Computer Competition

What happens to your computer when you don't shut down...  Have you ever noticed when you use your computer first thing in the
morning, the icons appear to be in a different place than when you left?  Have you sensed that something goes on if you leave your computer on overnight? Well, when you go to bed at night and forget to shut down your  computer,
I think you ought to know what actually 
goes on. For the first time, someone has "captured" what takes place after you leave the room...
                         
 

"Why Computers Sometimes Crash!"
by Dr. Seuss

(Read this to yourself aloud - it's great!)

If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port, and the bus is interrupted at a very last resort, and the access of the memory makes your floppy disk abort, then the socket packet pocket has an error to report.

If your cursor finds a menu item followed by a dash, and the double-clicking icon puts your window in the trash, and your data is corrupted cause the index doesn't hash, then your situation's hopeless and your system's gonna crash!

If the label on the cable on the table at your house, says the network is connected to the button on your mouse, but your packets want to tunnel to another protocol, that's repeatedly rejected by the printer down the hall.

 
And your screen is all distorted by the side effects of gauss, so your icons in the window are as wavy as a souse; then you may as well reboot and go out with a bang, 'cuz sure as I'm a poet, the sucker's gonna hang.


When the copy on your floppy's getting sloppy in the disk, and the macro code instructions is causing unnecessary risk, then you'll have to flash the memory and you'll want to RAM your ROM, and then quickly turn off the computer and be sure to tell your Mom!


Well, that certainly clears things up for me. How about you?

Thank you, Bill Gates, for bringing all this into our lives.

  SCREEN CLEANER

Have you noticed that your computer monitor, after a few years of use is not as clear as it was when new?? Well, that's because electrostatic charges cause micro-etching on the interior surface of the glass which can degrade the picture quality.

As a result you end up straining your vision and visual acuity can suffer... BUT...?? GOOD? NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?

Thanks to MICROSOFT this process is REVERSIBLE thanks to a brand new JUST INTRODUCED PROGRAM that "cleans" the inside of the screen!!!!!!
?

The process takes LESS THAN 30 SECONDS, and the difference is IMMEDIATELY NOTICEABLE!!!!!

Just Scroll down and let this program? do the work.

Q. I was reading about Dell's defective battery recall this week. How do I know if I've got one of the exploding batteries in my laptop computer, and if so, what do I do until the battery is replaced?

A. First of all, though the recall involves some 4.1 million batteries, according to Dell, there have only been six reported cases of "overheating" that resulted in property damage, but no injuries. (Dell refers to "overheating" which suggests a little warmth. In the spirit of full disclosure, however, it should be noted that there were flames associated with several "overheating" incidents, and one notebook actually exploded at a conference in Japan in June.)

The problem stems from flaws in the production of the Lithium-ion batteries made by Sony and used in Dell's Latitude, Inspiron, XPS, and Precision mobile workstation notebooks that shipped between April 1, 2004 and July 18, 2006.

To determine if you have one of the batteries in question, go to the Dell Battery Return Program Web site and enter your 20-digit battery ID number, located on the battery. If your battery is a candidate for free replacement, you'll be directed to an online order form. You can also call: 866-342-0011 or click HERE to review ZDNet's list of affected Dell notebook computers.

If you do have one of the batteries in question, it is recommended that you remove the battery from your computer and use the notebook exclusively on AC power until you receive your replacement battery.

As an interesting footnote, this is the largest battery recall in consumer electronics history and is expected to cost Dell upwards of $300 million. (That ought to cause some "overheating" within Dell's corporate headquarters.)
