  1. You could sysprep the box to make it re-check the hardware or try deleting the x4 cpu from device manager then killing the extra core and rebooting. It may be confused if it is getting the same hardware ID but different specs. Windows usually handles a processor switch without a hassel.
  2. Is it using a webserver to save to? -> "http://" from above path If so maybe something to do with WebDAV but that is a strange path for a local site.
  3. Hmm, could have done with being thinner, it'll never get a modeling contract. :-P The teardown should be interesting.
  4. Going off topic again, I've had two and the replacement has been worse than the first, the new one glitches out the screen while web browsing. Both have slowed and choked out slowly after 4.2, taking ten seconds or so on occasion to display any icons on the home screen, randomly killing applications without cause, charging slower than power usage (not always but sometimes). Battery life of 4 hours with the screen off and no apps running... I'm just going to keep returning them till I get one that actually works as some people claim they can, I have yet to see one manage it though.
  5. To be fair Android 4.2 on the Nexus 7 should really be called Android ME given the state of it, if you do get a Nexus 7 DO NOT upgrade it to 4.2, it is a bit lacklustre with 4.1 but at least it basically works.

    Oh, that looks like my Nexus 7 which I replaced and got one that glitches the screen with weird lines when using a browser as well as being slow and crashy like the last one, I don't know how it became so popular. Angry Birds must be VERY addictive.
  7. Personal opinion, SetACL is easier to use.

    Yea, that is without student photos or anything, the main file size killers are all the VB exe files and ancient DLL libraries, the system files install still choke out on 64bit systems because it tries to register a 16bit graphics library. The DB sizes expand rapidly when you have a hundred users all accessing the MDB over the network. It even has a well known back door password in their online documentation. Still it doesn't crash when you type File:/// into it so it's not all bad

    What's sad is that while this is an old joke but still would not work on our SMS, not because they sanitise their inputs but because the whole 3GB monster is based on three loosely linked Access 2003 databases. Now that's a joke

    It's no where near as bad as the; doesn't bother checking passwords bug or, the stores your passwords in plaintext debug logs bugs. Those took some time to be patched, I can't imagine this one taking a higher priority, still a fun game for any Apple store patrons until then

    Apparently it only works in a text input field where it can be parsed by an osx system library and only with the capitalised version.

    Typing These 8 Characters Will Crash Almost Any App On Your Mountain Lion Mac - Slashdot All software has bugs, but this one is a particularly odd one. If you type "File:///" (no quotes) into almost any app on your Mac, it will crash. The discovery was made recently and a bug report was posted to Open Radar. First off, it’s worth noting that the bug only appears to be present in OS X Mountain Lion and is not reproducible in Lion or Snow Leopard. That’s not exactly good news given that this is the latest release of Apple’s operating system, which an increasing number of Mac users are switching to. ... A closer look shows the bug is inside Data Detectors, a feature that lets apps recognize dates, locations, and contact data, making it easy for you to save this information in your address book and calendar.
  13. Geofencing could kill battery life, leaving the GPS on a bunch of the time.
  14. Try the beta tapatalk tab, works reasonably on the 7
  15. Yea I think the pressure wave from one blowing will set off more, the balls are also held in place by gravity and water pressure, sudden drops may cause leaks.
  16. Now your talking sense :-)
  17. Update 14 fixes all of the issues by simply uninstalling it completely.
  18. I think we can probably all agree that the benefits of running java are completely outweighed by its complete and utter lack of any working security at all.
  19. Um, you can do this with special groups under group policy for computers in an OU. I question the wisdom of it though, it is very close to asking what the best way to set yourself on fire would be.
  20. We use the iscsi hookup as the dirty substandard Linux underpinnings can't cope with ntfs5 and later versions of windows backup. It is just easier to take the responsibility away from it and have it dealt with by a system that applies the rules of a modern filesystem to any transactions.
  21. Nexus 7 tap a talk tab beta works fine with notifications apart from the beta related crashes it's very persistent. Despite the lacklustre state of the nexus 7.
  22. +1 love me some Antec, use them a lot when I can.
  23. I doubt Google gives an excrement, they can coast on their ad revenue for a decade or so, it will be as private as it needs to be to collect sundry information on you and your users. If they trip up a little as has happened a few hundred thousand users will lose their 'privacy' and the story will helpfully be scrubbed from search engines. Companies operate for profit, you just need to stay in their profit margin and you'll probably be fine but drop out of the scope of profit and your for it. This is not limited to Google or even companies, large groups will also send you packing for some market share, Ubuntu anyone.
  24. The commandlets should be in the working directory of the script that you are trying to run, probably somewhere inside the ilm program folder, just search in there for PS1 files. I have not used ILM, there may be a shell that you open to do stuff with it that imports stuff and sets the working folder automatically. Just suggesting using the same commands to manually import the special PS commands and make sure that they are actually available.
