    My computer is dying.....

    Tom...I was referring to the cost of the laptop you linked to ($278).....you're also not getting an "upgrade" version when you buy a new computer....although the OEMs get a deep discount.

    My computer is dying.....

    Tomcat....probably 1/3 of the cost of the laptop is for Windows 7...but yes, computers are getting to the "disposable"/appliance stage.

    My computer is dying.....

    Hey Tomcat/Chari....the processor on that toshiba is only a single core....if all you're going to be using the computer for is internet/email/wordprocessing...it's perfectly adequate. The windows version is also only 32 bit, versus 64 bit. Most of the computers now are dual or quad core...

    128 people, 15 miles W of Lukeville

    Bill....I have the same question....there have been news crews out there covering the problem....with Border Patrol agents as "tourguides". If we know where they are coming in...why can't we catch/stop them? We have UAV's partrolling the border areas, with infra red.....a couple of Apache...

    What does asking everyone going INTO Mexico if they have any guns or are taking $10K in have to do with securing the border? The recent arrests of the "straw" buyers of weapons probably prevented more guns from getting into Mexico and the hands of the cartels. My last trip down, there were at...

    Most businesses closed on the Malecon during the weekdays.

    Hey GringoZona....if you like Chinese, there is a decent one on Samuel Ocana at the corner of Constitution. Samuel Ocana is the the first light when you're coming into town (takes you to the condos). The restaurant is across the street from the Pemex station. No beach views obviously...but great...

    Most businesses closed on the Malecon during the weekdays.

    Although I'm not much of a fan of Capones (although I did have a great blackened grouper meal there last weekend), but I think they've been staying open. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Check out the Puesta del Sol restaurant (next to Playa Bonita Hotel/RV Park). There are...

    PC or MAC?

    If you're a teacher or student (or parent of a student), you can get CS5 Extended for about $190. It's worth taking a couple of classes at your community college on Photoshop to get the student discount. The version is not crippled in any way. I may do that when my daughter starts back up in...

    PC or MAC?

    Roberto.....that was "then".....a .psd or .tif or .dng is not pc or mac specific.... Definitely mac's were superior back about 10-20 years ago.....I think that the impression still holds over due to some "snobbery" nowadays.....and the "sexiness" factor, as some people refer to it. You're...

    PC or MAC?

    Not anymore....Photoshop/Lightroom work on both Macs and PC's....you can get excellent monitors for the PC and Windows is pretty stable (Win 7) now. I don't remeber the last time my computer crashed, and I sitll use Win XP Pro. Photoshop operates the same way on both machines (a couple of the...
