Quick easy steps to get your Xbox 360 kickin on LIVE!


So you want to get your Xbox 360 online and get past the stone ages huh? Well we'll give a real quick and easy guide to get that up and going for you! Make sure that you have internet service in your house preferably DSL, contact your local internet provider for more info.



Step one:


Go to your local electronic super store and either search or ask for a Linksys wired router. (Note a Linksys wireless router would work just as well. Also purchase a network cable long enough to reach from the router to the Xbox 360 while you're there!

Step Two:


Read through the manual on how to set this up on your current home network. Really all you would need to do is plug the network cable that connects your DSL modem and computer together into the Uplink/Internet port on the router. (Note: you will need an extra cable to plug your PC into the router so you still have internet access on your PC! Usually Linksys Routers comes standard with one 6ft long network cable for just that purpose.)

Step Three:


Connect the network cable you also purchased from the router to the Xbox 360. From there power on your 360 and go to the options and run the connection test. From there you should be all set and ready to game LIVE!

A neat little trick! 2.0


Today we'll mention another neat little trick that many people didn't realize Windows XP could do. That's being able to create a CD without any burning software required!

There is a piece of hardware that you must have which is a CD Writer device on your computer. Once you have this follow these simple steps:

1. Put a Blank CD into your CD Writer/Burner.
2. Locate the files you wish to put on that CD then copy and paste them onto the CD Writer ( You do this by double clicking the CD Writer's icon)
3. Right-click the CD Writer Icon and select the Write these files to CD button
4. A Wizard will pop and from there it will walk you through the final steps.

Can't believe you can do all this without third party software huh?

A neat little trick!


I'm sure we've all ran into this while operating a computer:

You have your favorite music CD playing in your CD-Rom Player and you're FINALLY tired of listening to the same tracks. So you decide to give your ole CD a rest and you hit the eject button.....OH NOOO the door won't open whatever shall I do! Don't worry follow these simple steps and you're have you favorite Justin Timberlake CD in your hands in no time.




1. Scavenge around your area for a paper clip
2. Unfold the paper clip so that half of the clip is straight and the rest is stilled curled.

3. Look for a tiny hole located on the front of your CD-Rom Player and stick the straight end of the paper clip into that hole.

4. Push the clip in all the way until...viola you've forced your CD eating Cd-Rom Player to give you your CD back!


Have Fun!!!

i Google what in the world!



Hey folks Google seems to have done it again, with it's latest attempts at taking over the world....just kidding just kidding. Unless you've been living under a rock (not that there's anything wrong with that) I'm sure you're familiar with the word or rather term Google. They started off with just a simple search engine that worked extremely well. From there they invested and invented many things via the internet virtual world.

Their latest and by far one of our personal faves besides Google Earth is there creation of iGoogle. It's simply the Google search engine on steroids so to speak. With iGoogle it includes things such as a virtual ticking clock, lists of stock market indexes, weather in your area, and tons of other things.

The best part is that it's completely customizable.
However there are some draw backs, the main one being that it easily takes more processing power than the simple Google search engine. Even though most PC's can handle it now days if your's can't then you need to check out one of our rebuilt PC's. Sorry I just had to throw in that plug in! Also it seems kind of cluttered especially when all you want to do is search for something in a hurry. Anyways it's def. worth checking out sometime it's very easy to use and understand. I set myself up in literally 5 minutes. We rate iGoogle: 8 out of 10

Six Flags St. Louis


There are currently over 10 different Six Flags locations worldwide with St. Louis being one of the first places to establish this franchise. Six Flags St. Louis was the third Six Flags to be built in 1971 in the Eureka area just 15 minutes out of St. Louis.

Six Flags has over 100 acres of space giving thrill seekers more than enough to do to entertain them for day. With over 7 roller coasters and 1 on the way this YEAR you can see why this amusement park has been in business so long.

The rumor is that the newest roller coaster edition will be wooden and named the Evel Kienevel after the American dare devil. This roller coaster will be designed to also through and around the Moon Cars ride currently there. Six Flags has it all from smaller family rides to 200 foot tall tower drops. This is a great family destination in St. Louis that I recommend to all.

Also ever since new management has taken over they have made the priority of entertainment rather then obtaining a quick buck. So have fun and be carefull out there Thrill Seekers and don't forget to check out the included video about the park. From this point forward we at Infinite Computer Designs are going to try and include a video for each blog rather than just a picture. We'll quickly see how this goes.

What's there to do at the St. Louis ZOO!


If you're from the St. Louis region then there is a good chance that at least one time in your life you have been to the St. Louis Zoo. It's long been a staple in St. Louis history since 1910 when it was created by the Zoological Society of St. Louis.

When the site of the St. Louis zoo was being picked out many citizens had concern about the possibility of smelling the animals from the comfort of their home! Eventually the area of St. Louis settled on a 77-acre estate in Forest Park which is where the World Fair was located in 1904.

The St. Louis Zoo is one of the most recognized zoos in the world. The best part about St. Louis Zoo is that it's absolutely FREE! This is def. a must see place in St. Louis and is a family favorite among everyone rather young or old.

Mozilla Firefox


Hello today we're going to do a quick review of Mozilla Firefox. Firefox is an alternative to the default Internet Explorer installed on Windows machines. The best thing about Firefox is that's it's absolutely FREE! Not only that but you can customize Firefox to fit you're own personal preference. You do things such as

  • Add weather update icons
  • Change layout of Firefox
  • Add your own custom mp3 player setup!
For this reason alone we decided to bundle this software with every system we sell so keep a look out on all you can do with Firefox!
