I have been using XOOPS for a few years now, although not a Guru by any means, I do have a fair understanding of how things work. I am not great at PHP MYSQL or theme design lol, so what I am good at? Maintaining and configuring an XOOPS website. It's a constant learning curve for me, I try a little of everything that's involved in XOOPS. Make no mistake though, I read a lot!

There are cards in the Hardware category and the Software category,eg. most cards use the software drivers to do the work which uses the processing power of the CPU these are Software cards. Other cards (more expensive) do the hard work thats needed from the card themselves, allowing much less usage of the CPU, while doing there work.

Voice over IP (VoIP) saves me a shitload, I am not what you would call a big user of the telephone, though I do know a few people interstate that I call on a semi-regular basis often talking for an hour or more.

Just little tips for newbies like me ;o)

I recently have embraced VoIP, one thing led to another and now I have a computer firewall with traffic shaping.

I will list sites and referrals in this article, possibly multipage.

MythTV overview and general information. Links, tips, hardware etc.
