Hi,

I am (one of many) members of the Famous Writhligton Orchid Project, which will be attending the chealsea flower show this year (I’m the techie dude =D). Anyway, we have a Logitech QuickCam Pro 9000 which we need to take the image from and put in a simple web browser for the show. It won’t be shown over the internet, just locally for the show.

The webpage will be shown on a TV screen.

Any how-to ideas?

Thanks,

Cloud Computing 101
I’ve long thought cloud computing sounds very useful and exciting, but I’ve never actually given it a spin yet. I really prefer to work with files that are safe and secure on my local hard drive. However, I just read an article touting tthe benefits of cloud computing, which include security. If…

I’ve long thought cloud computing sounds very useful and exciting, but I’ve never actually given it a spin yet. I really prefer to work with files that are safe and secure on my local hard drive.

However, I just read an article touting tthe benefits of cloud computing, which include security. If someone steals your cloudbook, they’ll get no files if the documents you’ve been working on are all online. When you get home, just change your online passwords, and you’re safe.

With that in mind, where does one begin? What cloud services do you use or recommend? I’d be priimarily interested in word processing, but it would be cool if it was possible to work with Dreamweaver and Photoshop online.

A relatd question: If someone steals your cloudbook, they’d still have access to your browsers and e-mail clients, with all their passwords. Does anyone have any tips for protecting passwords. Can you somehow rig a netbook so that the browsers would automatically uninstall or purge their passwords if someone tried other than the owner tried to use them?

Thanks.

Help me choose solution between Apple Mac’s possibilities (imac, macbook, macpro)
Hi guys I do run on my Mac all day all year. I use it to work (design, web, photo) and for personal use to. It’s a laptop so it is easy to combine both. I use it 85% work, 15% personal at home. I just pop into my head lately that I should get a second one just in case it dies one day…. I would…

Hi guys

I do run on my Mac all day all year. I use it to work (design, web, photo) and for personal use to. It’s a laptop so it is easy to combine both. I use it 85% work, 15% personal at home. I just pop into my head lately that I should get a second one just in case it dies one day….
I would also appreciate having 2 computers at home/office.

I presently run : PowerBook G4 1.5 ghz (2000$) + Dell 22″ widescreen (350$) + 400gig exernal drive (250$)

I am looking to a solution to either

option 1 : Get a new mac (1800-3000$), keep the old one close.

option 2 : Get a PC (500$), keep the old one close, but will still need to be changed one day or another. (I like less the option #2 tough, but it is way cheaper)

…and as option 1, this is where i get confused… I can’t decide if I would got for a macbook 13″ - macbook15″, or a imac 20″ - imac 24″ (and sell my widescreen), or go big with a huge macpro ??
I kind of appreciate the combo of having a laptop and close it to plug a big screen, it helps sometimes… but maybe the imac is the best bang for the buck ?
My Powerbook is bean running super great since the begining and it is gonna be 3 years soon so in one way I say why go for the huge macpro then. They we got the other ones to choose from, and why ?
Thanks for commenting !

I’ve been twittering for a few weeks now and think I can start to reign in online compulsions - so may as well throw SP into the mix by making it easier to interact.

Windows 7 RC, Skype Won’t Detect Microphone

Hi guys

I would also appreciate having 2 computers at home/office.

I presently run : PowerBook G4 1.5 ghz (2000$) + Dell 22″ widescreen (350$) + 400gig exernal drive (250$)

I am looking to a solution to either

option 1 : Get a new mac (1800-3000$), keep the old one close.

option 2 : Get a PC (500$), keep the old one close, but will still need to be changed one day or another. (I like less the option #2 tough, but it is way cheaper)

…and as option 1, this is where i get confused… I can’t decide if I would got for a macbook 13″ - macbook15″, or a imac 20″ - imac 24″ (and sell my widescreen), or go big with a huge macpro ??
I kind of appreciate the combo of having a laptop and close it to plug a big screen, it helps sometimes… but maybe the imac is the best bang for the buck ?
My Powerbook is bean running super great since the begining and it is gonna be 3 years soon so in one way I say why go for the huge macpro then. They we got the other ones to choose from, and why ?
Thanks for commenting !

Cloud Computing 101

I’ve long thought cloud computing sounds very useful and exciting, but I’ve never actually given it a spin yet. I really prefer to work with files that are safe and secure on my local hard drive.

However, I just read an article touting tthe benefits of cloud computing, which include security. If someone steals your cloudbook, they’ll get no files if the documents you’ve been working on are all online. When you get home, just change your online passwords, and you’re safe.

