my more reliable i meant that in certain corners of my house i can't get 802.11b. homepna is possibly more secure too. unless you're using a laptop, homepna is just an convenient too. everybody's got a phonline in the room. it doesn't even have to be an active phoneline. but marketing is the...

look at some books for the comptia network+ certification.

why would homepna die? it's cheaper than 802.11b and more reliable and very often faster. it's cleaner than wired ethernet and there's no need to run lines all around your house. the only thing holding it back is limited marketing.

that's another option. what about from windows to windows?

is it possible to burn a cd from a windows machine to a cd-rw connected to a networked linux machine? is all i have to do is map the drive?

is it possible to send a fax from my wireless laptop by accessing the modem of my desktop?

i want to be able to share my server's LAN connection to a cable modem (it's already set up to do this) and also its 56k modem at the same time. how would i go about doing this?

i use my printer mostly for printing up assignments to take to the library or starbucks and for printing out directions through expedia.com. you can't use email for that. when i used to work in tech support some people in the building i worked in printed up their emails. as for floppy i never...

is it possible to share the ati all-in-wonder's tv capabilities with another computer on the network? and hopefully without loss of quality. i know that i wouldn't be able to watch 2 different channels at the same time but that's ok. better yet is it possible to share it over the web so i can...

the most important technologies for next year: serial-ata intel deerfield and amd hammer

This seems like the lost gap between lcd and plasma. it's gotta have at least 1280 x 768 resolution and a dvi connector. the sony wega xbr has dvi-hdtv but i dunno if that's compatible with a computer's dvi out.

an mp3 server isn't exactly mission critical. i can easily back up the mp3s on cd or something. but now that i think about it 80gb seems a lil too much. maybe 2 40gb or 60gb drives will do. another question. can i use nero from another computer with a networked cd-rw placed on the server? and...

it's chinese. chinese writting is very difficult to translate.

yeah how much processing power would a ftp/http server need? how much memory? since it's only for private use it wouldn't have more than 2 people accessing it at the same time. since it's gonna be always on it's gotta be reliable and quiet. thing is i don't want to buy another monitor. is...

i have a few computers and i think i need a cheap always-on mp3/video server. it's becoming difficult to copy everything onto 4 computers. things that it needs... large capacity... like 2 x 80gb hard drives in a raid. a dvd drive a cd-rw ethernet (obviously) capable of acting as an ftp server so...
