How to add XOOM to internal Wifi with TLS

On Mac using keychain

** change extension to .crt

* Copy to VMWare partition I had with Win 7
* use usb cable to copy to XOOM root directory from VMWare partition
* enable password protect on security panel
* import from usb

How to fix Motorola XOOM Marketplace purchase error

Upon using my XOOM in the marketplace any apps for purchase kept failing. I think it was due to us recently switching credit cards. The only way I was able to fix this was:

- on a real computer going to google checkout and removing the old credit card and added in the new one
- then going to android marketplace on my desktop and making a purchase
- after app was installed on the XOOM, subsequent purchases made from the XOOM itself worked just fine.

Using MS Project for meeting agendas, offsites

You can use MS Project for meeting agenda or offsite planning. Two key things need to happen to make this work:
1) Change start/finish to also show times
- Tools->Options->View tab, Date Format (choose the first one)

2) Change working time to get rid of the lunch hour since that'll mess up planning:
- Tools->Change Working Time...
- Click Work Weeks tab
- Click on Default and hit the Details button
- Select the days that you care about and change the work time accordingly.
