Well, you know, go right ahead, but . . . there is absolutely nothing here that is remotely useful enough to start mucking with my system or adding clutter-apps that jam up the system tray or startup folder etc. These kinds of little utilities eventually can become the death of Windows, and tend to lead to all kinds…

This review is exactly what it needs to be and really cuts to the quick of whether or not this tool is for you. I have a rather large lawn that's now about 40% crabgrass and so I'm thinking it's not for me. There's a decent chemical solution that kills the crabgrass and not the lawn, I'll probably stick with that.…

I was just in the act of buying a USB hard drive to plug into my existing WiFi router. It's about $120 for 2TB. Then I saw this with much interest. And I went ahead and bought the 2TB USB drive.

Umm. First of all, the user has to 'connect' his other accounts to Google in order for any of this sharing to happen. I would assume that by authorizing Google to connect to your Facebook or Twitter or whatever other account, you might get the inkling that Google would have some idea what's in those other accounts.…

Obviously, having a lot less bezel would mean the device could be smaller. That would be great. It would also mean you'd have to hold the thing very carefully all the time to avoid your 'holding' fingers from operating the touch screen. Than would be not great.

Given that a normal curtain has almost zero efficacy at blocking out sounds, and this one is five times better . . . well, I'm just guessing I'll probably still not be able to sleep through the weed blower or the trash truck rolling by.

They need to stop making them? Just because you personally don't want one and may never want one?

This is an interesting concept, but it's quite abstract, so much so that it just comes off as yet more self-improvement fluff. How about some concrete examples of how this theory could be applied. Like say someone (like the author mentioned) is very curious. That's a very vague general quality. Applying that…

Another 'iOS is still ahead in this statistic' story. And this statistic is only for the U.S. which the post doesn't mention. At 350,000 Android activations a day - and the curve is steeply upwards - it seems this measurement too will soon enough succumb to the Android army.

Yes. I love a good wine, but there is a ton of good wine these days available for cheap. I seldom pay more than $6-8. You have to try what's available and see what you like, but that's a cheap proposition and fun as well. True, once in a while I get to taste a good expensive wine and it's nice. But. You can't…

You will pry the icemaker from my cold dead hands. It ranks up there with the wheel and beer on my list of best inventions ever. I bought a refrigerator many years ago, and it didn't have one. It's a common brand and a few years later I found the plug-in icemaker for it on line. Works fantastically.

A lot of people are discounting this because 9 scale quakes or anything near that don't happen in many of these areas. But remember the earthquake and tsunami are indirect causes - Fukushima basically suffered a double electrical failure, of primary and backup electricity, that caused the cooling systems to stop.…

Yes, absolutely you can get a nice photo from a 3MP sensor. I notice you don't claim that you can get an awesome shot from a 0.7 MP sensor. You can't.

Sure, you can use some shortcuts, if you know about them. The problem is it's not easy to find these little shortcuts at all, intentionally so, and you have to go there often enough to learn these tricks. Which you're probably not gonna do if you get turned off by the store in the first place. But the greater point is…

This is true. I use Dvorak predominantly, for about 5 years now, and I'm extremely fast on it. But it's kind of a pain. Any time I use another computer or certain keyboard shortcut oriented computers it can be a bit difficult.

This won't work for me. I have basically the same thing, an 'in' drawer sitting right on top of my desk. It's clear plastic so I can still see the papers inside. But it doesn't work, once something's in there it's forgotten. (At this point I just use it as a drawer full of oft used reference papers like account…

This is just the most perfect example of statistical think gone awry. Have they done a study as to how many people experience the rat-in-a-maze idiocy and vow to never go back, and how many lost sales they have as a result? Probably not, because that's a much harder study to undertake. I go to Ikea about once every…

I have been a professional photographer so, yeah, I'm aware that megapixel count is not the be all end all of image quality. But to say it has little to nothing to do with IQ is ridiculous. You can get wonderful shots from a 4MP camera, and today's 12 to 18MP consumer cams can certainly be said to have gone too far to…

A big screen does not have to mean a big phone. The phone screen should be very very nearly as big as the phone itself. The wasted screen real estate on the iPhone 4, for instance - they could have easily fit a 4" or even a 4.3" screen on that phone by making it all screen and no bezel.

This post is just waaayyaayy too long, and in fact I have not read the whole thing. There's a lot of important information in it though, but most people are not going to read it who really ought to.
