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814121310). Lots to choose from with this good info in hand. Thanks again.
