Speaking of buses - don't take the first one you see. Ask about the style (sitting or sleeping / multi deck) and how many enforced stops.…

Just another thought - Vietnam can be a noisy and busy place, but that can grow on you. It's easy to find quieter areas even in the big…

I disagree with the street food suggestion. Your own hygiene around having clean hands and face is more the issue with eating street side.…

"Wait for a break in traffic" - that ain't gonna happen on a lot of streets in the busier cities. You can pick better times to do it but to…

Hi Hol. I did the trip to the old base and Long Tan in 2009 and had a good result organising it. I'd recommend using a tour company that…

If I understand it all correctly - the licenses are legit but are being sold incorrectly. They're intended for hardware/service provider…

Purists will take issue with them, but I'm ok with using sites like that. I've previously used Pixelcodes but looks like they're out of…

Mate, thank you. I'm typing this reply on the Latitude 7300 with the working DW5821e. A post on the Dell community forum gave it up... -…

There's a DOS based tool that can change the Service Tag. Not sure if it was a factory tool that leaked etc, but it's around the traps.…

Good point. My Service Tag comes in as a Vostro 3902 desktop - I just checked the user manual and it has a traditional desktop looking…

Thanks. Yep, I've picked up the right WWAN card from an eBay seller- a DW5821e. This is one is new in the box, and it's the reason I've…

I'm wondering if they did it to block future warranty claims. i.e. If they were sold with 5 year warranties and refurb'd after 3. Looks…

The iOS app shows an English manual for the device, once set up. It's basic though - just a "How to Turn On" and "How to clean the filter"…
