Before you start working with photo images on your computer (or even view them), you should really make sure that your video subsystem is capable and is displaying things correctly. These pages will assist you in adjusting your monitor by providing various test patterns. They also give a brief introduction to issues involved in calibrating a monitor
2.4GHz parabolic mesh dishes from Chinese cookware scoops & a USB WiFi adaptor! Called "WIFRY","WOKFI" or "WOKTENNA" (12"= 300mm diam) shows 12-15dB gain (enough for a LOS range extension to 3-5km)
allows you to control your computer with a simple remote, like the one you already use for your TV-set. It's very useful when you want to control a DVD or an mp3 player without having to stay at the keyboard.
Weekend Project Podcast: Make simple radios to listen too. These were made with materials that they could get their hands on and were small enough to carry around in a big pocket.
MIT professor Neil Gershenfeld talks about his Fab Lab -- a low-cost lab that lets people build things they need using digital and analog tools. It's a simple idea with powerful results:
Why is transforming furniture so alluring? What if you could simply reuse packaging as part of a product rather than sending away for disposal or recycling? Flat pack furniture is exactly what it sounds like: furniture that starts out entirely as sheets
powerful x86 virtualization (similar to VMWare) runs on Windows, Linux, Macintosh and OpenSolaris hosts and supports a large number of guest operating systems including but not limited to Windows (NT 4.0, 2000, XP, Server 2003, Vista), DOS/Windows 3.x, Linux (2.4 and 2.6), Solaris and OpenSolaris, and OpenBSD.
After years of endless diatribes from tech sites of all stripes, it would seem that the Power Supply has finally begun to receive its proper due as a key core component to any computer system.
