I don't know if that was that particular family guy, but the one where he says "I didn't fart until I was 25!" He's just sitting there and a fart rips... "What the hell was that?…

According to my Preferences, my IP address is 10.0.1.13, which obviously is not my real IP address, since this is the address given by the router. Before I had my router I used to…

Your router is doing its job by hiding your computer from the Internet. If you want to expose it so that others can browse through it, you'll need to set up a "DMZ." Depending on…

Well, you wouldn't necessarily have to put the computer in a DMZ. He could specify a particular port for people to access the Public share, then set the router to forward such por…

Quote: Originally posted by ghporter: Valid point. Most people who use DMZs seem to want to host a variety of services-games, file servers, etc.-all at the same time, w…

You have to go into your router settings and forward TCP Port 548 to the local IP address of your computer, in your case 10.0.1.13. People on the internet would then access your co…

Is airport express the same as a wireless router? Like if I have DSL on my desktop, can I log on, on my desktop and the airport express sends out the signal? I know it may sound …

Yes, it's a wireless router. Plug the cable from your DSL modem into its ethernet port, and you're connected. Follow the instructions in the book for how to configure it; there a…

How's that for an informative subject line? ;-) Anyway, I need to hire an expert RealBasic developer to make a RSS creation and management system for my company. In many ways, it…

Is RealBasic a requirement? I mean, why not Java, or any other language?

Yes, RealBasic is a requirement. I need to use RealBasic for many reasons, including cross-platform compatibility.

What are the reasons? I can't think of a better portable platform than java.

Actually, it's because I need to learn RealBasic for another project -- so I'd like all my apps to be in the same language.

>What are the reasons? I can't think of a better portable platform than java. I can. Java apps feel icky (IMO) the interface is a little off, the way it starts is a little off …

Yeah, same here. To me, Java apps just don't feel like "real" software (no pun intended).

OT (sorry) Are RB apps real compiled apps on all platforms, or are they like old VB apps which are interpreted...? Are they slow?

I'm pretty sure RealBasic is a compiled language, since (if I recall) you have to create different executables for each platform you want to run it on. So it doesn't seem to be int…
