Some of you are already being served by this. Rollout across the USA should be done by next spring.<br /> Runs both horizontal and vertical waves to get a significantly better picture of what is going on. One more step in getting more accurate warnings will save more lives.<br /> <a href="http://www.srh.noaa.gov/bmx/?n=dualpolupgrade_bmx" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.srh.noaa.gov/bmx/?n=dualpolupgrade_bmx</a> </p> http://www.winextra.com/forums/topic/10796#post-54074 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 09:38:48 +0000 Ron 54074@http://www.winextra.com/forums/ <p>ZDNet has an article that the 2.0 version is priced around $7,600 </p> http://www.winextra.com/forums/topic/10795#post-54073 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 01:46:50 +0000 Garry 54073@http://www.winextra.com/forums/ <p>free products require a newsletter subscription</p> <p>Nothing a gmail filter can't fix &lt;img src=&quot;http://www.winextra.com/forums/my-plugins/smiley-choice/Default Smiley/icon_smile.gif&quot; title=&quot;:-)&quot; class=&quot;bb_smilies&quot; /&gt; </p> <p>EDTI:<br /> Apparently I have a subscription already</p> <p>must not send out a lot of stuff then </p> http://www.winextra.com/forums/topic/10796#post-54072 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 01:41:51 +0000 Garry 54072@http://www.winextra.com/forums/ <p>Surface has been around since 2005 but is urber expensive and ahead of most of the complimentary technology at that time.<br /> I now has a good future and should come down to within the "Expensive" range </p> http://www.winextra.com/forums/topic/10796#post-54071 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 20:29:02 +0000 Pierre 54071@http://www.winextra.com/forums/ <p>Yes it is. There's been a demo here at the Microsoft TechDays (which is taking place in Paris from February 7 – yesterday – through February 9 – tomorrow). Of course it's only a prototype, but well advanced – and definitely beyond my budget &lt;img src=&quot;http://www.winextra.com/forums/my-plugins/smiley-choice/Default Smiley/icon_wink.gif&quot; title=&quot;;)&quot; class=&quot;bb_smilies&quot; /&gt; </p> http://www.winextra.com/forums/topic/10796#post-54070 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 19:33:03 +0000 Ron 54070@http://www.winextra.com/forums/ <p><a href="http://www.microsoft.com/surface/en/us/whatissurface.aspx" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.microsoft.com/surface/en/us/whatissurface.aspx</a> </p> http://www.winextra.com/forums/topic/10795#post-54069 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 05:52:47 +0000 Steven Hodson 54069@http://www.winextra.com/forums/ <p>nice catch Ron </p> http://www.winextra.com/forums/topic/10795#post-54068 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 05:36:48 +0000 Ron 54068@http://www.winextra.com/forums/ <p><a href="https://www.daz3d.com/i/3d-models/all-products-promotions?cat=1068#1,cat_1068_382" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.daz3d.com/i/3d-models/all-products-promotions?cat=1068#1,cat_1068_382</a> </p> <p>Also lots of models and extra content are currently free. </p> http://www.winextra.com/forums/topic/10791#post-54055 Sun, 05 Feb 2012 08:42:50 +0000 Pierre 54055@http://www.winextra.com/forums/ <p>Oh, I will. I'll probably go to the same surgeon who recently operated on my friend's left eye last November – he (the surgeon) postponed the second eye because the cataract isn't in an advanced enough state. </p> http://www.winextra.com/forums/topic/10791#post-54054 Sat, 04 Feb 2012 20:54:51 +0000 Nate 54054@http://www.winextra.com/forums/ <p>My advice would be to choose an ophthalmologist who is currently doing a *lot* of cataract surgery using modern technology such as an ultrasonic scalpel. I know that my guy does at least 15 a week, probably more, has been doing them for a long time, and is very good at it. </p> <p>There are several studies that show that high success rates of surgical procedures are correlated with the number performed at the institution and the surgeon. Both the surgeon and the support team are in good practice. </p> <p>I made sure to get a referral (which resulted in another referral) when I found I had prostate cancer. I got advice and finally picked an urologist who had been in med school when laproscopic surgery was starting to be used and learned it. (Coincidentally he was a friend and classmate of my urologist, too). After he was in practice he was the one who trained urologists in a couple of hospitals well known in southern California for their excellence. That's one of the best decisions I have made in the last decade, I think. </p>
