Yes, as I’d said, “I might be a little concerned about the long-term abrasive effects of it, but given the results from so many people, I’d certainly give it a shot for a really dirty machine.”

I actually removes a small layer of the surface it is cleaning. The reason that Magic Eraser can clean where other cleaners cannot is that it is an abrasive.

Configuring Word 2007 to upload images has proven challenging (impossible in fact). How do you configure Word 2007 to upload images so that the hand-writing is posted too? Thx.

(more than 3000 stories/articles) when i finally put the wordpress version online (I had huge traffic), the site went down. so, a friend told me wp is very "database heavy". I tried to do Apache setting tuning, PHP.ini with wp-cache...nothing. I went back to geeklog and i using it...but i have another blog running WP too :P but my experience says that WP can't handle HUGE traffics. wp-cache never worked for me.

AMD, from my personal experience, makes terrible processors. They heat up quickly, dont have great battery life and they are not much cheaper or more expensive than the core duo from Intel. So why choose AMD? I have heard that from this tablet PC, this is one of the main problems. Many reviews are saying that the battery life is poor and the touchscreen does not have a natural writing feel compared to a CST tablet like Gateway. I own the Gateway and the writing feel is perfect if the pen was not so comfortable. I like my gateway but this has flaws too. The screen keeps on popping a seem and the bezel has a cheap feel. The keyboard is great, the screen is grainy, the laptop is heavy but the preformance is great. Comparing it to the HP which has all sorts of media controlls including a pop out remote controll. The touchscreen might not be so great. I dont think the preformance is as good as my gateway. The battery life is worse than my Gateway. The looks are better than the gateway and the screen is better than the gateway. The Gateway is HEAVY and CUMBERSOME. If I had to choose between the two, I would go for the HP since all you have to do to solve the heat problem is buy a chill mat.
