Home NAS / Backup Server

I use FreeNAS in a small case, OS on a flash drive. PicoPSU pulls about 20-25 watts at idle. Been in service nearly 3 years, moved twice, no issues. Supports dynamic DNS, webserver, FTP...

Which (under $400) USED Lenovo model to buy for optimal value ?

Concur on the T400 screen resolution recommendation. The lower resolution screen becomes tiresome quickly. T400 < $400 on eBay is doable if you're johnny-on-the-spot.

Garmin Nuvi 760 Questions

I think I had to register mine twice before it "took". Then the website gave me "No Updates Available" for a few months even though the database for businesses was out of date in a lot of cases. Then about a month ago it finally said an update was available which I think was actually a reload of...

Dems use of 12-year old as Absolute Moral Authority against Bush's veto of SCHIP expansion backfires

George Friedman: The United States confronted this question in the past. In the 1850s, some states wanted a radical revision of social, economic and monetary policy that would benefit them but leave other states at an enormous disadvantage. The industrializing part of the country wanted...

Dodd: Iraq Has Left Us More Vulnerable

The problem with what Dodd proposes IMHO, is that our rapid troop withdrawal leaves Iran free to dominate Iraq. Unless Turkey wants to fight Iran, no power in the region can oppose Tehran. Iran and Iraq fought a nasty war and taking Iraq could be seen as just an extension of that conflict by the...

Windows Security Alerts

I get the same message on my machine even though it's running the full McAfee suite...Ditto on my wife's computer running AVG AV, Comodo Firewall, and AVG anti-spyware...I've no idea why Windows says that, the McAfee solution is original installation by Dell, so go figure.
