    My Laptop Hurts My Lap - Solutions & Advice

    I just purchased my first laptop computer about a month ago, and I am noticing some discomfort in my (male) lap. At first I thought perhaps it was due to the heat. But after moving it out of my lap to say a desk, I still noticed discomfort. I am thinking *maybe* it is related to the wireless...

    How to Use the Sudoku Module in Ruby to Solve Puzzles?

    Monitor Color Problem - Desktop Troubleshooting

    It appears my desktop monitor is not displaying red. Incidentally I just purchased a laptop and was running it in front of the desktop monitor. I don't believe the problem is related to any manual change of setting, as I have not adjusted anything.
