It would not surprise me if it does that because the program sees McAfee as an unnecessary service. Since MS has built in virus protection.

I have a HTPC with Windows 8.1. I use the Netflix modern app. Modern UI is actually great for a HTPC.

I drive a 2013 Subaru Crosstrek which is rated 33 mpg hwy. My real life mileage is probably closer to 30-31, which is sufficient for me considering the AWD.

Thanks for the reply. The desktop itself would not use the VPN, just my mobile devices. Would those modifications still be required?

I have a pretty decent desktop (Haswell Xeon quad core with HT, 16 gigs ram). Could I use Amahi in a virtual machine to be my VPN for my windows tablet and phone? I work for the state government which blocks gmail, and this would make checking this so much easier. I could also downgrade my data plan and rely more on…

I introduced my wife to Zelda, shes been slow to catch on, but she's getting there. My wife was already a gamer, but her favorite (oddly enough) were the Donkey Kong games...just cant get my head around it...

I don't think it was said to be offensive, but more as "I had no idea".

I am an RDN and a school food service director in Kentucky. The RDN in me loves these lunches, and wished the kids that packed in my district would bring meals like this. I will probably distribute this throughout my district at the beginning of next year. The FSD in me sadly knows that my participation would be in…

Exactly! A lot of people forget this. Also, I am sure those eggs, bacon, and butter he was using were free of a lot of the preservatives and chemicals that plague our food today. Drinking whole milk occasionally is perfectly fine, but I still would not recommend it more than once a day (unless you need to gain…

This, or any other windows 8.1 tab. No third party apps required.

Microcenter has the new Dell Venue Pro 8 for 259.99 (in store pickup only). Which is $40 off the regular price. The tablet is a full windows 8 install with baytrail atom.

Emptying the cat box. Eww.

I like this article because it is realistic about the drawbacks of an Apple product, actually, any "new" product really. It is refreshing to read, especially with a sister site to this one praising it in all its glory. It just burns me up, how much WP8, and WinRT, and Win 8 (yes, MS fanboi here) gets smashed by…

The Start screen is actually great for a HTPC UI. It is easy to navigate with the wireless keyboard/track pad I use. Much easier to read icons and navigate than the standard desktop mode. Also, it looks kick ass on my wall mounted TV.

A ketogenic diet will essentially turn your blood into an acid over time, which is just as bad for the kidneys as hyperglycemia.

I also prefer 10 inches due to using it for real work such as note taking, emailing, and other office apps. 8 inch keyboards are just too cramped.

I would take a look at the new Win 8.1 tabs from Dell and Toshiba. You can get them in an 8 inch form factor, and it is a full blown PC, not a tablet.

Gulf Shores, AL. I know it is considered the "redneck Riviera", but it isn't nearly as commercialized as most of the Florida coastal cities. Great local food, white sands, and its only a 10 hr. drive from Lexington, KY which is where I live.

I have no qualms with that. I would love to see a similar article with Windows Phone. I think MS is trying to give customers the best of both worlds. I don't think they offer the best at either world, but do have a good compromises.

From my personal use, WP works well for me. Phone never crashes, syncs perfect over MS…

Not sure your body size or gender, so I am going to assume you are the average male between 20-40 y/o. Your calorie demand is probably around 2200 calories daily depending on your activity level. The average run of the mill oatmeal is about 150 calories per serving. It is not enough to be a complete breakfast. Throw…
