Re: can I fix windows with linux
okay I'm trying to get avast to work in TRK. I got the key for avast and went to the computer running trk (I'm trying to update right now). then I opened the file with vi and guess what it wasn't there. Is that right? So I figured I was supposed to creeate it. But what goes in it? I tried it with only the password but that doesn't seem to work. Hmmm perhaps the home directory it is supposed to be in is not the same as the terminAl implies. What is the full file name?

We used it here at work during a major virus outbreak. All our heavy lifting back end Linux, but all our front end web and document processing (parsing windows documents) are windows. Last May, one of our customers slipped us a virus, and we didn't catch it before it started spreading thoughout the Windows server farm. Three data centers in two countries... It was a fun time for all. But we got through it thanks to TRK. It did a terrific job of cleaning our machines, then we put a new AV on, and away they went. Fortuanately for us, a huge number of our desktops are Linux and Mac, so we already had *Nix based machines to run TRK from. But, it does run as a live CD.

Re: Which tablet(s) the best for Linux applications?
This reeks of Transformer, so I'm curious which was chicken/egg. Then found this there: Since 2011, Always Innovating doesn't sell any more to individual consumers and has focused its activities on licensing business. The economics of selling to individual consumers doesn't make sense any more for a relatively small player when top-tier players are starting a price war on tablet and similar devices. Instead Always Innovating is now licensing all its innovations, including the latest HDMI Dongle, to manufacturers all over the world. If you have any interest to license one of our products, please register here. Sounds like a patent troll in the making... Sadly, it does not make sense to be a small provider of niche hardware like tablets when trying to compete with the likes of asus, samsung, and lg that make *your* displays and chips.

Re: website hosting
Full Disclosure: I work for GoDaddy.com, my opinions however are my own and I am not speaking for GoDaddy.com or in an official respect for GoDaddy.com. Your question is a bit open ended, what do you plan on doing with said website? Is it just a personal wordpress blog? Something serious? If it's something serious I would look at the grid hosting packages... They're a little bit more expensive, but you get a load balanced cluster serving your page compared to a single server. (obviously if it's just a tinker about personal site... you don't need the whole redundancy thing as our uptime is pretty good by industry standards). With the grid and economy hosting you lost the whole website tonight functionality. But if you know html, or are having someone else design it for you -- that's not too big of a deal. If you can respond with more specifics as to what you're looking for... I'm sure the list could help you out. -Steven Bailey.

Go to HostGator. Better deal. GoDaddy is solid, however I like HostGator better. I host both places.

Re: website hosting
hostgator? why do you prefer them? what about registering a domain name? if I do hosting with godaddy the domain registration is only 1.99. but they fail to sat what hosting costs after the year is up.
