These are old technologies. If you are interested in building state of the art Pc, particularly for gaming and powerful network solution like server go for 1. GigaByte GA-965P-DQ6 Motherboard R 2. [url=http://www.intel.com/cd/products/services/emea/eng/desktop/processors/300131.htm?=emea:ggl|c2d_uk_brand|k6D85|s]Core 2 Duo Extrem[/url] 3. 2 x 1 SATA Hard Drive 500GB the motherboard come with RAID that is why you have R at the end of the motherboard name configure the RAID to 0+1 so you have 1TB bootable 4. Kingston DDR2 SDRAM 4 x 1GB total RAM 4GB 5. Motherboard come with PCI Express which supersede AGP Remember that the motherboard has its MBR running at 1066/800/533 MHz FSB. If you have a system like this you are safe for the next 2 years at least. Also the SATA HD is shifting data at the rate of 3000 Gb/sec compare to the old IDE of 100Mb/Sec and has a 7200Rpm with 16Mb buffer With £2500, I would build you a system like this including postage and package to any part of the world.

Always remember that e stands for electronic. Computer is an encoded electronic digital signals that can be send through an electronic copper wire. In early 90's when internet was commercialized and mosaic was the dominant web browser and ViolaWWW was just extincting. It use to be call Web-based commerce, which came to become ecommerce. So when you see an italized e in front of a noun, rest assure that it has got to do with the internet and it is pretentiously electronic transaction, which funds has to be transfer for the exchange of goods. Finally, if you can define stock and currency, prefix it with e, internet electronic transaction or generic ecommercce. |

adewaleafolabi is right. Be patient, usually PPP (Point to Point Protocol. Protocol encapsulating a connection to a TCP/IP network through a modem and a telephone line. ) error is network issues. Your network interface hence GPRS/Modem/CDMA is not able to establish a reliable connection to the network. This error is well known and documented in the error message of your ISP website for connection failure. |

@Mimoh It has been some time now I last heard from you. Sorry, I have been too busy lately. I will call you before Xmas. How is everything. I got your email regarding the Satellite project and I will email you soonest. How is business or work and life hope you are winning, if do doxology. Regarding JEE 5.0 fine grained concept is the separation of every object into one EJB more like cohesive programming in software engineering. All your objects like 1. Login 2. Shopping cart 3. Browsing 4. Catalog 5. Line item 6. Order 7. Confirmation (Messaging) All these objects are their own individual EJB. It is fine grained so that during maintenance and migration or system termination, running it parallel with other legacy or new EJB 6.0 (Who knows) would not pose myriad problems. Coarse grained is just the opposite more like coupling in software engineering. It is like a "fat" EJB, containing lots of application logic. Not very clever for integration and migration even most importantly maintenance. In coarse grained you see the lists of objects mentioned above will be in one EJB. There are pro's and con's to each approach - in general to speed and life cycle management by the container, coarse grained EJB's seem to be preferred to fine grained. Some have stipulated these reasons: Coarse grained: ====================== 1. CMP harder to set up 2. Simpler deployment 3. Less distribution 4. Fewer EJB calls - less network load, fewer transaction context 5. Potentially less reuse 6. Fewer objects for the application programmer to learn I hope this helps. I will call you this week OK. Take care |

Unfortunately many commercial web host company do not use this unsecured method of communication to their server. You could use it behind a proxy network if your administrator allows port 21 which, uses stateless protocol like http, https, ftp, gopher, mail, mms etc. Many host comapny enforces stronger access like SSH (Secure Shell), Rlogin etc. Like you rightly said MS caches all your communication with the remote server to facilitate the problems of stateless protocol ie (cookies). Hence, someone would still be able to see all your downloaded remote files. Use this method ONLY on a private machine. To work remotely used a software with ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) and binary protocol for transmitting your files. Don't get me wrong, your post is resourcefull and elegantly useful just to highlight some issues using internet explorer as a ftp client, not very clever. |

