Maybe I'm missing something, but what "squarer gauge"?

Agreed. I don't really want to have ANOTHER program running, and I only really want CPU, Weather, and maybe news. Sidebar is more than enough for that.

Teal'c eating ice cream? It's in a few episodes and pretty funny.

Imagine this in the Walking Dead: Best base ever!

Is there a way to bounce spam from Outlook?

You also have to look at things like the bus speed, and the cache size and speed.

@digikrynary: Yup, I'd use it if it gave me a way to customize it and remove some of the options I don't need.

Learn stuff, keep asking when the internet will come back.

I want to register a domain, but GoDaddy says that for now, it's an expired domain that I can only buy from them.

What are some good TweetDeck tricks/tips?

Is there a good program that combines Google Reader and Twitter? Something like TweetDeck would be nice.

Yep. I have 5 email accounts feeding outlook; and would like to cut back on that. I do keep a clean inbox though, and archive all my emails automatically.

XBrackets Lite is great. I've been looking for something like TopMost, I'll have to try it now.

I feel a little TOO proud of this. And I DO feel a litte bad about goofing off. Aww well, it was a fun game :)

3 laptops, a netbook, 4 desktops, and assorted other devices that are close to, but not quite, a pc.

I haven't ventured to ask (I don't think that's up to me, but I know he has D's in 2 classes-and A's in 2 or 3 others). He has more classes than that, but I can't really tell you what. You do give it a good spin though, I'll try and help them focus on that positive!

Is there a good service for hiring them? His son complains that tutors at the university are bad, because they're just other students (but they are free... I think). I know when I went, there were posters all over the place advertising tutors, but a way to find a legitimate service would be good.

One of my friend's has a son in college. He's failing 1/2 of his classes and coming up on finals. From what I've heard, he really is trying, spending basically all day studying. I feel bad for both of them and wanted to know: what can they do? Perhaps a tutor?

I'm interested in how many people to an upgrade vs a fresh install. I usually upgrade for smaller releases. But for a major one like this, I tend to backup my bookmarks and addons, wipe my old install, get the new one (in this case, 4), and then put my bookmarks back. It gives me a chance to clean out my bookmarks,…

@timgray: Really? I have to admit I don't think I've ever used Yahoo maps. Bing has a good implementation (and they advertised it as well).
