Hi. Do I have to use 1and1 name servers if i have 1and1 as my domain provider?
Nevermind. I noticed that I'm asking the same question every time the ip changes. I deleted 99% of my site anyway as I was not happy with it and just waiting to feel productive and redo it.

i remember the credit card logon thing.

Needed some time to test some of this stuff otherwise I would have posted earlier. Some of these products are beyond their useful life but some are still ok. 2 weekends ago on a Sunday night I was going home after visiting some friends and noticed various junk by the curb of many homes about a quarter mile from where I get on the Parkway (major highway in NJ). For many years I haven't wasted time looking for computer junk so I decided to give it another try. If you see my previous trash find run http://forums.guru3d.com/showthread.php?t=275332 you will see that I did get somewhat lucky. My friend said that the only reason someone would throw all of this out would be a pissed off wife not liking her husband's hobby. I disagree for one reason. All hard drives listed below were formatted blank. And actually the Lacie 750 GB external drive was almost never used. SMART data shows 24 power ups and 0 hours of use. Not sure what the deal with that is but I tested the drive with several utilities and it tested perfect with no bad clusters and SMART data shows everything ok!

So anyway here is a list of stuff I found out on the curb by ONE yes a single house in Linden NJ.

Dell XPS M1710 Core 2 Duo 2.3 GHZ 17 inch 1920x1200 laptop (tested working screen has some spots probably from getting wet or stored below freezing temp)
Lacie Neil Poulton design 750GB external USB backup drive (Samsung SATA2 drive inside, tested working)
Seagate 300GB IDE desktop drive (tested working)
Seagate 160GB SATA laptop drive (tested working)
WD 40GB SATA desktop drive (tested working)
Syba SD-CF-IDE-A CF to IDE adapter (tested working)
1GB IBM CF microdrive (tested working)
Corex CardScan GO business card scanner (tested not working, no drivers, software)

Linksys Cisco WET610N Dual-Band Wireless-N Gaming and Video Adapter (wireless bridge, tested working)
Linksys PPS1UW Instant Wireless EtherFast USB Print Server
Linksys WET200 Wireless-G Business Ethernet Bridge (powers up and I am able to attach it to a wireless network but no connection on the ethernet ports when connected to my router)
Linksys Cisco WET54GS5 Wireless-G Ethernet Bridge with 5 port switch (bad power supply but works perfect with another one)
UPDATE: Iomega REV-SATA 35GB backup drive with 2 cartridges (some water damage took drive apart and cartridges and drive was damaged and rusted)
Iomega Network Hard Drive 160GB (Hitachi 164GB drive inside, tested working although drive has reallocated sectors)
Logitech MX5500 Bluetooth 2.0 EDR adapter (tested working)
ID Innovations USB MU-X2-6 Magnetic Stripe Track 1 and 2 credit card reader (tested working)
Dell USB optical mouse (tested working)
Dell MPF82E laptop floppy drive module (useless because it has to fit a particular dell laptop and not the one above)
Netgear P5101 parallel port ethernet print server
Intel Pro 1000 MT pci network card (tested working)
Belkin serial to USB adapter
PS2 to USB keyboard/mouse adapter
IOGEAR USB Ethernet print server
Sharp DV-RW2U DVD Recorder (no remote, tested working playing dvd and vcd)
Seiko Smart Label Printer 450 (tested working, needs new labels)
6 - 512MB DDR2 memory modules (4 of 6 tested not working, will test again on another machine in the future)
1 - 2GB SODIMM DDR2 laptop memory module (tested working)
2 - 1GB SODIMM DDR2 laptop memory modules (1 tested working)
various ethernet patch cords, dvi and vga monitor cables, esata and usb cables

America is a country of throwing away good stuff LOL!

how about this guys, what if I can find some kind of utility that lets me customize a set of programs that load on startup. That ultimate boot cd i mentioned earier does that and it boots up a menu with these various utilities and then it loads the appropriate os for them. I believe the main os for that cd is linux but then it loads something else and depending on the utility chosen from the menu it can load linux or dos. I'm not sure if there is a possibility of loading a winpe with that as they also have a windows boot cd version with different contents.

Well, that is not exactly what i was looking for but it is a little similar. This one will detect what bootable partitions are available. what i am looking for is something that will let you combine many bootable cds into one with a menu listing them. something like this http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/

not proportionally faster.
since 100mbps to 1gbps = 58 seconds which is about a minute.
the 300 mbps is supposed to be 3 times faster but it isn't at 48 seconds. for it to be 3 times faster it would have to download at about 20 seconds but it does it at 48 seconds.

1gbps to 1gbps is 20 seconds which also is not what it should be.

So this brings up something interesting. I never had a known brand of memory go bad. And I'm starting to think that if a merchant describes the item as OEM or in OEM packaging then they actually could be selling fakes. The 32gb Sandisk uhs1 class 10 microsd I just got came in retail packaging so I'm 99.9% sure its the real one.

Wow! Lately there is much news about North Korea with them testing nukes, Dennis Rodman and now Pirate Bay.
