Yes, the hand seizures were too much for me.

exactly what I was thinking.

I'm confused. Is this about Win8 or the developer preview tablet running Win8? As far as I know, the Win8 OS will not be shipping with a fan.

@Whitson: I never thought about turning it OFF. Hmmm, let's see.

I can't wait for the Swiffer iHD!

Anybody else straining their eyes trying to read the enlarged LH graphic? I think the 8th exercise might help but my squinting ability must be deteriorating.

I've tried to like Springpad. Really I have. But every time I try it, it seems like it takes so many clicks to get simple things done. Click here to create a notebook, click here to add a note, what kind of note? maybe you'd like a list? Aaargh! Then again, I voted for Simplenote so maybe I just don't work in the…

I tried that for a couple years and it was a mess in our situation. We have uncovered cedar steps leading to our porch. After about a year the edges of the tape started coming up so that guests were tripping on the non-skip tape. When I tried to pull it off to replace it, the tape pulled out chunks of wood.

Sounds like the B&N Nook Color 2 will beat it to market by 2 months and the specs on the Amazon tablet are weaker than I thought they'd be (1 core, cloud storage, Amazon app store only, pre-2.2 Android). This may be B&N's window of opportunity to knock Amazon around a bit.

Must be a personal preference because I hate 10" tablets; they're too unwieldy and impossible to use without having a surface to rest them on. My opinion.

VOTE: Simplenote

Love'n my new phone wallpaper!

FYI: SophT is right but the process isn't straight forward. If you wanted to do the same...

I *never* use the toolbar to cut, copy, paste, move, copy, delete, rename, new folder, properties but look how much screen real estate is dedicated to buttons I will *never ever* use. The ribbon customization options have always been seriously lacking and thus make this a horrible implementation.

VOTE: IE (vs. FF), Adobe Reader (vs. PDF-XChange), iTunes (vs. WinAmp), Notepad (vs. gVim), Win Messenger (vs. Pidgin), cmd (vs. cygwin), Task Manager (vs. Process Explorer), Paint (vs. Paint.NET)

I love WinAmp because it's NOT bloated (I'm looking at you iTunes) but I agree about the updates. Every time I start it, it needs to update and other than Ninite, there is no way to automate it.

I tried the beta with the Atrix and ran into a few scanner-specific problems (which I don't remember, it's been long enough) but I'm glad to hear it's working clean now. I'll have to revisit.

We were on vacation for a week. When we came back one of our neighbors asked "how was your vacation?". We were surprised because we had done the lights-on-a-timer thing so we asked and they said they could tell because we didn't put out our garbage cans.
