    I am, too.

    I have been a Firefox guy for a long time, but I have recently started trying out IE 10. I get better results on some web sites for reasons that I don't understand, Firefox had started...

    Thanks, Shinma. My system had installed it and restarted without issue, but I went ahead and uninstalled it anyway-no sense in doing otherwise.

    I am absolutely backing up the entire drive.

    I thin it may be Acronis as well. I actually tried deleting the hidden partition by hooking the cloned drive on to my Win 7 machine under USB, but no...

    I have stayed away from SSD so far. It doesn't mean that I haven't lusted after one, but maybe it would be best for me to wait a while-price will come down, things will settle in. I do best staying...

    Good deal. That is what you get with older software sometimes, in spite of the talk about backwards compatibility. Making the leap to a Vista or a Windows 7 (or beyond) can cause real issues.

    I bought a Fujitsu Scansnap years ago. Sheet fed at approximately your requirements. Folds up to be about the size of a football on the desk. It has been very reliable. My old model is about $415...

    It may well be the wireless component of the router rather than your laptop. Can you try the laptop on another wireless network and see if it has a problem?

    I assume you have done the usual...

    Are there other machines accessing the wireless, and if there are, do they have the same problem?

    Since your motherboard doesn't seem to support PWM for the case fans-have you considered undervolting two 80 mm case fans, if the fans running at regular voltage are too loud for you? They won't turn...

    +1 on that. I have had both consumer class and business class laptops for work, and none of the business class ones have let me down. Not so with the consumer ones. The construction on the business...

    I have not test driven Windows 8. But from all the reviews that I read, I am wondering whether it is sort of like Vista-one to skip and wait on the next one. In full disclosure- I have windows 7...

    I did do the downgrade to 10.3.XX-time will tell.

    Don't know why I can seem to run the latest and greatest. I am fine with the older versions, though.

    I don't know whether it is just FF 17 or not, but I am having more than occasional trouble getting FF to close. It closes on the screen, but when I go to reopen it, nada. Task Manager says it is...

    Sorry you are having the problem. Did your IT fellow try any third-party software to open them? If you can find out, it would help to know what was tried.

    +1 on Midknyte's suggestion. I have trouble with Java updates sometimes, and going to the source is the path of least resistance by far.

    Yeah-Adobe Flash is crashing my Firefox with some regularity on my 64-bit Windows 7 machine. I have disabled it, but then I have no Flash. I guess I will go over to IE until a later version comes out.
