There are many types of computer user, but there are two key ones for this issue; the content producer and the content consumer. The producers will always need a laptop or desktop, you really can't even write blog posts properly on an iPad, never mind a smart phone. Consumers only need internet and a touchscreen. The new 'app' revolution is aimed at the consumers, and that makes perfect sense, the vast vast vast majority of people are consumers only.-Eóin (September 29, 2010, 03:46 PM)
You older people and your weird ways... I guess you have to be older than 19 to understand what is going on in this video. To me, it makes no sense...

I think lack of information/organization is a problem at most sites.Yes, I agree that this is a problem on many sites, but I was focusing on sites where Flash and/or java were a large part of the problem, and all too many high falutin' restaurant sites seem to be good examples.-Renegade (September 11, 2010, 07:57 PM)-cyberdiva (September 11, 2010, 08:50 PM)
e.g. The local Dominoes Pizza site is all Flash... And unusable. You have to enter credit card information BEFORE you can see the menu... Ahem... Idiocy piled upon idiocy.
And... to top it all off... the front page now plays a loud video right off the bat...-Renegade (September 11, 2010, 11:47 PM)
I would use portable apps more but having to constantly update them can be a real pain in the butt-techidave (September 07, 2010, 09:55 PM)
Target, I hear you. But there are dozens of lists all over the place. It's a lot of work and time to set up a USB stick. If I did it the way described above, it would all be done using freeware apps and best of all, it uses the LBC as a launcher, and not some very specific portable launcher. For example, the launcher that comes with portableapps is nowhere near as nice as LBC. I don't know, it was just an idea. I may do it just for the fun of it. Maybe I won't....haha.-superboyac (September 07, 2010, 07:12 PM)
I wonder if people here would find it useful if I made a rar or iso file that contained my entire LBC setup in one download?-superboyac (September 07, 2010, 05:49 PM)

Assuming the XP defaults of DHCP & APIPA (Automatic Private IP Addressing) both machines will self assign IP addresses in the 169.254.x.x network range when the cross-over cable is connected between them (time-outs being what they are, this tends to take a while 5-10min) This should work fine for your (quick-N-dirty) purposes.-Stoic Joker (August 16, 2010, 11:21 AM)
Hmmm... Australian politics, eh?
Entertaining, but I was really hoping for a happy ending where they all die.-Renegade (August 09, 2010, 08:31 PM)
So are you still leaning towards the Dark Side?Don't underestimate the power of the Dark Side.

Do *you* see a need for this? Can you explain what *you* would do if you could "build your own phone"? I can all but guarantee that a phone exists that does pretty much what you want.-JavaJones (August 09, 2010, 12:09 AM)
