Not nearly as simplistic as the Mac’s startup chime, each generation of Windows’ operating system had its own unique startup and shutdown sound. They’re all in one video shown below with the exception of Windows 7. You could have some fun with your IT guy over the phone.

There was some recent hubbub about a security issue with WordPress wherein some hacker could hijack the Admin’s login and change it somehow. WP issued a security update and we incorporated it here sometime about Wednesday. We are all safe. Or so we think. SPT is now up to WP version 2.8.4.
There’s a new feature [...]

A few changes under the hood. For one, I’m weaning myself off of the Yojimbo organizer and on to a similar app called Evernote. My main beef with Yojimbo was that I couldn’t sync my stuff from the house computer to the garage laptop. With Evernote, my stuff is stored in the cloud (on a [...]

Great Windows trick
August 11th, 2008 · Comments Off · Windows, how-to, humor
Practical jokes are best when they’re nonviolent and nondestructive. Here’s an interesting prank to pull on your coworkers who are running Windows XP. Simply press Control + Alt and one of the arrow keys. It should flip the screen. Press the opposite arrow key to change it back. Probably won’t work with Vista.

Ten worst uses of Windows
July 31st, 2008 · Comments Off · Windows, bizarre, humor, sad, tech
You all know my feelings concerning Windows, in any iteration. Windows is the world’s most used operating system running on about 90% of all computers.

I don’t hate the guy. I kind of admire him, [...]
