I got an IBM eServer xSeries 336 today. Ok, new isn’t really the right word for an IBM eServer xSeries 336 after all it’s more than three years old. None the less, it’s fine for running web and email services, which is what I am going to use it for. It’s annoyingly load, though and […]

Lycos Europe went bankrupt some few weeks ago. Since they are my current DNS provider, I’ll be moving my domains to the hosting provider they suggested. This may cause all domains to be unavailable for 1 or two days. I hope that this gets resolved quickly and everything goes back to normal.

I think the OS of the future thinks itself, we may have devices that recognize our thinking (electromagnetic wave detectors) and we can just IMAGINE what we might want to get done with our PCs and it just skips ahead and it’s done.

Or do I need an anti-virus to protect my computer. Some question might be, do I really need an anti-virus? Really? Well, my answer is no. You don’t need one, but it might keep you on the safer side of using a computer. That is, if you are not using your computer very often and […]

There are some times, where people make mistakes, mistakes that are great for some of us, and not so great for some others. One part of such mistakes includes mistakes in management. There is nothing bad if that mistake does not disturb anyone or invades someones privacy, or, you know, does bad things to people. […]

I always have to make this bunch of file recovery stuffs, I almost hate it. Somehow my storage devices did this to me again. Awesome harddisk crashes they are. Always those […]
