" Hear this it is it 2000 it -- in 1990.

You're paying for 247 and one of the responses that -- probably something it says the basically magically slowdown things you think. You know the monitor your man with that thinking using too much bandwidth that might have monthly cap."

Why haven't -- spending money on boxes three better back and network management that we need to look at any money this this isn't Shakespeare right as a small town in Texas I believe relatively small that is apparently people want. But yeah what they're doing is as a trial. Right so you know what this is to Apple's iTunes has used its its work in the side of the service packs assess the XP or Vista. It's yours your files -- basically this is Time Warner. You know. That we can make a lot of money we charge people for the matter with the user -- one and -- much of the conspiracy bidders that think that maybe one little threat from the sort of downloads and money coming camera I think that's sort of -- upsetting mayor's you know.

" We ask you guys few shows ago about time machine and we've gotten subtle responses you know first one comes from Michael in California he writes this urge you ask for review on time machine on Mac. Love it but here's a tip. Click on time machine to back up and then delete the file right off your desktop. If you need it later just pick it up in time machine most of the files I work on ice into another office for the information I never to be seen again by me. In less than -- passport so that night at a time machine that's from Michael in imperial beach California."

" One all right Keith says she worked okay what tiger but it is -- on the system processes the leopard but it mixed bag or -- as most people -- an idea and he might stuck on -- server you can't update or restore because the software so unstable it crashes. Everything is to use it in leopard. Now out of fresh install leopard this time she is very handy relocating saw or loading software. And users on the system he still using time machine back up from the previous install restore files I'm sensing this through leopard issues here."

" go that way an exodus from AJ works -- the university that uses.

" Thanks today so -- that there's very in -- the -- support a lot of people now. We -- more on my experience and time machine on leopard upgrade as such but it honestly it was put together by former Vista -- hammers out of polygamous Seagate USB firewire external with a -- are important -- this debate -- of his system freeze required for shutdown or restart said -- supercomputer that months of constant use once. Without needing a reboot and then only because -- system has to alter. Birmingham Alabama is not real happy. With a leopard and time machine. Janet told us that you make sure you don't leader external drive turned up because in which case T time machine can't write to it. That he -- that problem. And it -- says it's harder to use a laptop and desktop since quote it only backs up if your external drive is connected for an extended period of time which is a rarity on your laptop I end up connecting the drive just manually started back up every time. And to show on wall David -- Chris injectable solid what -- it mostly on tighter around in the leopard things is that people. Do a lot -- yeah. Look get lost in -- ruled the body -- taught she's an afterlife petroglyphs in all sorts of weird place to go climb but the thing is you want your part of away from highways the cellphone cuts if there's an emergency situation your lesson well -- stuff compared -- that means hatred that police came here to help that he is a piece of mind. Folks its spot these tablet personal trackerless satellite personal messenger is saying that you you -- he. -- you know just it is trying to field and you know that --"

" They should say check this out."

" Something you on the scene is the spot satellite personal tracker is an interesting idea for a couple reasons. Personals -- 150 dollars and so little deceptive because as a hundred dollar annual fee to actually do anything useful with it. Second while it doesn't just have the Coast Guard National Guard armed forces 911 all hell break in this button. Actually has a button that says okay you hit it it's sort of messed up to the satellite which can take some time because it has a lock on the globalstar satellite system. Again it gives email lessons up on the website you can link onto at a map you basically have a time stamp and GPS location. It's got a nonlife threatening help -- which basically means I'm stuck here I'm -- and I'm not going to die but please send someone. And then there's the 911 button which is coordinated through. The GO central services that started up the spokesman -- spot. Now you know -- two lights blinking right here. That's because we haven't actually sent the satellite suggest we hit the okay button when it's actually sending the message. They'll hold green for a few seconds and that's -- your confirmation that the messages actually been sent there's no two way communications here you can't in the text messaging can't talk through it. He makes him one way messages out with time and GPS information. Now you may think -- a clear area right now but the tree right here the buildings over there could actually be blocking our access to the satellites up in space seem really want to get someplace -- and exposed in 360 degrees and also has a tracking those traditional fifty dollars here -- show you that's. And actually would have needed DOT gotten back in the studio right now and let the dog loose it's going nuts."

