I have been unplugging my ethernet cable from my desktop computer in order to use my laptop occasionally. Now the plastic tab part is about to fall off so I can't risk unplugging it from my desk top. I need to buy a separate ethernet cable (the yellow one from att) to use only for my laptop. Wireless internet is not an option I can afford. When purchasing an ethernet cable, what do I look for in the store? Will it say ethernet because I have looked in the store and see lots of cables but none that say ethernet. What would I look for?

Nearly all the PC guys that I work with claim that, all software issues aside, a computer's hardware gets slower with age. Does the hardware - such as CPU, memory, hard drive - really get slower as the years pass? Obviously due to the laws of nature, everything deteriorates, but will a 3 Ghz CPU eventually start performing more like 2 Ghz; will DDR2-800 RAM slow down to DDR2-667 over time; will my 7200 RPM hard drive start to act more like a 5200 RPM drive in years to come?

I have asked this question today but I have to ask it again. ******************************************************************* I bought Zoom Bluetooth Adapter and Jabra BT125 (wireless bluetooth headset) in order to make calls using Skype. Both devices seem work but Bluetooth adapter does not find headset (I tried both - standard windows way and Zoom software). I have XP, not Vista, so system is not a problem I guess. Do you know what's wrong? Could you advise me what to do? Thanks for your help !!!!!
