Glad to report to our orchard readers that the eMac included with the two Windows machines yesterday was actually fun to install. After using my Linux/Windows laptop to configure the router every machine was restarted and all devices performed without a major hitch. The Linksys wireless equipment was easy to install, as usual, and the Apple had no problem auto correcting to make nice with the router. Did get a broadcast signal from an adjacent Netgear wireless device located next door. Wow, wardrivers haven in Tupelo, Mississippi! Who 'da thought it? No, I will not give out the address. BTW, if you are like me and rarely see Apple computers here's a tip about eMacs: You open the CD drive with a keyboard button that is located at the top right corner, lol! That Steve Jobs, he's a real clown, huh?
Up late, up early. Many projects. Robin, the pixs are in the can and will be posted soon. Have a casual day.