" But he's willing you have to wander around looking to constantly scanned with the downside this. Why have the cost of what's what's and it really think -- really tanker that might rammed into the bridge. I'm with -- notes that those. That was obscure they had it in dry dock here I want look at working on video actually I actually have one more look at that we actually saw -- that we basically some people don't a lot of oil in the area which is being repaired yet here we -- operate the program the lawyers that not to do it. -- persistent. Which is what -- it does actually work right. It is kind of like you know your first GPS you know we're just incredible with the idea that you're okay into the GPS -- the satellite the satellite's surface space. It is -- work it doesn't really working to get -- little of the city obviously -- down on 11 by the people on paper cap to stop. But if you're if you're kidding here if you were still want right you don't you don't mean my first in the Fisher price sort of way no no no -- but you know when you're talking about you know personal computer -- basically doctors have been about 500 dollars. 2000 dollars. That -- have ones setting which is called the National Guard. Right you set that and basically the emergency services go into effect these -- setting bodies to locate search and rescue call it what do you honestly. What you've got -- this was you know like we're talking about for the video you get the okay confined to worry about it and help button and help button sends out messages you can see there's on the screen with people is -- It'll basically say like a text message. Or email -- the people want to contact. -- the -- is going to be like you know Patrick you know if you have this little sort of standardized -- like Patrick request assistance and then -- GPS coordinates gives them the latitude longitude your application. So and that's it it's really fascinating you know my only -- somebody's like uses this in place. You know but avalanche -- or common sense or -- travel alone I'll -- spot everything will be cool you know not suitable for that not you know if -- it's not a substitute for common sense but that figure anybody's you know smart enough to like -- one of these carry them around. And negative things you know you have to be conscious and actually you know. Crawl through an open space we're gonna view this -- actually hit the button. It can hear it takes about twenty minutes to do message below a mechanic and cracking -- sort of a fifty dollar a year. You have tracking code you basically -- it on you know with the message out every ten minutes. For long periods of time just kind of true. What happened that and I thank them because -- be part of this also has -- consumer price we want to look at Google maps you were out what's going on boosting write this it's it's pretty easily well you're logged into the website basically that the okay messages and the help messages and nine -- ones you know. Not activated on this we can't and I -- honestly don't know 11 essentials like we don't want a different that the -- rescues obviously -- Thomas about it to a morning who accidentally hit suddenly have this horrible image of legally blonde could."

" I need help honey about the groceries."

" Door. That'd be donated it's pretty -- the person's right. You know and -- you you know your financial traveling in the middle of nowhere which is a really different concept.

If you talk about you know the body Utah Iowa you know maybe -- coastal region have to climb up in the triple canopy jungle. You know but it is that this is going to be it would reads like I've I've actually more impressive than expected. I -- help now do you think it'll get its own segment. You go wander over by the window reporter -- on my experiences with the little box. The other -- wrote this letter Revision 3. Dot com slash Tekzilla that would take a minute to thank the sponsors on the show yeah voice."

" Yes this week that look at -- response to my Netflix if you like I definitely got both these dvd and Blu-ray movies and shows this are going over to www. Netflix dot com slash Tekzilla what you get it's absolutely free."

