Just applied on target computers and got interviewed...but...?

I just recently (a week ago) applied on the target computers and went through my first and second interview. It has been a week and I havent gotten a call or anything. Should I contact the store? Should I just wait, or should I go to the store and ask if my application has been processed? I'm a little new to the whole system so, I don't know how this works.



Just applied on target computers and got interviewed...but...?



My friend just had an interview at target and they offered her the job on the spot. That might just be a thing for this store though. You should ALWAYS call to follow up on an interview. I would usually only give it a few day. You should definitely call and just say: "I applied for a job and had a couple interviews, I was just wondering if the position had been filled."



P.S.



Target drug tests...you have 24 hours after hired to take it....in case you needed to know that.

Every HR manual advises to follow up on interviews. It shows genuine interest. It also helps in the event they misplaced your tel# or application.
I've done a lot of interviews where they say they'll call me in a day or two and let me know, and they'll never call back. Then, there's jobs where they interview but they don't decide to hire til 3 weeks later.

Is there a way to sync two computers so that the contents of a specific folder are identical?

I have a "Music" folder on my desktop and laptop. Sometimes I'm on the road and I borrow a CD and add it to my library. Then maybe at home I add a few CDs to my desktop library. Now I want to sync the music folders on both computers so that I have all the music on one computer. Is this possible and how?

Mark the folder as shared, right click on it and you sohuld have sharing info there. you may have to move the folder to your my documents folder. From the other computer you can go to my network and you sould be able to browse the opposite computers shared folders. This is all assuming of course that you have a network setup.

if they are both the same system, you can network them or get a cross over cable and use the network wizard. or put everything on an external drive, an any computer can get the data.

Dataviz Documents to Go Synchronization with Multiple Computers?

I'm trying to use Dataviz's Documents to Go to keep my Excel/Word/etc. files synchronized between multiple computers, but it is not working for me, so I'm wondering what I 'm doing wrong. I've looked on the web and at Dataviz's website, but can't solve it.



I set up my home computer's files to synch with my Palm Treo through Docs to Go, and it works fine. I then put Docs to Go on my laptop, and tried to sync with the Treo. It seems to sync, but when I look into it I'm having several problems:



- I have the files in subdirectories under my C:\ drive, not in the My Documents area. However, Docs to Go keeps trying to put the sync'd files back under My Documents, and doesn't update the ones under the C:\ drive



- when I make file changes, it doesn't seem to keep all the files the same (between the desktop, laptop, and Palm)



Can I use c:\ subdirectories? Can I make changes on any one of the machines and sync to all the rest? Docs to Go talks about "file translation"- what is that?



HELP



Dataviz Documents to Go Synchronization with Multiple Computers?adware remover



I would move the files into the directory Docs To Go syncs with. That should resolve your probelm. Isn't it a great program? I use it with the Palm Tungsten C and the Palm Life Drive.

How do I do a RE-INSTALLATION of my computers OPERATING SYSTEM?

I was told that I have a VIRUS and that it would be best for me to reinstall my computers OPERATING SYSTEM. But before doing so I needed to backup my files. I dont have the money to buy a Flash Drive, which is what they suggested that I buy but I DO NOT want to lose any of the info that I currently have on my computer (downloaded programs, pics, saved E-Mails, music etc.) My computer knowledge is next to nothing and I honestly have no idea where the hell to start!! Does anyone have any suggestions? Please dont be afraid to give lots of details!!



How do I do a RE-INSTALLATION of my computers OPERATING SYSTEM?adware



if u have no experience doing it you either need to get someone else to or get someone to talk u through it ...



How do I do a RE-INSTALLATION of my computers OPERATING SYSTEM?antivirus scan



Your options:



1. If you have a secondary drive (e.g. D), then you can transfer all your important data to that drive. When a computer is formatted, only the drive containing the operating system is emptied (usually C).



