@kekebibo: "WIND" are trying to get the Nexus One to Canadalia. :)

@QADude: Well, XP was also a steaming turd when it released.

@PopandLocke: 1.2TB! Wow. I thought I had a lot of music with 12,000 tracks - totally 78.5GB.

@nachobel: Promoted just for that last line, oh how I laughed.

@fenster: Yeah, the options there from Windows 2k upwards.

@bayXSonic: Yeah, I don't see a huge use for a whitelist. Perhaps for kids user accounts, if you only want them to play [thisgame] - but then, if that's so, why hide the settings in Group Policy.

@iMiiTH: Bootcamp. Students use it too. Well, computer science students.

@bill cant fart: Very legal. The [ei.cfg] trick is well known by a lot of Windows enthusiasts, such as myself.

Here I am on 1mbit internet (max my shitty line can handle). Oh, did I mention I can do all of that?

Why does Autoruns have the msconfig screenshot :/

Ah interesting. I was wondering how it would work without Windows' Debugging Tools - however it does utilise them. WinDbg provides more information, however this provides the necessary information. I think I will be using this in the future.

@penguiniator: Windows 7 is stable; the drivers from hardware manufacturers and/or the hardware itself however tend to be the cause of instability problems - not the OS itself.

@Greyghost: Skating through windows and preparing supper at the same time? You sir are a multi-tasking king.

Sir Lifehacker,

Come on... I read about the BBC doing this months ago.

I went on to Google yesterday to search something, but I forgot what it was I was to search.

I can't remember the original, nor exact details of this theory, however I do think it related to quantum mechanics (but I'm no physics genius).
