Do you like it, or do you wish you had a different kind? What kind do you wish you had? And why do you say this?

I have comcast internet with a motorola modem and a belkin router. They have been working without problem for almost 2 years. The network shows up on the list of available networks, but it doesnt connect automatically, and when I try to connect manually, it just sits and tries to connect for several minutes and gives up. When I go unplug both and plug them back in, the laptop connects right away. Repairing the wireless card doesnt work, it disables and enables the card and still can't connect. How do I fix it?

I'm in the process of purchasing a laptop for my wife. She will use it for checking email, internet access, and perhaps school if she decides to go back to get her MBA in the near future.

My choice of processors are all AMD processors:

Athlon TK-53@1.7ghz
Turion TL-56@1.8ghz
Turion TL-60@2.0ghz
Turion TL-64@2.2ghz

First question: Which processor would you suggest I get? The TK-53 would probably suffice, but I want something that is still useable 4 or 5 years from now.

Other features:

Operating System: Windows Vista Premium
Hard Drive: 160 GB
Memory: 2GB Dual Channel DDR2
Display: 17" High Resolution Wide Screen
Video Card: ATI RADEON Xpress1270 HyperMemory
Drive: CD / DVD writer (DVD+/-RW Drive)
Sound: ExpressCard Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio Sound Card

Second question: Is this computer sufficient for some someone who wants to check email, surf the web, and do term papers for class?

Thanks in advance for your help!!

I'm considering ditching the clunky local telephone service for Cable. Sooooo, I have 2 questions:
1. If I select a cable-computer connection for Internet, I know I need another modem (which the cable company is cheerfully ready to rent you). Do you need to make any software changes to your computer settings?
2. If I convert to cable telephone, can I keep my current telephone number? I've been using it for over 30 years.

I have windows xp pro. Under Disc Clean up I can compress old windows files. I am looking for ways to speed up my PC even if its just a little. Is compressing old Microsoft files safe? And if I need to access them later does it just uncompress them on its own etc. I know this is mainly used to free disc space but I have over 250GB free space left. But the more free space on your hard drive the faster the PC is thats what I found out after removing 10GB of unneeded data the PC runs a little better.

What are your thoughts.

I have recently begun a project experimenting with Microsoft codename 'Longhorn' which is a o/s Microsoft were working on before they decided to ditch it.

I have got the o/s up and running and its quite impressive.Its like a hybrid of XP and Vista.

Does anyone know of a site or useful forum which offers any support ?

Microsoft offers no support as its not recognized as one of their o/s as they ditched it.

I would like to implement IE7 and WMP11 amongst other things. I have tried installing it from the MS download site to no avail.
I only seem to be able to find IE7 for XP. Does anyone know where I can find a download for IE7 Vista as I feel this may work.

It seems to be running IE6 at the moment, hence I am using firefox at present.

Please if anyone could help with this and any other useful info. it would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance

When this technology becomes a standard for information distribution (like cellphones of today for mobile communications) one of the main risks is noise (non-information like advertisements and other exploitives). The main reason the internet is so saturated with noise is because it is dynamic, but so is information. So, how can the restrictions (to prevent noise from developing), without hampering information growth and distribution, be implimented?
