Carbonite Online Backup, OtterBox for iPhone, Holiday Photo Help, Novatel 727, Driftr, Persepolis.

Friday, December 21st, 2007 – running time 33:38
OtterBox cases don't suck. Easy unlimited online backup: Carbonite. Persepolis. Lighting Help for Holiday Photos. Driftr. Novatel 727 EVDO Modem. iRobot Looj. Zune Correction.

Otterbox cases don't suck: Patrick's (water, dust and abuse proof) OtterBox iPod Classic Armor has survived Baja, the beach, and a tumble down a flight of stairs. We showed off the dust and shock (but not water!) proof iPhone Defender. If you're looking for a waterproof iPhone case, check out Otterbox's iPhone Armor, and find yourself a wireless headset!

Samsung SSD 64GB 2.5 inch hard drive. Solid state, no rotating media, built of NAND Flash memory, which means you can beat (well... jar, bounce and vibrate) hell out of it and it doesn't skip or crash. The downside is slow write speeds, and a hefty price tag: close to a grand if you're upgrade a notebook with one. Expect SSD prices to drop considerably by this time next year. Looking for some excellent benchmarks on Samsung's SSD? Check out Extremetech's Solid State Drives: Fast, Rugged, and Really Expensive.

There's nothing wrong with the chat built in Gmail, except that most of your friends are on AIM, right? Good news: Google's integrated AIM support into Gmail's chat client!

Despite what we said on air, the new AIM integration is only in the Gmail chat client -not- Google Talk!

Holiday Photo Help: Taking photos in low light can be tough. Neha Tiwari's got some top tips for dealing with indoor lighting, flash and the nefarious shiny lights that turn into streaks on your photos! It's time to stop having muddy, blown out and shaky holiday photos!

iRobot Looj - Jim Louderback tests out iRobot's new gutter cleaning robot... we love the Roomba... will this one hold up as well in real world use?

Producer Pick o' the Week: Heather's excited about Persepolis, the touching tale of a rebellious ten year old Iranian girl growing up during the revolution of 1979.

Thinking about buying a Drobo? Enter in the code TEKZILLA when you check out of the Drobo Store and you'll save $50!

Online backup takes a looong time for the initial upload, but is the easiest way to protect your data from a catastrophic disaster... the kind that takes out your whole house.

Jared, one of your fellow viewers wrote in about Carbonite ... one of the best reviewed services out there: easy to set up, easy to use, and at $50 a year, is reasonably priced, especially since you get -UNLIMITED- backup. Windows only... sorry Mac and Linux users.

Code Red: Jessica picks Driftr, a fab new social networking site for folks that like to travel. You can use it to keep track of the places you've been and share photos, reviews and blog posts... and research the postings of other Driftr's before you travel somewhere. The best part? Looking at the map you've created and seeing all the places you've been.

Driftr is currently in private beta, but the first 20 emails to hello (at) driftr.com with Tekzilla in the subject line will get in!

Novatel's latest USB EVDO (That's Evolution-Data Optimized, Patrick) modem, the Ovation MC727 is available as the Sprint Ovation 727 and Verizon Wireless USB727 Mode... it's the update to the Sprint Ovation U720 Patrick uses. (And pays for out of his own pocket.) The 727 is smaller, packs new GPS functionality, can carry a MicroSD to add thumb drive functionality, and a much better set of accessories... but has about the same performance as the previous model.

Zune and Podcasts: we goofed. You can add any podcast/videocast with an RSS feed into the Zune software. The Zune online help sucks, tho! And since some folks were confused, let's make it super clear: The Zune can play any unprotected MP3 or WMA file. It can only play protected/DRM'd/purchased songs from the Zune Marketplace. (So Plays For Sure doesn't work with the Zune!)

Strange one eyed thing on the wall? Jon, that's an Uglydoll. You can learn more about them at the offical Uglydoll Website.

Juice: Not quite as cross plateform as Thomas suggested... Chris noticed that it doesn't have a Linux version... the Juice folks suggest Podnova and Icepodder. Thanks for the heads up, we'll double check viewer tips before we post 'em.

"Would upscaling a regular DVD be a smarter, more cost effective decisions over taking the HD plunge?" Scott, one of the more, uh, financially well endowed Home Theater buffs we know came to that very same decision after spending over a thousand dollars on HD DVD and Blu-ray players.

Patrick still wants to see the battle scenes from Return of the King in HD on a massive 1080p display, tho! And it's those big screens and 1080 resolutions where you'll notice the downsides of DVD videos the most.

