Hi!

At the present moment I have a P4 2.53 ghz and so far as I am concerned it uses a lot of electricity. So I wonder if I can go in on BIOS settings and slow down the speed for example down to 200-600 mhz over the night when I just have it on for downloading stuff, to reduce my bills on electirity ...

Hi!

I often have to reinstall my windows xp because it - after a while - runs slower or because it has been infected with some virus or trojans. Its really a hard work to reinstall all my applications and drivers and make the same configuration over and over again.

Some years ago I made a copy of ...

Hi!

What is the main and the practical differences between a hub, a switch and a router?

Router: Providing two or more computers having an internet connection ...

Okay.

I looked up some live cds and have downloadad mandrakemove version...its pretty cool.

But one thing I always try to figure out:

1. Why are there so many differents Linux such as Mandrake, Redhat, Slackware and others?
2. What are the differences between them?

Thanks for your reply. Yes, I know that there are some remote control programs that you can use to control a computer like I was sitting in front of it. But my purpose with this whole VPN-connection is to enlarge my knowledge about it and maybe use it for some security reason later in the future ...

Have some of you used Remote Administrator 2.1 (2.2)?
It is a very fast remote control program and very easy to use...and I have to say it again..it is VERY FAST.

Have use VNC but think that is slower. Have I wrong?

But its worth giving a try...