2. If you have a CD/DVD burner, any kind of external hard drive, you can backup your data there.



3. Use tools like Mozy.com to make backups online.



Hope that helped.
Do you have a CD/DVD burner? If so, you can back up your files that way.
If you have a CD/DVD Burner, it will help. If you have only one drive in your system, Then you need to back everything into Cd/DVDs or else, if you have secondary drives on your system, you can back it up to your other drives. For example the c: drive is the OS drive. if you have d: or e: you can backup your data to that drive alone and reinstall the OS on the C: drive alone. You need to format the c: drive and re-install the OS.
well, since you don't have much money, get a friend who has like an 80 gig ipod and put all you're info onto their ipod. Since you don't have the money for a flash drive, ask someone who may have like an external cd/dvd burner... a dvd burner would be better because it holds close to 4.7 gigs of info... only thing is since you have a windows vista, your computer should have it's own personal dvd cd burner. so get some discs and start burning everything you want saved. once you have everything saved, your computer should come with a re-installation cd for new computers only... that cd will bring your computer back to it's factory settings.. put the cd in the cd drive and restart your computer, once it restarts it'll check all the drives and it'll continue with the cd installation. Just follow the directions and make sure you do a full format instead of a quick one. Everything after that you should be able to follow directions.
its quite an easy process... but if you dont know...



install a good anti virus... scan them and remove them



and run sysytem mechanic thrice a week....



or else write your data on dvd..



dhruv
if you have a cd burner or dvd burner, try burning your data on that.



as for you emails, open up a yahoo, hotmail etc... and forward



you're e-mails to that.

Is he addicted to computers?

my brother is addicted to computers I think he plays it for at least 2-3 hours every day and stays up until 6.30 in the morning on the weekends to play it. And even when he goes on the internet he is just looking up new games for the xbox?



Is he addicted to computers?agv



Sounds like he's also addicted to X-box, make sure you try to convince him that what he's doing isn't healthy and that he should join playing on sports teams for the reason that they could take him a lot farther then playing games for the rest of his life.



Is he addicted to computers?antivirus software



its his life let him ruin it



he seems very addicted
yes he is hooked no question bout it
yep him %26 every other teenager these days it seems. Try to get him outdoors or sign him up for hockey or lacrosse or something to get him physically active
I was like that when i was akid cause i had no friends so all i did was sit at the compter for 3 or more hours and play games and chat
My brother is addicted also. The games are built that way. I don't think that is an addiction to the "computer" though. Most often it is also their socializing tool. If he plays online with other gamers you will find that that has become his social circle and in order to be with his "friends" he must be logged onto his game. How much time do you spend with your friends, on the phone and in person? Compare this to the time your brother is online with his friends. My brother doesn't have friends in our town, but he socializes with residents of Australia, Germany, Canada and many others. He has received proposals of marriage over his games. They are a very tight group and the upside is they don't meddle in your day to day affairs. "Friends with benefits" for unsociable types so to speak!!
2-3 hours is nothing at least he aint out getting in trouble!!



kids cant win these days!
oh yeah, sports teams are real helpful (sarcasm)



Maybe someday he'll be a computer game designer, or just a computer programmer. I don't think that thats a problem. It's better than spending that time watching TV.



There's nothing wrong spending time doing what you like. Addiction only happens when a habit causes problems. Is he failing school because of it?



Losing all of his money, etc?
2-3 hours is nothing, most kids are on theirs for 5 or 6.

Do kids need technology (computers) in the classroom to perform at higher levels?

Can computers make kids better students?



Do kids need technology (computers) in the classroom to perform at higher levels?anti virus protection



Yes, several classes are based off of computers, and if you don't know how to use computers, you won't be able to do homework in the library.



