    Recording audio from a YouTube link?

    Is this possible? Is there a format it should be recorded to for purposes of copying it to a CD or DVD for later replay on a computer?

At my local HF, they had about 10 of them on the floor with an advertised special of $149.00. The coupon is for $99.00. I haven't unpacked mine yet but my friend says that his...

    Question for all web site developers.

    I have a small business. It is the remnant of a long time conventional business that had a dealership affiliation with a national manufacturer. For the last 10 years, I have not been a dealer for that company but I have existed on servicing equipment from a long time customer base that I was...

    Windows Live Mail vs Mozilla Thunderbird email client? Any opinions?

    I want to use an Email Client Program on my relatively new Win7 Laptop. I downloaded WLM 2009 for a friends XP laptop when OE quit working with his Hotmail Email. I found that it had quite a bit different user interface than OE had. I found that unnecessary and aggravating. Looking at a...

    I'm trying to get back into my Netgear 8 port router to re-enable the DHCP function before I put it away. I tried both connecting the computer to the inlet (internet) port and then to one of the 8 outlet ports. None of these connection attempts would bring up the configuration screen when I...

    Is anyone aware of any issues about Outlook Express communicating with Hotmail? I set up a friends laptop to receive his Hotmail email through OE. It worked fine for a short while. All of a sudden they quit communicating. There a couple of outgoing emails stuck in the 'outbox'. I brought...

    Anyone have a good recommendation for one? I just need a single sheet unit, not expensive sheet feeder type. The articulated lid lets you copy book pages easily. This electronic obsolescence stuff is really galling. I have finally just detached an HP 5p scanner and have marshaled to to go to...

    Motorola RAZRM 'mobile data' feature?

    New to this smartphone stuff. My question is, does leaving the 'mobile data' feature turned on constantly, consume battery life? As I am waiting for young son to come home from DC this Christmas, to give me lessons on what the heck to do with this phone, I have been leaving the 'mobile data'...

    You young guys need not read this.

    Any one using a natural prostate remedy with some degree of success? I have a prescription of FlowMax but do not want to use it. I'm already taking enough other stuff. On the other hand I am tired of having to get up multiple times during the night.

    Now I've stepped in it!

    Seems these days that keeping up with new technology takes more and more effort on my part but I've finally taken the fatal plunge; into the verge, so to speak. I just got my first smart phone! It is a Motorola RazrM. I did get a 32 gb memory card for it, as well. I'm sure that I will go...

    Smart Tabs?

    How come I do not see any mention of them anymore? Maybe I am just not looking in the right forum but a few years back they were the rage and they seemed to be talked about continuously. I got mine during that time, along with several friends, and I still swear by them.

    Question for anyone with mid '70's 302 log style exhaust manifolds (off the engine)

    Does anyone happen to have one of these off of the engine? I need someone to take a look and determine if there is enough meat to safely enlarge the drain plug hole for a 1/4 npt plug. If you do and can make that determination, you might also note and report how deep the iron threading surface...
