Maplin N96GY

After almost 5 years service my Maplin N96FY had decided the wind would only blow from the West, a quick check showed the bearing had tightened up and although the wind vane would turn clockwise it would go back.

Re: User for Cumulus on WHS

I also run Cumulus on WHS 2011 under the administrator account and have never had any problems. As long as you keep the computer locked, don't disable the firewall and have anti-virus installed then any risks should be minimal in a home environment.

Re: What screen resolution does your Cumulus PC use?

Hi another new user here, as I run Cumulus on my windows home server I have an old 15" flat screen monitor attached which runs at 1024 X 768 and the interface sits nicely on that almost filling the screen.
