Last week I bought one of these on a special for $95 including shipping.
The price is up a bit now, but so far I'm impressed as a road laptop.

Re: [FRIAM] The DEL hilarity continues

2015-12-14 Thread Nick Thompson
Gill, 

 

I have had good luck with my HP “Elitebook” which I got through my University.  
 My warrantee service was through folks down in Rio Rancho, which was really 
good because they actually spoke English AND I Knew Where To Find Them, and 
they knew it.  I am not sure how you have to buy it to achieve that connection, 
but perhaps through their business sales people.  My only problem with the 
machine is that it has the stupidest volume control mechanism of anything 
invented since the 15th Century.   Better it should have mice with megaphones.

Greetings all!

It seems like the power system for my DEL is kerput.

Anyone have opinions on where to find a fun to use budget sensetive
 computer  wich can easly handle games yet then fun to  learn JavaScript
and Python on.
I don't know if it makes much difference my DEL monitor looks like it can
handle HDMI, and has VGA of some kind.

I am also mulling over  some combination of mabie an Xbox and computer so
as to save wear and tear on my laptop-

Re: [FRIAM] ADVISORY: City Will "Flip the Switch" on Gigabit Internet Speeds at 12/14 Special Event

2015-12-14 Thread Judith
FYI,

I called the contact number on the Santa Fe fiber website, which indeed was 
cybermesa.  The person I spoke with was not very informative about any 
timescale for rollout other than stating that service would begin with 
businesses in the railyard area then the Capitol.  He mentioned that more fiber 
would need to be laid to include other areas and/or households.  He did not 
mention wifi extensions to fiber access.  Basically it did not seem as if 
cybermesa was interested or capable of providing service to consumers as 
opposed to businesses any time soon.  However, it may just be that the person I 
spoke with was a sales person who did not want to waste his time talking about 
a service he could not yet sell.

Nick-- I don't think there are answers to your space question yet.  First,
the City Council has to get on board.

As to access, call Cybermesa.  It has some contract related to laying the

Thanks, Tom, for this report.  

 

So how does this work from here?  Could I start a company called Egg-Head 
Services (my logo would by Humpty-Dumpty sitting on a wall) and start 
connecting people to the hub?  Would I need my own wire?  Or could I commandeer 
wires already there?  

 

As for the space over REI, does the City now hire people to oversee it?  Do we 
have any thoughts who that might be?  Wink, wink; nudge, nudge.  Does anybody 
have any policy guidelines for the operation of such a space?  W,w; n, n.  

 

Isn’t this something we have been dreaming about?

Yeah, I was there.  Looks like it might be a good start, but it probably will 
be a long time until fiber-to-the-home is available for most of Santa Fe.  What 
else is new.  

 

But the mayor did say that he is going to ask the city council to open up 8,000 
sf of space in the 500 Market St.  (above REI) to start-ups.  Free?  I don't 
know.  As he said, that space, which now has gigabyte cnx, has been vacant 
since the building was constructed.  Of course this is what SF Complex tried to 
do 8 yrs ago.  I've seen the mayor recently at a couple events like this.  I 
think that unlike his predecessor, he gets the idea of the Digital Revolution 
and is genuinely engaged is trying to move ahead.  A welcome change.

 

This new gigabyte system is, we are told, an open system, so any provider can

Does anybody know how to find their rollout schedule, and a map of the “first 
gigabit district”?

Seconded, and did anyone go? I overslept.

Re: [FRIAM] ADVISORY: City Will "Flip the Switch" on Gigabit Internet Speeds at 12/14 Special Event

2015-12-14 Thread Tom Johnson
Yeah, I was there.  Looks like it might be a good start, but it probably
will be a long time until fiber-to-the-home is available for most of Santa
Fe.  What else is new.

But the mayor did say that he is going to ask the city council to open up
8,000 sf of space in the 500 Market St.  (above REI) to start-ups.  Free?
I don't know.  As he said, that space, which now has gigabyte cnx, has been
vacant since the building was constructed.  Of course this is what SF
Complex tried to do 8 yrs ago.  I've seen the mayor recently at a couple
events like this.  I think that unlike his predecessor, he gets the idea of
the Digital Revolution and is genuinely engaged is trying to move ahead.  A
welcome change.

This new gigabyte system is, we are told, an open system, so any provider
can connect and resell the service.