" For a Provo if you -- your problem. I -- very protect knows yeah brought an important thing you love it I love that we actually he's at home you know we've obviously true at all sponsor. Well before it became responsible basically it's it's not -- bit rate like to get -- back -- like have read five. Multiple hard drive and basically it that it figures is that what with a software machine. And watching little light like green hat people read write then Apple swap drive. And you know they always talk about advertisers in that expendable is basically you swap out smaller drive larger drive -- what does it cheaper. Big complaint from people this has always been this USB only. Because it's like every five particularly you are about on the particular brought them here about Leah. Thirty megabit per second technique. Transferred about. -- Years that connection or even a single drive -- SP but it what you trade off for this he is -- the protections of the drive dies you all the commute you're -- flowing red and orange -- nice to meet them thanks yeah well actually just pull the cable. Because my question that will take a look at Provo -- itself -- Is mainly a back -- device and resident device to spread files across my network or across you know access from anywhere -- what is this thing with the best use yes well it basically in the in the -- we're sharing up until today. -- years ago up until today. You were connecting this to a single machine right if you want to use -- to store files across your home network. You would happen basically attach it to way Mac -- PC share. So what they've actually come out within that but air wrote in asking us about this is the -- this year it's been little box I have here died stack. -- So you can actually attach it to grow those on this. And it's basically -- the company's servers that turns the -- we've heard that robo put durable goods durables. -- the true vote. What drove those quote yesterday your network and it turns your Perot vote into it that are -- manually maps and on the analysts and or. On -- this there's there's a lot of removed from doing these two boxes I can tell home blow me that the drug abuse really cool because they basically made. You know turning Perot -- into apps and making the hard drive you know the storage on the Provo accessible. TV machines -- client software that's really cool. -- It exists and is this what I want instantly. Each team user well it's a question because the primary competitors for for like the votes to grow this year. Would be so -- buffaloes -- And here's the thing right you you get a lot of ease of use convenience on this its its you don't have to do you know you have to deal with complicated configuration software upgrade hard -- and painless. On the flip side by the time we get you know the 495 dollar program that's fifty dollars you ignorant excellent -- like the bird. But by targeted program which is basically 500 dollars -- dollars. In the 200 dollars here that took off at 700 dollar and now we can start and we can drop. Progress there opera a couple of Tera station's gonna cost you around 700 dollars. With a terabyte hard drives and for thirteen hundred dollar tree if you terabyte of storage so what you're you're you're definitely paying a premium but putting this together. But the -- you have you know simplified administration. Seems to me like he -- some really great sweet spot or small business -- menus and -- house because. Of ability to you know swap drive and now have that kind of security not afterward eloquently in the media servers vastness of Internet. I mean there's nothing too you nothing crashes it's nobody you can be you can easily plug the group code in your media server grade -- you if you if you India. Who wrote the software what are the issues right you know it's good if so you -- your your hard drive you had you know your heart your notebook or desktop machines. Right backing up an external hard drives do you backing up to a server is only as good as the you know -- world service to get a single drive. You know we have a single point failure rate -- raid one that you got near drives you know this -- there isn't that new Mac device that lets you back up. Yes well thanks in the poignantly the sort of like you know the time capsule where they've taken a hard drive drop in time an airport express you know it's always get you should always always have a second Mac cure what's -- it's USB drive external hard drive. Yeah and it's always that that factor back up outside her house to the cart knows your back up servers because it's doubtful that you're house and like the server -- most right now. And yes actually somebody asked me about that recently I know a number of people lost everything houses -- The emphasis yours chase and buildings all video gets please for the publisher show notes. And -- those it. Revision 3 com slash text or better yet just -- with -- com. I appropriate download the stuff that you just bull able to resist -- immediately this -- was right today our beloved series producer of the goal player the but what the home doll that's one of -- opponents right at almost all of us got villa what I would what is it's free media players we're actually DivX at Soviets blast video racing three on MP 4826 -- like the sort of the sort of -- the Swiss army -- yeah that's a good one and it's the policies -- that the policy because abilities through the -- that he has acts.

Is if you click and bracket and clicked and -- the other bracket you can actually get it to group."

