  • A message to all who view this blog:

    I have been looking at viewing stats for the entries I make, and can see that the graph looks similar to the side elevation of a mountain range. Some topics are way more popular than others, but I am not running a popularity contest here.

    My main aim is appeal to a wide experience/knowledge base. I cannot, therefore, apologise if each or any of the entries do not appeal to you.

    If you have an issue, complaint, or would just like to make a general comment, please feel free to contact me.

    • Browser Ballots

      The EU Commission appears to have coerced Microsoft into including a ‘browser ballot’ in the upcoming release of Windows 7E. Why do EU residents get to have all of the fun? Time for some fun of my own.. The ballot: Firefox – the top page hit will always...

    • PerfectSpeed.

      To be perfectly honest, I am not generally a fan of any utility which claims to increase or maintain the speed of a computer. There have been a few over time, some free to use, others not, and I have never been able to tell if any of them performed as...

    • August 6

      Some of us are going to be busy come the day. Apparently, the English versions of Windows 7 RTM will appear on MSDN and TechNet servers. Just like November 17 2006, we will all be pressing F5 to refresh the download pages, eager to get the final version...

    • Monitor Aspect Ratios unraveled..

      Sometimes, the native resolution of a newly purchased monitor can make it hard to read for those who do not have 20:20 vision. And then there are those who like to see more on their monitors and have good enough eyesight to cope. I have to use reading...

    • It’s simple..

      This morning, I read a post in a newsgroup where a computer user had endeavored to use the Vista backup facility. The backup software selected the D drive, but the computer user did not realize that the D drive was the recovery partition. The backup reported...

    • Waiting for 7?

      I know that RC is good until July 2010, but do I feel like setting up an RC with all that I run just to do it again at some point in the not so distant future? I would have to install Office 2007 Ultimate which is already installed in Vista 64 SP2 and...

    • Google Chrome OS?

      Hmmmmmmm.. based on Open Source technology? Sounds to me like another “Debian” job. Just what we need, eh. It will be first seen on netbooks, a type of portable computer which saw massive growth initially, but which will wane as users find out that “underpowered...
