The results place ATT’s data network not just on top, but well ahead
of everyone else. “ATT’s data throughput is 40 to 50 percent higher
than the competition, including Verizon,”
So we'll see bad 3g everywhere with Verizon? And ATT will look better
because they can only offer bad 3g in a couple places? I like where it says

Oh I get very well why they are doing it. But would you really put up with
this? ATT has known about this issue since the first six months of the
iPhone release, if by now they still don't know where calls are getting
dropped, what have they been doing all this time? Well recently they have

All information prior to Android. The lineups on the carriers changes,
Verizon was a few weeks late to the Android game, but now offer 3, on top of
the blackberry and WM phones every other carrier has. They don't have an

Hi all,
Related to my previous question about swapping boot drives, I suspect I am
going to bite the bullet and build in time to do a re-install and not try to
band-aid it all.
Which leads me to another question.

Interesting dilemma. I can't imagine why them deleting a shortcut from
their desktop would affect your desktop. Or whatever menus you're
using to run the apps.
Much more annoying to me is when an app asks if I want to install an
icon to my desktop and I forget I had to use the elevated admin
I think it's because (by default?) it gets installed in the all users desktop
folder so the icon is not in my desktop folder per se. When it gets deleted by
one of the family, it gets deleted from the common folder.
So, I figure I should be able to move it from the common folder to the specific
An interesting note: Win7 has moved this to C:\Users\Public\Desktop.
Anyway, I'm unaware of a method to automatically redirect a shortcut
from the public desktop to your own.
It wouldn't affect me for a few reasons. First, I would just replace
the shortcut as soon as I found it missing, probably

Yes, you can boot from an external drive, but that's not what he's asking.
It's what he needs to do, but didn't state it.
With a loaner computer, there's no reason to bother to switch the hard
