@TechTalk WRLR 98.3FM: That post is incredible. I'm still wigging out about the whole thing. What a nice guy. Did I mention how much I loved Stand By Me? It's the only movie I know of that was better than the book. Read more

@Dooga: I used to click on Show Desktop a lot, until I realized Win+D does the same thing! Takes some retraining, but does save some real estate. Read more

Like every download we feature here, I downloaded and installed TweakRAM on my own computer and had no reason to believe it contains malware. If someone can point me to specific evidence that this is indeed malware, I will update the post. Thanks. Read more

@Boter: That's the whole point. There's no need for "a little VBS knowledge." :) Read more

I did this in Amsterdam for the US to Holland adaptor. Worked like a charm. Read more

@Troy F.: I know stars are few and far between. But as more people follow one another, more people will get stars! A star isn't an absolute requirement. Read more

Hey all—I know this doesn't come close to qualifying as news, but it's an excerpt of the Lifehacker book (as noted in the post.) Also, as noted above, I tried to include information you DON'T find in the (very thorough) Boot Camp user guide. Read more