"Will playing video games on a rear-projection television damage it? I want to hook my PlayStation 2 up to my 42" Toshiba." Marc, we think the only way you're going to hurt your rear projection television with a PlayStation 2 is if you throw it at the screen, especially if you have a DLP or LCD projector... they don't burn in.

FYI: there's no new Tekzilla the week of 12/24, but we'll be back for the first week of January!

There's the previous day the yeah. And have some -- testing generator downstairs I mean it's another diesel truck out back idling. There's a lot of -- keyboards or the bonds and move on the table and it tracks distress that it's just he feels like -- met the electorate and frequency nightmare. Would -- is one of those little football players on the teams from the sixties were -- waterproof iPod cases. I thought I had an iPhone cases -- am I worth it yeah. But people will actually -- you know people I'm a waterproof cases and not I was just about to. Emulate this which is yeah otter box -- want to have my iPod. From my bought one recently and the case not another bot in another brand and it didn't actually fit. -- in the union holes in the wrong spot for the for the -- collecting media headphone Jack. You're like -- Actually saying. Well that's just a regular Norton and -- use that would in. -- basically like. You mock or -- it into the the purpose of this which -- about. Out of -- has new iPhone case I was about to throw it in the bucket of water last."

" Make sure everything was sealed now realizing iPhone cases and actually not a what are briefcase was from the dust through the -- replace the idea. You know can protect. -- And it's accidentally diseases forced him on Norton's with the dusty crop up. I haven't in the outer box of rocks it's intended -- the dashboard and it keeps my iPod for."

" Water is but right now it just her you know that's yet. Let me in the Internet -- here."

" Why do people actually kind happens to the Wii is people soon people who -- with headphones on hand serve. What through the system these are and -- how to keep the headphones and in the wanted to we will have in your brain but the half the fun is like listening you know or shorts or -- actually. Oops you can use or would -- attack you. It's a very northern California. Period any now."

" Whatever you think. It is like obscure reference day we've also -- on the Apple McCarthy Hubert system that failure to agree though that building studio feature hammering and screaming and cursing. That would be Randolph having trouble you control panel. And now when did you play around with is. And -- as he drives solid state drive from Samsung are gracious enough alone as one. And this is some people and asking about for the first show in notebooks the super expensive hellish expensive immediate praise for that. And I have here in an external drive enclosure and that's this with the drugs like looks like a regular three happens it happens to -- half inch. Notebook drive but instead of being filled with a spinning disk and actually has rows of memory chips so estimates -- there's no moving parts inside and what's really interesting about that we're gonna cut to the fabulous movie playing a movie playing while this normally. If you have these sort of low and drive and something as simple as the vibration on a plane went into the digital do this or -- great rotors lot of my operations. It's gonna skip right of doing something like this is usually really bad of a heart attack -- time. I noticed something it's like not even basic. Sound. Yeah. So it's kind of nice you know in a rough environment so what we'll play around the sort of sort of car PC is. So -- it's not going to die. So put that up to me -- export now. Here's a thing there she purchased right about thousand dollars. And I -- that this is a whopping. 64 gigabytes so capacity is gonna be lower than rotating media traditional hard drive and it's gonna be vastly more expensive so -- about a thousand you -- you know invited usually they're going to be an upgrade to its Dell notebook or something. The one -- you know from the wonderful machines on the -- or even number of other brands of notebooks out there you title like a thousand dollar upgrade their super expensive right now. Now flash from memory prices drop going to expect these prices drop to sub 500 dollars for the prize that. Excellent it's my next next here yet and move to -- migrating yet. Performance is actually really interesting writes he. Slower than a traditional hard drive read speed and much much faster like -- production faster and what's really interesting is the access time -- time things totally fine do you want grab it and adapting to the CPU is. Impossibly fast like want to milliseconds or so the performance the read performances great -- performance not so hot so if you like capturing video you know it's going to be slow the regular hard drive. If you're reading stuff these are pretty fast. Good more performance issue we've accidentally took great extreme or or on the show tunes which case the guys over there really -- from benchmark in these. It's kind of really interesting with the performance. It's that you can expand. As well in in it as what's gonna happen is I think there they're basically as the memory chips. Increasing capacity right in theory you created in it will pull the picture in picture periods yet there. You can actually d.s honor all those like forty easily in tiny little soldering points maybe. But other than that so much you can do a lot of like you know surface mount components offering you know -- upgrade. Was interesting is. The basically is an algorithm. That randomly tennis he is indeed on different parts of the drive you have to really worry about you know fragmenting on the drives because that access speed so class. But even with a good quality USB thumb drive it should basically be -- Data and making sure doesn't like rewrite to the same spot over and over again which should give you a -- cycles. Which is the thousands of hours -- like longer than you could possibly ever hope it's. You off."

