    STOP RENTING or BUYING MOVIES or PAYING for ON-DEMAND SHOWS... NETFLIX , REDBOX., or ROKU.... Quit the TORRENTS. DOWNLOADS.... <br>
    Tired of paying for CABLE and UNLOCKING. CHANNELS. and. On-DEMAND. ,
    CUT. THE.
    CABLE. CORD…, try this out....



    ==================================                               
     ——- KODI —— I P T V ——
    ==================================


    Both are comparable to NETFLIX. , REDBOX. , or ROKU .....but are totally
    free in some cases…..
    Runs on many or almost - ANY - platform now if you don't want to deal with
    a cable or satellite set-top box...


    Only requirement for all is "INTERNET - ACCESS" and
    even "CELLULAR" will work... and watch from almost any device - “NOT
    LIMITED TO TV ONLY”
    and almost "ANYWHERE"....as well…

    This is basically "INTERNET. TV"....called....IPTV.....


    ==========================================


    FREE. CABLE. OR. IPTV. IS. ALREADY. HERE. IN

    YOUR. TV. - YOU. JUST. NEED. TO. CONNECT.

    YOUR. TV. TO. THE. INTERNET. INSTEAD. OF.

    YOUR. ANTENNA…..


    ==========================================


    If you just want FREE. CABLE. or. FREE. IPTV.

    just get an ANDROID TV. or. GOOGLE. TV

    or SONY. TV.


    -- FREE. CABLE. or FREE. IPTV. is already. Included--

    called - FREE. TV. or. L I V E. TV

    -- All you need is to connect your TV to the Internet
    --

    ===========================================


    Otherwise just keep reading and follow along

    The AMAZON FIRE series including the FIRESTICK now
    has FREE. CABLE or.

    FREE. IPTV providers hidden inside as well in a section
    called "L I V E".... or...,
    F R E E. T V

    Under that there is a section which list which ones are
    FREE and PAID. and you can download the free ones
    and add them to your "Guide" section using the

    "settings" menu... and have a whole free IPTV section
    with local channels, news, movies, tv shows etc

    under the "L I V E" or……,
    "F R E E. T V"....menu...


    ===========================================


    This is your BASIC CABLE. and FREE. CHANNELS
    on this box
    without going any further but for just a few more $$$
    you can get all cable channels in every country in the

    world and all movies both old and new instead of
    paying an arm and a leg for a cable subscription or
    renting movies or going to the theater.


    ===========================================


    Just buy the streaming box, hardware or software and
    don't pay anything or anybody else...

    Some programming maybe required only to get the
    complete streaming package but that's it...

    Other cable channels are offered on a individual basis
    and sometimes on a paid basis if you can't find what
    you are looking for here...and some are actually free..


    ==========================================



    Just buy the streaming box, hardware or software and
    don't pay anything or anybody else...

    Some programming maybe required only to get the
    complete streaming package but that's it...

    Windows, Mac, IOS, Android, Linux, Raspberry PI,
    Computers…Cellphones and Tablets too

    - YES …


    ===========================================
    KODI
    ===========================================


    Or streaming boxes as they are called
    AppleTV, Amazon Fire TV box or Cube , Nvidia Shield and the

    Amazon FireTV Stick, etc... which means either your TV, Cellphone, Tablet
    or any type of Computer…

    The KODI software is free - usually just an App -, free download, all you
    need is the hardware or

    platform to run it on and some
    computer know how to set it up if you want to do it yourself.....

    Free cable, movies, sports, pay-per-view, radio, on-demand, adult, etc...
    KODI even has free IPTV providers hidden inside and new ones

    Have been added since I last look so absolutely
    Free Cable IPTV inside of KODI including local
    Channels if you know where to look…

    They have been there for many years for those
    Of us who knew how to recognize them and

    They are just growing to hopefully become a
    Standard like your cable companies basic cable
    Channels…

    Since this is all free, part of the service may go down from Time to time
    so be aware of that…

    $65 my setup fee or best offer...
    The Kodi is free but you could pay a small fee for 3 , 6, or 9 months of unlimited latest movies as well as oldies for maybe $19 max flat fee
    depending on

    the length of time you choose…that’s it… that’s all you pay…if you really
    want to pay anything at all - but trust me - it’s worth the price for
    almost ANY

    movie you want to watch - old and new - even those just coming to the
    theaters - for the period of time you chose to pay for….. yep


