I beleive i got it from magicbox on ebay. Check them out. We like it. Its not a super high end machine (obviously) but it does a pretty great job... And the price is cheap... So remember, while it works great, it is cheap... I’m not much of a company pumper unless I have direct interactions with them, but in this case I will make an exception..

Took a lot of my time researching this to figure out what the hell was going on. Check the links etc that I posted for more info on it. Its because companies like HP/Dell, etc etc etc all release their machines with basic images that they use across a lot of different machines instead of images made for each specific machine... And how those images interact with the OS and hardware inside. Its crazy…. Took a lot of my time researching this to figure out what the hell was going on.

You can hear how quiet it is in the video. Check out the youtube channel http://www.youtube.com/user/mikesmegabits for the reviews and videos. We use it lots out at the campground, works good. Been getting about 6-7 foot diagonal out on a big plastic sheet we have made into a screen outside. You find these on ebay... Very popular... I don't plug ebay sellers on the site though, sorry.

]]> Comment on Cheap website hosting and domains, not always the best deal… by Marcel http://www.mikesmegabits.com/?p=72&cpage=1#comment-38 Marcel Wed, 26 May 2010 00:53:41 +0000 http://www.mikesmegabits.com/?p=72#comment-38 Interesting post. But with all the free stuff they give, Im sure ownership of the domain name wasnt an option. I can see ya maybe they could be scamming by claiming her .com name as theres when she registered, but if she didnt actually "buy" the name then it kinda makes sense. Im guessing her or whoever setup her site didnt fully read the disclaimer before clicking "ok" But the scamming of $25 to move it after really blows! Interesting post.

Laptops, desktops, etc etc. So an image was used on these AMD machines that was possibly created on a machine with an Intel chip... Using that image on a machine with an AMD chip causes some files to not work right after the servicepack etc. The link to the info also provides more explaination. HP making shortcuts...
