Sci-Tek Gallery 3D Screensaver - Do you want to
impress (or depress) your friends with your digital photos? Present
your most important digitally-captured moments (embarrassing and
otherwise), people (embarrassing and otherwise), and places (like
Nevada, Scotland, or Graceland) in a Sci-Tek 3D virtual gallery! Every
time you stop working on the computer because you're a slacker and
your boss has gone on vacation for a week and you can probably get
away with it (unless the office snitch catches you, in which case
you're probably going to be getting fired sooner or later, anyway), a
3D virtual gallery will fill your screen and present your digital
photos. Maybe they can be blackmail snapshots of the office snitch in
a compromising situation with the copy machine repairman at last
year's office holiday gathering. You do what you think is right! [Download

While most of us were busy predicting insecure Web browsers would
be the downfall of the Internet, the folks at Mozilla were slowly

Firefox has been downloaded over 13 million times since November with
the full intention of taking 10% of the browser market before the end
of 2005.... [Continued]

Man, what a crazy holiday. With Christmas unloading a bundle of
people needing help with their new devices that Santa so thoughtfully
brought them for the holiday, it turned into a real three-ring circus
for me. Still, I have a lot to ponder about from this past year. I
have been one of the fortunate ones although I have finally begun to
come to an important decision. As much as PC repair has given to...

Welcome to Just Ask Matt! - The IT industry?s answer to the help
column, only slightly more medicated. Today's Just Ask Matt is dug out
from Chris Pirillo's Weblog. While it is addressed to the Web
community at large, I thought it might be worthwhile to share my
thoughts in addition to sharing any responses that I get from you
folks as well. Chris writes: As usual, I left the computer running
last night when... [Continued]

Whether we like it or not, some people just prefer Internet
Explorer. Yes, I realize that I rip on it more often than not. I would
like to come clean by saying that my main reason for going off on that
browser is mostly stemmed at the fact that it is such a target for
spyware. With that being cleared up, let's move on to the meat of this
article, shall we?... [Continued]