" All right that's coming up are resonating gadget guy that's -- gotten used in the gutter cleaner is here is huge list does it work but various.

There is now the options."

" The good to denounce or insert your chats that that didn't have a -- and now we'll send them. Check it out on things and this week's Tekzilla is rocky I -- available now. Love multiplayer action games than you'll really loud. Fortunate it's not like those other titles yet whose characters have different classes the abilities even get. Now it's still always. Thinks about it and this technology and it. That -- and lighthearted you know its its area and mark."

" You have -- that we should. And I appreciate or. How -- would eat it all behind. Here because she's probably gonna look -- the art pop UR nightmare."

" He would -- the big like five billion muscle in the corner and you see -- body in this like. The white exploding from there headed in the big dark spot in the case. That act."

" And animal -- only get a little here we'll also look like in the front like. Right at the fast way you know -- subjects. Went and cool which is just like -- in the lives right. And got that never ask."

" attorney at the sort of the nice picture of the Christmas tree yes and you did you hit the button and it's like 110021000. And and you can in the -- the big showing streaks."

" Very cool very quick note should I -- the tripod. A tripod would be great solution -- and also you can you know stick your camera and and -- your car as well. You part of her tray and not just the camera guy behind the camera that -- dad. Not me or pictures or 85 and I would ever get --"

" Did you get on the tripod for Christmas that you might use the timer. Maybe there now Jim our resident gadget file what I robots lose gutter robot -- garden weasel for your daughters to the ultimate test what's the how well -- there."

" I got a bit of -- world. Rainy season about the start here in California. At -- my daughters from northern -- I know -- believe the older stuff. Or why it won't go there is dangerous and dirty little. This bypassed any homeowner can days that's why I was so excited when this field. This is the -- robot lose that the new robot designed to take all the drudgery out of leaving your daughters. But then it does the cleaning you watch your done. No bucks no -- at least that's what they say so here's how it works. Does -- removable and it works is the remote control communicating with yard robot as it runs up and down to your gutters. What you do is. -- dog it goes forwards and backwards and then this is the blogger right here it goes into the different directions and will supposedly clean all the stuff out of your daughters. Let's give it try it actually."

" I figured they might gutters -- pretty dirty little extra stuff I'll pull this off. -- twelve or relative who is Mike cutter is so small enough that wide. And I robot doesn't really even fit that well supposed to be on the bottom. Because that does go through the cross bars here it looks like it might actually works or dividends try to see if it'll work -- not go. I think go to. I guess you just gotta let it go slower -- backers -- in different directions. Get hit by itself over here. So the other -- and really -- my -- problems I'm gonna have to get up your believable put off myself. But that's probably because my daughter is smaller than what they recommend so a small -- Not for you what do you have a bigger better. -- let's go to the hardware store I'll get a more standard drive wolf hatfill was some of my -- and we'll see what we've done the film."

" So about the hardware store with the biggest gutter I can find one interesting thing though it's still not rear quarter inches wide right here which is what I robot recommends lose. The other parts of the country you've got bigger brother's here we'll look like it but there's -- on -- but it'll be all right let's get this thing you've -- yeah."

" Of those pretty well after they are gone."

" For those. Well. I had a little problem here because it's is so over. -- My -- is upstairs. -- now although worked pretty well this plus the gutter not enough for get a traps and on and not enough to give it purchased a drive down the -- probably no one little looks like it's quite enough. Then there's the -- not gonna work here I'll be back yet again at another gutter and you're one more time. Spybot say that my experience with -- been mixed worked okay on."

" My gutters which world wide enough. These -- still far and wide enough to fill the biggest ones of my hardware store it failed miserably they're working all the plastic ones crawled right out. It worked a little bit on this one right here on the metal and it's still climbed out. The tread came off there's all this stupid here and the other thing. My driveway. There's stuff everywhere. So yeah you're gonna they're gonna be clean but what this stuff gonna fall that's going to fall on the roof of going back in the gutter that'll all of your patio or on the side of your house bottom line here. -- the size of your daughter. Frankly. After you put your gutters even if it doesn't work I don't think you're going to be able to return."

