    This may sound a silly question


    Guys

    When watching interviewers on tv, even in a film, I see people just open their laptop on a train, a beach, in fact anywhere outside, and they connect to the internet, HOW ???

    I know that they can connect using cafe wi-fi, and I believe, outside a house/building if security is not good, but in open spaces ?

    Could it possible by using a dongle, which I did years ago, but had to pay 2 for 24 hours.

    :)

    Silly Question

    Hi Sturner33333,

    no such thing as a silly question, only silly answers.

    click on the pen icon again to turn it off then you can drag the map.

    please let me know if that is not what you were looking for.

    Sound Quality

    One thing that sticks out from looking at your "My Computer" specs. You list "ONBOARD 6 CHANNEL (5.1) HIGH DEF AUDIO (AS STANDARD)" which suggests you do not have the correct sound hardware driver. Your motherboard has Realtek sound and the first step is to install the Realtek sound drivers. My ASUS also came with Sonic Studio 2 which is a sound enhancement package. Check the ASUS install disc to see if you have something similar.

    May not be a speaker problem.

    Good surround sound headset

    I know you say you're not that guy, but stepping into the $250+ range really brings a change in build quality that might have you never having to buy another set. Otherwise, getting 6 speakers with decent sound in a headset is hard, and that's what you are asking for, and I have no suggestions, but just a bump up the list. *Stick Out Tongue This may sound a silly question :p
