1 = 0.99... (RossGr)

Let x = 0.99999... It can be proved easily that: for all E > 0: 1 - E < x < 1 + E The rest of the proof is by contradiction. Suppose x!=1. (x does not equal 1) From the axioms of an ordered ring and the fact (1/2) exists in R, one can prove: x < (1/2)(1 + x) < 1 Now, if we let E = 1 - (1/2)(1...

Dell TrueMobile mini vs. PCMCIA

The range you achieve with a mini-PCI card depends on the antennas built into the laptop. These are usually larger and positioned more optimally than in PC cards.

What is the best flat CRT monitor out there?

The general consensus is that Mitsusbishi DiamondPro monitors are definitely some of the best around. Sony's F and G series FD Trinitrons are also very good.

i600m only gives 150 minutes of battery life

Build quality in Dell's Latitude range is excellent, and certainly improving in the Inspiron range too.

Hey dude, you're getting a Dell! :D Still, it's hard to find something that beats them in price/performance, and you certainly got a good deal there. Hope it all goes well for ya!

Laptop options opinions needed

That looks like quite a powerful system, at a very good price too! Is that a 64MB Mobility Radeon 7500 on the spec list? Can't be a bad thing I guess ;) Best of luck with your purchase!

Laptop options opinions needed

Hi Bill! Your best compromise would depend mostly on your priorities. 16MB of memory on the graphics card would be sufficient for 2D work, especially if the laptop's screen resolution is XGA (1024*768); but if you venture into any kind of 3D application/game at all, 16MB will be a significant...

Router plus a Switch??

The throughput rate specified would typically be for WAN-LAN/LAN-WAN. All transfers on the LAN side only would be through the switch ASIC in the router, and should be near 100Mbps under optimal conditions (good TCP/IP RWIN settings, etc). If you connect a switch to a LAN port on the router...

Any articles on the new 7200RPM notebook drives?

Indeed, the rotational latency figure of 4.2ms from the spec you linked would indeed indicate 7.2k RPM.

More Nvidia cheating ? 3Dmark2001 now!

And which video card did I have before the 9800 Pro? A GF4. Before that? A GF2U. I've owned far more nVidia cards than ATI cards, simply based on my criteria for purchase - to buy the better performing product. ATI satisfied that criteria with the R9800 Pro, do you not think? Yet, you appear to...

More Nvidia cheating ? 3Dmark2001 now!

This whole situation is really said :(. The fact that they've been doing this long ago with 3D Mark 2k1 as well... makes me sick. I'm really disappointed in NVidia. I really am. I thought better of them. The more we scrutinize their drivers, the deeper this hole goes, it seems. I just hope...

There's a tutorial HERE how to replace an existing mini-PCI WiFi card in a Compaq Tablet PC with an 802.11g card ripped from a Linksys wireless router/AP. I'm not sure if Toshiba offers the BCM94306 802.11g platform for the M1 as a factory option, but if it does, of course that would be easier...

edonkey networking problem

Do you use a broadband router/NAT gateway to share your internet connection to multiple PCs? If so, you need to set your NAT gateway to forward those ports to your PC's internal LAN IP address so that people can access those ports WAN-LAN. If you do not use an NAT gateway, it may well be your...

June Centrino

Intel's Pro/Wireless solutions that make up the 3-piece Centrino(tm) isn't very special at all. They will release an 802.11a compatible solution later this year, and you'll have to wait a long while until 2004 for the 802.11g solution. There are better options available now. Broadcom mini-PCI...

Well, 1.7GHz Pentium-M was released in the first days of this month. They should be showing up in OEMs soon, along with the associated price cuts for the lesser speeds.
