Good question.... If there is any impediment to airflow I've never noticed it. FWIW this stuff also makes pretty good speaker grilles....

I'm interested in hearing what people use for audio with their computers... 1) Sound card? 2) Speakers? 3) Media Player Software? In particular I'm interested in how many people have their computers connected up with high end non-PC audio gear ... stereos, HT audio, etc. And...

I will not be making the upgrade to Windows 7 on my personal machines. My systems are presently rock stable on XP and run day and night without any issues at all. My logic: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it!" What I'm asked to do by others might well be a different story. Unlike with...

I see this is a German thing.... but if it gets over here, I would certainly like to see what Canada's Privacy Commissioner has to say about this. If you run a "whois" on any of the IPs listed in uTorrent it usually only gets you to the ISP not the individual. That being the case I'm...

Hardware is actually a small part of what I do. Most of it is software, maintenance and supplies (network cables, ink, toner, etc.). So I have an arrangement with a local computer store. I can either go in in person and buy at a modest discount or I can send my customers in with a list. My...

Yes putting filters on your case's air intakes will help quite a bit. But then you will have to clean the filters. I use Scotchbrite pads as air filters on most of my machines. (Image below) They're like 79cents for two at the grocery store and you can wash them and re-use them many times...

:D I can ususally tell that because their smoke detectors won't be working either :eek: Seriously though.... Yep, some people will neglect anything for as long as they can. So yep I see it all the time. Get a call, about false reboots, head on over, blow 5 pounds of dust out of their...

Cooking is a pleasure, not a chore, my friend. Just one suggestion... if you want good flavor and nutritian from your nicely prepared meal... keep it the heck away from microwave ovens. Darned things can suck the flavor out of anything.

Actually on a Mars mission the highest radiation levels would likely be right close to Earth. Mars, moon or Sirius, we have to go through the Van Allen Belt to get there. It's probably the biggest single obstacle to routine space travel, right now. Sending people through this region is quite a...