    ===========================================
    IPTV
    ===========================================


    The IPTV app is free and separate and standalone and different from the
    free ones built into KODI but a lot of

    providers actually have their own Apps and there are generic ones as well
    that will work with any provider and some of those are actually PAID with
    many paid features but free downloads and

    sometimes there’s a trial subscription for the IPTV service but it is subscription based just like your

    cable provider but no contract and you would pay a different provider in
    this case and it starts from $8 to $12+
    a month for 4000+ channels including local

    Channels from all the countries in the world…
    Can’t beat that for - Internet Cable TV - or
    Basic cable from your local cable provider..,

    Some even have MOVIES and TV SHOWS
    section built in for all your latest tv shows both old
    and new

    Even the latest movies just like KODI and almost all the current and
    older movies as well.

    You can get 1 , 3, 6, 9, and 1 year subscriptions as
    well as multiple devices or connections if you have

    more than one connection or tv so unlike cable this is one subscription or connection per tv only.

    So you can have it on only one tv or every tv in
    your house or location or stream it thru the internet

    on your computer with an App if you have a multiple monitors or just one …like a hdmi setup.

    So you may not even need a tv at all…just control
    everything from your computer….

    You just need a streaming box for every tv you want the service on and
    the boxes are dirt cheap now….

    They are even on sale now - Amazon Firetv Stick - for $20
    Or even cheaper during holidays or certain times of

    Year…. It’s small, compact and Wi-Fi device like a little flip phone and just hangs there on the back of your tv…

    Your tv
    Should have both HDMI and USB connections to
    Adequately provide power or just purchase an

    Extra power converter box that plugs in and hangs
    There as well….

    The newest feature is the addition of an adapter
    Which gives you an actual Ethernet connection on
    The Amazon FireTV Stick so you can plug in an Ethernet cable - YES ……. YES

    ===================
    IPTV
    ===================

    The latest craze for KODI is now IPTV or free Internet Worldwide Cable TV channels streaming from the internet

    as long as you don't have a data cap from your ISP.... for as low as $10 a month or even $39.99 for a whole year

    depending on your IPTV service provider.... You get all the
    Pay-Per-View, Movie channels, Cinemax, HBO, Sports

    Events , Adult, etc.... ALL the Cable TV PAID Channels totally FREE with
    your low monthly

    or yearly subscription price.... 600 to 4000+ plus Worldwide channels
    available

    for viewing.... All Countries .... yes that's right - up to 4000+
    channels...

    If you don't like KODI,…..IPTV also runs on streaming boxes or even some

    popular Smart TV's that are internet ready with no extra effort or hardware....Android, ipad, and iphones too

    $65 my setup fee or best offer...
    The IPTV also includes local channels now so you can dump your cable tv
    company

    get local channels for any major city, not just the city that you live in
    or near

    no need to despair about local tv channels because they are all there...


    I cut ties with my cable tv provider or I show say Satellite TV provider
    many years back after year long negotiations where they kept

    offering incentives to keep me from dropping their service... And finally charging me a $400

    Disconnect fee… yes exactly….i paid and left and
    Never looked back…and I bet you can see why…

    I have cut the cable tv cord

    and now stream ALL and Everything from local channels to pay-per-view for
    as low as $10+/month

    I even have the service on multiple devices at the same time...can't beat that...

    I even have all of that on my Cellphone - YES - so it
    is Wi-Fi and cellular also so I’m able to watch tv
    Anywhere I have an internet connection…

    Even get it on your Tablets - YES - and watch tv anywhere you have
    internet….
                           =========================================
    — L O C A L - T V - C H A N N E L S =========================================

    Your antenna tv never actually disappeared or went anywhere, they are still there !!!!

    They just changed from analog to digital... that was the only change
    meaning that all you need is a

    different type antenna to watch tv now....

    You just need to have a flatscreen tv and a different kind of antenna to be able watch antenna tv again...


    The new antenna pulls in up to 99 percent of the channels depending on

    your location and even some of the popular cable channels - yes even more
    local channels now if you don’t want to deal with cable tv -

    My channel scanner pulls in about 60 local channels now - YES - and some of those are your popular cable channels…

    If you are living in the country or rural area the number of channels
    available could vary but in most cases you should get

    some channels. I've seen places where your only option is to get cable
    because no antenna channels are

    available but you won't know till you hook up that <strong>hd digital
    antenna

    and see what you get.

