Geeks have a Life, Too. Wednesday, November 25, 2009. Booting from a cloned VHD in Win7. This is my attempt to make a serious "how to" contribution to the Windows 7 software development community, and, hopefully, make something that I learned the hard way simpler for someone else. 160; There are a number of hidden gotchas along the way, which this post is intended to walk you through. Which empties the Recycle bin, clears your browser cache, gets rid of temporary files, etc. When you finish, lo...From t...

Geeks have a Life, Too: July 2009
http://onegeekwithalife.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Geeks have a Life, Too. Monday, July 13, 2009. This I believe, pt. 3 - Jesus Christ died and rose again. Sorry it's been so long since my part 2 post. I really meant to do these in more rapid succession. But there is one historical fact that convinces me that it is true. Virtually everyone of those original apostles died a martyr's death before the end of the first century, solely because of their proclamation of that fact. No one dies for something they know to be a lie. And if he did that, then I con...

Geeks have a Life, Too: Forex Robots: Scam or Opportunity?
http://onegeekwithalife.blogspot.com/2010/02/forex-robots-scam-or-opportunity.html
Geeks have a Life, Too. Saturday, February 20, 2010. Forex Robots: Scam or Opportunity? I have been intrigued with Forex (short for Foreign Exchange, or foreign currency trading) for sometime. I've heard many times from many different sources that a good forex trader can average one-half percent on his invested capital per day. That doesn't sound like much until you realize it works out to about 250% per year. The competition had 329 entries of robot programs developed by independent developers. Thes...

Geeks have a Life, Too. Saturday, July 17, 2010. Forex Robot World Cup - results. I started this series with the question " Forex Robots: Scam or Opportunity? 160; So, was it a scam? 160; I think that all depends on your definition of "scam". Did they deliver what they promised (or strongly implied)? No But did they take my money and run, or cheat me out of something to their gain? And this is what High-Rider was doing. It had a VERY high success rate during the competition. But here's th...Now, all o...

Geeks have a Life, Too: Best Price on Quicken
http://onegeekwithalife.blogspot.com/2010/11/best-price-on-quicken.html
Geeks have a Life, Too. Sunday, November 28, 2010. Best Price on Quicken. I use Intuit's Quicken to keep track of my finances (in fact, I haven't kept a manual check register since 1991 when I started using it! And TurboTax to do my taxes. I don't succumb to Intuit's come-on's to get me to upgrade to the latest and greates version every year, but I do upgrade every couple or 3 years or so, primarily because they have a tendency to drop support for certain features from older versions. Walking with God: ...

Geeks have a Life, Too. Saturday, February 27, 2010. Forex Robot World Cup Robots - Real World, Day 3. This series of blog posts is tracking my results actually using the winner of the Forex Robot World Cup. I'm still waiting to answer the question that I started with - Is it a scam, or is it real? I mean, as discussed in the opening post in this series, the numbers cannot possibly be anywhere close to real. And yet, if it's a scam, there's two more questions: How, and why? 160; The results they claimed...

Geeks have a Life, Too: Online businesses
http://onegeekwithalife.blogspot.com/2010/08/online-businesses.html
Geeks have a Life, Too. Monday, August 9, 2010. One thing that has drawn a lot of my interest recently is the idea of setting up some sort of online business that will generate a stream of income on auto-pilot. The reason is simple: I won't be physically able to continue working indefinitely, and I don't have enough saved in order to retire. He talks about it in this link: Multiple Profit Streams.

http://onegeekwithalife.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Geeks have a Life, Too. Saturday, August 22, 2009. Building a new computer. I'm about to start building myself a new computer. And I thought I'd document the project for myself and anyone interested. When I tell people that I'm going to build a computer, they react something along the lines of "Wow, where did you learn how to build a computer? But first, why? Especially since I have 3 computers now. The second question, then, is why am I building a new computer instead of just buying one? I'm using the ...
