I want to create my own petsite. I have drawn many wonderful pets and have so many ideas. I know how to make layouts for a website. However I don't know how you make it so that people who sign up can keep their pets. I know all that magic isn't done by javascript.

I want to make something like Neopets. Or Subeta. Or Jinopets.

Been looking for a simple NAS device for the home network that I could serve a USB drive through. All the ones I've seen so far run $100 which seems sorely overpriced for an ethernet port and a USB socket... especially considering the price of home routers these days, which are probably more technically sophisticated.

I just bought a 100gb Hard Disc Drive Multi-Media Player. In order to get it work properly and show files on a TV it is supposed to be formatted in FAT32. However, Windows XP only offered me the option to format in NTFS and I foolishly clicked 'ok'. The drive works fine on the PC but when connected to TV it states that it has no files on it. Can anyone tell me (in simple terms if possible), how I reformat it back into FAT32 in Windows XP (even though XP doesn't offer this option via the usual 'right click, select 'format' route')? I have no need to worry about losing data because I only put some files on it to test. I'll be happy simply to fully format it again. Thanks to anyone who can help me. Tony

OK, I need to know what motherboard and operating system you're using and any other problems I should look aout for such as RAM compatability.

I've been looking at upgrading - possibly to an EVGA mobo and a quad core CPU.......and then upgrade to Vista home premium.

This is a PC that has to do everything - act as a TV, DVD player, games machine, word processor, graphic design/ media editor and of course, music player.

I'm currently running a P5N-E SLI mobo (which doesn't support more than 2Gb of RAM as claimed by ASUS - system won't boot....locks up at POST and can't enter BIOS) 2Gb Kingston Value RAM, e6420 Core 2 Duo overclocked @ 20%.

Your knowledge and help will be much appreciated

First, my father-in-law is a pack rat. He has one of EVERYTHING. He’s in the process of moving so he called to say that he was bringing a computer over for the kids (3 and 1 years old). Turns out it’s an Apple IIc. I have no idea what to do with it. Do I donate it to a museum, sell it to a antique collector, or do I set it up for the kids to “push buttons” before they learn on a working computer? The computer was given to him for free when it was new and the boxes are still sealed......it’s never been opened. I don’t know what to do with the thing. To make it worse I use Windows and I don’t know the first thing about an Apple. Any thought?

By 2107, are new, astounding technologies, and not only in the galloping computer world, apt to leave primitive aspects of Western society choking in the dust?
Who knows what's gonna happen, but remember that a hundred+ years ago, such commonplace things today--automobiles, computers, airplanes, nuclear weapons, open-heart surgery, transplants, stem cell research, Internet, telephones, cell phones, DVDs, CDs, space travel, etc.--were scarcely being thought of as they are in 2007. A hundred years from now--share your boldest ideas for that year, 2107
