I started collecting "older" Sun Microsystems workstations a few months back. Just thought I'd share my collection-in-progress with everyone. :]

I need help getting the address/etc. bars in Internet Explorer reorganized, and getting the "autohide" for the task bar turned off. One of our cats ran across her keyboard and she's not sure what keys were hit but it messed up how Internet Explorer looks. It also makes the task bar hide itself whenever you click on the IE window. There aren't ( Read more... )

My Toshiba Satellite (A100, purchased 2006, to be specific) got weird last weekend. I plugged it in to get it good and charged, but when I started it up several hours later the battery was at 4% and I had to stay on AC. After a few hours of use it was at 6%. I left it plugged in but shut down overnight and Sunday morning it was 8%. Then Sunday ( Read more... )

Currently anyone with developer access with Microsoft can go download it, for the rest of us it becomes free to the public on the 5th.

So, I just built a new computer for my mate after his went out, he was due for one (had a P4 2.4GHz, it was getting on in years :P ) and realized that mine really wasn't that great anymore, it's getting on to 3-4 years old actually.

So, I decided to go build (at least a wishlist for) a new comp on NewEgg.I was wondering if anyone might have ( Read more... )

I recently put Noscript into Firefox. It's wonderful, doing all sorts of wonderful things. I've noticed the first problem here though. A few minutes ago, I tried posting an embedded youtbue video in an LJ comment, and was getting an error. Seems Noscript was seeing something bad in the script you paste for embedding youtube videos, and blocking ( Read more... )
