You've got a shadow: NTI backup software
 You know, I lost my PC last year, and I couldn't get any of the data off because the RAID controller went down with the ship.... well, if I had just backed up to something as easy as an external firewire drive, I probably wouldn't have spent an additional $750 just to recover those files. ---------------------------- NTI Shadow puts an end to losing valuable data, photo, video, and music files that have been modified in between scheduled backups. It maintains real-time, continuous backup of all changed files without burning up valuable system resources. By adding new technology we've expanded your options to include backup to any optical media...including Blu-ray. Now Shadow will back up to virtually any system-attached drive including USB flash, mobile storage devices (micro drives), internal and external hard drives, NAS devices, and more. You can schedule multiple and concurrent backup jobs in their native file format, which means no additional proprietary software is required to restore files. Restoring is literally as easy as drag and drop. With Shadow and external storage of your choice folks simply won't lose a photo, a file, a video, a song again. You can download a free demo version of the software - - to make sure that it's backing up, even when you're not. The demo is FREE, the software is less than $30/US

 Professional chefs have relied on this technology to accurate detect the surface temperature of a pan. The key to consistent results is a consistent technique. Generally, this is almost impossible for most people at home. Ovens vary, cookware varies, etc... This is why Thomas Keller's French Laundry restaurant (top in U.S.) uses a laser thermometer. If a pan needs to be 325F, it can be. The culinary laser themometer uses infrared technology to easily and quickly measure surface temperature without touching the surface. The laser is merely a pointer to assist with aiming. Just aim, pull the trigger and the temperature will be instantly displayed on the LED display. Great for pan temperature, BBQ, checking the performance of your oven or refrigerator, and much more. Plus, there's a cooking temperature reference guide on the side of the thermometer, insuring perfect results every time. As an extra bonus, this version of the Bonjour laser thermometer also has a probe thermometer for measuring internal food temperature. Measures from 0F to 932F. Batteries included. It's about $80 US. Find a lower shipped price? They'll beat it. http://www.chefsresource.com/bonjour-laser-thermometer.html Posted at 09:00AM May 27, 2008 by ko maruyama in Prestige | Comments[0] Samsung develops 256GB solid state drive
