I finally googled wi-fi antenna booster and came up with this http://www.instructables.com/id/E8NV...I5IF/?ALLSTEPS since I already had a Belkins USB adapter, I stopped by wal-mart on the way home and bought a three dollar 8" strainer and came home and hooked it up as shown on the website...... ohmy.gif ohmy.gif ..... The Signal went from spotty at 35% signal and 2 Mbps to 55% signal and 11 mbps ....quite a diference...I rechecked several times, and the speeds were consistant....amazing

Amazon has a little publicized 30 drice guarantee on their own price. They will in that time refund the difference if the price drops.

Increase The Font Size On A Web Page (from Smart Computing)


You can increase the size of the text by opening Internet Explorer’s (IE) View menu, selecting Text Size, and choosing the most suitable size for you. Better yet, you can add a Size button to your IE toolbar so that you can resize the text on a Web page with just a couple of clicks. To add a Size button, open IE’s View menu, select Toolbars, and click Customize. When the Customize Toolbar dialog box opens, select Size from the Available Toolbar Buttons list, click the Add button, and then click Close. You should now see a Size button on your main IE toolbar. Now, whenever you open a Web page with small text, all you have to do is click the Size button and select the best text size from its drop-down menu. Although there are some Web sites designed to prevent visitors from changing the size of their fonts, this tip still works for many of them. (Keep in mind that some 'text' items are really graphics. Those cannot be resized in this manner.)
