MAIN SAFETY FEATURES:
Loaded Chamber Indicator
Taurus provides a loaded chamber indicator on all new compact, medium and large frame pistols. As with all Taurus safety and security innovations, the indicator in no way interferes with the operation of your pistol and is provided at no extra cost, but gives you an “at-a-glance” verification that there is a round in the chamber. When a round is in the chamber, the ejector pops out of the slide, exposing a red strip just behind the ejection port. While any loaded chamber indicator is no substitute for common sense and safe firearm handling, it is one more example of Taurus’ commitment to outstanding firearms.
Taurus Security System (TSS)s
Taurus family of semi-auto pistols now feature the Taurus Security System, which provides instant-ready defense with built-in ability to secure your pistol and make it inoperable at the turn of a key. When the Security System is engaged, the pistol cannot be fired or cocked and the gun’s manual safety cannot be disengaged. As with our revolver Security System, the device is part of the firearm and cannot be lost, and the same special Security Key works for both the revolver and pistol Systems (two keys come with each gun). To engage: simply insert the Key into the button on the rear or side of the pistol and rotate one-quarter turn clockwise. This engages the Security System. The manual safety cannot be moved and the trigger cannot be pulled. To disengage: simply rotate the key one-quarter turn back. This releases the Security System, yet leaves the pistol’s manual safety in the “safe” position until you are ready to release it yourself and fire the gun.

Dell Studio 15 Nice Laptop
October 21, 2008
I was able to review this Dell laptop Studio 15 which is very nice. Check out the video below where I will show you all the features on this laptop. I also have added below all the drivers in a ZIP file so that you can downgrade the computer from Windows Vista 64bit to Windows XP 32bit.
You can purchase this laptop straight from the DELL WEBSITE or BEST BUY
One of my viewers on youtube was a great help by letting me know that the button on the side that I mention in the video, next to the wireless is actually a wifi button where a menu pops up and shows all of the wireless routers near but he mentioned it might not work with windows xp. Also he mentioned that the battery that sticks out is only for the 9 CELL battery, the 6 CELL battery is flat and does not stick out. I want to thank “SUPERUDE24” on Youtube for your contribution.
The right color for you!. Along with the nice design and quality of this laptop, you also have many colors to choose from. This is great especially if you are getting 2 or more for you home or office. This can help you quickly identify who it belongs to.
TECHNICAL SPECS:
In the traditional Dell style, this laptop is not one size fits all. You can go on the website and customize the laptop there and get more of what you need on this unit. If you buy it at a Best Buy for example, it will already have a standard configuration which is can go from $749 to $849 depending on the features. Some of the features included with this model are listed below.
- Windows Vista Premium 64bit
- Intel Core 2 Duo
- Intel integrated graphics card
- 4 Gigabytes of DDR2 Ram
- 320 Gigabyte Hard drive upgraded up to 500GB
- 15.4 High resolution Glossy widescreen (NOT VERY GOOD FOR THE OUTDOORS)
- Intel high definition audio 2.0
- DVD Writer, can also be upgraded to a Blu-ray drive
- 6 or 9 Cell battery options
- Built-in 2.0MP webcam
- 4 USB 2.0 Ports
- Bluetooth
Click on the following link to download the drivers for Windows XP 32bit. They are in a zip file. I’m missing the bluetooth driver. If any of guys find it, I would appreciate you post a comment where others can get it. http://www.mediafire.com/?xdgdzjkmnil
What’s Missing in Windows Vista
September 27, 2008
If you are using Windows Vista than this tip will be great for you. This will add a cool feature that should have been built into Vista. A volume indicator bar. There are 2 pieces to install this. The first is to install the DotNetFX Version 3.5 from microsoft. I put the link below. The second is the volume bar indicator program. The website where you can download it is also located below. I want to mention that the software is free and you can make a donation to the software writer from their website.
If you are using Windows XP and you would like to be able to have this, well unfortunately this will not work for you. But don’t worry I did not leave you behind. At the bottom of this post I also put a small utility that will work on windows XP so I have you covered.
Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Download for Vista: dotNetFx35setup.exe
Vista Volume Indicator Bar Download Website: http://gatehead.com/free_downloads/vista_volume_indicator.aspx
Windows XP Volume Bar Indicator
This one is easy I made it into an auto install file so all you have to do is download it, double click to install it and reboot your XP machine. Once it reboots use the Up and Down keys on your keyboard and you will see the volume level appear on the top left of the screen. I put an image below so you can see an example. Click on the image to enlarge.