Do kids need technology (computers) in the classroom to perform at higher levels?antivirus



Computers used as tools or learning aids with educational programmes and revision sites such as BBC Bitesize and SAMLearning do make a difference to grades. If the child merely plays games this will have a negative effect as time otherwise spent in revision and research is wasted.
yes they can learn computer skills that might turn out as their career
Depends on the subject, of course. No computer is going to make a student run faster or sing in tune. However, when students are given the opportunity to type assignments they typically score higher. This is often due to the fact that typed work appears neater than handwritten work. Also, many students are more likely to text their friends or leave them messages on the Internet than to handwrite them a note or a letter. As a result, some kids feel more comfortable expressing themselves with a keyboard instead of a pencil. And don't forget spellcheck. It's the dictionary of the new millenium.
It really depends on what you are talking about.

I have a few computers i need to pawn, is it worth it?

They aren't bad computers at all, but I need the cash kinda fast, or "I'm a dead man". What do you guys think?



I have a few computers i need to pawn, is it worth it?anti virus scan



You know it really depends on what kind of computers you are talking about. How old are they? How much memory do they have? What kind of condition are they in? You can get from $50 to $500 for a used computer depending on these factors. I would say if you have no need for the computers and there is no confidential information on them (and they are not stolen) then go ahead and sell them, the money is worth more than the paperweight.



I have a few computers i need to pawn, is it worth it?ariel



Hang a notice in the streets.
ebay
Sell it on craigslist, people on there is always buying worthless crap. Just ask my brother.
cant hurt to call pawn shops and ask but I doubt they will give you much for them. You have to remember that you can buy a brand new PC for little more than a couple hundred dollars. At that price why buy a pawned one when you can buy a brand new one that is probably faster than the pawned one.



But like I said the best one that could answer that is the actual pawn broker. Call a couple of them in your area and see what they say.



Good Luck.
depends on how old they are, but most likely you won't get enough to make it worth it.
loan sharks?
You won't get much pawning a PC. If you buy a PC for $1500 and try to pawn it 6 months later you will probably get $300 for it then the pawn shop you sold it to will sell it for around $600.



Even if you sell the PC to someone you know or a person and not a pawn-mart you will be lucky to get any more then 300 etc the only reason the pawn-mart can perhaps get more then you if because hundreds and hundreds of people will walk past it and someone will get suckered.
go ahead pawn them

Suitable operating system for computers?

also linux.. Also search for "minicomputer os" in google and wikipedia history of computers. I can't do this for you because it is your homework.

reading the other comments that would all depend on what the use would be i am in the mind of using linux but the general person wouldnt know where to start with it so in that context i would weigh up the cost elements inculing staff traing for new OS's (ie linux) with the cost of paying Mircosoft for XP or vista that ost of these staff would have already used and have at home. thus i would go witht the Mircosoft option because of software availablity, staff ability's and cost.

What are my options for connecting two computers to one dsl line?

I have two computers, one upstairs and one downstairs, both connected to dsl. The one upstairs is connected through the dsl 2wire router and the one downstairs is connected using a wireless usb. My question is, is there another option to connecting the second computer directly. Can I just purchase another router and plug it into the phone line?



What are my options for connecting two computers to one dsl line?antispam



Another router will be a suitable resolve, as will a switch if you fancy saving yourself some money, the functionality of a router (to route IP's through the internet) is only needed once in your home so whilst it will fix your problem, theres no need to get one if a switch does the job just as well, heck, so will a hub (I'd recommend against a hub as they're a tenth of the speed of routers and switches).



What are my options for connecting two computers to one dsl line?avast



its impossible to do
You cannot have two routers on a single DSL line...It will not work....So dont waste ur money.....
Assuming you mean by 2 wire router that you only have one input and one output jack, then yes, if you buy another router with more ports you can replace the original one and directly connect both computers to that one router.

How risky is buying commercially available refurbished computers?

Considering buying a refurbished Hewlett Packard Pavilion Slimline computer. Beyond cosmetic considerations, do refurbished computers come with the same waranty as new? Do they appear to have similar lifespans? Are they a good deal or am I begging for trouble?



