  1. Review - VirtualBox

    4.2.0-79756 Beta 1 (Aug 3, 2012)

    This builds adds (among other things):

    "Added experimental support for Drag'n'drop from the host to Linux guests."

    I do look forward from when I can drag and drop from host to guest, and guest to host on Windows OSes.

  2. Review - AnyDVD HD

    6.8.8.10 Beta (Dec 8, 2011)

    Functions perfectly with regular consistent updates that keep this software at the top of it's class. A class that has no legitimate competitors, actually. I was fortunate enough to pay around $70 for the lifetime license, but would gladly pay the $129 it would cost me now. You get what you pay for.

  3. Review - Microsoft Windows XP Mode

    1.2.7235.0 RC (Aug 4, 2009)

    Perfect, lets me connect to work on the 32-bit only Cisco VPN client from my 64-bit Windows 7 laptop.

  4. Review - Microsoft Security Essentials (32-bit)

    1.0.1407.00 Beta (Jun 23, 2009)

    4% CPU usage during full scan. Nice and light weight, does a good job at catching sample virii that I had available.

  5. Review - AnyDVD HD

    6.5.6.2 Beta (Jun 23, 2009)

    Goodness, where's the 'Report Abuse' button when you need it?

  6. Comment - What was the first Apple Store like?

    6.5.6.2 Beta (May 15, 2011 - 8:17 PM)

    I went to the Apple store to buy a pack of screen covers for my iPod Touch. There were at least 100 people in the store, 40 of them crowded around the registers and Genius Bar. Ironically it seemed that no one was actually BUYING anything, but were so crowded around the Genius Bar no one could get to a register to actually ring up a PAYING customer.

    I kept going up to one of the 'vultures' as someone else described them, and asking "Can you ring me up?" Answer: "They'll help you at the register."

    So after waiting 10 minutes, I just threw the box to the nearest counter and walked out, never to return.

    Go figure, the covers were cheaper online with free shipping. Why do people go into Apple stores again?

  7. Comment - Who loves or loathes iPad?

    6.5.6.2 Beta (Mar 3, 2011 - 7:21 AM)

    Doesn't have video out? It most certainly does! I hook it up to the hotel TV when I travel and watch movies or television shows on it. Invaluable just for that, since of course there is never anything on live TV anymore, and that's if you can manage to even find your favorite channels on a hotel TV.

  8. Comment - Five security backdoors every small business should shut

    6.5.6.2 Beta (Feb 17, 2011 - 3:59 PM)

    Nothing turns the average honest employee into a l33t-wannabe hacker faster then denying them access to Facebook, IM, and their favorite smartphone apps.

  9. Comment - What if Apple's day 'you'll never forget' is really a day you'll never remember?

    6.5.6.2 Beta (Nov 16, 2010 - 5:33 AM)

    If all the hype is over the Beatles being added... so what?

    What's next? This kind of hype over Lady Gaga's new album?

  10. Comment - The battle over e-book prices hits authors and readers the worst

    6.5.6.2 Beta (Feb 1, 2010 - 9:01 PM)

    "The price will be set the price for each book individually" wtf? need a [sic] there if that's what the guy actually said.
