Yeah, I was there. Looks like it might be a good start, but it probably will be a long time until fiber-to-the-home is available for most of Santa Fe. What else is new. But the mayor did say that he is going to ask the city council to open up 8,000 sf of space in the 500 Market St. (above REI)

Thanks, Tom, for this report. So how does this work from here? Could I start a company called Egg-Head Services (my logo would by Humpty-Dumpty sitting on a wall) and start connecting people to the hub? Would I need my own wire? Or could I commandeer wires already there? As for th

Nick-- I don't think there are answers to your space question yet. First, the City Council has to get on board. As to access, call Cybermesa. It has some contract related to laying the lines. But there seem to be wifi-to-house alternatives, but I don't know the details. T On Dec 14, 2015 12:57

I don’t know if the Qwest lawsuit over the Communications Franchise Ordinance was ever settled. I would think that unless the ordinance was fixed, it will be hard for companies to provide services via this new link. Ed ___ Ed Angel Founding Director, Art, Research, Technolo

Re: [FRIAM] ADVISORY: City Will "Flip the Switch" on Gigabit Internet Speeds at 12/14 Special Event

FYI, I called the contact number on the Santa Fe fiber website, which indeed was cybermesa. The person I spoke with was not very informative about any timescale for rollout other than stating that service would begin with businesses in the railyard area then the Capitol. He mentioned that mor

[FRIAM] My Del seems kuput

Greetings all! It seems like the power system for my DEL is kerput. Anyone have opinions on where to find a fun to use budget sensetive computer wich can easly handle games yet then fun to learn JavaScript and Python on. I don't know if it makes much difference my DEL monitor looks like it can

Re: [FRIAM] My Del seems kuput

I just recently bought an Intel NUC. Very compact (about the size of a thick paperback), but a powerful desktop machine as well (powerful enough for my C++ development needs when on the road). Entry level NUC may suit your budget... Cheers On Mon, Dec 14, 2015 at 04:17:42PM -0700, Gillian Densmo

Re: [FRIAM] The DEL hilarity continues

Gill, I have had good luck with my HP “Elitebook” which I got through my University. My warrantee service was through folks down in Rio Rancho, which was really good because they actually spoke English AND I Knew Where To Find Them, and they knew it. I am not sure how you have to buy it

Re: [FRIAM] My Del seems kuput

Good direction, I think. I did a similar thing for several years: I got a Mac Mini and used it for a desktop. The NUC is sorta a Windows/Linux version? -- Owen On Mon, Dec 14, 2015 at 5:33 PM, Russell Standish wrote: > I just recently bought an Intel NUC. Very compact (about the size of a >

G -- Last week I bought one of these on a special for $95 including shipping. The price is up a bit now, but so far I'm impressed as a road laptop. http://www.ebay.com/itm/381469601556 Tom Sent with MailTrack
