    Level 1 Cert Rocket Choices

    I used a MadCow Patriot. I'll do my L2 with the same rocket using a Jolly Logic altimeter just to keep it simple.

    Lenovo installs adware on customer laptops

    Yeah, now that IBM has offloaded their entire x86 server market to Lenovo, us folks in the enterprise IT market are less than confident that there will be no shenanigans; much to the dismay of the parade of ex IBM, now Lenovo sales engineers visiting and insisting that "there is nothing to see...

    Any Linux users in the house?

    Back before Garmin revolutionized the "Glass Panel", I had a fellow aviator who had a small development company. He designed and marketed solid state instruments to retrofit & replace the traditional vacuum and gyro operated ones (turn & bank, etc) in military aircraft (he had a research...

    Any Linux users in the house?

    I don't hate it, I work with it everyday in a heterogeneous environment. It's Microsoft's marketing and licensing that I hate. I'd expect something that is so damn pricey to work a whole lot better than it does. And the Malinda Gates thing was a joke, I'm sure she won't loose any sleep over it.

    Any Linux users in the house?

    I personally use Mac's with VMware Fusion on them to host a W7 Machines for the tasks a I HAVE to. Unfortunately there is no way around the choke hold that Monkeysoft has on corporate America and there insistance to accept such sloppy coding that it will only run on Windows. What is very...

    Any Linux users in the house?

    For end users looking for then easiest "point and click" coloring book experience, yeah...that's the ticket. Although the regularity of "critical" patches is scary in itself. If your wife's car manufacturer recommended that you had to bring it back in every 4 weeks for the last 5 years to insure...

    Porting Eggfinder data

    Yeah, I just powered one up and checked. The options are "Garmin" and NMEA with the baud rate forced to 4800. Bummer.

    Porting Eggfinder data

    I found some hoopa-joopa on Google where it was claimed that you could read data in…like I said…I'm a n00b…and just asking. I'm good with manually entering the coordinates….thats what I figured would be the easiest thing to do.

    Porting Eggfinder data

    Question for you guys…I'm new at this so go easy on me; I've searched for it and found some roundabout answers so I think it's been done…I just ordered an EggFinder starter kit. I have a couple Garmin 60CsX's that I use for dirt bikes….anybody had any success interfacing it directly to port the...