How risky is buying commercially available refurbished computers?antispyware



its not that risky, the warranty depends on the manufacturer



usually people return computers because of the performance, there is usually nothing wrong, and if there is, the problems fixed or it wouldn't be sold



How risky is buying commercially available refurbished computers?best antivirus software



The standard warranty is usually 90 days instead of one year. You can buy an extended warranty though. The value is generally much better than a new computer.



Life spans are difficult to compare because it depends on a lot of things. As long as the power supply is good and not damaged, the computer should function normally. A lot of refurbished computers are the ones that fell off the shelf, even though they are packed really well with Styrofoam and are inspected by a manufacturer's technician afterwards, the components can still be damaged by the shock.
Refurbished machines are decent, not a bad option for anyone on a budget or just not wishing to spend the outragious sums the "new" systems command these days. If more folks bought refurbished, new prices would go down.

Freecycle, its a community of people who give away the things they dont want for free.

Go to your local area and see who is giving them away. Lots of people give away old ones, or at least old monitors and stuff. If not you can still purchase some on that site for dirt cheap and can always hassle/bargain with people.

Now we have more choices.



Everyone opts for whatever that is suitable for the person.



Some still prefer TV, like my mommy.
nope, why would i wanna crowd me and my friends around my computer or phone to watch some football or hockey??? tv will always be relavent
TV has been irrelevant for many years now because people want instant info.
Only if there is a good hockey game on,or during sex -just kidding about the last part-honest!
when i am on computer i also watch TV
No way some of my favourite shows are still good to watch
I have my TV on at the same time.

I grew in a small town where technology is still not all 100% current. Before internet I used to meet people on the magazines鈥?posts and write letters to them all over the Country. It was nice I remember waiting for the mailman bringing me a new letter from someone that I wrote, but never met. Then we would exchange photos, post cards and even try to meet each other someday. That was a good time. Before cell phone I used to go to my friends鈥?house and surprise them with a nice and warm visiting, nowadays we just call. Kind of cold鈥?Before technology people were more connected and they new how to accommodate new visitors, nowadays everyone is afraid of everyone. No more talking, no more surprise visiting and no more patience in waiting for anything. I am very thankful to grow up in this small town which I still keep some of the tradition I miss. It would be nice if we would try at least once to really go out and talk to people, say good morning and not be afraid. However, I am 12 hours far away from my home town and the technology helps me keep in touch with the loved ones. It鈥檚 nice that actually I can talk to them, see them and listen to them. Make my life very easy. I remember last Thursday I got online with my friend and her living room was at least 10 of others friends that I have not seen for 7 years. That was the greatest moment of my life. We all cried when we saw each other, so I guess technology has its benefits and it is helpful, but sometimes that we have to realize that also there are other people around us looking for a warm and nice smile.

Fear is taking over the world at a faster rate than anything i know. the education system grades 1-12 sucks. and i can't claim to have graduated. not too long ago i had never even been on a computer and had no clue to what the internet was all about. No big deal really. Take a trip. any trip. out there, or in here. where ever you think those places are, and where they'll lead you. the big takeover is is your mind.
Kids don't usually learn cursive until the third grade...but you are right--computers rule every aspect of life.
I think they already do-now cell phones are, (everyone %26 their kids all own one!)
Computers have already taken over. When I am at work, and the computers go down, it's a bummer. We all rely on computers every day.
they did already ( i heard that we would no longer have tellers at the bank)

The easiest way could be buying one 8-port hub (Dlink or 3com) and 6Xcat-5 net cables, then you should connect all PCs to HUB and Printer to one of the computers.



Then you have to define a workgroup between all computers, you should leave the computer connected to printer on everytime you want to use it by network (from other computers)

6 computers that need to network to 1 printer. What equipment I need. Will not be accessing the internet?antivirus software



for printer sharing, u need nothing more device.



