• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

    Is 2012 Slated to be the Year of the Ultrabook?

    I'm using an Asus UX31 right now and really like it. I fail to understand why they made the battery non user replaceable and why the max RAM is 4 GB without possibility to upgrade, though. 4 GB may be fine for most now, but will probably limit its useful life.

    Anyone use Spotify?

    I've been using it since about two days after it launched in the US. At first, I liked it but was put off by having to make my own play lists. As I built them, though, I liked it more and more. I ended up subscribing to the premium service. They have an impressive library, their software...

    New Adobe Flash Player Locks Down the Cookie Jar

    Yet still no support for 64-bit browsers. Come on Adobe, Flash is heavily used on the net. You're holding the technology world back by not developing a native 64-bit Flash player. 64-bit software isn't a fad that is going to pass...

    How NOT to Launch a Video Game

    Here's my take on it: I think the overwhelming majority of the bad reviews are complaining about not being able to play multiplayer right away. I agree, it sucks that they underestimated the server capacity that they needed, however, they at least quickly started to bring more servers...

    Hands-On With Amazon's Prime Instant Video

    At first glance, I'm not really impressed with what they made available. I was hoping to see more new releases. When I heard rumors about this I thought it would seal the deal for me getting Prime, but eh. Somebody needs to find a way to get the movie industry to allow current movies to be...

    New email system

    We deployed Zimbra. We're actually wrapping up our migration from Zimbra to Google Apps for Education if that tells you anything. Likely we would have been okay if we never got involved with their Outlook connector. Unfortunately, the connector screwed so much up and created such a support...

    New email system

    If you go the Zimbra route, do not, I repeat, DO NOT try to make it Exchange by introducing the Zimbra Outlook Connector...

    Most U.S. Broadband Connections Aren't Broadband

    We have 12 down/768 up (I can hit 1 up) which is pretty good for the middle of nowhere, but I'd love to have fiber to the home.

    AV comparatives for the enterprise product

    We're in the middle of moving to Forefront...it has been working very well. We're replacing Sophos...I'm definitely not a big fan of Sophos. We had way too many infections, and the process to create an installer is ridiculous. Forefront seems to be pretty easy to manage and the detection is...

    Intel to Buy McAfee for $7.68 Billion

    What? There are any number of much better names to buy than McAffee, particularly since they recently borked all of their customers' computers.

    Lithium-Ion Batteries Threat To Airline Safety?

    Forget about the dullness of it...would you check anything electronic? I would be amazed if a checked laptop would function after being thrown around by the baggage "handlers."

    Antivirus Software: Questions/Suggestions/Comments for Enterprise

    We left Symantec a couple of years ago and the decision was made to go with Sophos. In my opinion it really isn't any better. It is terribly bloated, very noticeably slows computers down, and doesn't appear to be too great in the detection department either. I'd suggest taking a good, long...

    Ethernet over Powerlines

    I can say that I have IP TV from my phone company and they use ethernet over power to get to a room that just can't easily be connected. They use Pluglink AV units and they work very well.

    Best help desk ticketing system?

    We use HEAT and have had good luck with it. It is very customizable and easy to work with.
