If you have seriously played with Ubuntu lately, you might have seen the real fancy 3D desktop effect you can do. Here is a piece of software that does the same thing on Windows: DeskSpace And here is a free alternative:YODM. (0)
After a few hours of frustration trying to get the Dell Wireless 3300 Print Server to hop onto my wireless network, I finally figured out the problem. I was using WPA-PSK in AES mode on my wireless router. Apparently, this little gem (if you have a compatible printer) only likes TKIP. After I made this change it connected without a problem. This print server works very well, but you have to have a compatible printer. In fact, if you have one of the printers this was intended for, I would recommend using this to anything else. I know for a fact it works great on a Dell 1710 and a 962 (Photo All-in-One). (0)
My good friend BojanM showed me this very cool hack for Firefox that makes the vertical scrollbar always visible in Firefox. I find it annoying when I’m surfing pages and the page shifts left to right when it goes from extending beyond the bottom of the screen to fitting in the screen or the other way around. This little hack makes the vertical scroll bar always present at the right of screen. If the page extends beyond the bottom, then the scrollbar is activated, otherwise it’s not. Thanks BojanM! (2)
