Re: [CGUYS] TV schedule listings

Two very good sites are: www.titantv.com and www.zap2it.com. You join for free and customize the channel guide of your provider for your favorite and preferred time of day, number of hours displayed. Titan can have separate tabs for OTA and for DBS listings as well. YMMV Subject: TV schedule list

Re: [CGUYS] tool size

Again, you miss the mark. A fine-trim carpenter would use a small hammer (or nail gun) and be most productive. A carpenter doing framing would need a large hammer (or larger nail gun). It is important to select the right tools for the tasks performed. That is not whining, but is called professio

Cash back debit cards? Btw, the best way to avoid fees is joining a credit union if you are eligible. There are banks that now actually make more on fees than on loaning money. -PJM db <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Thanks for the explanation Betty. Yes, my CC gives me cash back... not my debit car

Re: [CGUYS] tool size

Developers love dual screen setups (and I don't think it's just vanity :>... but it does look way cool a la the geek aesthetic). I use a 17" monitor because my soon-to-be ex-wife wants the 19" lcd and I know that having a readable font means is really cramped on the 17 and I need more screen real e

[CGUYS] AVG

My In-laws are getting a popup message from AVG that 7.5 is going obsolete and they should update to 8.0 (which of course is for pay). Any reason they can't keep using the free version? Should they download the latest version of whatever's free? -PJM Checkout One Laptop Per Child project lapto

Re: [CGUYS] AVG

Have them upgrade to AVG Free 8.0. AVG puts this warning up every time they do a major upgrade. The links they provide tend to steer you toward the pay product but you can find the free version if you dig around a bit. I upgraded this afternoon. The only problem I had was installing their optio

Is there a version on CD as there was with WinXP SP2? At the time of SP2, I only had dialup so I ordered the CD. I later heard that some people who used the downloaded version had problems that did not occur with the CD version. Ralph ***

Well, it seems I'm going to have to reinstall XP in the wife's laptop, so I'd like to install SP3 immediately. Is it my imagination or is the SP3 redist unavailable??? * ** List info, subscription management, list rules, arc

New info about AVG 8.0: It does come with a neat feature which rates webpages generated by search engines as to their safety rating (doesn't work with their installed Yahoo toolbar though). Not sure how they come up with this or how accurate it is, but it does present a certain comfort level wh

Paula, Dim LCD screen has become a common compaint, and there may be a solution! I have been repairing laptops recently, and they have a small board along the boarder of the LCD screen called the 'inverter'. It can cost as little as $20 in single quantity. According to http://www.inv

I won't have to worry about a recording machine because, I will be recording them onto my computer, before I transfer them to CD. When I say "recording machine" I mean the deck the tape was originally recorded on, if it was not the same deck you're using for playback. As you know the Revox A77
