    lens for a D40X

    I've got the D40x with a 55 - 200mm VR lens. Does the job nicely. 'They' say that you don't need to go as high zoom on a digi camera as you do a 35mm. Apparently a 200mm on a digi is as good as have a 300mm on a 35mm. No idea why or whether there is any truth in the matter. One day I'll...

    First DSLR- willing to look S/H is it worth it?

    I've got a D40x and definitely glad I made the plunge. I've been using the good old Canon 1000FN for the last 10-15 years and I would suggest going in to a shop and trying both a Canon and Nikon. A friend bought the canon, but I found it too light and preferred the Nikon. Horses for courses...

    i need some help please

    Sounds pretty simple, but it always best to revisit the basics. Have you checked its firewall (both the MS one and any add ons)? Can you ping it?

    Wireless help

    Do you use your laptop on other networks? If not you could always force the IP address yourself rather than getting the router to allocate one?? No idea on the Thursday / Friday thing, but just out of interest what happens if you change the date on your laptop so that it thinks it is Friday...

    Itunes error 4251

    Don't know what the error is, but I have downloaded from iTunes and backed up on to CD so I know it is possible (they actively recommend it incase your hard drive fails). They limit the number of times you can burn each play list though. Sorry it's no help - but at least you now know it...