Warning!!! Remember, Spread betting or CFD's carries a high level of risk to your capital with the possibility of losing more than your initial investment and may not be suitable for all investors. Ensure you fully understand the risks involved and seek independent advice if necessary. [move]A wise man once said, never invest monies you cannot afford to lose[/move] In correlation to what I said above, the then USA president may die or assassinated and a new administration would come in and decide that military strike is out of the question that it would require diplomacy to resolve Iran issues. You would have lost £160, 000. |
| Business › Re: --- Is Forex Trading Real? by sbucareer(f): 9:40pm On Nov 27, 2006 |
@Glade.x It is like buying shares from say coca cola or First Bank of Nigeria. The thing is that you trust them to use your money and other share holder monies and invest it for high profit returns. At the end of the year or quarter, if they make profits they will share it among their share holders and it goes without saying that if they make loses they would also share it among their share holders. But in the UK and the US buying a share will require that you would have to pay income tax on your profits and also pay commission to bank or financial institutions that conduct the selling and buying of the shares. It is like giving hedge fund managers your money to help you invest it in high risk investment and you had to pay them wether they make profit or not 7% of your total investment every year. When they make money for you, you would have to pay them 20% of the income and still pay income tax to the government of that country. To me and others, this is not very effective. That is why online betting has become popular include CFD,s. Remember before the popularity of the internet hedge fund manager uses this tool spread betting and CFD,s to leverage strategic risk investment. Ten years ago investment banking and other high risk investment organizations like Goldman Sachs etc uses online betting to invest on underlying share to actually manage high returns with inventors resource. Because they were the only firm that has access to high speed internet access to the ticker market like NASDAQ, FTSE, LSE etc. Now, broadband and other high speed internet access has enable many firms like Finspread IGINDEX and other organization and customers to use these tools that investment banking and other hedge fund managers use to leverage maximum returns on investment. The good thing about spread betting and CFD's is you don't pay any income tax and no hedge fund manager fees. All your investment returns are all yours. But remember that you are just trading on the underlaying market, which means you do not actually own any of the derivative or indices just that you are only trading on the underlying price. Example ------------------------ Let say you are interest in trading commodities and you choose a symbol like Brent Crude Oil -Feb 2007. You do your research and find that USA is not going to give up with Iran policy to the production of nuclear plant to power it electric grid. American is convinced that Iran nuclear plant is beyond just power grid. It will enrich it waste with uranium to produce nuclear bombs and America is definitely redeay to stop them either with military strike or other strong measure and you are convinced in the next three months something will happen in Iran like war. You know to fight require energy like fuel to power the air fighter, armored tanks, etc. that that will push the fuel prize up. Well, let say this is your conclusion and you make a decision to trade Brent Crude Oil - Feb 2007 Let say at the time these things were happing, a barrel was at 5750. To buy say 5750 for £0.50p you would require a deposit of £2,875 but spread betting only ask of 5% of your total investmentith and that is called margin. In spread betting or CFD, you would require £143.75 to open this trade. You assumption was right America did invade Iran and it cause the oil price to rise to say 7350. 7350 - 5750 = 1600 * £0.50p you made a profit of £800. Imagine you had money to bet £100 per point you would have 7350 -5750 = 1600 * 100 = £160, 000 tax free. There are other derivatives you can invest liek Microsoft, Dell computers etc. Tip remember window Vista would officially come out sometime June 2007 and that would drive Dell market shares up because lots of people would want to upgrade and look at Microsof compatibility, it does not really give old PC a chance. Keys ========= 1. CFDs, CFDs or Contracts For Difference are a leveraged equity derivative security that allow users to speculate on share price movements, without the need for ownership of the underlying shares. 2. Financial spread betting lets you back your trading judgement without having to buy the underlying instrument or product you want to trade. How? Basically, like any other bet, a spread bet is a bet on an unknown outcome made at odds set by someone else - in this case, a spread betting company. The spread betting company takes an instrument and quotes two prices; let's say, 101 - 103. These two prices, which they call a spread, are effectively a bid and offer price. The offer price (103) is the price you can buy at, the bid price (101) is the price you can sell at. The spread represents a prediction of a future outcome. And because spread bets have an expiry date, it's a prediction of a future outcome within a set time frame (although you can close out your position at any time before expiry). What you need to decide is whether to buy or sell the spread betting company's prediction of the future outcome. |

| Computers › Re: Parity Code by sbucareer(f): 3:27pm On Nov 25, 2006 |
Parity code is a bit added to transmitted binary signal either byte or word to reveal errors in the transmission. Let take a printer for example, using a parallel port, the printer will perform what we call handshake to agree on the mode of byte transmission with the other device (Pc). It also include the agreement of parity code for transmission. If the transmitted byte is wrong the printer would automatically know by the used of the agreed parity code. <-----------1 byte------------------> ------------------------------------- | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1| ------------------------------------- The red bit is used to calculate the error byte transmitted. New computers uses 8 bytes to form a word. Reference: foldoc the online computer dictionary |

