I'm looking for the BIOS upgrade package for the IBM PC-340 (6560-19M or similar), that's a Pentium 100 system from back around 1996. Yeah, I know ... it's positively ancient. I used to have the software but the diskette is now corrupted and I need to change the BIOS on a BUNCH of these little...

Can't find a forum that's really smack on target for this question, so I'll ask here...if you think another forum would be appropriate, please advise which one. I have some users wanting weather monitoring software and have requested to have Weatherbug installed on their systems. Personally, I...

Does anyone know where a SIMPLE [purpleface] tutorial on .htaccess can be found? All of the tutorials I've found so far get rather deep into the mechanics of how it works but don't really give any simple examples. I don't really need to understand the nuts and bolts of how .htaccess works...I...
