It's good to know that someone is out there gathering and preserving them.

We saw lots of problems with those proprietary Aztech sound cards that Packard Bell often used (the really long ones with integrated modems and CD-ROM controllers) if one of those integrated components failed, we had to install two or three new cards to replace them all, and the smaller desktop systems often didn't offer enough internal expansion. Such minor upgrades could help someone extend the life of their system for a while, but they weren't enough to keep pace with the rapid growth of PC technology in those years, or the plunging costs of new systems. I remember that our customers were very disappointed that Packard Bell's systems offered so few opportunities for upgrades, beyond very incremental improvements like bigger hard drives and more memory. Afterward, I worked as a PC tech for a few years, and people were upgrading Packard Bell systems (or, more often, junking them) like crazy the shop I was working for got about a dozen of them in a week at one point. A few of the guys in our store had a null modem cable set up between two Packard Bell display units, for playing Doom on the sly. You can restore the PC from the master CD /.

![]() Types of line spectra Continuous spectrum of an incandescent lamp (mid) and discrete spectrum lines of a fluorescent lamp (bottom) These "fingerprints" can be compared to the previously collected ones of atoms and molecules, and are thus used to identify the atomic and molecular components of stars and planets, which would otherwise be impossible. Spectral lines are often used to identify atoms and molecules. ![]() It may result from emission or absorption of light in a narrow frequency range, compared with the nearby frequencies.

Others followed this use in the 1930s and the terminology has remained to this day. įriedrich Hund introduced the s, p, d, f notation for subshells in atoms. Heinrich Kayser, Carl Runge and Johannes Rydberg found mathematical relations between the wave numbers of emission lines of the alkali metals. In 1915 proof was given that it was actually ionised helium - helium II. This was believed to be the sharp series of hydrogen. Pickering found a new series of lines in the spectrum of ζ Puppis. Īrno Bergmann found a fourth series in infrared in 1907, and this became known as Bergmann Series or fundamental series. Rydberg continued the use of sharp and diffuse for the other lines, whereas Kayser and Runge preferred to use the term second subordinate series for the sharp series. In 1890 the lines that also appeared in the absorption spectrum were termed the principal series. They classified alkali metal spectral lines into sharp and diffuse categories. They were the first to use the term "sharp" for the lines. They noticed that lines for sodium were alternating sharp and diffuse. History Īt Cambridge University George Liveing and James Dewar set out to systematically measure spectra of elements from groups I, II and III in visible light and ultraviolet that would transmit through air. Magnesium has a sharp series of triplets and a sharp series of singlets. Calcium Ĭalcium has a sharp series of triplets and a sharp series of singlets. The sharp series of singlet lines has series letter S and formula 1P-mS. Potassium potassium sharp series Ī sharp series of triplet lines is designated by series letter s and formula 1p-ms. When n tends to infinity the diffuse and sharp series end up with the same limit. The sharp series has given the letter s to the s atomic orbital or subshell. The sharp series was important in the development of the understanding of electron shells and subshells in atoms. The lines get closer and closer together as the frequency increases never exceeding the series limit. The spectral lines include some in the visible light, and they extend into the ultraviolet. The sharp series is a series of spectral lines in the atomic emission spectrum caused when electrons descend from higher-energy s orbitals of an atom to the lowest available p orbital. ![]() # -Updated by Bram Cohen, JAMF Software, LLC, on September 10th, 2014 # -Updated by Sam Fortuna, JAMF Software, LLC, on August 5th, 2014 # -Created by Sam Fortuna, JAMF Software, LLC, on June 18th, 2014 # The format must be asset number in the first column, serial number in the second, mac address in the third, and computer name last # This script reads a CSV of computer data and imports them to the JSS. # SOFTWARE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE. # (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE USE OF THIS # ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR TORT # LOSS OF USE, DATA, OR PROFITS OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION) HOWEVER CAUSED AND # (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES # DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES IN NO EVENT SHALL JAMF SOFTWARE, LLC BE LIABLE FOR ANY # WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE ARE # EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED # THIS SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED BY JAMF SOFTWARE, LLC "AS IS" AND ANY # derived from this software without specific prior written permission. # names of its contributors may be used to endorse or promote products # * Neither the name of the JAMF Software, LLC nor the # documentation and/or other materials provided with the distribution. # notice, this list of conditions and the following disclaimer in the # * Redistributions in binary form must reproduce the above copyright # notice, this list of conditions and the following disclaimer. # * Redistributions of source code must retain the above copyright # modification, are permitted provided that the following conditions are met: # Redistribution and use in source and binary forms, with or without # Copyright (c) 2014, JAMF Software, LLC.

