well you can with windows sharing after you setup a basic network (with a network switch or crossover cable (google it) just have a folder that you can dump to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/304040
I hope this helps
if I need to move files at work or onto a unknown computer (or one I do not trust which is all of them) I burn to a CD or DVD then shred them afterwards

Avoid the G series keyboard from Logitech. For some reason my one is killing my typing skills (about to throw it in the harbor)

Hey Pete it has been a while and I am wondering on how you are going with the house ?

being smothered to death with the chabbies of 40 young virgins (all legal age of course)
You want to die while playing world of warcraft ?

I know I am going to get shot for this but I like to know if anyone here have ever ski/snowboarded in Korea. I like to think about a Japan/Korea/HK trip.
snow/geek trip
fly to japan. board then head south then take the boat over the ditch board some more then on the way home spend a couple of days in HK and even spend a day buying stuff in Shenzhen (electronic parts at the SEG supermarket)
any one have any links or ideas ?

Well on my first trip I went in mid to late Dec. I was a day short from the first major dump of the season and despite the fact there was little snow (as far as the locals said) there was enough to keep a first timer happy) on the 2nd trip (and future trips due to work commitments in Jan) I go during FEB. it's like Dear Penthouse for boarders
I would like to think about a small local trip (around Tokyo area) in late Dec but I don't know how things will be then

a bit late to the party but

I was in Thredbo about a week ago. the snow was patchy in area but enough to keep me happy (must not take edges on patches where there was no snow)
I think there is a bit of a dump over the past 24 hrs so I am thinking about another trip
-
They do but I think there is a very tiny resort down there (like a single lift or something along thouse lines)
On the news one year for the Sydney to Hobart. They where doing the weather brief in sydney where it was 40c (in summer) and they where saying there was snow on the peaks in tas

I am heading to to Thredbo for a 3 day trip on Monday
-
yeah I get cover each time I go overseas on a snow trip.
But as far as I understood my policy it would never cover me if the case was for a pre existing problem (like my diabetes) that being said the cover was for incase I broken something boarding (and needed a expensive evac to aus)
-
Well I have a 3 day trip booked at Threadbo (I have not been there for a few years) I hope to have a couple of more trips but I like to focus on another trip to Japan (2 weeks to a month I wish for)
-
I will visit in Feb..
Japan dose not need a handout. They want people to spend at their shops, drink at their bars and ski or board at their resorts.
I am still planning my trip bit thats a long way off at this stage.
I have to admit after thinking about it. I would invest in some grey matter into what I would need to do in-case there is another problem over there.
That and pack the abseil kit... The hotel I was staying in at Tokyo did not have a staircase..

Not a Japan one. But I had someone comment ince that we suck in radiation in from the sky cause the amount of satellite dishes (TVRO) at our earthstation
-
At the end of it I just treat it like 'white noise'
-
well the media are going nuts over white smoke coming out of one of the number 3 reactor.
I just think they elected a new pope.
-
This was the scene in every newsroom when the story broke
-
Well 'happy hour' (when news feeds happen) was a non starter cause all of the crews are on the road

Ok this might seam korny but the best way I think I can help is when all is settled down (next season) is to spent my tourist dollar at their resorts, fly their airlines, eat at the local eatery's, stay at their local lodges etc.
and support the japan economy
but that's my two cents

Hummm first of all LESSONS LESSONS LESSONS. I taken private lessons and it is an investment worth taking.
I cannot say for you but my personal experience is work on where you place your center of gravity. if it is leaning to the toe side (which is easy) then the board will want to tilt to that side and naturaly turn. same with the heal side. but it is unnatural for the body so it will take time to get a handle on. use your hips and lower body. for example if you want to go heal side you would want to try and show your 'Tall Timber' to the world. the board will want to turn and it will do the rest. This can be viewed in a different way so as I said at the start invest in a private lesson
