How I can change the cable television cables back to the satellite cable?

The house I am in the cable was for the cable and then use the cables to connect via satellite, but now I want to change the wiring around again for cable.

Both Saturday and cable uses a standard CAT5 cable either from the satellite dish or cable type that hooks. Just use the same RF connector to your cable box and make sure that the cable guy hooked back up for the service and it will be good to go. BTW why go back to cable. Sat, usually, much better image quality and much More HD channels and cheaper than cable.

What do I do with old cable/satellite boxes?

I recently switched satellite providers, and I now have 4 receiver boxes (and remotes) left over from my previous provider. The new installer told me I could keep them in case I ever wanted to switch back to the original provider … but if I did, wouldn’t they just give me new receivers for free anyway?

Anything else I should do with them … maybe donate? Seems a waste to just toss them, but that might be the only option!

There IS a MARKET for such things on ebay, or craigslist (local listings) or, if you don’t want to mess around, you can list them under FREE, on CRAIGSLIST.ORG, and I’ll bet some GRATEFUL person will come over PROMPTLY and pick them up.

I also, hate to see things go to waste, and it is FAR BETTER to have someone get some use out of them, and it might just make their day !

And, what a thoughtful thing to do.

Color LCD 3G iPod?

I have an old 3G iPod that still works fine, but I wanted to know if I could replace the B / W LCD with a color LCD. Will it work? If so screen is still black and white anyway? Any other cool mods for the 3G iPod?

I will not color display by the firmware and the screen.

How do I match color that I see on-screen and color of printed output? I have LCD monitor & HP 1000 inkjet.?

My monitor is Viewsonic 19″ LCD and printer is HP Business Inkjet 1000. Each time that I print color graphics, the colors in the printed output look different from those that are shown on the screen

Without buying a different printer, it’s all related to ICC color profiling. Every printer will have a color profile that translates what’s being displayed on the screen to the colors that printer needs to output. The software that came with the printer should have the color profile on it.

In display properties, click the settings tab, then advanced near the bottom. When the new window opens, there will be a color management tab. That will allow you to add color profiles. Now that you know where that is, contact HP to find out where the color profile is on their provided software, then browse for it using the instructions above. They might even walk you through it.

How much do you think this bike worth?


Recently my friend has rebuild a totally new 2008 Scott s60 flat bar road bike into following specification. It has become a drop bar road bike and he is selling it for $1200, do you guys think it worth the price?Is this spec looks good?

frame 7005 Aluminium(original s60 frame)
fork Super Muscle Full Carbon
rear derailleur Shimano Tiagra 9speed
front derailleur Shimano Tiagra 9speed
shifters Shimano Tiagra 9speed
crankset Truvativ Rouleur Full Carbon (second hand)
bottom bracket Truvativ Rouleur Full Carbon (second hand)
chain Shimano Tiagra 9speed
cassette Shimano Tiagra 9speed
brakes Shimano Sora Dual Pivet
hubs Shimano Tiagra
rims Alex DA22 32hole
tyres Maxxis Refuse
h.bar 6061 Aluminium Ergo
stem Easton EA50
seat post 6061 BBB black aluminium
saddle Selle San Marco ponza

It’s not badly priced, but I reckon you could get a similar spec to that for the same money for a new bike.
The most important thing is the fit though as even if you buy a $10000 bike it’s no good to you if it’s the wrong size.
