How long did the Windows 7 Ultimate OS program download take, jeffmack?

After you'd done the download, what did you do with it?

Exec
I think it was a couple of hours. I followed instructions for burning a ISO file to DVD, which worked ok. Laptop wasnt booting from disc so needed to change boot order to DVD/CD first and off it went. Install seemed very quick. Only problem so far has been no sound. Searched google and seemed to be common problem with advice being to use the vista 64bit driver so did that and all ok. (so far)

Thanks jeffmack.

Since it does seem to be reliable, would you mind telling me the specific link for the Windows 7 Ultimate download?

Exec
I got the link with the key

32 bit: 32 bit Windows 7 Ultimate

64 bit: 64 bit Windows 7 Ultimate

Jeffyou always seem to have problems?for Christ sake go to the clinicwear a hoodie if necessary?

I need to buy a colour laser for work, mainly for documents we produce for clients. Ink jets are OK but the ink runs when wet, and we often use solutions or liquids in our rooms. I need something that is cheap to run and reliable, and possibly could be used for photographs - we do a lot of photographs of patient's retinas, so red / yellow used far more than other colours.

Any recommendations?

SC,
The multi-pack of four inks, used on the Epson printers, seem to be waterproof.
Took a chart with red and green candles and blue trenlines on a black background.
Wet a section of it and rubbed my finger on it. No smearing.
I'm using an Epsom SX200 with plain paper.
Might be a cheaper alternative.

ppaper a bit wavey but image unalered.

Looking for 2 things

1 what is the best Portable 2.5" 1TB or bigger Harddrive USB 2.0 powered, I've got Western Digital 320gb but think the are pricey. needs fast transfer speeds for playing Movies must work with DVD player etc what other makes are good and can be trusted

2 Looking for a second 24" Widescreen 2ms, HDMI Moniter 20,000 contract ratio, DVI, VGA HDMI connectors etc, already got the Viewsonic VX2433WM still a bit pricey IMO

Tyketto, apologies for not responding, but thanks - that's well worth knowing. I'm interested in how much those inks are to run compared to a colour laser.

SC,
No prob.
I,m on site sporadically .

Take a look at internet-ink.co.uk

The compatibles have a higher ink volume but I havn,t tried them.
There is a caution about mixing branded and compatibles.

SC: We have a Lexmark C522 colour laser network printer. It produces excellent print, but is expensive to run. Each of the four cartridges costs 60 or so. The result is that I haven't used it for months, most of my printing needs are met by the HP OfficeJet Pro L7600 which claims to be 50% cheaper to run than a colour laser. It also scans direct to PDF, FAXes, copies and beats as it sweeps as it cleans.

The upside of the Lexmark is that it is a PostScript printer, so easily interfaces with UNIX/Linux/Macs over Ethernet without getting embroiled in the dreaded Windows driver thang.

Thanks MM, that along with Tyketto's posts is a great help. 60 per cartridge is what I was worried about! I'll have a look at those HP's. Every printer we use bar one is HP, because they're just so reliable.

SC: A quick PS for you, given the use to which you intend to put the kit: the consultant surgeon who dealt with my eye problem (corneal ulcer) used an HP digital camera and injket printer to capture the condition of my eye at its worst. (I observed this with my other eye.)

Thanks MM, we use a specialised Canon digital camera, and want something that will produce a good printout. Given what you say, HP inkjet seems to be the way. Are your eyes sorted out now?

Santa brought me a Logitech LX8 Cordless Laser Mouse. Lucky me, except that I've never used any cordless stuff on my PC. Are there any security implications? Should I be worried that the kids next door will be watching my every key stroke? Or is it totally safe to use. TIA TOK

Yes, TOK. Keep those doors locked tight and those curtains well drawn!

Oh, and don't for God's sake post up any pictures of the kids next door or you'll get the site closed down!

looking to load some mp3's on a iPod classic 80gig,

anyone got any tips on the best way,

TIA

Why not download iTunes to your PC? Load the MP3s into iTunes and let it manage the iPod.
