I'm sort of remembering something about disk response speed and gigabit networking... I vaguely recall somthing like gigabit being faster than most drives can handle, so 100BaseT …

I'll probably just stick with non-network drives then. I'm sure a NAS like yours is great for many things, but I shudder at the thought of opening 500 MB Photoshop files over a 100…

D-link has this box. Takes one ATA hard drive internally and up to 2 more external USB drives. Connects via gigabit ethernet or wifi.

I have weird question: The set up: My iMac connects to my wireless network via built-in Airport. I have a PC running (you guessed it) XP; I only use the PC to do win apps and tes…

airport and ethernet are separate connections, you can have them both running and used at the same time.

Can anyone enlighten me as to why a foreign name is appearing on the list of my active wireless networks ??? When I click on the airport icon in the menubar, it lists my network na…

What that is, is another person has a wireless access point and when your wireless card scans for access points it sees all the avaliable ones that are broadcasting an ssid. The f…

As shiff says, if it's just showing up as an available network, you have no real concerns-except maybe to change your own network to some non-default channel. That may even get yo…

I changed the channel my router uses and it seems to have resolved one issue and helped to ease some of my concerns. This "Cornerstone" that kept appearing was using channel 11. …

Is there any software tools one can use to view who is accessing or using a wireless network?

Check out MacStumbler. You can probably find it at MacUpdate.com and/or VersionTracker.com

I'm working on an informal newspaper/newsletter right now and we're looking at various printing options. I was wondering if there existed reams of 8.5x11 paper that is similar to n…

If you go to your local newspaper print centre they will give you the end of the paper reel. They will go through dozens of reels each day. Just cut the paper to size.

Go to an art store and buy a newsprint sketchpad and cut it to size.

He needs reams full - I don't think manual cutting is an option. I would contact a paper company and see if they have seen anything

this is a hypothetical question. if i had two linux box running openmosix on a linksys integrated router/hub and i run both of those boxes through ssh from my powerbook. would it …

1) Probably not if all you're doing is managing the boxes. If you're transferring files to or from them, then 10/100 trumps a (theoretical) max of 54Megabits per second all the ti…

Spend some time looking through the back-threads of this forum, and you'll see that there's already LOTS of information about each of the issues you have raised. I'm not big on OS…