Install driver in 1 computer and make printer as shared



afterall, the printer can be accessed from any computer within network. while printing from other computers, get path from shared computer address and send print to the shared printer.
this is what you need 1 router and if the other pcs are desktops 5 wireless usb adapeter's you can run 2.50+ computers off one router

Computer Science is maths, theory and hard work. Do the work study hard and there are no problems.



USING computers, and doing low level tech support ect... can be done by training at what South Africa calls Technicons. They are like colleges which do short practical courses.



Dont kid yourself, computer science is a branch of maths and to be into computers at the level of game design requires a level of dedication few can supply.



If your willing to work its very rewarding.

Question about Dell computers (inspiron range)?

I'm looking for a dell computer to buy. I've seen online that there is the inspiron 530 and the inspiron 530s. The inspiron 530s appears to have a slimer design so its more compact. However, based on the components in the computer, it is significantly cheaper than the inspiron 530. Is there another difference i should have noted? Also, for those who own anyone of these computers, could you please give me your opinion. Thankyou



Question about Dell computers (inspiron range)?anti virus scan



I looked at the 530, but ended up buying the In spiron 1520. The specs made it look like I was getting more bang for the buck.



I had them load XP on it, not Vista.



Question about Dell computers (inspiron range)?ariel



530 weaker processor so if you are buyying the computer to game get a different one
The small form factor model 530s is designed for space saving over power.



In my opinion it may not have the room you need for adding peripherals later down the line. The video card is part of the motherboard, and it uses a proprietary power supply, as well as leaving room for half height cards only.



If you get the 530 model you have access to full height cards, a real video card and power supply, and it's a full sized box so you don't have to worry about heating issues.
Yes, if it has a Celeron processor, pass on it, you want a duel core
Hay. Well the first thing that comes to my mind aside from cpu is how long does the two different computers last on batteries. there can be a huge difference here. from one hour to 4-5hours which is alot.



have fun!

Why does my computer download music files as .mpeg files even though other computers dl them as mp3&

I've been trying to download mp3 files (legally) from different sites, and I can't get them to download as mp3 files...my computer downloads them as .mpeg files, which I know are movie files. Why is it doing this and how can I make it stop doing this? Other computers will download from the same sites as mp3's, like they're supposed to do.

2 Ipods, 2 computers, can we use one Itunes account?

I have had my Ipod since last year. I am buying my husband an Ipod for Christmas this year. He is stationed up in Alaska until May so he will load Ipod/Itunes onto his laptop computer.



However I already have an account with Itunes to download my music with my credit card. Can he use the same Itunes account to download music to his computer up there? Basically 2 ipods, 2 computers, can we use 1 itunes account?



2 Ipods, 2 computers, can we use one Itunes account?anti virus



I have multiple computers with itunes on them, and I use the same account (ie. same credit card) to download things, but as said before, you have to find some other way to transfer files from one computer to another. Your downloads do not go to every computer that uses that itunes account.



2 Ipods, 2 computers, can we use one Itunes account?auto protect



You can use one account, but if you download something, you would have to e-mail it to him, as he won't be able to download it from Itunes without paying for it a second time.
yeah.when you sign into itunes its liek your e-mai.you just need the password and you can log in from any computer with internet.



good luck
nope...you have to set up individual accounts...I tried this...we have 3 computers and a lap top in our home.... We use itunes for one computer and musicmatch....they allow up to five computers to use their program...good luck

Why Can iMac Computers Run Windows But Other Computers Can't Run Mac OSX?

Why can't computers other than iMacs, or MacBooks run the Mac OSX? I am at a school store typing on a Mac right now that is running the Windows XP OS. But there are other computers here that don't run the Mac OS. Why is that?



Why Can iMac Computers Run Windows But Other Computers Can't Run Mac OSX?antivirus programs



Because Apple writes the software for Mac OS and designs the hardware. They write the software so that it will only run on their hardware (Macs don't have a BIOS, for example, among other differences between them and non-Apple hardware). They also haven't licensed their software to run on other hardware, so running it on something else is illegal. Microsoft, on the other hand, is a software company. They don't make hardware, so Windows is pretty hardware independent.



