  1. Review - SetSfc

    1.00 (Jun 25, 2000)

    Jeremy, You're right. From the name of your app, I thought it's purpose was to set the size of the sfc cache. This is documented as I noted. My apologies for the misinterpratation. However, I was merely commenting on part of the review that called it undocumented. Even if it turned out that what your app does is documented, that doesn't mean it isn't helpful or useful.

    Best,
    JMV

  2. Comment - Zone Labs Seeks Beta Testers

    Zone Labs wants inexperienced users who can safely edit the registry and reinstall OS's. Sounds like they want to have their cake and eat it too. :o)

  3. Comment - Philips eXpanium in Stores

    After reading about it on BetaNews, I decided to swing by CC after work and buy one. (Hell, CC has a 30 day no questions asked return policy, so I might as well try it.) Like someone else mentioned, the salesperson had no idea about it and it wasn't on display. They did have three in their inventory though and they went back and got it. Since I didn't have a portable CD player and I really liked the idea of being able to play MP3 files burned onto CD, this device sounded like a good fit for me. It is more expensive than a portable CD player, but it is much cheaper than many MP3 players. And CD-Rs are much cheaper than the expansion memory cards of other players. So far I've been very pleased with it. I listened to it while riding on the DC Metro into work and on the bus. Both are pretty bumpy rides and it never skipped. Thus, if you want a portable CD player AND an MP3 player, give the EXP 103 a serious look. Thanks for the info BN. --- J. Vittone [MS-MVP]

    It gets even stranger. A friend sent me this when I told him about SP4 being available tomorrow. (I tried it and he's right)

    It has been available since June 13 at :
    http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/

    Pick Visual Studio for the product, and any OS.
    Also, pick "Sort by date".

    I downloaded it a few days ago...
