@justinpe: If only Starbucks had been smart enough to realize this they would have a lot of customers now...wait what?

Not to mention laptop stands go for as low as $7-8 if you watch Fry's ads etc.

On a fresh install or creating a new profile this saves lots of time. It really is annoying and interrupts your work flow.

avg av, sygate fw, spybot w/ teatimer. All free. I have total control over my downloads and communications. They don't hog resources either.

@phoenix re huge file size in handbrake - by default it rips to an uncompressed format that is gigantic. You need to go to video>compression and choose a compressed format. If you want it smaller after that, you can compress it more using VirtualDub.

No one editor does it all. NoteTab Light has the best search/replace I think, but no color/syntax. Notepad++ is the best otherwise...but I don't use either much any more. Learn vim people! :)

My Merax neoprene sleve cost $7 shipped. Couldn't you get more than that selling your used wetsuit on Craigslist or something?

Well, I've used this method for a while and it works well. However, I notice that you cannot drag a link from a web page to the bookmark bar any more—you have to follow the link and drag it from the address bar down. (I still want that show/hide button...please?)

I like how the Web Developer Toolbar has a button that you can click to bring it up/down. Is this possible for the bookmarks toolbar?

Since registering for the DNC list, I receive few if any marketing calls but still LOTS of survey and political calls. How do we block those?

I'm really looking forward to this feature. I use Google desktop with Outlook tasks and it's indispensable. However, something in this interface causes my PC to boot VERY slowly. It's one of the only things tying me to M$ Office. Google calendar blows the pants off Outlook's calendars and I can't wait for tasks to…

Mine has a keyring clip but I don't have it attached to my keys unless it's plugged in at a public terminal. That way I may leave without it but I can't drive home and must go back for it.

Lies!