    All of the newer flatscreen tvs have the digital tv boxes built in except
    for an actual DIGITAL ANTENNA so
    you don't have to purchase a special box separately

    like we all did years back when the old analog tv came to an end and we had
    to get this special box in order

    to be able to watch tv again...

    All you need is just a DIGITAL ANTENNA now…

    That’s all….


    Some cable and dish providers have been cutting out certain local channels
    so where you going to go now to

    watch your favorite shows if cable doesn't broadcast your channel(s)
    anymore ???

    Antenna tv is still alive and well so this could be your chance to drop
    cable and dish completely....and some of those
    Cable channels are right there on the new digital antenna TV’s…..

    Tax season is slowly winding down and you are cleaning up but have you
    ever wondered what
    it would be like to run your tax software on a server like a real company
    and not have to share
    computers and logons ??

    Well that day is today, that day has finally come depending on the setup
    of your tax software.
    The server in question is an affordable microsoft windows compatible server............

    The box comes empty for about $300 to $500 and you add your own harddrives
    for another
    $300 to $400 or so depending on where you purchase the harddrives from.
    Totally up to you...

    If you purchase the server box from a reputable source you can add a 4
    year warranty for
    just a few more dollars in addition to the 1 year warranty from the manufacturer.

    In addition to your tax software, the server also runs windows 7 or 10 internally virtually in case you
    wanted a standalone windows that is always running.

    Back to the tax software. The basic principal is that all your tax
    data has to be ported to and
    stored on the server and your tax software configured to run and pull the
    tax data off of the server

    and also tax software must be networkable - and bingo - multiple users can access and use the tax
    software at the same time and change the data or database.

    I have set this up for several of my clients and it works smoothly with
    the only big concern being
    network and internet speed. On a local network the

    software runs well but issues come up when
    the server is located outside of the office and only accessible via
    internet. Depending on your
    internet service provider this where the big bottleneck is but

    like anything else, there is always a workaround which i have found.

    So basically you can have users working both in and out of the office with
    vpn and no degredation of

    performance of your tax software. For the right labor and installation price, this nice server setup
    could be yours.

    Join other companies and network your tax software today before the next
    tax season comes around...

    I can migrate your cnc software to another machine and usually get it up

    WINDOWS. NEWS.
    ===========================================


    Please note that Microsoft is dropping support for Windows 7 in early 2020
    so you will have to

    eventually make that switch to Windows 10 if you still want support for software, devices and

    other peripherals... Companies and manufacturers will be dropping support
    for anything that

    uses Window 7 as well since Microsoft won't be supporting it so keep that
    in mind...

    Windows 11 is out now, want to figure out if your computer is compatible ?

    this could be the end of the road for your pc if you want to run windows 11

    almost like the Apple computer saga where they expire every few years

    ===========================================
    WINDOWS. 11. UPGRADE
    ===========================================

    For those of you who want to keep your old Windows 7 computer and don’t
    have the disc to
    Reinstall your old software you can just upgrade
    To Windows 10 which is almost a bare minimum

    Windows standard now and keep most of your
    Installed software and all of your files without having to back them up.

    The upgrade software will tell you what is
    Upgradable or compatible with Windows 10.

    Windows 11 upgrade is also available but not a
    Standard, not always complete and could be buggy.
    It bypasses a few things just to install sometimes
    So it’s not always a complete upgrade….

    MICROSOFT. BLUE. SCREEN. OF. DEATH =====================================

    So you don’t like Windows and the famous Microsoft BOD - Blue Screen of Death - then you
    Can port or create a virtual machine out of your

    Running windows and run it on VMware, some
    Servers, Synology, Windows emulators, Macs / Apple (these come with their
    own virtual Windows for

    Free). Otherwise the rest of the virtual machine
    Compatible mentioned above are paid software
    Requiring you to have the base system to run them

    On. Virtualbox is still free and runs on both Mac /
    Apple and PC and Unix and others as well..

    The virtual machines are usually able to catch and
    Repair the Microsoft BOD - Blue Screen Of Death
    - among other things…most of the time…

    I’ve been breathing a sigh of relief many times as well as panic when
    I got the BOD on my Synology server and VMware

    Installations… but they fixed themselves miraculously…. I had to pinch myself really hard
    When my windows booted back up….

    Feel free to check out my website for more details
    See how I finally ended up getting windows 11 to run on my old pc box
    without having to buy a new computer
