It doesn’t matter if I am working with a Network Engineer in the field, advising a ProSumer with a Homelab, or just working for some clients at their homes or companies, the fact is NOBODY checks the quality of their electricity. The truth is, before installing any type of equipment and guaranteeing any type of […]

In the Information Technology world there are some things that are extremely hard to believe…and this is how it goes when I talk about printers and tell people I rarely have any problems with them. It’s true. Out of the many I have installed and the several that I use, the only problems I have […]

In the 25+ Years I have been working in Tech, responsible for many PCs and Servers, having built hundreds and repaired thousands, I had never had a CPU die on me…even when I lived back home in the Dominican Republic where the electrical grid was unstable.

As an example, I have a 425 VA UPS for my Frontier FIOS ONT, […]

We can’t expect Windows 11 to have every single Driver for every device in the world to be included in the installation Package. We could see this in the uprising of the Mini PCs, in which I wrote articles for downloading the Drivers of the main players such as GMKtec, BOSGAME, MINISFORUM and Beelink. Recently […]

I’ve started participating more in providing free tech support online, whether it be in Forums or Reddit. Back in the early 2000s, I had started my own forum which racked up more than 4000 users worldwide.
