None of these are great, but they're the best I've found in Manhattan: J&R - downtown across from City Hall Park DataVision - corner of 40th and 5th PC Mania - North side of West 14th just west off 6th Ave. The Marketpro computer shows all over NJ and NY on weekends have things you won't find...

Check out vcdhelp.com for excellent user reviews of just about every major capture card/device out there. I have the Hauppauge WinTV PVR-250 and am pretty satisfied with it. In this price range you are obviously not going to get the quality of something like the new Matrox RT.X100, but there...

Me: Helpdesk, this is Steve. Secretary: I can't get my PC to turn off right. It always comes right back on the same page. It doesn't warm up or anything. It doesn't ask me for my password. Me (after a few questions that establish nothing -- I am totally bewildered): Chris, what kind of PC...

When you save the file the first time, put the filename in quotation marks, like this: "homepage.htm" The filename will save exactly as quoted without adding the application extension on the end, e.g., without putting .txt on the end of a notepad file. (This works in most Windows...