" Outspoken part of the problem there all the sludge from the flat roof. Hopefully you know if you -- leaves incentive to look in your gutters and work a lot that are now coming up. Natural disaster takes that your house not to any problems we're gonna show you how to back up your data online and not just in your house which can of course from program to get bloody there you get the idea the first.

" My life jacket it's I really needed. -- Why didn't. I've got a really big screen and it islanders aren't."

" This episode of Tekzilla and the falling back -- that -- are brought his side wrote that the world's first storage robot and easiest way to protect your. Drove all expands forever and its Award winning with the highest rated story. Good -- start."

" back updating your house has yet -- we've obviously -- hammer that if if you like all the family photos -- on a single notebook and your point here. Your host now -- something catastrophic goes announces a fire that. Earthquake hurricane hurricane after they want but they you know and that's. No. I've been through floods floods -- flood -- yeah. If your house floods or Barnes -- program or whatever it is right that that drive you in the backed up drive to your data can get destroyed this is back. This is what interesting like when you are being about online backups are greatly and double up. On your data so in the idea is that you know I'm -- view them motivated data comes on line dot com whoever them IP and in -- right -- the -- area of Kansas. And their underground and it's you know it's a bunker it's like a bomb proof bunker in the middle of nowhere and -- places. I've been a couple of actually. Well it's. It's pretty -- it's like that -- the most paranoid person who ever knew. Got to design a building to keep servers say. In some cases it's like mom's closet and it's pretty you know week in -- a lot of cases actually just some incredible stuff. To do basically insulate the computers and the Dina from the universe right it's pretty wild stuff. Yeah I'd be you know it's his its its sounds funny right but you know if you think about everybody who had computers. That we're in New Orleans or on the east coast before it goes through war in fury and you know of Oklahoma in your -- it's off -- In other a lot of online services out there then back up information online. When the more popular ones is carbon night."

" Which has received high marks in reviews from PC world but. We like what your fellow viewer Jerry wrote an and he said before I started attending classes and -- 2006 I purchased at your subscription card night. Format. It backed everything up without any -- I don't have to worry for my new computer it took about a week to back up at fifty -- I threw on it mostly pictures and -- and."

" It's pretty good mean actually yes it you know with a pro -- wrote in the news a bunch of your actually used and we should point out here that your upload speed to an online server is DD. By the upload speed Internet connection. Thus lower your DSL or cable modem or heavens forbid satellite connection is the longer it's gonna take to upload -- Its -- that -- use -- once restore bigger corrupted files but it is fairly painless and it's a really easy process to match your files up the only downside is if you had. Gigabytes and gigabytes of files it's gonna take a long time to move all those files back up your PC. Why does -- at 200 plus gigabytes of data backed up including fifty gigabytes of home pictures. He says he's experienced hard drive failure in the plants and matter of fact losing all his family pictures from the sun 2003 -- And he's been -- back. Now for those of you mentioned Mozy let us know using it for backups because -- girlfriend uses the free version of -- the two gigabyte limit on the free version covers Oliver important school files. But she definitely hate it there's the -- it -- that navigator constantly that are back up as out of decently won't back up on its own. And mosey seems to slow down or tablet even when it's -- the low priority usable in the shot fifty bucks a year for car overnight but she definitely agrees occur tonight is way better so I think here right now."

" Now one that found an indefinite conversation that's how to do it with care and girlfriend."

" This alliance is the moves toward an op. So that's asbestos one instance of of Mozy -- media paid version is faster if you use -- let us know or an accurate speaker."

" I -- and now it's time for a code red."

Places and doppler world leaking out intact it hasn't been popping up here I'd -- And currently -- and I bet that's credit for anything else. I'll add on that -- and I'm just fine you can yeah. Coming -- Intel has got a new USB EEL modem and we're gonna show it but first. -- Haven't gotten out gadget guys -- shot for this holiday that are. -- The exterior isn't funny and -- he announced it. The airline. Stock market update there or. Not -- constantly here's. Especially. And it. Let's start. With 800 bucks. More."

" Hey thanks to go any reaching out sponsoring Tekzilla if you make an impact on line you would godaddy.com. Dot com -- is those 199 plus world plus those fast and easy website -- is much more. And content fine TEK five when you check out and seeing an additional ten dollars off in the order of forty dollars or more. Yeah are."