Consider how much piracy there is, I can't blame Apple for trying to keep their software tied to their hardware. If they licensed the software for use on other hardware, the pirates would probably drive them out of business in a few years.

Locking Computers....?

I went to an interview today for an office position. I know quite a bit about computers. So, I thought. I was asked " If someone comes in the room and you don't want them to see what is on your screen, How do you lock your computer? She DID NOT mean password protection.....she meant a super quick way. Anyone know a quick way to lock and unlock your pc? By a keyboard function maybe???



Thanks



Locking Computers....?antivirus software



Ctrl+alt+del. Lock computer.



Quick key shortcut is windows button+L



Locking Computers....?computer virus



In Windows 2000 and Windows XP configured in a domain setting you can hit Ctrl-Alt-Del and then the space bar "Lock Workstation". With Xp in a home setting with the goofy blue login menu, you can hit the Window's Key-L to lock the screen. If you want to ensure that there's a password when using Win-L, make sure a password is set for your profile under Control Panel -%26gt; User Accounts -%26gt; Your Account -%26gt; Change My Password
Option 1



Put it in stand by mode



Option 2



CTRL-DEL-DEL



Then Press K



Option 3



Shut down your monitor.
Press the windows logo key and L and that instantly locks your computer, you must know the password though. For computers without a password all you do is click OK
Um..depeneds what system it is

How do i manually network 2 wired computers and 2 wireless computers?

i need to manually network 2 wired computers and 2 wireless computers. when i run the network setup wizard i get an error that says to do it manually. Can someone give me the step by step to do this? starting with the first computer and so on. Thanks!By the way i have already confirmed the workgroup is the same on all computers.



How do i manually network 2 wired computers and 2 wireless computers?antivirus



you have a total of four computers, which you want to connect so each one can "talk" to each other?



you need a wireless switch; you plug in the two networked ones to the switch, the others will connect wireless to the switch.



usually, the switch would support "DHCP" (kind of plug%26play) - simply set the network settings to something like "attain automagically". If the switch doesn't support DHCP, you will have to set the IP addresses manually. Each computer requires a unique IP address formed like: 192.168.100.x and a subnet mask like 255.255.255.0.



The subnet mask will be the same on all four computers, the ip address will change in the last digit, like 192.168.100.1, 192.168.100.2, 192.168.100.3 and 192.168.100.4 (again, the subnet mask remains the same).



Try this out with the wired computers, and see, if they can "see" each other. (select start, run, type in cmd, a black command line window opens, then enter "ping 192.168.100.1" (or .2 or .3 or .4) and see what happens. If the answer is something like "timed out" you have a problem, if the answer is number you are set :))

How do i fix ip address conflict so my two computers can use the same dsl connection?

I just hooked up two computers to my DSL modem via a network router. I then set up the home network in Win XP on both computers and restarted both. Both computers are giving me a Windows system error "There is an IP address conflict with another system on the network." I then tried repairing the local connection on each computer - trying to get a new IP address for both computers. That didn't work. The only way i can get on the internet is if I unplug one computer from the network router - no IP conflict that way and the internet works fine with just the one computer. So how do I get both computers on the internet?



How do i fix ip address conflict so my two computers can use the same dsl connection?ariel



Well I hate to say this but YOU NEED A ROUTER, the SD205 is just a five port switch and has no routing ability so it will not work to do what you need.



A router will supply seperate IP addresses for all computers on the inside system and will connect them to the Internet using the ONE IP that you have.



A switch will just connect all computers together and attempt to get an IP from your ISP -- which just supplies ONE IP thus all the conflict problems.

In computers what is the difference between MB and GB and what are they used for.?

why do computers show MB and GB when you purchase them and what should you look for when buying a computer.



