Wendy works at home. Wendy owns a successful home business, has 3 lovely children, and misses the outside world. Why? Wendy wakes up, heads to her home office, and is all put wired to her desk all day. She used to try to head out for breakfast to a nearby coffee shop with Wi-Fi wireless internet access, but the connection was never very stable. And now, as the coffee shop becomes more and more popular she’s never sure if she’s going to get a space, or an outlet, and really can’t afford to be losing all that time in which she could be working. There was a time when Wendy was there for every one of her kids’ soccer practices, but now she only makes it to weekend games because she needs the time to keep working. For a while she tried printing out reports so she could be at soccer practice and keep on working, but was losing time and money on all the printing supplies. Wendy’s not a bad mom, her priorities are in the right place, but Wendy also understands that after putting all her assets into her start-up company she can’t afford to fail. In a world where it can be hard supporting children even with two full time incomes, Wendy’s options are limited. Let’s put it this way, if Wendy had a dollar for every time she’s wished that she could take her office with her wherever she goes, she’s be able to retire. As very busy people do, Wendy thinks of all downtime as an opportunity to get ahead in her work.
Now let’s look at John who also works at home. Well, used to work at home. Now, John works some days in the public library, but only when it’s rainy. On sunny days he works right by the river in a shady spot with picnic tables and benches. Every now and again he heads up to the terrace on his building’s rooftop to get some extra sun, and very often gets his daily tasks completed while taking the train or bus out running errands. During the week John works in a small café right outside his son’s school where he can easily see his son crossing the street and the two walk home together. John always has a power outlet in the café, and it’s peaceful and quiet enough to get some work done. It’s not because the coffee is bad either, it’s because John is not relying on a traditional Wi-Fi wireless internet connection. John has a mobile air card, which allows him to have mobile broadband internet in his laptop just about anywhere he goes. Because of the quality of his broadband connection he can send and receive large files from anywhere, and has a constant signal when he’s on the move.
How can the stories of our home-working heroes be so different? John is taking advantage of the latest in 4G technology with a WiMax internet connection. It works just like a cell phone in that his internet provider is constantly broadcasting a signal, and his computer can access that signal from anywhere within range. Of course John has to do some work from his home still, he can’t always transport books or paper files with him, but since his company went digital John basically just needs an internet connection to get the job done. He is like many self-employed and telecommuting employees that in the world of today are skipping the office, and working on their own. Now, these lucky people are even luckier in that their world is no longer confined to the four walls of their apartments or houses.

If you have used Windows Vista on top of current Windows XP to make the computer a dual-boot system, but now determined to dump or ditch the Windows Vista separation to relapse to the classic Windows XP go after the instruction below to remove and uninstall Windows Vista to maintain only Windows XP w/out having to install back the Operating System, and w/out affecting saved data and files.
Important: Don’t use this guide if your dual-boot system is Windows Vista.
1. Boot your PC and go to Windows desktop.
2. Put the Windows Vista DVD installation disc to DVD-ROM or CD-ROM optical drive.
Otherwise, mount the image of Windows Vista DVD ISO on any virtual drive.
3. Open Command Prompt, or click Start menu to go to Run command.
4. In the Run text box or the command prompt, issue the subsequent command and press Enter:
[DVD Drive Letter]:bootbootsect.exe /nt52 ALL /force
For instance,
If the DVD path is D:, then key in the following:
D:bootbootsect.exe /nt52 ALL /force
The step will eliminate the boot menu to choose OS to begin.
5. Eject the DVD disc and restart the PC.

8. On the root folder of Windows XP, erase BootSect.BAK and Boot.BAK. The 2 files are scrap backup files of previously placed Windows Vista boot-loader, but no longer helpful for Windows XP system.
Tip: NT52 is the Master Boot Record or MBR used by Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP, while Windows Vista utilizes NT6. So if you are going to uninstall Windows 7 in Vista/7 dual-boot system, alter the NT52 in the prompt to NT60.
Fast Shortcut: It is possible to arrange the Windows Vista partition immediately as well, and then begin the computer with Windows XP installation CD to fix the partition, or open the “bootsect /nt52 c:” command from the boot folder of Operating System immediately to fix the boot partition.

What is NAS
NAS stands for Network-attached storage. This is the name given to contributed data storage technology which could be connected directly to a PC network and offer centralized data storage and access to varied network clients.
NAS is a hard drive storage system - including configuration of RAID, with its LAN IP address than being connected to the computer department that is giving applications to workstation of network users. It has its own program for mapping and configuring file locations to network attached equipments. A Network-attached storage could be included as part of a more complete solution similar to SAN.
Description
NAS varies from traditional file serving and DAS or Direct Attached Storage in that the OS and other program on the NAS offer only the storage data’s functionality, data access and the supervision of these functionalities. Moreover, the NAS unit doesn’t limit clients to just one FTP. NAS systems typically contain 1 or more hard drives, often set into logical, superfluous of redundant arrays of independant disks (RAIDs) or storage containers, as traditional file servers do. NAS eradicates the responsibility of serving file from other servers on other network and could be deployed by way of commercial embedded units or through computers running NAS program.
NAS utilizes file-based protocols like NFS or Server Message Block (SMB). Contrast NAS's file based method and use of well understood protocols that has SAN (storage area network) that utilizes a block based approach and runs over SCSI over iSCSI or Fiber Channel.
Minimal functionality or stripped down OS are utilized on NAS PCs or devices that run protocols or file applications which offer the NAS functionality. A "leaned out" Free BSD is utilized in Free NAS, for instance, which is open-source NAS software intended to be organized on computer hardware. Commercial embedded equipments and consumer network appliances can utilize closed source OS and protocol implementations.
As these tools have IP addresses, they could be accessed directly.
In a Network-attached storage, since the storage are separately located to the server, program files are served more rapidly as they are not competing for no different resources.
Another benefit of Network Attached Storage is that, you can have different servers with dissimilar OS storage, management and backup of the data can be centralized even when you’re in the environment
Some of the great advantages of this storage device include its expandability. It is so easy to add more storage. This as well brings an extra fault tolerance level to the network because you could include mirror RAID features.
