Good one! But you did forget all the Service Packs for XP, why don't you make another list, eh?

A Closer Look at Windows 7's Taskbar

Posted 11/26/2008 at 09:12:09pm

I recently did several Google searches to skin my Windows XP PC to look much like Windows 7. I got ahold of the taskbar with:

 1- Windows XP SP2
 2- A UXTheme Patcher (To allow third party themes)
 3- A Windows 7 Theme (Self Explantory)
 4- ViOrb (Optional; Only if your start button doesn't compare to Win 7)
 5- Transbar (Makes the taskbar transparent)
 6- A registry hack (To make only the icons show)
 7- Windows 7 Icons (Yet again, self explanatory)
 8- Windows Sidebar (That's right... The same one in Vista)
 9- ViSplore  (Glass Browser for XP)
 10- Paitence and Time 

 *Note, if you're too lazy, get Windows 7 M3 Build 6801 off of The Pirate Bay or wait until December.

I have read in several articles that it will probably launch in 2009. I would also suggest to hold off on purchasing a PC until then, if you have plans.

A World Without Windows XP

The thing that really got me started on "re-skinning" my Pc was in the Spring 2007 Edition of Maximum PC to make your computer to look and behave like Vista. I have been doing ever since.

Windows XP to Vista

Windows XP to Windows 7

Windows XP to Mac OS X Tiger

So I buy that $3,000 Dell XPS M1730 (At least I think it is), and go to Italy and back... I would have a chance of getting it taken from me... what about the same for that can of beef stew?! Already having the goverment watching Internet movments is odd enough, but this? Great way to hunt for terroists, but I would like privacy, thank you.

AT&T Wireless Says it Will Ban P2P Users

Posted 08/03/2008 at 01:50:15pm

Come on! You people are with AT&T, just get away from them! P2P can be useful at times... You know you want to...

AT&T should not prevent its users from using P2P, what if someone needs an alternative to Mesh and Online Storage or Email. Come on AT&T, get out of the digital stone age.

The last time I checked...

The cheapest: Mac Mini was $599; iMac was $1199

An enviromental friendly should mean, less electricity consumption, most (or all) parts are recyclable.
Also I agree with TheMurph in the fact that we don't want a higher cost power bill in our mailbox.
