  • Small Business Server 2003

    We got one of these for our office and it is just enough different that it is a little confusing to me. I kind of lost track of how Windows and Exchange worked with Windows NT and Exchange 4.0, so I date myself. Fortunately, “Microsoft”:http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/sbs/2003/default.mspx has Technet which has lots of free information about it…

  • Concierge.com Shanghai Restaurants

    “Concierge”:http://www.concierge.com/destination/shanghai/eating is the Conde Nast Traveler web site. Aside from T8, they have some other great recommendations including 3 on the Bund. I’ve been there and while the food was very good, the main thing was the amazing view of the Bund. Other ones that I need to check out are “Creek Kitchen”:http://creekart.cn which is…

  • ANA

    Wow, I flew “ANA”:http://www.anaskyweb.com/us/e/travelservice/index.html business class from Shanghai to Tokyo, it sure is luxurious. The seats are nice and firm. (I sure wish United would upgrade theirs) and they reline to just about flat, but 130 degrees down, so not quite flat. Also they have those cool movie on demand systems that Cathay also has.…

  • Media-Motor only with Yahoo Sniffer

    Talk about an insidious threat, Media Motor hijacks web addresses like “alexa.com”:http://alexa.com by installing as a domain thingy in the registry. It is very hard to find. Ad Aware didn’t find it, Spybot doesn’t find it. Only Yahoo’s toolbar (which is Webroot) found it. The behavious is strange, it gives you pages that sort of…

  • Linksysinfo on Linksys firmware projects

    “Linksysinfo”:http://www.linksysinfo.org/portal/forums/forumdisplay.php seems to be the place where all the various firmware projects are discussed. I’ve used DD-WRT and it worked OK, but when I upgraded our WRT54G to HyperWRT Beta 21, it completely bricked it, so beware. Other projects I haven’t tried include Svearsoft, EWRT, HyperWAP. Also there is the MustDie Firmware for WAP54Gs. Another…

  • Link WAP54G V3

    We have a bunch of these APs Linksys.com – Support/Technical Support/Downloads WAP54G – Wireless-G Access Point . One thing is the use of “hyperwap”:http://www.hyperwap.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=53 on it to give it more features. This is a version of Hyperwap based on the 3.04 firmware that is the latest from linksys. Apparently the DD-WRT firmware “works”:http://www.hyperwap.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=53&p=2 with both…

  • Think Secret

There are a bunch of things happening: * This tuesday, we should see the 2nd generation nano and a wide screen iPod coming out.
