OpenDNS goes Deluxe!
Early last year I wrote about one of the easiest ways to provide internet filtering for your home network. Read: http://cibertek.net/blog/2009/02/22/keep-your-family-safe-with-opendns/.

Cisco – Linksys launches new home wireless routers

Backing up your data – Part 1: Local or Online backups?
Most of the questions I get about PC “backups” seem to be more about the “How” and not so much the “Why”.