" that -- on that you know what I like about us from look at play around it it strikes me a lot like when I am used to be for MP threes. Plays almost every format. Really easy just -- what you wanted to do and and doesn't have a bunch of other stuff. Next previously hung all over -- thanks differently and it would also news is like these deals seem to play dvds that would play any editor including expensive personal as this one. Go quickly broken apart ABI files again like partial download it'll actually play it. -- title supports play those formats and the review it -- insects. Screen captures and it's absolutely. Three. And we cut media link for the show notes by the show notes. Tekzilla dot com and this is -- TV. Set -- 70070. And actually while we're talking about they were remind you about. Who -- by their beloved and we'll viewers that this awesome episode -- we hope it's awesome.

Books currently easier -- the only thing that you speaking of awesome videogames which is that the giant pile of previous games coming up. We actually it's already out there that we do in conjunction with the magazine's windows users magazine a 101. Free games and you know a compilation of freeware shareware budget Independent game developers is excellent checking out on want to dot com definitely difficult question mark. You play that yes because -- actually my wife was pissed off when it's not a casual games in many articles that alters the casual games which -- how many versions of visual -- you could -- list -- of the blast I think it's really -- hundred executed as long time it's always most popular features it's plenty from the Indian games the issue -- through any rainy day in San Francisco -- you -- one analyst. We took -- question mark and actually it's stuff like that I don't I don't have a favorite because the stuff just goes all over the board depends what you them for the most favorite part is that there's always something -- again we're gonna be your favorite out of that put in the show notes about it shown up front and I don't think. -- operative rebels and -- I've moved to Europe but wife and -- Skype every -- to communicate with our parents were obviously interested seeing your current job and please don't tell my mom gets -- every day shall be followed by. -- the baby's getting older albums that more time chasing you around the house sitting from PC monitor. -- Bluetooth webcam we can say put in the definitely do worse typically place and stills and video and audio perspective grab her -- it's a great question. -- as far as I mean the close that we will Bluetooth camera is a hat actually the mobile web camera and his cellphone and we've got a USB connection to pull out. And you'd actually see like the Bluetooth if you come over there that they can kill the connection again and you kind of have the whole seems to be complete screen captured and sent it over like 614 it is quite -- there -- supports audio -- video -- the most impressive combination. By to see it running -- camera that could also be partly a function on the phone right ticket yet they'll be partly ultimate but we've seen actually quit which is a pretty slick device QIK dot com that's what we department's system recently. Where to exit from Nokia phone. Over the the wireless network -- your cell phone providers network. And -- pretty good job getting video actually there out -- optional for Skype though oh man you don't get on the public you know the -- you know to get like forty foot extension cable -- cannibalism duct -- that goes with this week on why I'm gonna trips around the house with a 25 USB -- what. It did say that you basically plays in the in the living room don't go -- a copy an image of him going to the coffee table and everything being swept off with the cable okay dog running around in circles -- go to this book is now. There are able to have a camera that that or she you have to find one track it and he -- security. Digs some of the Ottawa about it in another alternative possibly pleased that at any statement. -- PSP out of the deal UP SP works with Skype I have not seen to confirm that it works with video. But the PSP does support a modular. Cameras -- right on the top of the thing how cool to be you know walk around. Followed your your grand kids and and you know what UP SP shoot him anywhere and budget Wi-Fi taken to go on the backyard just all along I got I think that would be great. Potential solution I think it's extremely awesome potential -- how much it cost. I don't of the prices over in Europe and the news that he has. 300 euros and long he's actually get folks that in the states with the American press. So you got the -- here but I don't know -- and the camera department. It right now. -- by that accident that's so cool and different shops have -- have you ecstasy if you replace that and what's it and getting agitated and the PSP it's a wonderful paper weight. Keep you actually use the state features because I was like. I don't you don't know the answer this question -- that you why he had the old is he brought the Skype software short answer is I don't know long answer is for some reason it makes use of the additional memory that they added into the disk buffer for the -- he's -- just don't I think it's just. -- people it. Now I don't like it there are there personal PSPs and a lot of support legacy of La games coming up that are on the -- and -- and I think they're getting much better designing portable games instead of home games that they should moron it's okay. In the meantime accusing the yes. -- What Lori relevance so there's loads -- done Texas down right there it's the album lapped up the hard questions -- my laptop is not Apple's public for a small external USB hard put stuff on what you recommend especially in the sub 100 calories. From John and chaos. -- Getting a full size hard drive -- three happens hard drives that it's more gigabytes. For your money. You've got -- have you got Rogers -- here right yeah actually -- both boat that -- Roger paid I think 25 dollars with I think I bought mine on sale for fifteen. --"

