    New drivers for Surface Book and Pro 4

    May 30th, 2016 by

    MS recently released some new drivers for the Surface 4 Pro and Book.  For some reason this article’s headline only talks about the Book while the Surface 4 Pro shares most of the same hardware. I personally have only seen one Surface Book and didn’t like the keyboard. It was light gray and transparent letters. […]

    From here it looks like MS shot itself in the foot with W10 “Update”

    May 29th, 2016 by

    Kind of what we all expected: Users are turning off automatic Windows Updates just to avoid W10. As we all know, this is *NOT* *GOOD*… Unfortunately, I’ve read of some folks (including some I respect) advising the same thing. The crime here is that there are two simple products out there that will permanently (or […]

    An alternative to GWX Control Panel for stopping W10 Upgrade

    May 29th, 2016 by

    My personal favorite for ways to control or prevent auto W10 Upgrade is GWX Control Panel . Another contender is Steve Gibson’s “Never 10“. It’s simpler and fewer actions required. GWX, though has more options and is continually evolved as long as MS continue to change the rules, Anyway, here’s a video that shows how […]

    Is a second really a second Maybe not!

    May 28th, 2016 by

    Apparently, what we consider a second isn’t really a second. It seems that Atomic clock loose 1 nano second every month! Holy crap, Batman! This is a disaster! 🙁 Sometimes, I think that scientists have *WAY* too much time on their hands! 🙂 All of our clocks are wrong

    Whew! Senate Bill to Require Breaking Encryption looks Dead.

    May 28th, 2016 by

    When it comes to breaking encryption on smart phones, I’m squarely in the middle. While I understand the need, I’m very leery of granting *ANY* government agency blanket authority. I’m happy with the current process that the government has to go through. Anyway, looks like a proposed bill was floated in the U.S. Senate to […]

    May 27th, 2016 by

    When you look at some of the systems you have to work with, you can get the idea that you are behind the curve. At the hospice I support we are finally in the process of replacing out Windows 2000 server domain. I thought we were bad until i read this. This is our government […]

    Windows 10 will require more RAM.. 2GB! OMG!

    May 26th, 2016 by

    This is an interesting article in that it states that MS will consider 2 GB of RAM a minimum to run W10 instead of 1 GB. First off, has anyone been able to run it *NOW* with 1GB and not want to smash it to pieces? Second, when was the last time you saw a […]