" Easy medium and constantly. Basically the wireless connections for -- to the best you providers. And this is the the current example my fabulous you seventh when he says that until wireless makes it and this is one person -- So they're new one just came out is you seven point seven which is this guy. Much smaller -- I was surprised how much smaller is that a couple other interesting things obviously there's a new design. One of the things I -- doesn't seem to go there it is there's the access for the external antenna if you -- one. I can GPS functionality. Built in right. And how to -- in an."

" Mostly just look at the screen right so. The fight that I've got him unplugged and I've got my connection here and it basically sets of the services -- it -- yours restaurant behind so the idea is you can use it with. You know windows line Google earth and a bunch of others GPS services and functions axis of GPS device and my understanding it's got a full GPS device inside of it. -- trying to learn a little bit more about that. It works shockingly well inside of her building which makes me think that doing location based on cell towers that. The other things kind of strange about this one actually is it's cuts. The kind of like it's into one device because you can put the a media as the caller and it's a micro SD card in the pain -- Four X well if you want to pay for a quirky car right and that's that's an -- but that's the one that's the -- I I didn't actually see one of those for sales -- manual search -- but you know basically an -- and removable storage so it's it's a pretty it's kind of a funny -- Clinton devices when nice things compared to the U 720. Is they actually have pretty good selection of accessories you seventh when he didn't have much in the box that you said -- seven. It's gotten device years you conservative connected on the back -- your notebook it's gonna USB extension cable. In that and it's got a you know -- which I think we'll bizarre but apparently useful. Well yeah or their iPods. So there you motives pain. It's a little strange but it's actually not -- is totally -- and -- off. Stranger anywhere and then had a new version of the clock around your neck. The but it's actually it's kind of a much more complete kit that was in the an earlier version is USB one because. -- a bunch of Mac notebooks in my life which don't have PC card -- basically. Competing devices they have PC cards built into them. You know what he should knows you're out of the big city your area with like full -- medio Colbert politically ran a coverage it scales back to you read. Currencies is zero hand one XRTZ. One expert who he is really slow. Like hundred KB PS. You do you typically used to go to bed with us here we got 744 K demo that's pretty quick. You know in theory the max is like three mega bits -- the scene that. But and occasionally happens -- and they -- it 500. Is pretty normal if you're -- and -- like CS for example as a whole -- people logging on it's a sort of a shared connection -- the speed drops precipitously."

" So the question for you with person like me hat's singular. -- service myself on I had a map. Right so if I'm wannabes to act like you know us kind of for a bundle plan will legs yes get this it's only take it and that's not right --"

" me here's here's here's kind of the issue right is. I went with Vista reason that -- whispering -- is because. Normally in the past doesn't that Verizon and was partly to tether device I use my cell phone tethered that my notebook. He uses kind of external you know sort of mode until we actually did with my last two phones. On Cingular I've not you know you know I've spent a lot of time life hacks a lot of you know biased weeks. And could not manage to do any kind of tender in -- file. So I decided to bite the bullet and get the faster speed also I want and they that you medio -- which would have required by. You know much fancier phones and actually wanted and so I've actually been six bucks a month just for unlimited access. Now you can play around if you you know search around. With Howard forums and see do a search for your phone in tendering lord you know you know dial up our. For everybody that road again and there are a ton of you there are a lot of Zune news and title audience -- made it abundantly clear that the Zune can download any podcast you want all right for the screen right now go to via podcast button. And it basically you're gonna cut and paste. The html link from the RSS feed that you want to down. Now first of all in my defense I want to say that. The documentation -- we like to call the manual for the Zune sucks and on one confrontation isn't any better and to the stuff I did find online. Made it sound like you can only use -- cans that were already existed and so my apologies you can download any podcasts or video casts you one. And to use some people seem to think we are saying you could only play music. They comes off of the -- in marketplace. You can any MP3 any unprotected W may file you can feed in years he would protected WMA files and -- files music you paid for to download. If it's not from the Zune marketplace it's not gonna work on the zip so MP3 WI -- wherever it's from if it's not protected it'll work fine on it. Please stop sending you --"

" My apologies. For the average viewer -- man you did your -- okay. It reads what is that strange green one lightning on the wall -- white and there every episode. If you and me it would provide. Peace quiet. And not. Job it's an ugly no admit exhibit and then. And really and doll and it actually couple more ugly dog on this that. And I would I would also just put it out and that kind of funny Patrick and we -- That totally and -- them. -- now. I mean now."

