Re: [H] MS dot-NET
I have a program (or two) that needs it, so no choice. I thought it was a *new name* for older stuff. MS likes to rename things as they make them newer... I'm drawing a blank, but maybe it has its roots in Active-X??? See: http://www.microsoft.com/net/overview.aspx SilverLight even uses parts of it. Rick Glazier From: DSinc Some months back our collective convinced me that MS DOT-NET was painless and may be beneficial in the future.
Re: [H] MS dot-NET
The .Net libraries are kind of like the C libraries of old. The libraries contain methods that the calling programs can use.

[H] AnyDVD
Does anyone have any experience with AnyDVD? In short, on two different machines, it refuses to read these BBC disks, despite being able to play the discs on these same machines. It gives a long-winded message about the disk is dirty, bad, or your drive is not on the right region. Then, of course, their forum is pretty darn arrogant about it, that it is unequivocally your fault, non AnyDVD. I probably would not have been bothered if it were one disk, but it's disks from two different sets. The rather funny part is, on one computer, if I enable AnyDVD's logging, then it will read the disk. Thanks...Steve
[H] Asus Netbook
I went out and got a netbook, it's an Asus Eee PC 1005PEB, which I've upgraded to 2GB memory. It has an N450 in it, and, although I expected it to be slow, it's pretty much a dog and Asus had decided that any working area on the screen should be made as small as possible with large menu bars, gadgets, etc. It came with Win7 Starter which brings on the question: I have three options here: Clean up this install, install Win7 Ultimate or install XP. I just don't know if XP will actually be faster. What I'd like to do is be able to play video off the hard drive, not necessarily HD. It just seems to me that the Aspire Revo seems faster. (Yeah, I tried with wired network also). Suggestions? ThanksSteve
Re: [H] Asus Netbook
XP is faster especially with only 2 gigs of RAM..

Re: [H] AnyDVD
Maybe a stupid question but have you updated it to the latest build? I download and install a new version 1 or 2 times per month. That's how rapidly they evolve it.
