One of my Sony 21″ Multi scan GDM520PS failed today, so I’m on a backup 19″ Sony Multi scan GDM420GS, so I’m down to my last faithful Sony 21″ CRT, I always sworn, that the cost of these monitors in 1999, I would use them to end of days….I purchased six for office, use, and now only one is left! All of them have lasted beyond their 10 year lifetime, and they have been used approx 18 hours a day, for the last 10 years!
Maybe time to start reasearching this new TFT LCD technology!
it’s a little technical this blog, unless you understand how computers comminicate via the Internet and Local Area Networks via TCP/IP.
currently it’s likely your current computers or mobile device is configured for IPv4 , you may have heard the expression IP Address, which is like a computers telephone number, which is unique, across the world, otherwise computers/mobile devices would not be able to commincate with each other. You current IP Address is probably an IPv4 IP Address, and the issue with IPv4 IP Addresses, is we are running out, or have ran out!
So a “new” IP Addressing scheme called IPv6 was created, the difference, IPv4 is a 32 bit address, IPv6 uses a 128-bit address, IPv6 is not new, and it’s been around for approximately 10 years, and may one day replace IPv4. At present only 1% of Internet traffic is IPv6. It’s not compatible with IPv4, so you maybe required to change your router of computer operating system. (in the future, if it ever takes off!)
so with a little additional configuration….PCs, networking, and router….later that day..
NO IPv6 Configured, IPv4 ONLY
IPv6 Partially Configured
IPv6 CONFIGURED AND READY
Need to get back to writing articles and blogging, a little bit behind with the photographs…
When I first started answering VMware/Virtualisation Questions at Experts Exchange, approximately 2 years ago, I was a ranked outsider, this weekend, I’m now in the Top 25 Overall Experts, some of these experts are not very active at EE, so watch this space, hopefully within the Top 10, by the end of 2013!
