I was talking to a friend about new mother boards. My PCI-E slot went bad on my computer and i really don't want to get a new board. He mentioned some thing about a PCI to PCI-E converter cards. I was wondering if anyone has heard about these? He said it is a card that goes into the PCI slot and then you are able to plug a PCI-E card into it. I hope yall have some answers!

I keep hearing that a Mac is more intuitive, easier to use, etc. Is that true, and what are the differences between the two? Also, how do I know if I have a PC or a Mac? I think I have a PC, and it's easy to use, so that's why I'm asking. Thanks;

I have this code:

if(!isset ($_SESSION [username] )
include("create.html");
exit();
?>

Apparently, there is something wrong with "include(...);"
the error is
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_INCLUDE in .. on line 3

This code worked fine on my original webhost, and now it doesn't work ???

Thanks in advance

I started my own computer repair, servicing, web design, etc. company. I am in need of some sort of software that can keep everything organized for me. I used to work at Circuit City firedog. They used something called ASTEA which you used to set up customers in your database. You got all their info, and it printed out a sheet with their info, services being done and could print stickers to put on the pcs.
I need something either online, or software that can connect to an online database so that me and my employees can access it from other places from our own pcs. I need to be able to schedule and maintain customer info.
It'd be great if, as an admin, I could also set up employee info on there too.
Thanks a lot.
Also, I'm a huge user of Microsoft products, such as Office, Expression, Accounting, etc. I heard something about SharePoint. Do you guys know if I can achieve what I need through SharePoint? I was told that it was for collaborating.