In computers what is the difference between MB and GB and what are they used for.?aurora



Megabytes means a million bytes (its not exactly that, but thats how we read it). and a Gigabytes is really a Billion Bytes or 100 Megabytes.



Back in the day most computers only had 8 or so megabytes. But now everything is in Gigabytes. The more GB you get the better of you are.



In computers what is the difference between MB and GB and what are they used for.?download



Mb and GB is an amount of space in something. A gb(gigabyte) is bigger then a mb(megabyte) so if you have gb its better. there is 1000 mb in a gb
Those suggest how much space you got. but in RAM, The higher it is the faster a computer is, ex its normally 512mb, but it goes higher than 2GB which is veryy fast! In a hard disk, it suggest how much space you can save in it, normally is about 100 GB or more. Right click on a file andpress properties to see its capacity.



To be exact:



- One kilobyte, kB, of storage is 1024 bytes (not 1000).



- One megabyte, MB, is 1024^2 or 1,048,576 bytes.



- One gigabyte, GB, is 1024^3 or 1,073,741,824 bytes.



- One terabyte, TB, is 1024^4 or 1,099,511,627,776 bytes.
1000 B = 1 KB



1000 KB = 1 MB



1000 MB = 1 GB



1000 GB = 1 TB



and so on.



MB or GB are used for measuring the storage space of a hard drive (for programs and files) and the "temporary" space of memory (current work space). Basically the larger the better. But don't be fooled, 512MB is half as much as 1GB.



Think of it like ounces and pounds, feet and inches.

300 computers with half on Windows 98 and the rest on 2000. Would be be cheaper to buy new computers

That will have the new software we require (Outlook, Office, Project) with XP already with the correct licensing to use on multiple computers.



Or would it be cheaper (or take less time) to install a new OS, take the time to install all the software we need, upgrade the hardware for network capabilites, etc?



300 computers with half on Windows 98 and the rest on 2000. Would be be cheaper to buy new computers...?auto protect



It would be cheaper to buy as a tender/bulk contract from local computer supplier with perinstalled everything for you.



With 300 computers, you should be getting a big discount. Just make sure you specify your requirements clearly to your suppliers.



If half of your computers are on win98, I suppose your computers should be retiring soon and are quite out-dated in terms of speed, memory, harddisk and sorry, should be everything.



300 computers with half on Windows 98 and the rest on 2000. Would be be cheaper to buy new computers...?downloads



with 300 comps you'd be better off with a central server so that all 300 computers can access the programs you want on that server ... you only have to do 1 install and purchase the required licenses for as many users as you'll have at one time

How long until Computers and Robots take over ALL Human Jobs?

its going to happen right? If you look for instance at service and transport industries, factory workers can be replaced by robots like we've already seen in the auto industry; taxi, bus, and limo drivers can be phased out when the self driving cars are put into service, or subways, that can and some are run by computers already, it would keep union workers from striking and crippling a cities public transportation, the only problem is laying off that many people, how can this transition be made?



The only option I see is to have a giant monopoly like the government be responsible for all the robotics and computers that will replace human labor and we can all live labor free lives without currency, relying upon computers to do our bidding until they gain self-awareness and all that good stuff. My question is, on a scale of 1-10 how possible is this? (10 being inevitable, 1 being not at all) if it is then approximately how long until this occurs?



How long until Computers and Robots take over ALL Human Jobs?avast



I fixed industrial electronics and robotics for a living. Believe it, our robotic technology is so high-maintenance, there is no fear of humans running out of work.



It takes humans to maintain and repair the technology.



How long until Computers and Robots take over ALL Human Jobs?ducati



Thus far, computers and robots have resulted in a net INCREASE in the number of jobs in the world (look it up), not a decrease.
Most computers are the only reason



the idiot electric power and auto industries still exist.



So it will be a long, long, time before



they replace any workers.
Never computers may seem smart but they arent at all its the programmers behind the jobs robots may be taking all of the laborous and difficult jobs but the robots will still need programmers debuggers and repair men.
Don't hold your breathe. Economics rules our lives. If it doesn't pay it doesn't play.