On the typical home, you'll need three types of lights: Pathway lights, bullet lights, and in-ground well lights. Now design your landscape lighting layout. LED lights will also last 50 times as long as Halogen this means significant long-term savings and much less maintenance. The advantage of LED is huge energy savings, though your up-front cost may be much more. A typical Halogen landscape bullet, for example, can use as much as 60 watts, but an LED of the same brightness will use only 10. They are relatively inexpensive, yet they use a large amount of electricity. Halogen landscape lights are the traditional type of landscape lighting. Next, you have the choice of Halogen or LED landscape lights. When used with the right outdoor transformer, low voltage lights are safe, easy to install, and even easier to maintain. Instead, we suggest low voltage landscape lights that operate at either 12 or 24 volts. For this reason, doesn't carry solar landscape lights, nor do we recommend them. Solar landscape lights are dim and produce light for only a few hours. Solar lighting is inexpensive, easy to install, and doesn't use any electricity since it derives all its power from the photovoltaic panels on the fixture. Line voltage landscape lighting is also available, but is only recommended for large commercial applications. To begin your project, decide between solar and low voltage landscape lighting. When used thoughtfully, landscape lighting can have a transformative effect on your lawn, highlighting focal points and adding dimension to your yard. During the day, your neighbors see everything touched by the sun, but at night, you're given a blank canvas that you can "paint" with the right lighting design. However, these applications fall far short of what is possible with landscape lighting. Others may install inexpensive solar powered LED lights to line their sidewalks or flower beds. For example, we put PAR38 Halogens above our garages and entrances so we can see at night and detect intruders. Most homeowners install landscape lighting for safety concerns. ![]() Starting today, Apple’s global community of developers will be able to create an entirely new class of spatial computing apps that take full advantage of the infinite canvas in Vision Pro and seamlessly blend digital content with the physical world to enable extraordinary new experiences.

For Mac users wanting to iinstall Windows, that's kind of a Catch-22 - you need Windows for the tool that will let you install Windows. But one of the issues is that the tools the poster referenced only work on Windows. The script makes that really post, and interesting that they consider what Parallels did "amateurish". Or I can post a manual procedure - but that's complicated if your system language is not US English as you have to go to Microsoft to find the files for the download. I'd appreciate some kind souls to test it out before I include it as part of the Companion. I have a prototype script that automates the build process. And it works on the Mac with only one open-source package download. The ISO build process from a downloaded ESD from Microsoft is actually relatively quick compared to building from. And Parallels' note that they are getting Windows "from Microsoft", while technically true, isn't exactly the same as getting an ISO from Microsoft. I'm still not finding anywhere that Microsoft is providing a ISO, but having an ESD is big step forward. Similar to what Fusion does for its easy install where supported. The Parallels installation process is injecting something in the install, though, since there are a lot of questions in the Parallels installation from ISO that are being answered for you. Keep your fingers what I'm seeing in reverse engineering the process, Parallels appears to be taking the bits for the arm64 boot loader that Microsoft provides in the ESD. If this works out, I'm set to remove all references to uupdump from the Companion guide in favor of this process. It's installing files to the hard drive right now, and in about an hour or so I should have a working VM. I'm going through final testing right now, but the initial tests have the ISO booting entering Windows Setup. The reverse-engineered process uses the utilities in the open source package wimlib-imagex, and the macOS command hdiutil. What they're doing is not rocket science. I did not feel comfortable extracting stuff from the Parallels ISO, so I went down the reverse engineering path to see exactly what they were doing. Given the information the (the link was very helpful) - I have reversed engineer the process that Parallels is using to get a Windows 11 ARM ISO directly from Microsoft (well, they don't get the ISO from Microsoft, but they are getting the ESD and using open source and macOS tools to create the ISO). Hey everyone! I think I have a breakthrough. So who blinks first? Microsoft to release publicly the ISO for Windows 11 ARM, or VMware to provide a similar ISO for download like Parallels does? So, if you have this Windows 11 ARM ISO that Parallels downloaded for you, the installation of a Fusion Windows 11 ARM VM just got a little easier. So far the VM is behaving fine and updating itself to the 2023-02 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 for arm64-based Systems. No issues with the ISO and no changes to the procedures in the Companion Guide. I skipped the procedures in the Companion Guide for building an ISO from and jumped straight to the procedure to create a VM and install from ISO.
