Indiana Jones - Jones Beach (enuf cold!)

...Now to get this thread back on track, I'll go again ;)...

comic strip --> Calvin and Hobbes...

Hobie Cat(catamarans)

music -> Sound of Music

nose -> ears (why ears?!!!)

Gummi Bears ;-)

the ah, promiscuous Alice post

ROFLMBO!!! one in particular stands out ... something about virues, or lack there of! ;)

i dunno, Alice could be kinda funny at times! granted most of the time she was definitely a blonde's blonde tho! ;)

nice site Roberdin

gosh, to be 14 again - with your moxie Thamior!!! :-)

LOL! ok, i'm not putting my 2 cents in on this one - it's sure to come back to me, with PLENTY of interest! ;-)

been scarce lately - sorry i missed ur B'day extravaganza; hope u had a great day and like Kaynine wish many more should come yur way! :D

Happy Birthday Tekmaven - albeit somewhat belatedly! Hope you had a good day, and many more to ya! :-)

Ok,one more thing: A third link on the first page of the search was "Startup program List - Prepared by Agni Sharman" (http://www.geocities.com/agnisharman/#C), which offered up this info:
"Compaq Message Server
COMPAQ-RBA.EXE
Applies to CPQBootPerfDB below as well. These files generate some kind of server or servlet that attempts to connect with Compaq online. They are like Trojans, but fairly harmless. They send information on the "Compaq Advisor/Compaq Message Screener" application that comes with every Compaq computer and provide feedback on how computer users use the Message Advisor. These messages appear occassionally and instruct and advise users on their computer and its use. They generally attempt to get you (these messages) to connect to Compaq's website. They may be safely disabled via (1) MSCONFIG or (2) Start -> Programs -> Compaq Advisor -> Advisor Settings under the "advanced" tab. Not required and can cause problems"

HTHEMS

{
HTH = Hope That Helps;
HTHEM = Hope That Helps Even More;
HTHEMS = Hope That Helps Even More-So;
}

On further drilling I found that link to be pretty useless. I browsed down my initial search and clicked on a "Startup - Short List" link (http://www.pacs-portal.co.uk/startup_pages/startups_short.htm), which brought up a long list. Doing a find for rba on the list showed "Compaq Message Server (COMPAQ-RBA.EXE)"

HTHEM

Found this on my first (& only) search on Google, searching for "rba.exe"

http://www.bugtoaster.com/dw15/Reports/ApplicationDetail.asp?Company=Microsoft+Corporation&BaseName=ntdll.dll

Page took a long time to load - but it is a rather long list. Do a find on rba after the page loads and you should be ok.

HTH

Just wanted to pause a moment from my busy "computer life" to pass along my condolences to the families and loved ones of the Columbia crew:

Michael P. Anderson, Payload Commander
David M. Brown, Mission Specialist
Kalpana Chawla, Mission Specialist and first astronaut of Indian descent to reach space,
Laurel Clark, Mission Specialist
Rick D. Husband, Shuttle Commander
William C. McCool, Pilot
and
Ilan Ramonand, Mission Specialist and Israel's first astronaut to reach space

May God bless them, and Peace be with them for ever more, one and all.

I thank God that now where in my job description is listed the phrase "in harm's way," and yet, as just about every little kid can atest to, what if...

...looks like it's up again! :-)

looks like its down again... :-(

Apple ports every version of mac os X to the PC...its called makklar or something like that. its never released tho.

http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,3959,496249,00.asp dated 08/30/02

hmmmm..... maybe i was a bit too quick on my the trigger on my earlier post re markets for OS X... http://www.nwfusion.com/news/2002/1202macmanage.html

we dont leanr if we dont ask - and boy do *i* ever need to ask! ;-)

Well, that's a bit deceptive, since your mixing CISCs with RISCs machines, and they really DON'T compare directly. Most ppl use the almighty xHz as a measuring stick, when it really hasn't been valid since early on in the introduction of so-called x586 machines. Truth of the matter is that each architecture - or should i say the execution of each architecture - is significantly different in what they do EFFICIENTLY. Going back "a bit" the Amiga was the preeminent video production machine, the Macintosh the apple int the eye of all computer graphic artists (sorry, couldn't resist the apple thing!) and the ubiquitous PC the king of the rest. With the exception of the Amiga platform, that still holds pretty much true through today, whereby pc's are historically much more efficient at cpu intensive tasks and file storage, while being relative poor with ram and video intensive tasks - the very fortes of the Mac. So, we really shouldn't be asking which machine is "better" per buck spent, per se, but rather what it is that the machine needs to accomplish and which one makes a better match for the appointed task(s). After all, you could buy a cheap box and throw a coupla nics in it and have a poor man's router, or you could go out and get a CISCO piece, which would cost more up front but which would be a much more suitable device for network management.