Do you think computers are taking over the world?

Computers can pretty much do anything these days. They even have computers MAKING computers. So do you think they're capable of someday overpowering us? We basically rely on them to live. We program them to do things we can't. I'm not saying it will be tomorrow, or even 10 years, but do you think it could happen?

It has already happened. You just don't know it yet. Try going for a week without computers. You can't drive they are in your car. You can't shop at the store, they are in the cash register. Basically everything you use requires computers at some step.



Do you think computers are taking over the world?firewall



You have watched "I, robot" too many times :-)



Computer won't take us over.
I think that computers are necessary tools and very much present in our society. Use it constantly from the minute we wake up to the time we sleep. I don't think computers are taking over the world but we are rather appealed by them. Believe it or not some people still hate new technology but our present society makes full use of it.
i bet thats whats happening and that is how the world will end
Oh please you have to stop seeing so many idiot movies.
I asked my computer if I could answer this question and it told me no.
I don't know aboiut the world but it has pretty much taken up my life
yes, computers are evil and they plotting their plan right now
Yes, it's possible . We can fall in our traps and create a monster, a big uncontrollable SYSTEM which could complicate our life instead to help us.
Hell no I can,t even get mine to mow the grass or take out the garbage.
No they have only opened up opportunties to us that didn't exist before but that doesn't make them indespensbile. We would just have to reevaluate how to do things again without them.
We have the power of free-will and no computer can duplicate that.

You can speak about online gambling addictions, addiction to porn, internet addiction, social withdraw (associating online rather than going out into the real world). You could talk about the damage caused to your eyes, also tunnel vision, bad posture, carpal tunnel syndrome, all of which will lead to unhappy health outcomes. Also online predators, how the internet allows for anonymous stalking and harassment of others.



Debate: computers bring more unhappiness?free spyware remobal



I`m not sure I agree with the statement.



But, some arguements could be:



People get more isolated, loose contact with real life people.



Most people need this contact to live.



People sitting behind the computer too long deprive friends and family of their presence, and therefore cause unhappiness with them.



General communication skills deteriorate (just see some of the spelling on the Internet to know i`m right) and can therefore lead to more misunderstandings, arguements and thus unhappiness.



Mind you, these are my personal thoughts, and have not been scientifically proven. (except the spelling, but anyone can do that)

Why not just pull the bad power supply out of the new computer and put the power supply from the old computer in place of it?



If the old p.s. is less than 350 watts, I would just buy a new power supply and put it in the computer.



Before you pull out the bad p.s., note where all the wires from it connect to the motherboard and components, then simply hook up the good power supply in the same manner. Most of the connectors are keyed. The only tricky one is the connection to the floppy drive [if you have one], be very careful to note how it is connected. If you reverse the connection [which is possible] you can ruin either the floppy drive or the mobo connector.



I have 2 computers that i am trying to combine but i need help (look for better details)?free spyware remover



I would not do this. I would buy a new power supply for your new computer. You can get a new power supply at www.newegg.com. If you are unsure of how to change a power supply, you should take your new power supply and your new computer to a computer place that will change it for you. Don't spend more than 100 bucks on a power supply. I would suggest the 25-50 dollar category available at the link below.

I find it rather STRANGE that Romney became a full fledged pro-lifer just a few months ago....and Giuliani is just crazy and he has no common sense, only the heart to fight terrorists....nothing else other than 9/11 which I don't see a connection between Iraq and 9/11! I personally feel there are more terrorists in other countries such as Iran and Pakistan! Hell we don't even have an identified enemy nor an exit strategy and we are nation building. Bush promised us that he wouldn't do these things and then he goes and does them to one of the least non-terrorist countries!!!! I am tired of the republican party, which use to stand on a libertarian platform, continue to do just the opposite! Many republicans to me are just as bad as the democrats!