" What he paid the big money for this it's got that -- a connection minds just yes 2.0 and it to do it yourself. Two it happens basically put -- and add your own you have inch notebook hard drive inside of here. And look at this fabulous he set a connection along with USB two point you have a late model computer you can actually use that you set and so of course uses -- the older machines by the USB. And one of the cool things to do this one -- yank on the -- along with you about this case the countless. Is they give you a power cord that will actually a pastor power cord to a limited number of USB. Ports on your notebook can be really useful."

" Going to be mad at -- Tyson just watch the Sunday papers and pick up a turnkey solution don't know I mean actually have not everybody makes those now -- everybody's -- we've we've had.

You're paying for 247 and one of the responses that -- probably something it says the basically magically slowdown things you think. You know the monitor your man with that thinking using too much bandwidth that might have monthly cap."

The TC PIP tapped the keyboard driver. Basically connecting to remote sites it would dot are you at the end of it you probably have some really nasty stuff running in your system. So. He's got a point you simply to know hurt him very -- average person BC host is a bad thing it will kill the process. And call us novices because when does not work anymore and yes we actually pointed out this -- studios is responsible for a lot of our normal.

" We ask you guys few shows ago about time machine and we've gotten subtle responses you know first one comes from Michael in California he writes this urge you ask for review on time machine on Mac. Love it but here's a tip. Click on time machine to back up and then delete the file right off your desktop. If you need it later just pick it up in time machine most of the files I work on ice into another office for the information I never to be seen again by me. In less than -- passport so that night at a time machine that's from Michael in imperial beach California."

" One all right Keith says she worked okay what tiger but it is -- on the system processes the leopard but it mixed bag or -- as most people -- an idea and he might stuck on -- server you can't update or restore because the software so unstable it crashes. Everything is to use it in leopard. Now out of fresh install leopard this time she is very handy relocating saw or loading software. And users on the system he still using time machine back up from the previous install restore files I'm sensing this through leopard issues here."

" go that way an exodus from AJ works -- the university that uses. Retrospect for fifty plus clients -- we're actually considering letting Mac people who want to move. -- a time machine to back up I use myself I like it granted it's not quite useful feature is larger back appliance but it's just so damn easy for a user QV. -- Time machine lacks customization options and it's easy automated back up when NASA six server but it's extreme ease of use is huge plus for service burden back ups -- mission critical."

" Thanks today so -- that there's very in -- the -- support a lot of people now. We -- more on my experience and time machine on leopard upgrade as such but it honestly it was put together by former Vista -- hammers out of polygamous Seagate USB firewire external with a -- are important -- this debate -- of his system freeze required for shutdown or restart said -- supercomputer that months of constant use once. Without needing a reboot and then only because -- system has to alter. Birmingham Alabama is not real happy. With a leopard and time machine. Janet told us that you make sure you don't leader external drive turned up because in which case T time machine can't write to it. That he -- that problem. And it -- says it's harder to use a laptop and desktop since quote it only backs up if your external drive is connected for an extended period of time which is a rarity on your laptop I end up connecting the drive just manually started back up every time. And to show on wall David -- Chris injectable solid what -- it mostly on tighter around in the leopard things is that people. Do a lot -- yeah. Look get lost in -- ruled the body -- taught she's an afterlife petroglyphs in all sorts of weird place to go climb but the thing is you want your part of away from highways the cellphone cuts if there's an emergency situation your lesson well -- stuff compared -- that means hatred that police came here to help that he is a piece of mind. Folks its spot these tablet personal trackerless satellite personal messenger is saying that you you -- he. -- you know just it is trying to field and you know that --"

" They should say check this out."