I really love the Mac - even tho i use pc's 99% of the time - but i don't see how this is really going to impact Microsoft that much. Don't get me wrong, i think this is a great move, especially considering Gx processors are RISC based to boot, but Mac's are (historically) more expensive than similar performing pc's. Since the whole movement towards Linux is based on coupling stability with a significantly lower total-cost-of-ownship it's not likely to make many inroads in that paradigm. Another major segment would be in the staid world of AIX/BSD/Solaris etc *nix variations and IBM/Sun/Toshiba etc Big Iron, but the players in this segment are all about track record, which Apple would have to work VERY hard to establish - in time. Third segment would be that niche area where companies/departments are reliant on integrating Mac's & *nix boxes, which Apple may very well be able to lock up. Just don't see Microsoft in most of this...then again, i was thinking of setting up Linux & Apple centric LANs to go with my Win2K workgroup @ home.... ;-)

Dani, i'm sorry, but i have to agree w/Dan here - "forums.techforums.com" seems a bit redundante... jmho. sidenote to Dan: very interesting that you would make that ~sql~ url references as i've just started picking up sql myself, but that's a topic for another thread...

1st: FEEL BETTER! :-D
2nd: GET SOME SLEEP! :-(
3rd: you've worked very hard in establishing techtalkforums.com - why dilute the product? make the forums links/a linked section or make the headlines links or a linked section, no?

that would be VERY kewl tho.... but would it work? if both cm's are run off the same demarkation point how much benefit would you get? getting a dedicated line - from the pole/underground junction box - would probable help quite a bit. without addressing the tuner issue, one could but two nics into a sys and run a cm thru each one....

dont know much about VB @ all but let me ask u a coupla ???...

what db are u trying to access the Access DB from?

does it support ODBC via VB directly, or do you need connection services, managers &/or drivers?

is it necessary to establish a connection authorization from your destination db to your external source (ODBC) db PRIOR to attempting connection?

i come from the Lotus Notes/Domino world, whereby the answers to all of the above is a resounding YES, but i do not know if that is universally true.

found a bunch of search results from altavista.com using the quoted phrase "data recovery software"

...my twin bro lost a drive by removing a compression file - "rocket.bin" thinking it was some sort of game that i had loaded on his system that i no longer used - whooops!!! its been a long time since that incident but i'll see if he recalls what it was. not sure if any s/w is going to help retrieve your info since it seems like its a hardware issue anyway. that being the case you would almost certainly need the services of data recovery company - which can be VERY, VERY expensive.

....Ooops, wrong forum... ;-)

still seems a bit unethical to me, but...

I'd like to ask a question how is this...

Just to follow up, the phone has, indeed, been cracked and you can now route around Verizon's Get It Now service.

You can read my tutorial on using gagin to upload ringtones and pix at http://jonroig.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=65.

... materially, not to mention ethically, different than warez s/w cracks? If this was warez s/w crack related, would you condone it's posting on TTF?

i'm guessing you don't have any documentation on how to perform the install, eh? i'm guessing you're running a flavor of unix, Solaris? i'm guesssing that you've browsed the cd for installables/executables? i'm guessing we could us a bit more info.

inscissor - thanks bro! hope your having a happy & blessed holiday season!!! :D

Tekmaven - it's never to late to "switch!" ;) in the mean time, wishing you a happy & blessed holiday season!!! :D

Happy Birthday Dani!!!

Much hugs & kisses :!: :!: :!: ;)

(how's that Dan?!)

Happy Birthday Dani :!: :!: :!: Legal yet :?: :!: ;)

did these links help out or no? interested in the super computer links?....

sorry, kinda jambed for time right now... the top grouping of links is for tech review sites, the middle grouping is for specific items and the link at the bottom is for a game that i didnt get a chance to look into. I also had some links for mid/never 21 century computing based on quantum mechanics, biological and/or chemical processes which'll make next decades computers look like the original Pong console (find that one! lol); if ur interested i'll spend the time either resurrecting those links or finding current ones...