With that in mind, where does one begin? What cloud services do you use or recommend? I’d be priimarily interested in word processing, but it would be cool if it was possible to work with Dreamweaver and Photoshop online.

A relatd question: If someone steals your cloudbook, they’d still have access to your browsers and e-mail clients, with all their passwords. Does anyone have any tips for protecting passwords. Can you somehow rig a netbook so that the browsers would automatically uninstall or purge their passwords if someone tried other than the owner tried to use them?

Thanks.

I’ve been twittering for a few weeks now and think I can start to reign in online compulsions - so may as well throw SP into the mix by making it easier to interact.

I can quit anytime.

I would also appreciate having 2 computers at home/office.

I presently run : PowerBook G4 1.5 ghz (2000$) + Dell 22″ widescreen (350$) + 400gig exernal drive (250$)

I am looking to a solution to either

option 1 : Get a new mac (1800-3000$), keep the old one close.

option 2 : Get a PC (500$), keep the old one close, but will still need to be changed one day or another. (I like less the option #2 tough, but it is way cheaper)

…and as option 1, this is where i get confused… I can’t decide if I would got for a macbook 13″ - macbook15″, or a imac 20″ - imac 24″ (and sell my widescreen), or go big with a huge macpro ??
I kind of appreciate the combo of having a laptop and close it to plug a big screen, it helps sometimes… but maybe the imac is the best bang for the buck ?
My Powerbook is bean running super great since the begining and it is gonna be 3 years soon so in one way I say why go for the huge macpro then. They we got the other ones to choose from, and why ?

Help me choose solution between Apple Mac’s possibilities (imac, macbook, macpro)
Hi guys I do run on my Mac all day all year. I use it to work (design, web, photo) and for personal use to. It’s a laptop so it is easy to combine both. I use it 85% work, 15% personal at home. I just pop into my head lately that I should get a second one just in case it dies one day…. I would…

Hi guys

I do run on my Mac all day all year. I use it to work (design, web, photo) and for personal use to. It’s a laptop so it is easy to combine both. I use it 85% work, 15% personal at home. I just pop into my head lately that I should get a second one just in case it dies one day….
I would also appreciate having 2 computers at home/office.

I presently run : PowerBook G4 1.5 ghz (2000$) + Dell 22″ widescreen (350$) + 400gig exernal drive (250$)

I am looking to a solution to either

option 1 : Get a new mac (1800-3000$), keep the old one close.

option 2 : Get a PC (500$), keep the old one close, but will still need to be changed one day or another. (I like less the option #2 tough, but it is way cheaper)

…and as option 1, this is where i get confused… I can’t decide if I would got for a macbook 13″ - macbook15″, or a imac 20″ - imac 24″ (and sell my widescreen), or go big with a huge macpro ??
I kind of appreciate the combo of having a laptop and close it to plug a big screen, it helps sometimes… but maybe the imac is the best bang for the buck ?
My Powerbook is bean running super great since the begining and it is gonna be 3 years soon so in one way I say why go for the huge macpro then. They we got the other ones to choose from, and why ?
Thanks for commenting !

The webpage will be shown on a TV screen.

Any how-to ideas?

I’ve been twittering for a few weeks now and think I can start to reign in online compulsions - so may as well throw SP into the mix by making it easier to interact.

I can quit anytime.

Cloud Computing 101
I’ve long thought cloud computing sounds very useful and exciting, but I’ve never actually given it a spin yet. I really prefer to work with files that are safe and secure on my local hard drive. However, I just read an article touting tthe benefits of cloud computing, which include security. If…

I’ve long thought cloud computing sounds very useful and exciting, but I’ve never actually given it a spin yet. I really prefer to work with files that are safe and secure on my local hard drive.

However, I just read an article touting tthe benefits of cloud computing, which include security. If someone steals your cloudbook, they’ll get no files if the documents you’ve been working on are all online. When you get home, just change your online passwords, and you’re safe.

With that in mind, where does one begin? What cloud services do you use or recommend? I’d be priimarily interested in word processing, but it would be cool if it was possible to work with Dreamweaver and Photoshop online.

A relatd question: If someone steals your cloudbook, they’d still have access to your browsers and e-mail clients, with all their passwords. Does anyone have any tips for protecting passwords. Can you somehow rig a netbook so that the browsers would automatically uninstall or purge their passwords if someone tried other than the owner tried to use them?

Thanks.