" Something you on the scene is the spot satellite personal tracker is an interesting idea for a couple reasons. Personals -- 150 dollars and so little deceptive because as a hundred dollar annual fee to actually do anything useful with it. Second while it doesn't just have the Coast Guard National Guard armed forces 911 all hell break in this button. Actually has a button that says okay you hit it it's sort of messed up to the satellite which can take some time because it has a lock on the globalstar satellite system. Again it gives email lessons up on the website you can link onto at a map you basically have a time stamp and GPS location. It's got a nonlife threatening help -- which basically means I'm stuck here I'm -- and I'm not going to die but please send someone. And then there's the 911 button which is coordinated through. The GO central services that started up the spokesman -- spot. Now you know -- two lights blinking right here. That's because we haven't actually sent the satellite suggest we hit the okay button when it's actually sending the message. They'll hold green for a few seconds and that's -- your confirmation that the messages actually been sent there's no two way communications here you can't in the text messaging can't talk through it. He makes him one way messages out with time and GPS information. Now you may think -- a clear area right now but the tree right here the buildings over there could actually be blocking our access to the satellites up in space seem really want to get someplace -- and exposed in 360 degrees and also has a tracking those traditional fifty dollars here -- show you that's. And actually would have needed DOT gotten back in the studio right now and let the dog loose it's going nuts."

" But he's willing you have to wander around looking to constantly scanned with the downside this. Why have the cost of what's what's and it really think -- really tanker that might rammed into the bridge. I'm with -- notes that those. That was obscure they had it in dry dock here I want look at working on video actually I actually have one more look at that we actually saw -- that we basically some people don't a lot of oil in the area which is being repaired yet here we -- operate the program the lawyers that not to do it. -- persistent. Which is what -- it does actually work right. It is kind of like you know your first GPS you know we're just incredible with the idea that you're okay into the GPS -- the satellite the satellite's surface space. It is -- work it doesn't really working to get -- little of the city obviously -- down on 11 by the people on paper cap to stop. But if you're if you're kidding here if you were still want right you don't you don't mean my first in the Fisher price sort of way no no no -- but you know when you're talking about you know personal computer -- basically doctors have been about 500 dollars. 2000 dollars. That -- have ones setting which is called the National Guard. Right you set that and basically the emergency services go into effect these -- setting bodies to locate search and rescue call it what do you honestly. What you've got -- this was you know like we're talking about for the video you get the okay confined to worry about it and help button and help button sends out messages you can see there's on the screen with people is -- It'll basically say like a text message. Or email -- the people want to contact. -- the -- is going to be like you know Patrick you know if you have this little sort of standardized -- like Patrick request assistance and then -- GPS coordinates gives them the latitude longitude your application. So and that's it it's really fascinating you know my only -- somebody's like uses this in place. You know but avalanche -- or common sense or -- travel alone I'll -- spot everything will be cool you know not suitable for that not you know if -- it's not a substitute for common sense but that figure anybody's you know smart enough to like -- one of these carry them around. And negative things you know you have to be conscious and actually you know. Crawl through an open space we're gonna view this -- actually hit the button. It can hear it takes about twenty minutes to do message below a mechanic and cracking -- sort of a fifty dollar a year. You have tracking code you basically -- it on you know with the message out every ten minutes. For long periods of time just kind of true. What happened that and I thank them because -- be part of this also has -- consumer price we want to look at Google maps you were out what's going on boosting write this it's it's pretty easily well you're logged into the website basically that the okay messages and the help messages and nine -- ones you know. Not activated on this we can't and I -- honestly don't know 11 essentials like we don't want a different that the -- rescues obviously -- Thomas about it to a morning who accidentally hit suddenly have this horrible image of legally blonde could."

