If you have need of sound from your VMs don't use Hyper-V. Last time I tried using it (about two months ago) for both Windows client and Linux clients, there was no audio capability. Personally I use VirtualBox and it works great for all operating systems (including a "virtual hackintosh" which has it's own issues like getting a decent desktop size and audio only works on one channel, but the point is that it can be done) and it supports snapshots so you can go back to a previously good known state with just a few clicks (think of it as System Restore for VMs).

Have you looked at things like this[^] I ended up nicking code from several places and rolling my own, because none of them gave exactly what I wanted. The one in the link doesn't give a true progress bar. this one does[^] ___________________________________________ .\\axxx (That's an 'M')

I'm self employed and VAT registered so in effect it'll only cost about £650 which I think is pretty good. It's to be used as a pure development environment - since I tend to work with confidential client data, I tend to use mock data sets which I can rebuild at will. As such, I'm not too bothered about having extra redundancy in place. I might think about getting a second drive and putting them both in a RAID 0 array but I'm still a little way off needing 3Tb of storage so RAID 5 might be a way down the line yet!!

Use Set_parms command to change IP and hostname change it to new value and reboot. #set_params hostname #set_params ip_address

Not as far as I can see - for me it's the sort of feature I'd use once or twice and then forget about so I just went for what looked like the better picture. EDIT: I've just been and played with it and it does have a 'panorama assist' mode which looks something similar to the feature on the Kodak!

I am unsure about how they tested that: Even if they tied it to a 2000ft long rope, probably noone was sent there to check if the watch still worked. No, it tells time under a static pressure of 2000ft of water. That's not quite the same, they're only equivalent if there's zero movement between the watch and the water. Just for normal surface swimming you need 50m water resistance, normal diving and water sports need 100m; high dives/scuba need 200m although for the latter you should probably get one that's passed ISO certification as a divers watch. 2000'/600m would qualify it for deeper diving of some sort, but google isn't turning up an actual limit. As for testing they probably used a shallow tank and then used high pressure air to get the total pressure up to the target level. 3x12=36 2x12=24 1x12=12 0x12=18

Not new, but good.

Hi Chris, I've been able to connect fine last night and this morning so it looks like whatever you did worked. I'll keep an eye out (it beats doing work!) and let you know if I have any more problems. Thanks Dave Sarchasm : The gulf between the author of sarcastic wit and the person who doesn't get it.

Gotta love Jack Bauwer. :)

to add controls (with eventhandlers) on pageweb you have to add it on page-init. try this: protected override void OnInit(EventArgs e) { base.OnInit(e); lblDialogTitle.Text = "Confirm Exit"; lblDialogMessage.Text = "Are you sure? Click OK to continue and lose any data entered"; ClearEventHandlers(btnDialogOK); btnDialogOK_Click.Click += new EventHandler(btnDialogOK_Click); ClearEventHandlers(btDialogCancel); btnDialogCancel_Click += new EventHandler(btnDialogCancel_Click); } protected void btnWelcomePage_Click(object sender, ImageClickEventArgs e) { if (this.HasChanges()) { pnlDialog.Visible = true; } else { Response.Redirect("~/WelcomePage.aspx"); } } good luck Mehdi

Because $2 divided by three people equals something that's hard to store in binary. It results in 0.666666~, where the length of a byte is limited. A digital representation of a analogue value :) Excell sometimes keeps the "calculated" values without rounding them. Those values are already imprecise, since you can't encode every fraction using a byte. It keeps the unrounded value around, and displays a value with the specified formatting: in this case, a currency with two positions after the decimal-separator. It would be easier to test whether the data can be interpreted as a numeric, and if so, round it by two decimals. Keep in mind that you don't want to use these (formatted) numbers for further calculations; you'd want the original floats for that :) I are Troll :suss:

OEMs are all using samsung controllers that are barely faster than a hard drive in random IO. The Intel and Indilinx based controllers are and over an order of magnitude better.

while funny, I really don't think this is remotely based in fact. Seriously, first of all, no woman is going to "forget" that her man is going away for 2 weeks when "told several times including the night before". second, while not having phone access is understandable (non-dualbad phones) that man would have to be pretty stupid to not check his email for 2 weeks. so he is just as guilty as her. * some of these opinnions might have been influenced by a lady friend.

I like Adobe Audition, but it is pricey. Audacity is free and works, but I find the Audition easier to use. http://www.adobe.com/products/audition/[^]
