Kwasaki, I have around P/Lock, there are a number of photocopy shops near the university, none have industrial color printers.

Hello

I have to deliver a course next month abroad.

I am now preparing the course content, about 120 pages, I will save as a Pdf. file

I assume there will be about 6 to 8 delegates

Does anyone know of a shop or business where I can get my course printed out in color. Maybe to also bind into a book.

It seem too much for my own HP home printer

I am based in Phitsanulok, so a place there would be ideal. If not then I will have to go to Bangkok I suppose.

Any advise appreciated.

Regards

Hi

Does anyone know or can recommend a Jewelry shop in Bangkok where I can get custom gold jewelry made?

I am not an expert but I think the costs would be the weight of the gold plus a percentage for the labour.

I can supply a photo and sometimes a model

A recommendation from experience of the shop would be appreciated as I am a bit of a novice in this area and am looking for honest reasonable dealing.

Thanks

hello

I am trying to get used to drinking wine

I find I only like sweet wines, dry wines seem too bitter

Problem is I find 95% of wines available in Thailand are dry and hence taste bitter

So far have found

Several kinds of port in Foodland, about 1000 Baht / Bottle

Mosaco wine available in Foodland and sometimes Tesco Lotus, about 400 Baht per Bottle

A kind of Thai wine wih a Bin 7 lable on, sweet and fruity, yellow color, in Big C about 350 Baht per bottle

There as some very cheap sparking wines available

Can anyone recommend any other sweet wines available in Thailand at shops in Bangkok or pub etc

Thanks in advance

hi,

Thanks for the feedback

The picture was a complete square on the Sony wide screen TV.

What I would like would be to adjust it so it matches the wide screen (ness) of the Sony.

Thanks

Hi,

Many thanks for posting this and also for Thai Visa to have the offer available to them.

I am interested in signing up, I work rotation, Azerbaijan with time off in Thailand.

One item

I wish to watch this using my Laptop to receive and from there to my flat screen TV, using a HD cable (I think).

The last time I tried to feed the signal from my laptop to my wide screen Sony Bravia TV the display on the Sony TV was square.

My question is

Is it possible to adjust the size of the dispay to match the TV, either by the laptop or Sony settings.

Once again thanks

The Behoover

Hi

As mentioned before many thanks for the feedback

What does "behoove" means sponser, sounds like a cow term? or a machine sucking up dust?

Anyway as mentioned in my initial post " am out of the country now on a works computer" hence cannot give specific details on my old modem and the new modem-router I have now. I will be home in 3 weeks and will give then.

I dont think my old modems are "blind" to operating systems as they need a drive to work. When I tried to use my old modem on Vista is says " This operating system does not support this equipment". Hence when you purchase a modem or router is should say suitable for Vista, Win 7 etc.

Anyway I digress or am I "behooving" again?

For my FTP to allow access I need either to find a modem only suitable for Vista and Win 7 or portforward my present modem-router.

For information I seached Ebay and did find the following:

BRAND NEW ADSL BROADBAND MODEM

Price 3 pounds 99 pence.

Spec

The BT Voyager 190 Modem is a state of the art ADSL Ethernet Modem that lets you connect one Ethernet device (computer, games console etc) to your ADSL Broadband.

It is Driverless and as such is compatible with any PPPoE capable device. It can be used with Windows Vista.

The BT Voyager 190 Modem was developed for AOL Broadband. It offers a complete package of ADSL modem and filters to ensure fast Internet and reliability.

What's good...

Anyway for such a low price and as it is Vista compatable I bought it and plan to try it when I get home.

Anyway all for now i have some hovering or is it behoovering to do.

Thanks again

Hi

Many thanks for your helpful replies

For info I had to stop using my old modem (s) as Vista does not support them.

Looks like I have no choice but to port forward, so I will wait 3 weeks till I am home and then come back here to request assistance to do this.

Bye for now

Hello,

First this is my second post re modem only, sorry for repeating myself, I am out of the country now on a works computer and for some reason it will not allow searches hence re-opening my topic rather than continue with the previous.

OK

Define problem

I have changed operating systems from XP to Vista ( shortly going to Win 7 ) and have had to change my modem to a modem router. Result has been that my friends are unable to access my FTP.

Please note windows firewall is off, so it is not that.

I know that I most probably have to port forward my modem router but do not wish to carry this out as ( for me ) it is quite complex requiring static ip setup ect.

Hence I see a possible easy solution if I can buy a MODEM ONLY not a router, similar to my original set up but now suitable for Vista and Win 7.

Does anyone know if it is possible to buy a MODEM ONLY either in Thailand or off Ebay?

Or if someone has one to sell I would buy.

Note my internet service is 3BB. 650 Baht per month package

Thanks in advance

Chris

hi

thanks for the info

I will do some tests and reply

Bye

Hi,

Any help on this item appreciated

Regarding FPTs

I have used FPTs when had windows XP using modems to connect to the internet, I had a Billion brand modem, no problems.

I now use Vista and my Billion and other modems dont work with Vista.

I have tried to find an upto date modem without success, the only item I can find is a Zyxel router which I use now. Problem is the router blocks access to my ftp.

I think I should port forward but this is too complicated for me, so I am stuck.

Does anyone know where I can buy a modem only ( not router that is good for Vista and Win 7?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

hello

Any advice or assistance on the following appreciated

I have a retirement visa and multiple entry which finishes on 10th January.

I live upcountry and get me visa and extensions done there.

I have been requested to go to another country for about 5 weeks on or about 7tlh December.

This means I will arrive back in Thailand after my retirement and multiple entry visa expires.

It would be ideal to extend my retirement visa early.

I have heard you may be able to extend 30days early but I am looking for more than that.

Thanks in advance