" I need help honey about the groceries."

" Door. That'd be donated it's pretty -- the person's right. You know and -- you you know your financial traveling in the middle of nowhere which is a really different concept.

" Yes this week that look at -- response to my Netflix if you like I definitely got both these dvd and Blu-ray movies and shows this are going over to www. Netflix dot com slash Tekzilla what you get it's absolutely free."

" For a Provo if you -- your problem. I -- very protect knows yeah brought an important thing you love it I love that we actually he's at home you know we've obviously true at all sponsor. Well before it became responsible basically it's it's not -- bit rate like to get -- back -- like have read five. Multiple hard drive and basically it that it figures is that what with a software machine. And watching little light like green hat people read write then Apple swap drive. And you know they always talk about advertisers in that expendable is basically you swap out smaller drive larger drive -- what does it cheaper. Big complaint from people this has always been this USB only. Because it's like every five particularly you are about on the particular brought them here about Leah. Thirty megabit per second technique. Transferred about. -- Years that connection or even a single drive -- SP but it what you trade off for this he is -- the protections of the drive dies you all the commute you're -- flowing red and orange -- nice to meet them thanks yeah well actually just pull the cable. Because my question that will take a look at Provo -- itself -- Is mainly a back -- device and resident device to spread files across my network or across you know access from anywhere -- what is this thing with the best use yes well it basically in the in the -- we're sharing up until today. -- years ago up until today. You were connecting this to a single machine right if you want to use -- to store files across your home network. You would happen basically attach it to way Mac -- PC share. So what they've actually come out within that but air wrote in asking us about this is the -- this year it's been little box I have here died stack. -- So you can actually attach it to grow those on this. And it's basically -- the company's servers that turns the -- we've heard that robo put durable goods durables. -- the true vote. What drove those quote yesterday your network and it turns your Perot vote into it that are -- manually maps and on the analysts and or. On -- this there's there's a lot of removed from doing these two boxes I can tell home blow me that the drug abuse really cool because they basically made. You know turning Perot -- into apps and making the hard drive you know the storage on the Provo accessible. TV machines -- client software that's really cool. -- It exists and is this what I want instantly. Each team user well it's a question because the primary competitors for for like the votes to grow this year. Would be so -- buffaloes -- And here's the thing right you you get a lot of ease of use convenience on this its its you don't have to do you know you have to deal with complicated configuration software upgrade hard -- and painless. On the flip side by the time we get you know the 495 dollar program that's fifty dollars you ignorant excellent -- like the bird. But by targeted program which is basically 500 dollars -- dollars. In the 200 dollars here that took off at 700 dollar and now we can start and we can drop. Progress there opera a couple of Tera station's gonna cost you around 700 dollars. With a terabyte hard drives and for thirteen hundred dollar tree if you terabyte of storage so what you're you're you're definitely paying a premium but putting this together. But the -- you have you know simplified administration. Seems to me like he -- some really great sweet spot or small business -- menus and -- house because. Of ability to you know swap drive and now have that kind of security not afterward eloquently in the media servers vastness of Internet. I mean there's nothing too you nothing crashes it's nobody you can be you can easily plug the group code in your media server grade -- you if you if you India. Who wrote the software what are the issues right you know it's good if so you -- your your hard drive you had you know your heart your notebook or desktop machines. Right backing up an external hard drives do you backing up to a server is only as good as the you know -- world service to get a single drive. You know we have a single point failure rate -- raid one that you got near drives you know this -- there isn't that new Mac device that lets you back up. Yes well thanks in the poignantly the sort of like you know the time capsule where they've taken a hard drive drop in time an airport express you know it's always get you should always always have a second Mac cure what's -- it's USB drive external hard drive. Yeah and it's always that that factor back up outside her house to the cart knows your back up servers because it's doubtful that you're house and like the server -- most right now. And yes actually somebody asked me about that recently I know a number of people lost everything houses -- The emphasis yours chase and buildings all video gets please for the publisher show notes.

