10 Feb '10

Hi, I have some omain names to register... Is there anyone in this list that sells domain names under Sh. 1,000 ?? You must make sure that: 1. The domains are registered within minutes after I pay you (I do not want to wait for hours). 2. I will M-pesa you the money since I do not have a credit card and I am working in the bush. Thanks, Claire.

Advanced Recovery and Continuity Appliances
by Tuma Barua 10 Feb '10

10 Feb '10

Jambo! We (ICT people) are usually faced with server backup and restoration problems. I would like to share with you a "wonder drug" for disaster recovery and business continuity problems. This appliance can backup and restore an entire Windows (Server Farm), exchange mailboxes and other applications at bare-machine level. Restoration is in less than 15 minutes? Yes, including OS and the applications recovery. No need to re-install OS and re-configure it again. This solution has been and is being used across the world. Contact me directly, on email, if you need the vendor to call you and have a *live demo *before* *you can make a decision to buy. An online demo is also a possibility. Regards, T. Barua.

Hey, A friend of mine has this Samsung M8800 Pixon, a fine phone by the standards of Samsung. Anyway, trouble is that the phone is stuck on the BOOT Loader phase, displaying something like, 'DEMBL BOOT Loader for MSM6280 Downloader Ver 5.43' and it won't just start. Tried the PC Studio way and it does not work. Anyw Samsung guru ou there; and do we have Samsung gurus anyway? I need a way to recover it somehow. I know it is lame, shoulda told my friend never to go the Samsung ways, they are perilous, but here I am.
