  1. Is there a Fn + Function key to toggle the trackpad on and off?
  2. You could also try the IKEA cable tray - IKEA | Desktop solutions | GALANT system | SIGNUM | Cable trunking horizontal http://www.ikea.com/PIAimages/31243_PE092516_S3.jpg
  3. The way we plan on doing this is to have the SSL cert at our reverse proxy, running on 443, handling sub.domain.net. Directories of this subdomain will then be proxied to both Easylink and the other site. https://sub.domain.net/easylink -> internally: RM server running Easylink https://sub.domain.net/otherthing -> internally: web server In theory, it should work.
  4. It's not really DHCP's job to do that
  5. I see two ways of having multiple PXE options on the same network. Either A) switch the PXE boot image option (at the DHCP server) between CC4 and FOG as and when required. Might be scriptable? Or B) Find a PXE menu capable of running on the existing setup, which will allow you to choose what to run at PXE boot. Most online material for PXE menus seem to be focused on Linux, but you may be lucky - I don't know if that makes a difference. See here: http://www.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Am_I_able_to_modify_the_PXE_menu_to_run_other_applications%3F. May be possible to add CC4's build boot image in there.
  6. PXE builds on CC4 are entirely optional.
  7. Meeting on Friday evening for some work, Saturday nothing, and on Sunday I spent the afternoon in Newcastle with some photography friends.
  8. Digital Cameras: Digital Photography Review, News, Reviews, Forums, FAQ Also consider Micro Four-Third format cameras - they have interchangeable lenses too like SLRs, but are similar in size to compacts.
  9. After an unfortunate scolding incident involving a student running into a member of staff with a cup of hot black coffee, everyone was advised that hot drinks should be carried in containers with lids. It lasted around 6-12 moths, back to normal now

    Our school run the scheme, with one senior teacher mainly in charge of it. We personally have nothing to do with it apart from helping run the SIMS report for new students every year for the new intake.
  11. I think they'd make a nice modern art piece, actually. All you need is some sticky googley eyes and a permanent marker
  12. I've just the place... http://www.malbay.co.uk/images/skip.jpg
  13. It's a great feature. A friend has an iPhone on Orange, and they've had lots of problems lately with network connectivity. While we were out at the weekend I enabled my Android hotspot so they could use the Internet
  14. If new versions of Windows were released every six months would you expect to see major new features introduced with each and every version?
  15. More useful than Google Wave though
  16. Someone I work closely with is SWEATED EVIL.
  17. If I omit my middle initial, I get a much better result: A ROWDY CIGAR.
  18. I don't like it. "Air Gay Coward"

    It's a great tool - I've been using it for a while for friend's computers and standalone staff laptops. Saves a lot of time.
  20. CapEnd: Often, certain information is only made available to certain parties. You may think one such piece of information is "common knowledge" within your domain, so you feel safe in passing that on (even anonymously); but in reality only you and perhaps a select handful of others are aware. It won't take much for them to find out "who dunnit". And as Dos_Box mentions - logs.
  21. AyatollahPies: Not stupid and unfair. More like easier, quicker, and less complex. If the Govt did what what Dos_Box mentioned about knowing all joint incomes - how difficult would that be for them to set up, get right, and implement it? And that's before they start using the data for the child benefit situation. I think they're doing the best they can using existing data, and it is fair. I agree with Dos_Box - if you're earning £44k+ you shouldn't need handouts from taxpayers, most of whom earn a lot less!
  22. Interesting article - Linux in Schools: Linux in Schools : Greg Laden's Blog
  23. Sirbendy: At least you can do more with those
  24. It's 13MB once installed, has no option to move to SD card, and doesn't have a "close" feature. Apart from that it works fine
  25. So are there 2 elsiegee40s or 2 witchs?