Free games and you know a compilation of freeware shareware budget Independent game developers is excellent checking out on want to dot com definitely difficult question mark. You play that yes because -- actually my wife was pissed off when it's not a casual games in many articles that alters the casual games which -- how many versions of visual -- you could -- list -- of the blast I think it's really -- hundred executed as long time it's always most popular features it's plenty from the Indian games the issue -- through any rainy day in San Francisco -- you -- one analyst. We took -- question mark and actually it's stuff like that I don't I don't have a favorite because the stuff just goes all over the board depends what you them for the most favorite part is that there's always something -- again we're gonna be your favorite out of that put in the show notes about it shown up front and I don't think. -- operative rebels and -- I've moved to Europe but wife and -- Skype every -- to communicate with our parents were obviously interested seeing your current job and please don't tell my mom gets -- every day shall be followed by. -- the baby's getting older albums that more time chasing you around the house sitting from PC monitor. -- Bluetooth webcam we can say put in the definitely do worse typically place and stills and video and audio perspective grab her -- it's a great question. -- as far as I mean the close that we will Bluetooth camera is a hat actually the mobile web camera and his cellphone and we've got a USB connection to pull out. And you'd actually see like the Bluetooth if you come over there that they can kill the connection again and you kind of have the whole seems to be complete screen captured and sent it over like 614 it is quite -- there -- supports audio -- video -- the most impressive combination. By to see it running -- camera that could also be partly a function on the phone right ticket yet they'll be partly ultimate but we've seen actually quit which is a pretty slick device QIK dot com that's what we department's system recently. Where to exit from Nokia phone. Over the the wireless network -- your cell phone providers network. And -- pretty good job getting video actually there out -- optional for Skype though oh man you don't get on the public you know the -- you know to get like forty foot extension cable -- cannibalism duct -- that goes with this week on why I'm gonna trips around the house with a 25 USB -- what. It did say that you basically plays in the in the living room don't go -- a copy an image of him going to the coffee table and everything being swept off with the cable okay dog running around in circles -- go to this book is now. There are able to have a camera that that or she you have to find one track it and he -- security. Digs some of the Ottawa about it in another alternative possibly pleased that at any statement. -- PSP out of the deal UP SP works with Skype I have not seen to confirm that it works with video. But the PSP does support a modular. Cameras -- right on the top of the thing how cool to be you know walk around. Followed your your grand kids and and you know what UP SP shoot him anywhere and budget Wi-Fi taken to go on the backyard just all along I got I think that would be great. Potential solution I think it's extremely awesome potential -- how much it cost. I don't of the prices over in Europe and the news that he has. 300 euros and long he's actually get folks that in the states with the American press. So you got the -- here but I don't know -- and the camera department. It right now. -- by that accident that's so cool and different shops have -- have you ecstasy if you replace that and what's it and getting agitated and the PSP it's a wonderful paper weight. Keep you actually use the state features because I was like. I don't you don't know the answer this question -- that you why he had the old is he brought the Skype software short answer is I don't know long answer is for some reason it makes use of the additional memory that they added into the disk buffer for the -- he's -- just don't I think it's just. -- people it. Now I don't like it there are there personal PSPs and a lot of support legacy of La games coming up that are on the -- and -- and I think they're getting much better designing portable games instead of home games that they should moron it's okay. In the meantime accusing the yes. -- What Lori relevance so there's loads -- done Texas down right there it's the album lapped up the hard questions -- my laptop is not Apple's public for a small external USB hard put stuff on what you recommend especially in the sub 100 calories.
