Calling them "ordered pairs" probably works well...

FWIW, this is how your font test.vi front panel appears on my machine:

I double checked all the settings on both computers and they're exactly the same.

I've attached a Word doc that shows how the screens differ on a little example screen. I also included the VI in case anybody would care to load it and see if it looks right on their screen.

I really like, and recommend, the free program JkDefrag:

Hi,

I noticed my disk state had become really bad and was affecting performance, my page file was split all over the place.

I wondered what disk defreg tools people used or would recommend as an alternative to the included windows XP degragmenter, which seem very slow and does not really seem to fully do the job that is asked of it.

cheers

Not much new content (except perhaps the user comments beneath), but Wired made a post on this yesterday as well:

...for those interested in additional insight into Heinlein's thought process, the often overlooked (and often dismissed!) "Grumbles from the Grave" makes for somewhat interesting reading:

Thanks Rolf by reminding me on this book, I really liked it and I hope peace will really come some day.

...just tried it on the client I'm on --- and it certainly does! :thumbup:

Using version 1.0 on a high bandwidth connection to start with.

p.s. What an elegant configuration setup that is...

Received this a short time ago. Passing on for those following the licensing thread... :-)

Subject: Required Patch for National Instruments Software Licensed through NI Volume License Manager

Dear NI VLM Administrator,

We want to inform you about a required patch that National Instruments

recently made available for all NI Volume License Manager (NI VLM) users

running LabWindows/CVI 7.1, DIAdem 9.1, TestStand 3.1, or TestStand 3.1

deployments. You and/or your users can download this patch from:

KnowledgeBase 3FSB1T6E: Application Software Programs Licensed Through NI

VLM Stop Running When Disconnected From the Server for More Than 12 Minutes

http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/websearch...5E?OpenDocument

What Is Affected: Any computer running LabWindows/CVI 7.1, and/or DIAdem

9.1, and/or TestStand 3.1, including deployed systems, which checks out

licenses over the network via the NI Volume License Manager is affected.

What Happens: If the network goes down for more than 12 consecutive

minutes, any active instance of LabWindows/CVI, DIAdem, or TestStand,

including deployed TestStand systems, will immediately stop running and

shut down.

Note: This is especially important for deployed TestStand systems that get

their license from NI VLM over a network.

Necessary Actions: To correct the behavior, you must install the patch on

all computers administered by NI VLM, running LabWindows/CVI 7.1, DIAdem

9.1, or NI TestStand 3.1. You can do this in several different ways:

When I recieved our LabVIEW SSP update, it included a letter apologizing for the delay. The letter reads, in part -

"[...] In an effort to deliver LabVIEW 7.1 as part of your subscription, an error occurred in the shipping process. This problem may have caused a delay in receiving your upgrade, which you will find enclosed in this package. Please accept our apologies for any inconvience this may have caused. In order to reveive your new software as soon as possible, please follow the steps below.

If you did receive your LabVIEW 7.1 SSP update, please destroy the registration card and software because the serial number is no longer valid. Note that you do not need to uninstall the software, simply keep the serial number included in this package for your records.

If you did not receive the LabVIEW 7.1 SSP update, please accept our apology for the delay. Your package is included with this letter. If you receive another LabVIEW 7.1 shipment (in addition to this package) erroneously, please destroy the registration card and software as the serial number is no longer valid. [...]"

Regards,

akamu
