Title: Photoshop Retouching Cookbook for Digital Photographers
Subtitle: 113 Easy-to-Follow Recipes to Improve Your Photos and Create Special Effects
First Edition: August 2005

This is a problem that has a multi-stepped solution.
1. Make sure you are using an 80 wire ide cable, not the old 40 wire ones that we are used to using for CD and DVD devices. The old cables are not capable of supporting the higher speeds of today’s burners. Continue reading My new 12x DVD burner will only burn at 2x
Today when I went to use the recovery disk on my Toshiba laptop, in order to prove to Toshiba that the DVD-RW drive is bad, I received the following message (printed in ASCII art): WRONG MACHINE
If I ran the disks in Windows, I got a similar message telling me that the recovery CD Rom was not for my machine, but that it was built for a Satellite 5200 only. Interestingly enough, the machine IS a Satellite 5200. Continue reading “Wrong Machine” Error message on Toshiba Satellite
One of the questions I get a lot is “Why Linux?”
Why do I use Linux?
I can give you the standard lines… “It’s more secure than Windows”, “It’s more stable than Windows”….
While neither of these are untrue, it’s more than that. Continue reading Why Linux?
