    Virgin Media Wireless Macbook Issue

    .. Dont do windows 7 on the release candidate though, there was plenty of networking problems which came about though that, use something more "well known" to the industry like XP or Vista.

    Slow network speeds - How to find bottleneck?

    even though youve probably finished this now, try a program called Teracopy, it sped up my transfer of 36gb to about 6 minutes, from 3 hours 15 mins. The problem could also be the read speed of the DVD device. Rememeber, the files can only be written as fast as they are read :) hope this...
