My business is switching over to printing out our own labels for about 50 packages per day. We heard that thermal printers are the cheapest long run, but we know just about nothing about thermal printers.

Could somebody explain the economics of thermal printers for printing shipping labels with postage vs inkjets and laser?

I have home premium but I'm thinking of upgrading to ultimate. I really want to know if the upgrade is worth the money. It's pretty high, I think, but if it's a lot better then I might want to get it. I just don't really know anyone who has tried Ultimate as most of my friends are still on XP. Thanks.

I bought P5K-E of Asus because it was just the perfect motherboard (from my point of view and because of the Intel P35 chipset). I was looking forward to buy Nvidia 8600 GTS from XFX, but later I discovered this strange (for me) dual GPU techonoly (where you attach two graphic cards together) then I discovered that SLI was for nVidia and Crossfire for ATI.

Then I thought, I could upgrade later to SLI if I get interested enough. Then the big screw up, I bought the mobo, I haven't bought yet the graphic card (thankfuly), yet, but if I want to dual it, then I couldn't do it with two nVidia cards on this CrossFire mobo, I mean, after heareing so much NOs on ppl asking the same question (using one over the other).

I know this doesn't look like a question, seems like I just looking for some confort words, but here are the real questions:

Are ATI really bad graphic card?
Can I use one Nvidia card on this crossfire mobo?

Ok, It seems that many people are saying the geforce 9 series is coming out in Nov. I wanted to upgrade my pc for Call of duty 4 when it comes out in Nov. I realy dont wantot have to pay 400+ for a 8800 gts and in a month the 9 series comes out. I want to upgrade my computer so it last me at LEAST 2 years. So what i wanted to do is upgrade my pc and then just get the 8600 gts for like 150. Now what i wanted to do is prob nov/dec i would want to get the 9800.

I would get like the Intel Core 2 Duo E6850 Conroe 3.0GHz, good mother board, memory and so on. BUT I heard the geforce 9 series will not be using PCI Express x16 but a better kind of slot meaning i would need to buy new motherboard and possably memory and/or new cpu. SO if you happen to know anything about that please tell me! IF so i will just buy the best graphics card for like 150 and a little memory and wait till dec. PLEASE give all the info youi can give! THX

I have a ASUS P5K Deluxe Motherboard and there are 2 fans that are on the case it is in. In the manual it says if you are using a Core 2 Duo processor (I am) then connect the fan to the Chasis Fan 1 connector. The problem is there are 2 fans, and I dont know if I should connect one to the named connector, and one to another connector, or connect them both through the Chasis Fan 1 connector (there is an extension to do that)

Any ideas?

One fan is in the back one is in teh front

Gosh...I scanned through an article for RedHat/Fedora Directory Server. Can this perform as well as an MSWin domain controller? Roaming profiles for MSWin stations and supporting MS applications?

I'm happy with AVG antivirus, but AVG antispyware not so sure. I run a check just before i log off ( check for spyware) and there is always something to be deleted.
I think i need a good firwall, really don't like firwalls, but atleast it will stop the spyware getting on my laptop.
I want to delete the current AVG antivirus and download AVG antivirus and firwall and keep the AVG antispyware.
Just want your opinion on that. Or can you recommend anything better?
Thanks so much!

I was able to connect 3 weeks ago. I have since brought a new router (Buffalo) which is supposedly compatible with Vista and yet has problems installing the drivers. I have a usb adapter again supposedly compatible with Vista, yet fails to install properly "Windows encountered a problem... and then Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it. The device I am using is Buffalo WLI-U2-KG54L. Can anyone give me any ideas?

Hope so Thanks

Has anyone had problems selecting a different thumbnail screenshot from the one You Tube has picked? For the second time, they have selected one of my (text) captions, on a plain coloured background, instead of a picture image! They say you can select a different thumbnail by clicking on your choice in the 'edit video' page ... but this is clearly not working! According to You Tube, this process can take up to 6hrs; the previous edit took 2 weeks! ... and it looks as if my current one is following suit! I don't want to shorten my video in any way. Am I the only one with this problem?

I have a HP pavilion with windows 98. One day it just wouldn't turn on. When I pressed the power button, nothing happened: no lights or sounds or anything. About a week later I tried to turn it on again and the lights turned on, and I heard the computer running, but when I turned on the monitor, it said:
"Please check video cable connection." I made sure all the cables and wires were secure and in the right spot, but still nothing. I flipped the kill switch on the back of the CPU, but still nothing. I tried different outlets: nothing. I just need to turn on the computer so I can retrieve some files. The only way I know of to retrieve the files is to remove the hard drive and hook it up to my other computer, but I don't know how, and I don't want to spend money to get a professional to do it, so how can I get my computer to turn on right?
