VXA tape flaw by Arthur Begun
If you are considering a VXA tape drive from exabyte (formerly ecrix) you should be aware of a fatal flaw. Even though ads show a tape soaking in a cup of coffee and a claim that the data is still recoverable, the tape header is extremely fragile. If you are doing a backup and the computer...

External Drive Dock to Allow Hotswap SCSI to Attach by USB? by W[_3_]
NewerTech make a product named Voyager Q to interface SATA drives to a host by USB, Firewire, or eSATA. This is sometimes called a "drive toaster" because of the way you can mount a drive vertically into the enclosure without the need for any tray. Does anyone make something similar for...

Firefox palaa sivun yläreunaan, mikä rikki? by Kaapo Tikka
Maailmaa parhaillaan silpova ydinpäästöjen synnyttämä nälänhätä alkaa saada sellaiset mittasuhteet, ettei sellaista olla nähty maailmansotien 40-luvun. Suomessa ei tietysti poliittisesta harhaisuudesta ja kaunasta johtuvan ydinhaihattelujen yms. takia olla tajuttu päälle kaatuvan...

Nokia PC Suite 6.x by Esko Karhu
Nettimaailma on siitä lystikäs kiulu, että jostain kumman syystä sinne kirjoitelleille muodostuu illuusio siitä,että ikäänkuin identtiteetti olisi täällä jollain mystisellä tasvalla suojassa. Väärä luulo. Linjojen pitäjillä/SUPO:lla kun on lakimääre tunnistaa KAIKKI kirjoittajanimet, koska netti...
