... I disagree. Bill H. demoed a shop computer with these specs and I found it to be sluggish, and constantly tapping the virtual memory after opening Firefox...
... OK. Would like to see those boxes. As for the boxes I built, they work good for me. In fact, I'm using one of the boxes right now. Firefox is open with...
I posted a notice on Craigslist for anyone who wants to create a cool animation featuring the word "ByteWORKS". There's a free tool called "Phun" that (Josh?)...
... I am in absolute favor of researching the idea of purchasing PCs from WITS, or EPC or other computer re-sellers that sell "naked" PCs. I called EPC in St....
Let me just go ahead and get this out of the way now: If we can find a viable and sustainable means to support the continued purchase of hardware from an area...
Random thoughts on the subject. What about ByteWORK Enterprise activity? Do we intend to continue to try to sell computers to the public? Would any of these...
I have built a few of these machines. I'll put two of them on the shelf where the graduate machines are (next to the bag with the T-shirts.) Regards, - Robert...
ByteWorkers, Check out the new browser Google Chrome. It is so fast even on old slow machines. I think you may want to make it the default browser for the...
I love Chrome as well. But I have noticed problems with it, particularly with the facebook website (popular for almost all students). And I am disappointed, I...
... I wasn't before but I am now. I had cloned the same Debian image onto two different machines and did an 'apt-get upgrade' on one. When it finished I did...
These machines do not have built-in wifi nor room enough to put in a full-height PCI card. So I picked up two different USB wifi sticks at BestBuy to try out....
Excellent! $40 is a lot. We couldn't make much money reselling them. I'll check on a dealer to see if we could get a cheaper price. ... From: Robert Citek...
I put both of the laser pointers in the front desk, 2nd drawer. I recommend that we get into the habit of putting them in the drawer after every class. --Nate...
Is there an official network share that the front-desk computer and the computers in the classroom can see? It can be a Windows-only share, because I'm only...
$40 seems to be about the lowest price for any USB wifi device, unless you go to eBay[1]. Also be careful with the Belkin one. It has to be v4001 as earlier...

... Steve, Do you think that we would have more leverage with our grant writers if we would double or triple the amount of computers and classes that we teach...
Nate, It isn't a question of having leverage with the grantors. BWorks itself made the decision to be self sufficient in regard to operating costs. I wouldn't...
Finally did some poking around and it looks like pfSense's default config needs some tweaking. Will attend to it next time I'm at the shop. -mej- ... [Non-text...
Wunderbar. FWIW, during the cwelug meeting on Sunday, we were experiencing some bizarre networking issues in the workshop area. Specifically, towards the end...
I should mention that I installed the security camera system last weekend. The DVR is on the network so that the bike side can also view the cameras--live and...
I won't be at Byteworks this Saturday (13th). Dave's scheduled to teach the Impress class. I told some of the regular kids to stop by early on Saturday (9 or...
... What do you have as being assigned 192.168.3.5? At this point it might be easier to reassign that one since the DVR and two client machines have been...

Pfft. I've put the networks spreadsheet out in Google Docs land... Bill has suggested I not send the link to the list, so if'n you want it, I guess you'll have...
