I have owned almost every model of Galaxy Note phone and written extensively about them. If you have read many of my other posts then you know of my appreciation for writing with digital pens. The Note and I were a match made in Heaven. Taking Samsung’s S-pen support bait and moving to the Fold […]
The 3D printers we have all become familiar with over the last ten years use an additive process to create objects from digital maps. The X,Y,Z mechanisms contained within their erector set frames, lay rows of molten plastic one on top of the other to build up structures millimeter by millimeter. They are fantastic machines […]
Sometimes it is necessary to add a few network ports in a room, on a table, or even in an office cube. We know that our network admins hate those little five port mini switches that we all pick up at BestBuy and plug-in behind the printer, but the two jacks they put in our […]
If you have ever moved Windows print services to a new server, chances are that you have been left wondering what to do with the old stuff left over on the client computers. GPOs make deploying printers a snap, but when it comes to removing them, you are on your own. Leaving the old printers […]

Until recently, I assumed that installing anti-virus on Windows […]
I’ve had a cellular capable smartwatch since the Samsung Gear S was released way back in 2014. I’ve grown to take the technology for granted. Recently, many of my family members acquired LTE capable smartwatches and listening to their comments and seeing how the devices have altered their routines inspired me to write about the […]
The Dell G3 laptop that I bought my son for Christmas last year has been a good choice. It runs all of his games, graphics editing, and CAD software with ease. A few months ago we doubled the RAM to 32GB and added another 1TB SSD so that he can run VMs for his development […]
You can use Outlook 2007 and newer to merge PST files. This process is useful if you have acquired somebody else’s mailbox export, or have numerous archive files that are difficult to deal with. You can not select a source PST that is in use by Outlook so you must close it first. If you […]
