HP you Suck
It all started when I had to send a deskjet back to HP to get fixed. They didn’t fix it because it was under waranty so they sent me a new printer the printer didn’t have back cover, so they tech for HP told me to send the printer back to them. This was on 10/23/08. I sent them the printer on 10/27/08. I was the stupid person that didn’t write down the tracking number that was on the preprinted label. So I could have a record of the tracking number.
On the original tracking number it shows that the printer got scanned at the Syracuse hub on 10/27/08 at 7:30 PM. I don’t have a printer but the only thing I have now is a back cover. FEDEX was no help either. Why can’t you do a search on an address that the package was pickup from. So frustrating this is. Thanks HP you could originally told me that you were able to send me the back cover and I didn’t have to send the printer back out to you.

IBM R400 Laptops with BartPE and Ghost
We got a bunch of new laptops at work and I had to create a new ghost image for them. I couldn’t use our network boot disk because it didn’t have NIC drivers for it so I ended up creating a BartPE CD that has ghost 8 on it and all the SATA and NIC drivers. I think this is a much better solution. The Bart PE will map a network to our ghost server were we have all of our images and I just fire up ghost and go to our network so I can image the laptop or create an image from the laptop. To setup BartPE was really easy. I searched on how to add ghost and setup a mapped drive in BartPE. Within a couple hours I had a working CD where I can ghost computers and create images.
I setup 3 mobilecarts with laptops and We got some APC Extended battery this time. I really don’t like the tips for the extended battery. All the rest of the tips are angled but the IBM ones. I had put in a work order for engineering to drill a hole on the top of the mobilecarts so the user could stick a pencil or a pen to power on the laptop. If the tips for the IBM laptops were angled we wouldn’t have to drill a hole on the mobilecart and the laptop would fit nicely.

Turn Paragraph marks On or Off in Word
I had a user that couldn’t turn them off so here is shortcut key to turn them on or off. To turn them off or on, press Ctrl+Shift+8 at the same time. It is very easy so now you don’t have to put in a ticket to your IT department.

Wearable Robotic Walker
I saw this on cnn a story that was talking about wearable robotic walker. They made a walker that is robotic. How cool is that? The device helps support the bodyweight, reduce stress on the knees and help people get up steps and stay in crouching positions. At Honda it helps assembly workers look under the vehicles, but this can also help the elderly walk.

Who Did you vote for?
I voted for change, but not the republicans. I wanted change because our money is going out the window in this country. We are fighting two wars where we should have only fought one war. We need to keep gas prices low like We are having now. Hopefully they don’t go up in prices because the election is over. Who did you vote for?

I am back online
I finally got internet and TV. I can say that I am all set in my new arpartment. My regular posting schedule will resume.
The keyword of the day is tuxedos. Formaltux.com is where you can buy everything for your formal event or wedding. I think if you know your size and what you like shopping online would be easy. Someone like me that don’t I think will be hard.

Make a list to get organized
I am sitting here making a list on what I need to move into my first apartment. I think making a list helps you get organized. I like to make a list when I go grocery shopping and I don’t stray away from that list. This will help save on money and it helps you get in and out fast in a place that is already packed with people. I think list making will really help you.