From my bought one recently and the case not another bot in another brand and it didn't actually fit. -- in the union holes in the wrong spot for the for the -- collecting media headphone Jack. You're like -- Actually saying. Well that's just a regular Norton and -- use that would in. -- basically like. You mock or -- it into the the purpose of this which -- about.

" Why do people actually kind happens to the Wii is people soon people who -- with headphones on hand serve.

Oops you can use or would -- attack you. It's a very northern California. Period any now."

" Whatever you think. It is like obscure reference day we've also -- on the Apple McCarthy Hubert system that failure to agree though that building studio feature hammering and screaming and cursing. That would be Randolph having trouble you control panel. And now when did you play around with is. And -- as he drives solid state drive from Samsung are gracious enough alone as one. And this is some people and asking about for the first show in notebooks the super expensive hellish expensive immediate praise for that. And I have here in an external drive enclosure and that's this with the drugs like looks like a regular three happens it happens to -- half inch. Notebook drive but instead of being filled with a spinning disk and actually has rows of memory chips so estimates -- there's no moving parts inside and what's really interesting about that we're gonna cut to the fabulous movie playing a movie playing while this normally. If you have these sort of low and drive and something as simple as the vibration on a plane went into the digital do this or -- great rotors lot of my operations. It's gonna skip right of doing something like this is usually really bad of a heart attack -- time. I noticed something it's like not even basic. Sound. Yeah. So it's kind of nice you know in a rough environment so what we'll play around the sort of sort of car PC is. So -- it's not going to die. So put that up to me -- export now. Here's a thing there she purchased right about thousand dollars. And I -- that this is a whopping. 64 gigabytes so capacity is gonna be lower than rotating media traditional hard drive and it's gonna be vastly more expensive so -- about a thousand you -- you know invited usually they're going to be an upgrade to its Dell notebook or something. The one -- you know from the wonderful machines on the -- or even number of other brands of notebooks out there you title like a thousand dollar upgrade their super expensive right now. Now flash from memory prices drop going to expect these prices drop to sub 500 dollars for the prize that. Excellent it's my next next here yet and move to -- migrating yet. Performance is actually really interesting writes he. Slower than a traditional hard drive read speed and much much faster like -- production faster and what's really interesting is the access time -- time things totally fine do you want grab it and adapting to the CPU is. Impossibly fast like want to milliseconds or so the performance the read performances great -- performance not so hot so if you like capturing video you know it's going to be slow the regular hard drive. If you're reading stuff these are pretty fast. Good more performance issue we've accidentally took great extreme or or on the show tunes which case the guys over there really -- from benchmark in these. It's kind of really interesting with the performance. It's that you can expand. As well in in it as what's gonna happen is I think there they're basically as the memory chips. Increasing capacity right in theory you created in it will pull the picture in picture periods yet there. You can actually d.s honor all those like forty easily in tiny little soldering points maybe. But other than that so much you can do a lot of like you know surface mount components offering you know -- upgrade. Was interesting is. The basically is an algorithm. That randomly tennis he is indeed on different parts of the drive you have to really worry about you know fragmenting on the drives because that access speed so class.

" My gutters which world wide enough. These -- still far and wide enough to fill the biggest ones of my hardware store it failed miserably they're working all the plastic ones crawled right out.

I've been using Mozy's free 2gb storage for about 6 months on my main system. The system is a 800 mghz Athlon with 640 megs of ram and I have it set to only backup when I'm not using the system. I've never experienced slowness from the mozy backup program (unless of course I'm trying to use bittorrent as Mozy is trying to backup and then it's just an issue of too little bandwidth from my DSL provider)

I thought Carbonite looked a little nicer and a bit cheaper, but I'm still using Windows 2000 on that system and Carbonite will not load on anything older than Windows XP. Mozy works great though and I'm thinking about paying for it to backup my stuff.

Perhaps I'm just used to running slow though. I'm thinking about building my own version of the 500 dollar pc so I can get my geek on again. That computer was my first DIY computer.

Ever since episode 9, i have been waiting for the day where our Techno Savvy :) :) Jessica was going to be putting together the $500 PC. It is with great disappointment that she will not be doing it. Maybe you can organize a combined effort and have both Neha & Jessica can get together and build it.[/FONT][/SIZE]

Best episode yet. Fewer things covered, but spending a few more minutes on each.

Just wondering if we have to have comic book/graphic novel in every show.

Also when can we see Patrick bring back the BFH and bust up something?!!! :)

Good ep, even though they STILL have the stupid fake sponsor at the start.
