Viewsonic newly introduced Flat screen monitor with Built-in PC

The Viewsonic VPC100 All-in-One PC is essentially a desktop pc with all of it'sessential parts - the processor, hard drive and all the usb ports designed to fit into what looks like a flatscreen pc monitor only. So, in a nutshell...pardon the punn, the entire desktop pc which used to consist of keybord, tower case, monitor and mouse, has now become the keybord, mouse and monitor. No more tower case.

Off course something like this had to happen at some point in time, with manufacturers always exploring new avenues to make their products more compact, more user friendly. Now, having said that, one would think that the manufacturers may have compromised somewhat on performance and specs to be able to fit. Surprisingly, compromise is not a word that comes to mind when hearing about the specs of this machine. While the pc may not be classifed as one of the most powerful machines on the market today, it does not really stand back when it comes to performance. I would think that for the eveyday software and applications that most of us use, this machine would be adequate.

The pc features an

18.5" Color TFT Active Matrix LCD screen
with an effective display area of 16.1" horizontal x 9.1" vertical, and 18.5" diagonally.
Resolution is 1366x768, with a contrast Ratio of 1000:1 (typ), 5ms (typ) response time
A 1.3 megapixel web cam
It also features 2x3 watt speakers.
An Intel Atom N270 CPU processor
Processing speed: 1.6GHz Single Core, FSB 533MHz, BGA.
Chipset is an Intel 945GSE + ICH7M.
1GB DDR2 SDRAM
Windows XP Home operating system and a 2.5"
160GB SATA hard drive.
4 USB 2.0 ports
2x PS/2, RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet LAN
Earphone and Microphone jacks, and 4-in-1 card reader (XD, SD, MMC, MS).

Actually, if you have ever opened up a computer towercase, you would probably have noticed something right away - a fairly large portion of unused space. I suppose we can compare it with an old 1965 model car. If you've ever checked under the hood, you would also notice the same phenomenon - a large amount of unused space inside the engine compartment. These days of course, there is hardly any space for a mouse to even move around in the engine compartments of newer model cars.

The pc is now available at selected outlets and sells for about $500, which is surpising when one considers that any new type of technology or application of that technology is usually costly - at least at first.

Change MAC address in Windows

Although MAC (Memory Address Control) addresses are meant to be permanent, it is possible to change the MAC address reported in the operating system. Changing of a MAC address is sometimes necessary for maintaining privacy when connecting toWI-Fi and for interoperability, and the act is sometimes called “spoofing”.

An Internet Service Provider or ISP generally binds the service to a particular MAC address, meaning that if a network card or a router is changed by the user, the service can no longer be accessed. However, this can be countered by changing the MAC address of the new interface being used.

In Windows, the MAC address can be changed in the property menu of the Ethernet adaptor. The exact name found on the “Advanced” tab depends on the Ethernet driver used and a user may find various names such as “Ethernet Address”, “MAC Address”, “Network Address” or “Locally Administered Address” in the tab. There is a better method than this which requires registry editing permissions. System registry keys that are under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} are to be passed over. Network interfaces can be found here and the MAC address of the adaptor is set from the contents of the “Network Address”.

The adaptor can be reset by using acommand line utility offered for free by Microsoft called Devcon. The addresses of all cards, including those that are not changed through the property menu of the adaptor can be changed with the SMAC MAC Address Changer. The new address can be checked by clicking on Run from the Start menu and entering the command module (cmd) followed by typing ‘ipconfig/all’ into the command prompt, which shows the MAC address under the physical address.

All routers do not have the facilities to change the MAC address and the mode of changing varies greatly in those that so. The “clone MAC address” feature in a router helps change the MAC address by obtaining the MAC address of one of the machines present in the network and replacing the current address of the router with the acquired one. Some routers also allow the MAC address to be changed manually.

Using a MAC address as the sole method of identification is not a very good idea seeing that MAC addresses can be altered. Another method, the IEEE 802.1x can be used instead as it is coming up as a standard authentication method for low-level devices.

Bluetooth-Open Wireless Technology

Bluetooth is an open wireless technology based on wireless-based open protocol that is used to connect Bluetooth enabled electronic devices. This allows quick and easy synchronization and data transfer.

Bluetooth offers worldwide compatibility as the Bluetooth radio chip, which is built into a small microchip, functions in a globally available frequency band. There is no cabling involved and files, photos and other information are easily exchanged between the connected electronic devices. The connected devices, which may include cellular phones, laptops, personal computers, printers, digital cameras, GPS receivers and even gaming consoles, communicate and exchange data through a secure 2.4GHz to 2.485GHz short range radio frequency bandwidth. Users can, therefore, create Personal Area Netwoks, or PANs for connecting with other Bluetooth compatible devices.

Bluetooth was designed keeping in mind the requirement to operate and allow sharing of data and information exchange in noisy environments where there may be interference from other radio frequency signals such as those from microwave ovens. The radio technology made use of is named frequency-hopping spread spectrum. This technology makes the link between the connected devices a very robust one.

Changing the IP Address

For change your IP addressjust turn off (or unplugging the power of) your Cable/DSL modem for five minutes. In many cases this will change your IP address. However, if that does not change your IP address, repeat the process for 8 hours. Hopefully this will result in an IP change.

If the above does not result in your IP address changing, please look through the below for the situation that best matches yours and attempt to change your IP address that way.

Windows - Computer connected directly to the modem

1. Get to a command prompt. (START, run, cmd).

2. Type “ipconfig /release” (without the quotes, on the command line by itself).

3. Type “ipconfig /renew” (without the quotes, on the command line by itself).

Windows (second option) - Computer connected directly to the modem

1. Get to a command prompt. (START, run, cmd).

2. Type “ipconfig /release” (without the quotes).

3. Shut down computer.

4. Turn off computer.

5. Turn off all ethernet hubs/switches.

6. Turn off cable/DSL modem.

7. Leave off overnight.

8. Turn everything back on.

Network with Router

1. Log into the router’s admin console. (Often http://192.168.1.1/)

2. Release the IP address. (Method varies by router manufacturer)

3. Turn off router, ethernet hubs/switches, and the cable/DSL modem.

4. Leave off overnight.

5. Turn everything back on.

If you are using a cable/DSL modem and a router, you may wish to connect your computer directly to the cable/DSL modem. Please note that this could significantly impact your system security. This allows your ISP’s DHCP to issue you a new (hopefully changed) IP address based of the (hardware) MAC address of your computer’s ethernet card.

If all the above has not worked to change your IP address and you have a router, check and see if there is a “Clone MAC Address” option. Using it should change your IP address; however, you’ll only be able to do it once (in most cases).

These will not work in all cases. If all else fails contact your internet service provider (ISP) and ask them if they are able to change your IP address or how long your connection needs to be off for your IP address to change.

If you trying to change your IP address because you are just trying to access web based forums you may wish to attempt to configure your internet browser to use a proxy server.
