I may have never seriously looked but I think the best way usually would be references by people who already know you or advertisement. David.

Yeah tab control in vb6 forced you to play with the visible property of controls (groupbox etc). The easiest way out is .Net(vb.net/c#, managed c++) ....

Looking for a reliable Home internet connection
by Kevin Ouma 27 Jul '09

27 Jul '09

Hi All I am looking for a fast Internet connection for Home use. I right now have the Safaricom USB Modem which is excellent performing even better that my office connection ( AccessKenya). It is however turining out to be expensive as I have to fork out 1000 shs to recharge every 3 or 4 days. Im considering taking the Broadband Nyumbani from Orange and wanted opinions from fellow skunkers on how its performance is and are they on Seacom yet like Safcom. Cheers Kevin

What 7k can buy you in a day

Everyone, Just thinking, I want to play a role in the internet revolution in Kenya and also make some small dime. We all most likely have blogs running on either wordpress, blogspot or self hosted. I am offering to register a domain name of your choice (.co.ke, has to be available), offer you hosting and install a blog and customize it to your looks at only Kshs. 7000. From this, 4500 will reccur yearly to take care of the domain renewal and hosting. Domain prices might go down if kenic decides to offer the fiber advantage to Kenyans. Please see my new blog at http://blog.majibu.com just as an example of what can be done. All the above is achievable within 6 hours. David. -- Got any life problems? visit www.dearkenya.com
