Does anyone know the best set of circumaural 'phones around $70 or less? I got the Koss Pro/4AA, but they are for things like amplifiers and studio equipment (handy, but not what I'm looking for). Sort-of looking for something that can work with a CD player. Much appreciated. Someoneinmyheadbutit'snotme 00:37, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
Firefox looks really weird at Wikipedia. It's fine on other websites. Anyone know how to fix it? See pic. Thanks WP 01:52, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
Thanks everyone. I *am* using 2.0. The "build" thing is caused by Nightly Tester Tools. The problem is caused by my " classic 1.5 look" theme. WP 07:59, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
Hello all. Are there any legitimate ways of working and making money over the internet? I can find a job online, but how can I find an online job online? I've looked into survey taking and the like, and it seems pretty fishy. I'm a full time college student without a car, so I really need some information about working from my computer over the internet. Are there any job opportunities available? Thank you for your help. 72.228.54.222 04:24, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
The thing about online jobs is that it really depends on what you want/can do. If you happen to be incined in the computing field, there are some good places like rentacoder that allow you to make bids on projects. Pretty nice, because you get to choose what you work on. Projects range from simple things like making logos, to extreemly time-consuming programming jobs. - Ridge Racer 04:41, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
I'm looking to buy a DSL modem and a router. Is there any downside to the 2-in-1 router+modem combination units? The two I was looking at purchasing are the Netgear DG834 and the D-Link DSL-504G. Would they be wise purchases? Are there any other places I can find cheap routers in Australia? Thanks. 202.10.86.63 04:35, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi guys, I am trying to create an xml file called banner.xml as per the instructions here. The text for the xml file is here. Can someone tell me how I can create the xml file. This software stuff is beyond me (sigh) -- Lost (talk) 14:11, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

Does anyone know of a computer mouse whose entire upper shell is made of carbon fiber? I recently got a carbon fiber laptop that I'm quite happy with, and would like to have the same material in my next mouse. There are rumours that some of Logitech's mice are made from carbon fiber, but from images I've seen it looks like the buttons are usually plastic (polycarbonate?), with the grip parts along the sides possibly carbon fiber. - User:Samsara
Interesting, may I ask where you accuired this carbon fiber laptop from? - Ridge Racer 04:35, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
Carbon fiber? why! If you want some cool looking and feeling material, try the magnesium/titanium composite that thinkpads are made of... sleek black and always cold to the touch -- froth T C 19:09, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
Please I want to make a big programming Project in VB 6 or VB.NET . So Can provide me with internet site or institute to provide me with this complete code of project.
Each time I search using Google, I get a strange and uninvited pop-up from OIN. I can neither block nor get rid of it. I'm hoping I'm not the only one dealing with this, and that someone can help me strike this from my computer. Thanks. Wolfgangus 17:45, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

How many songs can the Video Ipod hold?
If you had mp3s, theoretically, how many songs could you fit on? X Mac Davis ( SUPERDESK| Help me improve) 04:37, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
When I was able to run my live Ubuntu CD, linux could not mount the HDs. Is this because they are NTFS formatted? -- Username132 ( talk) 23:30, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
If the computer in question has USB, go buy a 1GB USB key for $20USD. Ubuntu can read the NFTS drives and you can keep any writable files on the USB key. This does not solve all possible problems, but it does solve a large subset of your problems. - Arch dude 01:08, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
