  1. As it says on the article, the contract doesn't take affect until the item is in the hands of the buyer. Wonder how that would work, are they legally allowed to hold an item you've bought back and not deliver it?
  2. Then the post is in the wrong forum, this is mean for jokes, funny things and various other related content. I had a close friend die of Cancer, and irregardless of smoking, or any other form; Cancer is not a joke in the slightest. DaveP: No need to apologise, you do as you wish, I just took offence to it, but thats fine, we don't all agree on everything Just, there may be people concious about cancer, or know someone thats passed away due to cancer
  3. And the fact your are getting a KRB ticket back means your AD servers are acknowledging the service, and all is working.
  4. Works wonders on HP dx** series laptops, the amount bought on eBay and fixed within an hour is amazing. People just flog them for cheap, and they get resold for masses when sold
  5. Yes, but your going to have to hold it there for alot longer, the solder should turn very shiny, at the point where its almost fluid again, and that's the point to stop. It needs to solidify to work.
  6. Could add AJAX and other RIA frameworks in there. Java is certainly on the rise, specially combined with GWT and AJAX.
  7. LES100 is discontinued for new customers. Service is now called BT EES. http://www2.bt.com/static/i/media/pdf/lan_san_broch.pdf
  8. Really does!!
  9. BBC Radio 4 had the Chief in charge of the Medical Council on the other day and he infact said the government would not be closing any more schools, they've gone beyond the point of trying to control the spread. Parents are the worst affected as their kids need looking after, which means less people at work due to family, which means loss in month by month GDP/GDI, and thats a major factor being tied into the whole situation. Added the fact, latest figures are showing a month-by-month decline in infections
  10. You may just find yourself £10 down, apart from this solution (if it works) From experience, and valuable experience, I have found that grabbing a heat gun, removing enclosures and heating any PCB board with solder tends to work. The amount of laptops I've bought off ebay for £20-60 quid with "Video, Graphics not working, no video output" only to get the boards out, heat them up so the solder re-solders and switch them back on, and voila Life! and resold for £300-600
  11. Keyword for Red Hat / CentOS - "Enterprise" designed for purpose.

    Nano/Pico ITX

    Thanks for that, the Zotac board is very nice indeed. All links are nice, thanks for looking into it. Would rather be using XenServer for running multiple OS. Any ideas how a Pentium DC would cope running say 2 x Windows Server 2003 and 1 x m0n0wall install?

    Nano/Pico ITX

    How many guests are you running, what guests? and what resources assigned to the guests?
  14. Reminds me of Pat from Slackware, when he disappeared, only to find out he was very ill. The community stepped in and took the project over, and to this day still stick to the ethos and drive of the original project.
  15. "There are" don't you mean "Everyone" - IT changes everyday, new technologies and the likes. The fundamentals are what we learn. Logic, Troubleshooting, Experience with Systems, Hardware, Software and the likes, Common Errors, Error resolution etc etc.
  16. A decent book. The new live your life with 100 things book sounds interesting. Or "Lovely Bones" Alice Sebold, good book.
  17. Get well soon. .....and just when I needed a few quotes done

    Nano/Pico ITX

    Recently started my N+ and MCSE course and currently looking for a small form factor server for home. I have access to unlimited time and resources on Microsoft's Virtual environments, however the slowness and latency between servers is rather frustrating. I ideally don't want large cases, large motherboards, fans that drive you insane and the likes. So was thinking about Pico, Nano ITX boards. I know Intel and Via have a 1.6 Atom processor, but unsure how a server would cope being run on the specific hardware. Anyone tried this, or have any suggestions to processor or *-itx board? Currently have a Pico-ITX board, VIA C7 processor and 1GB CIF card setup to run m0n0wall at home, this is all purely for development needs to be able to run through exercises with the comfort of speed and the likes.

    Spam / MTA's

    Morning/Afternoon Folks, Any ever tried to filter spam through a linux server? Currently trialing Stop spam with the Anti-Spam-SMTP-Proxy (ASSP) (A decent free alternative), and can't quite get my head around the configuration. Firewall - Redirecting P25 traffic to 10.0.0.1 ASSP: 10.0.0.1 Port 25 Exchange 10.0.0.2 Port 26 on the SMTP connector, allowing only 10.0.0.1 to relay/connect Some wiki examples show the server running as: Internet > Assp > Exchange > Client [inbound] Client > Assp > Exchange > Internet [outbound] And the majority show MTA examples, i.e. Internet > Assp > Exchange > Client Client > Assp > Exchange > MTA > Internet My questions; Will exchange act as a MTA when sending out emails, and how would a client outlook know to connect to ASSP outbound rather than exchange. The product is packed with features, and is very regarded however the documentation is very poor, and examples are very vague. Hopefully someone has a few ideas
  20. I assume from the posts that Bokode is applied to very specific applications, and not set to replace industry wide packaging barcodes? I've left education and now work within the logistics field, and have just finished reading the GS1 specification barcode which is due to take over everything from 2010, everything will be GS1 enabled, even banana's and lipsticks and the such.
  21. Learning the math functions within VB, calculations from variable data. You set the calculation source, calculate and print the data. No small feat at all, you'll get a grasp of it all soon enough, just going to take a while to get everything in place. Another step, would be searching for similar projects of sourceforge and the likes and checking code examples. I'm sure certain functions will show in other applications (*Calculating data percentages etc from a source with variable data) Looking at some examples, a function like: dim input1,input2 as integer input1=sourcefield1.source input2=sourcefield2.source sourcefield3.source=(input1*input2)/100 and the such, calculate the data in the first sourcefield, and the second, and put the data in the third, obviously you have to name the sourcefields, more than likely columna.text or however your data is going to be shown.
  22. Good luck!
  23. The thing with enterprise grade databases, is they lose the flat file effect. You have to make connect to a database, unlike MS Access, SQL and Mysql run local services on specific ports, you connect to the database and read the information, this means the whole database isn't locked as the file isn't always read, it also allows you to access it multiple times, more than one user can connect to the database. You than structure your queries to match what you want todo, same as MS Access for example SELECT Year, StudentName FROM database This would display all students and their respective years, obviously SQL is more powerful, and there are amplitudes of different instructions you can read from the database. An example of a flat database like MS Access would be Oracle Berkeley DB Here are some links to get a grips with the process: SQL Exercises
  24. I believe you
