Get A Windows Run Box Even if Run & Task Manager are Disabled (Download Squad)

Model jet gets all Top Gun (Engadget)

Now, add in a 150ft rc range whilst flying 280 mph 20 ft off the ground.. then it's a little more than stressful.

That sucker would pass that range within 0.3 seconds.

Nah, jk.. I wonder what the range would be. Quite and interesting "toy" nevertheless.

The range is limited to your vision. If you can see it, it's still in range. And just so you know, my $35 digital receiver alone has a listening range of 1000 feet, not taking into effect the braodcasting range of the transmitter.

Also the e-turbine mentioned earlier is not a turbine, it's a ducted fan. Not even close to the same thing.

And forget rcuniverse, rcgroups.com is where it's at.

How to ditch the desktop in Windows (Download Squad)

Apr 20th 2006 3:09PM This article is about half of what you should do to get your desktop clean AND organized. The floating toolbar he docked to the top of the screen can be configured With or without titles, large or small icons, AUTOHIDE, etc. I have one toolbar hidden on the left side of my screen that holds all my graphicss apps. The right side of my screen has a hidden system apps tray. And the top of my screen has a hidden desktop tray.

Add "shading capabilities" to your windows, and mouse gestures to your operating system, THEN you are now organized and more efficient.IMHO

The only thing I use the desktop for is "virtual postit" notes.

Here are some screenshots of my current desktop at work:
