Make a bootable USB installer for Windows XP, Vista, 7 with WinToFlash (Download Squad)

Oct 25th 2009 8:53PM Oops, this app would have been handy, I had to figure out how to do this on my own so it took a few minutes. It is really handy to have a flash drive with the Win 7 install on it; I used it on a couple of computers and just gave different serial numbers (which I of course had because I paid for my copies of Win 7).

Best Sci-Fi Movies of All Time (Moviefone Blog)

Dec 19th 2008 8:18AM Them certainly deserved to be up there. Great giant ants and James Arness too!

Too many of these films are famous. The topic is the best, not the most well-known. I have seen some fantastic sci-fi films that are not famous and were not on the list. One of the purposes of such a list is to give future viewing guidance. Since so many of these movies are famous, you flunk guidance.

How about Alphaville! What about On the Beach, isn't that Sci-fi?

Compal: 8.9-inch Dell laptop coming in June for less than $499 (Engadget)

Apr 10th 2008 2:17PM I had an Eee purchase in mind too.

I do all that streaming and stuff from Linux Mint (or Debian or Suse or Puppy).
And from Windows XP and I did when I tried Vista, which is too irritating and glitzy and demanding. The price of Linux is especially good, and I care about that.

But this Dell thing looks good. I like the touch screen on my Nokia N800, but I don't miss it on my other computers.
