  2. You could do a search for wifi antennas to increase the distance of the radio, but in your caase it sounds like you should look into the wireless card. Is it "built in". What is the capabilities? Also if the antena is detachable....... you could fabricate a jumper(s) so the antenas could be seperated to different areas closer to the area where you are going wireless. What is the floor/ceiling structure made of? This would block the 2.4 gHz signal. If you use the wireless machine upstairs mostly wire the router to the upstairs area with the downstairs machine connected via wire. M

  9. Randy coppers in New Zealand waste so much time surfing for porn while on the job that fully 20 per cent of police computer system capacity is devoted to storing the images, an official audit has revealed. The investigation, begun five months ago, found vast reams of sexually-explicit material, some involving violence or simulated violence, and some even involving bestiality. The material in question was discovered accidentally, during an investigation of alleged police misconduct unrelated to porn surfing. Staff hoarding images described by Police Commissioner Rob Robinson as "shockers" inclu
  10. There has been a lot of speculation as to when PCI Express (PCIe) will finally take over AGP for good. Even though there isn’t any performance difference between the two standards, PCIe is the standard of the future where game developers and GPU makers should be able to work on to bring in more realistic, and GPU intensive games with elevated bandwidth requirements to everyone’s personal setups.
