Linux Mint v19.03
My re-interest in Linux was brought about by the end of life of Windows 7, and wondering what options may exist for people who aren’t chained to the Windows Operating System. Since I had used Ubuntu ten years, that was the first distribution I went back to play with, and it’s a great setup, but…
Read MoreUbuntu Operating System
About 10 years ago I was using Ubuntu for just about everything at home. I honestly don’t think I had a computer or laptop that wasn’t booting Ubuntu. Part of that interest was due to my programming and web hosting requirements, and when WAMP (Windows Apache, MySQL and PHP) became available, I actually went back…
Read MoreHDIPTV.ONLINE
It took a long time to find an alternative to MyIPTV.Store but I think I’ve found one! HDIPTV.ONLINE seems to fill the gap nicely. It’s only $5 US a month per seat and has good collection of Canadian and US Channels and so far they respond promptly and are likely worth a look. MyIPTV.Store basically…
Read MoreIPTV Update
Last year was a rough year for some IPTV providers.

Read MoreIPTV using a MAG Set Top Box
My testing with various IPTV subscriptions using a Mag254 set top box went so much better than my previous trials using the Kodi software. There is no comparison and using a Set Top Box is definitely the way to go!
Read MoreIPTV Services for Canadian Users Using a Computer and/or Kodi
Introduction With online options coming available for TV service (called IPTV) I set out to play with some of the offerings and determine if we could become “cord cutters” and get a whole whack of channels for a lot less money. In short? IPTV was a huge disappointment. If you want to stick around I…
Read MoreThunderbird Email Client
While many people enjoy “web-based” email through providers like Yahoo, Hotmail and Gmail (or even through our hosting plans on Interpool-hosting.ca or CobourgCloud.com) many businesses or heavy email users require or prefer to use a local email program (or “email client”) instead. If you are a Microsoft Office user you most likely use the included…
