Agreed. I like the way Chrome keeps your original window open when you enter private browsing mode. There was an extension for FF36 that did that via some profile switcharoo wizardry but it was never ported to FF4+.

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.
