Following on from my previous post re To do lists, Calendars etc.. The problem with feature-rich‘home user’ applications like Noto where you have to pay is this. You get used to using them, store a great deal of information in them, and then wake up one day to find that the software developer has lost […]
Personally, I like ‘clean’ and simplicity, and free is good if I can get it, Never assume that best is the most expensive, because best is very subjective. Always try free stuff first. You may find that it suits your purposes to a tee. My choice.. Back in 1992, I picked up on a small […]
Just a quickie. It appears that Diskeeper 2011 doesn’t trash restore points on my computer as the 2010 version was doing. Also, it is even less noticeable in operation that 2010 was. Way to go, Diskeeper. Well done.. Diskeeper 2011 is now available to all, btw.. https://www.diskeeper.com/

.. is still free and now works with Windows 7 as well as Vista. This is what it looks like.. If you like tweaking, you have just got to go for this, but remember to tweak bits one at a time. Make too many changes and you may just forget what you have done. […]
More how on earth do you get there? I’ll give you the link because my typing is slow. One hundred ways to get there, wherever ‘there’ might be.. http://distrowatch.com/ and watch out because some of them are cul-de-sacs and others have yet to be properly surfaced. Ubuntu is top of the list, but Linux purists […]
If Ubuntu Linux was as good as they say it is, there would be one article written purely about Ubuntu, but there never is. Always a reference to to Microsoft Windows. This is the latest. Oh my God! There are security holes in Ubuntu 10.04! The sky is falling! Bill Gates is the maker of […]
If MS Answers mk1 was broken, that term has been taken to new levels by MS Answers mk2. I have no idea what server setup Microsoft is using or did use, but one thing is for sure, something is not right. There are times when it is very fast, and the rest of the time […]
