31/07/2007 by swordfish.
The computer POST (Power On Self Test) tests a computer, to make sure that it meets the necessary system requirements before booting up. If the POST fails, beep codes are often produced that point to the nature of the POST error.

BBC iPlayer Update
31/07/2007 by swordfish.
As people flocked to the iPlayer section of the BBC website last Friday – the soft launch of the iPlayer beta – to register and download the client, most were surprised and disappointed to find that Auntie has not opened the iPlayer to a full public beta trial as had been implied. It’s still a closed trial; you just have the opportunity to register interest, which is more than you could do previously.
To be fair, the BBC didn’t specifically say it would be a free-for-all, but it didn’t do anything to correct speculation and rumour that come last Friday, licence fee payers across the land would be able to download BBC shows.
