If this is how I got shaved, I wouldn’t mind having to do it daily, maybe even twice a day:
Pleasant Windows 7 Experience
Today in class my professor asked if anyone was able to access the Internet and I was on, everything working fine. He made me go onto a website and pull up a movie which he wanted to show during his lecture. I got the video alright and waited for him. When it came time, he requested my computer. I was unsure if my EEE PC would work with the classroom’s projector as I had never tried the VGA port. I also was not sure if Windows 7 would work with it.
To my great surprise, it all went flawless. As soon as I plugged in the VGA cable, my screen blinked, and a few seconds later my screen was on and the projector was projecting the image without any hesitation, dialog boxes, or other issues. It was nice to see everything simply work, without issues.
I wonder how the machine determined the correct resolution for the projector (as that has been an issue with other people’s computers). I also wonder if there are settings that can be changed so the projector is not in mirror mode.
Anyway, I thought I would share my pleasant experience with Windows 7 on my EEEPC.

Canadian iPhone on AT&T, will they know?
I know that AT&T keeps track of all the iPhone IMEIs in the US, since they are the sole carrier. So, if you buy a used iPhone, there is a 100% chance that AT&T has its IMEI and whenever it sweeps the network will see you using it and tack on the extra data charges.
My question is what happens if you buy an iPhone in Canada and unlock it and use it on AT&T? The 3G should work since both countries use the same bands, but will AT&T pick up on the fact that I am using an iPhone? Does Roger share its iPhone IMEIs with AT&T and vice-versa? Or, is it more like a credit card, where all iPhones start out with the same (or contain) the same few digits which identify them as iPhones?
Thanks, any input is appreciated. This is just a thought, my inner hacker had.
