Lifebook S6510 - Part 3; Networking, Software And Drivers
Blog There is practically nothing on the Fujitsu support web site for it; a BIOS update, which was already installed on mine, and a driver update for Windows XP, which doesn't interest me because I'm running Vista.

Vista Vs. XP: The Final Retreat
Blog I've said many times before, I like using Vista, and I really want it to be as good as, or better than, XP. My Fujitsu Lifebook S6510 is running Windows XP Professional again, and I have no intention of spending any more time or effort on Vista...

Vista - Is It Some Sort Of Drug?
Blog Last night I decided that I probably had enough time to do that, so I swapped the XP drive out and the Vista drive in, and booted up the Fujitsu Vista Recovery DVD. I can't put my finger on it; it's not only the "Aero" user interface, and it's...

Linksys WRT350N Wireless-N Gigabit Router With Storage Link
Blog I suppose that this might become standard with Windows XP SP3, but I don't know that for sure. Anyway, I have installed that update on a couple of XP systems, and WPA2 then works just fine on them as well.

Desktop Linux For Small Business
Talkback I don't think it's realistic at this point to expect to be able to do absolutely everything XP can do, but you should be able to do most. I'm presently running Xandros (dual boot with XP) on my nine-year-old's pc.

2008-01-06 Vista Is A Downgrade.
Talkback The title bar of every window now looks 1.5 times the height that it was under XP and I can't change it. XP works perfectly totally fine. for some unexplicable reason so that if you need to go back there later you have to reclick that fine print...

Thoughts On Windows Driver Updates
Blog By that I mean, for example, that for my S6510, Fujitsu has driver lists for Vista and XP. Are the XP drivers better than the Vista drivers? Maybe, but that's not the only difference, and in some cases they use the same driver, and it has been...

Apple's Big Chance Begins At Home
Talkback Ok, I started with PCs many years ago and gradually worked my way through 95,98 and now xp. I've done the games, read the books and worn the t shirt, so what now. What now is music, pics and video, thats what I do now.

Wireless-N Networking And Linux
Blog With Windows XP Professional, it detects both, connects to the Wireless-N network with no problem using WPA2 security, and gives speeds ranging from 300 Mb/sec to 108 Mb/sec. After installing a new Netgear Wireless-N Dual Band Router (review), I...

More Pleasant Surprises With Ubuntu
Blog Then I kept finding more and more problems, until they finally became so serious that I had to give up and go back to XP. If all of that works, I'll keep Ubuntu on that one, and swap the S2110 back to the Windows XP Pro disk.jw 3/6/2008

Rupert Goodwins' Diary
Blog If you start to use Vista for any length of time, "you start to hate XP" apparently, and OpenOffice is best considered as an alternative to Microsoft Works "because it's only fair to compare stuff at the same sort of price point".

A Challenge To All Linux Users In The World
Blog Comment I do have another XP Pro client and a Win2K Pro client (my kids machines) so there will be plenty of clients to beat on both HServers. Trying to keep it all in the family, I downloaded it to my Windows XP SP2+ system.

2007-01-06. Vista Is A Downgrade. Part 3.
Talkback It worked perfectly fine under XP. As a workaround I am using the VLC player to watch TV on my PC and it doesn't play well at all and it doesn't record video well either. Especially any software I wrote that uses the Speech Recognition SDK 5.1 from...

Want Secure IE? Then Upgrade To XP...
Talkback Unfortunately that just isn’t true, if I inject code into firefox using a buffer overflow, I can get it to do pretty much whatever I like including download various malware apps. Don’t talk rubbish. "Firefox is not integrated with Windows", so what...
