Interesting may have a look at that later at the £75 level. Was considering the Sophos UTM home version as well but another small wifi device would be fine. Ben

My understanding is that as lamps age the projector has to ramp up to try and keep it running at the same level so if you leave it until it blows or is really dim then you are at risk of causing other damage to the projector itself. Yes lamps can be expensive for some models and others are cheap as chips or you can re-lamp existing modules. Ben

Ammyy Admin - Remote Desktop Sharing - buy. Ben

There is certainly that functionality built in to the Sophos platform. Ben

You would just pay the vat and a fee to the company who delivers it which if it's parcel force is I think £8 http://www.parcelforce.com/customs-charging Ben

Once you have a vpn connection you can use remote assistance, vnc etc... to interact with client PC's Ben

if you are regularly supporting the same clients perhaps something like this https://www.softether.org/ might be something you can look into although it's probably not the solution for ad-hoc use. Ben

For access to client machines you could use the server as the way in and then use remote assistance to connect to them, otherwise get your employer to stop being a cheapskate and pay for a remote access tool that will work across your whole estate of clients. Ben

Sophos uses SPX which is an password protected PDF file. Ben

Powerline will only work if the 2 sockets are on the same phase which they may not be. Ben

A surface pro is a pc in a tablet so anything you can do on a domain pc you can do and more on a pro. Ben

Patch leads are so cheap I never bother making those but if you do then make sure you are using the correct connectors and correct cable for them then the main thing is to trim the conductors to the correct insert able length and make sure the ends are square. For the jacks you have 2 options mainly a punchdown version or ones from the likes of Panduit where they effectively self terminate. Ben

Physically installing and terminating the cable is pretty straightforward for anyone with a bit of practical ability however if you wish to be able to certify that the installation meets the requirements of the standards for the equipment then you will need to buy/rent the relevant test equipment and understand how to operate it. The biggest issue with running the cabling is the H&S side of it as well as things like asbestos awareness. Ben

Wouldn't necessarily say that as we used them for a leased line and they were the best price from the 8 or so providers I had quote, you have to compare the offerings and base your decisions on what's available. Ben

Before I left the academy we had an RM provided 100mbit connection, I priced up all the alternative providers for the same service and they came in at the best price. Centralized firewall management was one less thing to do, we already had our own smoothwall though. Ben

There's no official pebble watch app although there was a 3rd party one that's all I'm really missing to move. Ben

You should only just need to connect it and install a printer driver and then you can print to it from any application you want. Ben

I donated a week ago. Ben

I live in a rural market town and fftc has just become available wirelessly on a 38mps package I get a speedtest of 25-28 Ben

IF you have a 38Mbps product you should be getting at least 4 times that, what does sky say? Ben

Lots of shops and other places have monitors showing the view from cameras that you can't immediately see and are in breach of regs. Ben

Only if you turned it off everytime "normal" people came in and only if everyone in the office was designated as allowed to view it. Ben

@VeryPC thinbook. Ben

I'd assume the OP has had it sorted after 6 months. Spinrite hmmm yeah. Ben

Yes you can match it to a specified string. Ben
