so u mean like a scam to make regular users who are not in the technology loop upgrade to this becuase they think its a completely new program?
hehe had to day it
[edit]
after checking the blog, these new features will be completely useless to me becuase all i need is a list of online/offline, and webcam/audio/file transfer support.

well, if its an improvement to hotmail, then they might be able to get people from gmail back. depending on how its made. i still dont think, unless they make it amazingly good, that i will change back to msn or hotmail.

for some odd reason, it sounds like msn messenger. all i see is a new way to share photos and documents..... if someone could enlighten me about this, it would be helpful.

if you want the flash script for the animation, you will have to crack it, which can not be done without using inappropriate measures.

exactly. if you already have spare drives around the house, just put them in. you can have a different drive for your wifes back-up if you want, without having to spend money on a case.

nope, nothing is limited, i just have 2 slots though, and the max i can add (because im buying a specific laptop but upgraded) is 2 gig on their site. i dont need more anyways.
[edit]
i can add 2 gig, i just dont have the $$ or need to.

yea... but i want to have them both synced up with the same data constantly. the problem now is that the internet at the other location is not dial-up (**** people shut it down lol). so now i think ill just have her export the stats to her usb drive, then load them up on the other pc. simplest way.

the max is 1 gig, which is probably what i'll do. im not gonna be using it for hardcore gaming. i should add that in the top post. its going to be a work pc, possibly running a few games that have been running on my 2.Ghz machine. also, these games arn't high end lol

gamehead, you confused me lol.
to clear up what i said before, you set up your hamachi network. once that it done, you set up a proxy server on one of your pcs. as you know, proxy servers forward all trafic through that computer, so you set your internet to go though that proxy server.
if u need a diagram
[your pc] ------- Hamachi tunnel ---- [other pc on hamachi network running free proxy ] ------->internet
your forcing your date through the hamachi tunnel, instead of directly out to the internet

awww why did you leave. there is so much here that your missing
btw, if we do lan party, someone will have to tell me what games, cuz like, i have none lol.
0 -
yea, u can use it to brose the net securely, you have to set up freeproxy and run a proxy server down the secure tunnel created by hamachi. you then forward all your trafic through that one server on your lan, using hamachi.

Im going to get myself a laptop soon, and i would like to have a vpn tunnel that i can use for those days i need to connect to my home network shares, or use a secure tunnel over the internet from my location. i have found a few options, i just need an opinion for which would be the best.
Hamachi - makes virtual secure wan networks, needs a central cerver to make connections (so far its working fine with me, server could possibly go down is a down side)
ipig - ill set up my own server, connect to it using the client, looks like it works better for forwarding traffic, not sure if it connects to network shares.
open vpn - no idea how to set it up, still waiting for the security now episode about it lol
at the moment, i think Hamachi is the best bet, but i dont know what to do if the central server dies. i could use ipig as a back-up, but im not in the mood for 5 network adaptors lol. also, i have to forward all the ports through the hamachi tunnel. just wondering what your opinions are.

Buy External Hard Drive OR Case and Drive separately?
in Hard Drive and Removable Media
Posted · Edited by sven
well, im not sure about which type of case for external driver, but get a maxtor hard drive. i got one of those in my pc and its running perfectly. i bought a western digital drive 6 months ago and it seems to be dieing on me. its making odd noises lol. should have bought a maxtor.
[Edit]
the icybox does not seem to be hot-swappable (according to the site), the other site says it clearly that it is. choose the drive that does what you want and need. i personaly would go with the Venus becuase of the hot-swap.
