It’s a weird issue since wouldn’t provide their fingerprint software in recovery partition although your system has fingerprint reader. And HP website doesn’t good at providing information about it that much. It’s intuitive and easy to find drivers enough for Windows, so it won’t bother you about missing any. However, after I had tried several times, all drivers and apps available in the product page are not enough to make the machine perform as good as HP factory image. [...] Continue Reading…

If you prefer the fast way (less secure), Vista does provide an easy GUI for configure this.   Here is the what you have to call. I just wonder why they don’t provide this in normal User Account page. Then you just to select the account you want to access automatically, then uncheck this:-   It will ask you a password of the selected account. Then next time, you restart the computer, you will never [...] Continue Reading…

This was not my issue until today. I just got my hand on tx2500z and as usual HP provides us tons of good & crap pieces of software. I decided to live with this configuration for a while and see how HP manages on its own image. So that I could review it as it really is out-of-the-box. However, one annoying thing I found so far was Adobe Updater from Acrobat Reader was popping up to download newer [...] Continue Reading…

If you guys are familiar with Live Mesh but no need of remote connection what soever, this might catch your attention. Dropbox is basically an online storage service–2GB for now–which has cross-platform client running natively on Windows, Mac, and surprisingly Linux also. After couple days of trying it, it just works. There is no fancy feature or customized location yet. But it gets job done with less memory than Mesh, of course. It works flawlessly so far [...] Continue Reading…

This might be the day Google trying to complete their circle after playing around web applications from the beginning. Google Chrome is the browser based on AppleWebkit, the core that drives Safari nowadays. It sure is the proved solid browser. Now it’s only on Windows OS. I could tell that it’s surprisingly fast, clean and nice UI. It’s also imported all my bookmarks from Firefox without a hitch. I’m pretty [...] Continue Reading…

After Kohjinsha SC3 got my attention from its design, it failed me completely when coming to battery life–2 hours or so. Now Viliv, the company I also never heard of, come up with Viliv S7 claiming that it would suck less juice and be able to achieve 7-9 hours on single charge! And more importantly its form factor won any of their class, IMHO. Whoa! What an impressive first look [...] Continue Reading…

All P*lm developers should be aware, P*lm will follow you guys and ask you “politely and forcibly by the power of the law” to drop off “p” word you are using as your trademark or whatsoever.

This is what Dmitry, one of the most talented P*lm OS developers, had faced. As a result, he had to move his web site from http://palmpowerups.com [06/07/2005] to http://PlmPowerups.com to avoid such a confusion (perhaps because P*lm couldn’t do any better than him?) and [...] Continue Reading…
