Nope, not in a rush and I've got my current system to limp along with for a while so I'm content to wait a while to see what comes available. I just know it's going to be hard to hold back once I get that Win7 disc in the mail from MS next month. Vertical space has had me worried and I've...

Some of it is "old habits die hard" but I do find it useful. Hopefully I won't be doing Win7 OS reinstalls as often as I've done WinXP reinstalls over the years but having the apps on their own partition has been useful. Here's how it works out for me at least. I have to do an OS reinstall...

Hi all, first off thank you in advance. Like a lot of people I'm planning to put together a new system in the next couple of months once Win7 hits the shelves. Here's my situation and plan; let me know what you think. - This will be my new main home computer and gaming will be very...

Hi all; thanks in advance. I'm specing a new system and I've got a question. I see that you can buy 2 cards for crossfire (ex: buy 2 HD4850 cards) or you can buy cards that have 2 built in (ex: HD4850x2). Someone please enlighten me as to why a person would either buy one option or the...

I didn't make myself clear before and I may have used a bad turn of phrase. When I said that I was going to "kick the tires" a bit I did not mean to imply that I was going to "play" with it. I'm not an IT person by trade but I think I'm more knowledgeable than the average user. I've got...

Actually the answer is pretty simple; the users must run windows applications and there is no getting around that. I'll lock the laptops down as much as possible and keep them patched which should hopefully keep them exploit free. My goal here is to set up a good base working environment...

Does "remote workplace" work like a VPN? The users will take their laptops home with them so it won't be like they're logging into their work computer since the laptops are their work computers. They need to be able to log in such that their "home" experience is no different than their "at...

Thanks RM. I am tempted by the idea of running MS-SBS but to be perfectly honest I have this fear of walking into work one Monday morning only to find out that our server and data is toast because of the latest greatest MS exploit. I know that no OS is perfect but I want to stay away from...

Hi all; first off thanks for taking the time to read this and help me out. I'll try to keep this short. I am a computer coder but in a few months I will most likely be in the position of setting up a new small business. I will be in charge of all IT decisions including purchasing. This will...

morning bump to see if there are any more possible solutions to my problem

riggs581, Thanks for the advice. I don't have any vasaline at the moment but I'll pick some up tomorrow and give it a try. At this point I'm willing to give anything a try but I'm at a loss to see how using vasaline would help. The anti-glare coating has a bit of a tint to it such that...

I just got a nice P260 monitor but because of the way it was shipped there are two areas on the screen where the anti-glare/tinted coating has been rubbed off. I'm trying to get the seller to credit/refund me but I don't know how it's going to work out. The anti-glare/tinted screen coating...

bump... is this going to work? did I do this right?

Thanks, that's what I figured. What does everyone think of this solution? I've created a zoneedit account for this domain and setup a simple webforward for site2.com and www.site2.com to go to the correct hostmachine/subdirectory and I cloaked it. I've edited my nameserver listing at the...
