Does anyone have any updates about this? All the 2019 flagships have arrived and there's still no sign of this chip

Anker's well regarded external battery, here: (http://www.amazon.com/20000mAh-Multi..._cd_ql_qh_dp_t) doesn't include a power tip compatible with my Samsung Series 7 laptop (5.5 x 3 mm). Does anyone know where to find standalone laptop tips that can receive Anker's input tip (Anker...

Here's my problem: 1. I have a 64 GB SSD on which I loaded Windows 7 as well as other programs I use frequently and which benefit from the drive's speed (e.g. Premier, etc). 2. I have three other hard drives, two of which are 1 Terabyte and one of which is 500 GB that I use for other programs...

Looking for a light-ish 15" Windows-based performance rig. Doesn't need an SSD, but will probably buy one if it's not included. Attracted to the Envy but the red screen issues have scared me away for now (I've read rumors of a recall or a software patch but the community seems to scoff at...

I have Win 7 Pro installed on a primary SSD drive with a 1 TB storage drive that I plan to use for most other software, documents, and music, et cetera. Is there a mechanism to change the default location for new programs as well as documents, videos, music, et cetera in one fell swoop...

Confused about the following: New system with: OCZ Agility 2 60 GB drive to be used as boot drive. Samsung Spinpoint F3 1 TB drive to be used as data storage. Understand that the OCZ drive needs to be in AHCI mode. The MOBO has 5/6 SATA connectors attached. 1. OCZ Agility 2...

Background caveats and information: 1. This is the third system I've built and I still don't really know what I'm doing. I have never used RAID. 2. I purchased these parts as a general upgrade and primarily because I intend to do some heavy duty HD video editing work. 3. More or less...

What about getting multiple clients connected from the single LAN connection on the MoCA gear? Is that possible?

I'm not sure I understand the MoCA technology completely, though it seems like a great solution. If I have an existing router attached to Coaxial cable, can I then use the MoCA at any existing cable outlet and connect into the network being broadcast by my existing router? That is, I would...

I guess I should have better summarized our connections. We have TW Cable service. In their box attached to the outside of our house, (a picture says a thousand words), what you'd see is three cables entering three splitters. One of the splitters is a two-way splitter and two of the...

The situation: 1. Three story house with cable running into the first, second and third floors (probably split at the entry to the house). 2. Motorola Surfboard Modem connected to a Linksys WRT54GL router on the second floor broadcasting a single wireless network which is more or less...

Conclusion and Action: 1. We moved from Chicago to Raleigh, NC in May. 2. Point #1 is irrelevant except that as it turns out, the state of North Carolina has a sales tax holiday once per year and it runs today through Sunday (tax here is 6.75%) 3. My wife wanted a 15" screen and that...

Buying a Macbook Pro for my wife. She's been a Dell user forever, but wants to "go MAC." She's an academic, and has run some stats packages (e.g. SAS) but now is mostly doing "usual" stuff, i.e. word processing, excel, occasional stats, internet, etc. "Base" 15" MBP is $1999, while the...

Apologies if this is a truly stupid question (in contrast to the oft-quoted "there are no stupid questions," I am a firm believer that there are) . . . How does one go about registering domain names that include "dots" prior to the .suffix. For example, can the domain name...

Thank you for the tip. For some reason, it didn't work initially, but I finally got the thing going and formatted the key. Now I'm as good as new.
