Windows 7 has arrived...

I've been using a pre-release version and expect to upgrade to the new version soon.  Here are few of my favorite things....

Things I like about Windows 7

1.  Peek...  Hover over a task bar item and get a preview of each item even if they are stacked...

2.  Good multi monitor support

3.  Aero Window Manager

4.  Customizable Libraries  --I've always used a "Stuff" folder for all my "Stuff" = "Movies, MP3, Pictures."

5.  Fast boot time.

6.  Start button

7.  Explorer path

  . . . More to come . . .

Happy Halloween & Happy Birthday

I've always loved Halloween. I liked the parties growing up. It was usually a combination party. I remember the basement decorated all up, the bobbing for apples, and the scary stories. "I'm the ghost of Able Mable. Put you money on the table" "Rap, Rap, Rap." The Chocolate cake with chocolate icing and a black cat drawn on it. Playing football(who knew). Raking leaves(even more so). Scary songs. Carving jack-o-lanterns. The candy. Hope everyone has a great holiday.

Try Chrome

Just tried a new web browser, Chrome.  Built by the minds who know the web oh so well at Google.  I really like the interface and so far has been sturdy as I could hope.  There are obvious issues with living in an I.E. world, but none that matter.  Yes, I was a big proponent of Firefox, but I like this one better. Why?  Not for sure.  Not just because it's new because I ran as fast as I could away from Apples browser.  I'll keep you uptodate and tell what I find.