I do not need to tell you what he has achieved, although some of it was over exaggerated by his website. We should also remember that he won the 1989 Gordon Bell prize, a prize from the IEEE, for his use of the Connection Machine supercomputer to help analyse petroleum fields. He received 1000 USD for this award. He may have been refused a doctoral programme at the university of Michigan, you and I may not know the extent to the issue. Many website have their own account to his achievements and exaggerated claims. The underlying factor is that he did graduate from the University of Michigan as an Engineering student, he did win a Gordon Bell prize from the IEEE, for his use of the connection machine supercomputer to help analyse petroleum fields, which he received a USD 1000. Don't misunderstand me; I am not speaking on his defence for depicting some sentimental misguided information in his website. But we should look at his case objectively and analyse and congratulate his achievements and not use the weapon of subjective and comparative judgement, like the Michigan state university did. Word is such a powerful tool, we should also realise that his is a Nigerian and not just and Igbo man. We should concentrate on his achievements and try and correct people and the rest of the world regarding this issue. Everybody is innocent till found guilty, always remember that, no court has find him guilty or are investigating to find him guilty. All these allegations is based on the information he depicted on his website. He may claim that the website was not written by him. Now, what would you do? |

| Programming › Re: JCA 1.0 Connector & Threads by sbucareer(f): 6:40pm On Nov 24, 2006 |
Is like I know what you are trying to develop. It is complex. Do you work for a vendor that develop J2EE or application server? Writing Connector is a complex undertaking. First you have to scope down your requirements. Are you connecting to an EIS or Web Server or application server. From your architecture I can see you are interest in connecting to USSD (Unstructured Supplementary Services Data), particularly for a GSM network. I would assume your connector is a bi-directional service. Also are you anticipating any TS (Transaction Service)? Here is an overview of a typical Connector to a EIS using Adapter. I need to understand your GSM network interface? What sort of EIS is your GSM gateway? Do you want a bi-directional service? Would your network handle a TS? You would probably need like four API's: 1. Client Interface 2. Adapter 3. USSD Interface 4 Connector(s) You could help a little bit if you could give me an overview, I may be able to help you more than you think

First, I will say to upload the UML architecture or cross section of your UML architecture so we can build a picture of what you are trying to do. I would suggest without fully understaning your project to make the connection a singleton class. Using static do not always work in a multi threaded environment as the only single entity after the death of the parent class could still have a reference to the live static object. Example of a singleton class public class Singleton { private static Singleton instance = null; protected Singleton() { // Exists only to defeat instantiation. } public static Singleton getInstance() { if(instance == null) { instance = new Singleton(); } return instance; } } This way you will always be sure that every thread instance of your connector is destroyed. You can force destroy implementation in your Singleton class by using the finally keyword in Java. If I do not answer your question provide more scope to your project i.e. UML diagram or a RTP (Rich Text Picture) to fully understand your question. |

Write a wireless discovering network application. It will discover and install device into a network systems without the user interferring. Motivation, imagine you come into an office with your laptop, smartphone, PDA or any wireless device dongle the user do not need to attached it to the network system by looking for installation drivers or any stupid pop-up installation wizard. The software you will develop would automatically and easily installed it without the user ever knowning or interrupting the installation. You can use it to build a community of network devices that interact with each other, like a WAN or MAN. The application of JINI is vast. Just understand the specification first and the application is huge, especially in relation to networking. Look here reference on wireless networking. Another reference is sun web site |

I will say use 802.11g belkin Here is the configuration. Networking ----------------------------------- Connectivity technology Wireless Networking type Network adapter Data link protocol IEEE 802.11g Data transfer rate 54 Mbps Bandwidth 2.4 GHz Antenna Integrated Networking standards IEEE 802.11g It comes with a CD-ROM software and installation guide just follow the installation wizard. As soon as the device is installed in your Pc it will automatically pop-up a dialog window once it has seen a network connection. Alternatively you can go to the program files and start the interface. The installation guide has configuration and usage guide, refer to your manufacture documentation for your wireless card. I do not understand what you meant by antenna. Wireless is actually a technology that uses antenna signal to communicate. Although not necessary as many NIC and PCMCIA do not have antenna. They communique through electromagnetic spectrum using the frequency band of 802 on a subband of 11g wavelength. People that do Electrical Electronic Engineering will explain better than me. The point is that it uses a radio technology. But the Bandwith is larger to a normally radio signal i.e. it uses 2.4GHz |
