• I'm looking for a new hobby. Ideally something that doesn't cost too much, is indoors, and requires little space. No computers allowed, too much of my time is spent at one already. Any thoughts?
• Does anyone happen to know how to fix a retractable USB cable (similar to one found on many portable USB mice)? I extended the cable all the way and now it won't retract.
• I received a 64GB solid state drive for my birthday, and I'm not sure what to do with it. Is 64GB enough to store my OS (windows 7)?

• I just finished The X-Files and now that it's over I need a new show! Doesn't matter if it's an old show on DVD or a new show on right now. Doesn't need to be sci-fi or fantasy, but it certainly can be! Thanks!
• I'll be traveling to South Africa in a couple of months and was wondering if I should buy a converter for my electronics. If I do need one, where can I buy a decent one?
• I do computer support for a local car lot. They need a database to maintain an inventory of used parts. Any ideas?
• I've been saving up for a nice tech item that I'm no longer sure I want. I've saved up $1000, and was originally going to get a Wacom Cintiq 12WX, but the reviews have been varied on it. I have no debt, and I'd rather not just invest it after I spent so much time saving for something big for myself. Any ideas?
• I'm in the process of ripping my DVD collection to M4V format. What's the best tool for automated chapter import? Also, what's the best tool for M4V metadata editing?
