Now... do you know of a good (cheap) source of LVDS panels?

Why not a cheaper model with a USB/Serial adapter? Granted it wouldn't be a huge savings, but it'd be a little bit. Out of silly curiosity, would it be in range of a bluetooth connection from the supervisor's PC? A decent bluetooth/serial adapter would be significantly cheaper and more...

Is there a specific program you're using to communicate with the irrigation controller, or is it just hyperterm sort of stuff?

Personally I use a program called EditPlus. It doesn't really matter, though, so long as the program has decent auto-formatting options (mostly regarding tabbing) and good syntax highlighting. I can't even begin to count the number of times syntax highlighting has helped me figure out what's...

Ok... the Toshiba DLP projector on the Best Buy PDF, page 11. I'm trying to look up that particular model and having no luck. Other sites are linking me to the TDP-T9U, I would suppose because it has the same picture. Can anybody give me either some reassurance that this is the T9U or give...

I don't have any problem applying pressure, I just lack an instrument with which to apply pressure in such a tight space. Also, I'm not sure exactly what I'm supposed to be doing (the article says to pull the clip towards me, is this what I want to do?) because I've never done this and I can't...

So my girlfriend's 15" aluminum powerbook caught the click of death last weekend. Bought a replacement hard drive and I've been trying to follow this set of instructions for opening up the laptop and swapping drives. Looked like no big deal before I tried it, but I'm getting stuck at the last...

A further shortcut! Now I don't have to change the database, excellent. Thanks, guys.

Are you sure about the missing parenthesis? I count the right number. And yes, I know they're not needed. That's what Access did to the query, though, so I thought (hoped) it might be happier. I think I just now made significant progress, though. It appears that OLE thinks "size" is a...

I've got a client's website here written in ASP and connecting to an Access database. Their old host allowed ODBC connections, but they moved to a new host that only supports DSN-less OLE connections. Changing the site from using the ODBC DSN to the OLE connection string should have been as...

I read that he found someone consistently using his wireless connection that he'd like to cause problems for, or at least find out more information about, not just that he noticed a rogue DHCP entry and would like to make sure no more of them show up.

The single greatest Java resource is the Java API. Bookmark it, save it locally, hell, print out a copy and put it under your pillow if you have to. Learn to love it.

Start logging his data if it's passing through your network. Using a combination of social engineering and likely stupidity on his part I'm sure you can do some damage.

I've got a system that I'm trying to build that's using an Adaptec 2400A RAID controller. When I boot it and hit CTRL+A to go to the RAID controller setup, it says "SMOR missing" and then does nothing else. I found this PDF that has instructions on how to reset the NVRAM, and also how to do a...
