PCs and Macs use different network protocols designed for the different types of computers. There are ways to get around this. You might need to install software to adapt your odd machine out. Probably making the PCs think the Mac is family.
Read up here.
Mmmm...Standards...never heard of them.
TCP/IP is available on Macs and PCs.
Basically, from what i can make out, you've got something disabling multicasting. You need to enable samba drives on your Mac for your pc to be able to access the drives. On Windows you need to share the drives and the printer and ensure that Multicasts are available to be sent.
Hamachi, is a VPN, doesn't really work if you're on a local network.
I would suggest that the problem would be Firewall related.

Windows funnily enough will use your pagefile before it fills your RAM.
That's where the speed up of
ConservativeFileSwapUsage=1
in msconfig comes from.

i wouldn't use an SSD on a machine that has a swap.
SSDs have limited writes. If you're sticking windows or linux on their, they'll rip through the writes really quickly.
with linux you can use it in "cd" mode, or whatever, which allows you to not use a swap.

i'd probably downgrade the hdd to a smaller size, and then replace it with a 7200 rpm one.

mmmm...it's getting a bit more confusing now.
I'm still waiting for the Death Star.

Handbrake is very good. Especially when using the command line version

i'm assuming you have another computer.
Download a linux Live CD. i think Ubuntu has one, as does Slax.
Boot into the CD, and then copy all your data onto another drive, or burn a DVD/CD.
Then format and reinstall Windows.

Fetch is a trial but what's good about it, is that it doesn't stop working, the only thing that changes is that after a while you have to wait a period before being able to use it. So it never stops working.

you could use Notes in Mail.app
or you could try to drag the widget onto the desktop.

That's a video showing how to do it and use it.
-
maybrick, try using Fetch.
That often works. It could be due to either the server or your connection.

Loud as a whisper
season 2 episode 5 of TNG

There's a spore version for the iphone!
-
mmm maybe.
it would be interesting to see a cylon civil war and how that would affect the way to earth.
-
or maybe.....
both the Cylons and the Humans become friends and go to live on Earth.
btw does it strike you that Earth was the "13"th colony?
-
it was strange. That in the TOS films time travel just involved going round a sun.
yet later on, it wasn't easy to do.
-
Here's a spoiler for you.
They'll get to Earth or not. It's the last series so there has to be an overall conclusion.
I personally think they'll get to earth.

Kyle XY was good, it seems to have gone downhill a bit though.

Firefox on the mac is not so good.
Use Safari. Or if you're looking for something slightly faster than Safari, try WebKit.
WebKit is a rendering engine. When you run it, it'll open Safari, but switch to the WebKit rendering engine. It's a bit faster than Safari and is updated practically nightly.

Proxy settings for Safari are located in the Networks Preference Panel
