Yippeee! The new firefox is there!

It comes i a complete different look, for example the Forwards/ Backwards buttons. All icons in the navigation Bar have also changed. I apologize for the bad picture Quality, but was not able to get a better picture on Google images...

Actually I havent found any major changes, exept of the address bar:
when you type in a letter, firefox automatically filters out your recent visited sites, containig this specific letter. So whats special about that?
As you know from other browsers, they only filter out the websites you have typed in. Firefox 3 filters out all websites you've opened! It doesnt matter if you've typed it in or not. Another cool innovation is the text marking. It doesnt mark the text in a complete Color bar, it just changes the color of the letters in light blue, but this only worked on one website yet.

Anyway, it looks a little bit cleaner and more modern than the old version, because it has a brighter color and they mixed up the shapes, for example the Forward/ Backward buttons: back is round, forward is square with round sides. This give it a much better look.
Here is a tip, that most of you don't know: Disable the DOM storage function.
The next generation cookies, called DOM cookies, can take up to 5 mb's of storage, and i've heard, that you cant delete them easyly. Here is the way to disable the storage:

Type in about:config in the address bar of firefox
If a warning appears, simply click on I'll be careful, I promise
Then you look for the entry dom.storage.enabled, and look at the Value (on the right side of the entry)
If it says false you're set, if it says True you just right click the enty, and click Toggle.
Now it should say false, and you can surf without saving those DOM Beasts.

hope this helped y'all

Hi Folks!

Here is my first Tech review:

The HTC Shift! This little handy UMPC
runs Windows Vista, and the PDA software
Snap VUE. You can run your normal apps, like
with your regular laptop, and you have a PDA with
Cell Phone. What would you want more ?
Here some Specs (Wiki)

• Dual Operating System
  • Microsoft Windows Vista Business 32-Bit (notebook mode)
  • SnapVUE (PDA mode)
• Processor
  • Intel A110 Stealey CPU 800 MHz notebook mode, 400MHz PDA mode.
• Memory and Storage
  • 1 GB RAM (notebook mode)
  • 64 MB RAM (PDA mode)
  • 40/60 GB HDD drive
  • SD card slot
• Intel GMA 950 graphics

  • Triband UMTS / HSDPA (data only): UMTS 850, UMTS 1900, UMTS 2100
  • Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g
  • Bluetooth v2.0

There is just one stupid thing: The price! I costs 13880 $ on Ebay!
But this thing is totally handy. No more big Laptop- Bags etc.

I think Phoning with the HTC Shift will be a bit difficult without headphones.

I will wirite more soon, but I have to do some more important stuff.

take care,

computec

I love this machine...

Hi There!

This is my awesome HP Ipaq h4150. With this thing you can do everything: Go on youtube, play SNES (Emulator) , read your E-mails etc.
I have no Idea how I managed my life without it. The cool thing about it is, that it has Wireless Lan on it, so I can skype with it around the house without sitting in front of my Laptop. The other cool feature is, that you have your "Work-horse" , your Video player, MP3 player , your calendar, your address book and your , let's say, Phone with you. There is no need for 1000 devices anymore.

Quick tip: You can still get this PDA (or its now called "Classic handheld" ) at Ebay. Get it if you can, because this thing is crazy!!

Have a nice day,

Hi!

I'll now test the picture function:
This picture was taken from me in
May 2008 in our garden with my
Olympus E 500. I edited it with Olympus
Studio (Test version).
In the future you'll also get to see pictures
like that, because i love photographing.

Bye,

Hi!

This is my first post (WOW!).
I will still have to learn a lot of things like putting in images etc, but I will figure this out very soon!


First of all , I'm a computer pro: So when you have a computer question, i will try to answer you very soon. I also like flying on Flight simulator X with my Saitek Pro Flight Yoke and Rudder System.

In summer 2008 I will visit the USA, and you will probably find lots of posts and Images about this vacation.

So folks, thats enough for today..

yours,

Computec
