  1. Review - AMD Catalyst Drivers for Windows

    7.10 (Oct 12, 2007)

    They are still selling cards? Who needs these drivers when all the cards since Catalyst 5.x have been second fiddle to Nvidia. ATI is really the dregs of bad drivers.

  2. Review - Linux Kernel

    2.6.23-rc6 (Sep 12, 2007)

    The Linux Kernel reminds me of Dr. Ron Paul, free and unencumbered.

  3. Review - µTorrent for Windows

    1.7.3 Build 4470 (Sep 6, 2007)

    Emergency, switch to Azureus / Vuze. Bit torrent recently went on a Jihad to close up the bittorrent source code and the protocol. They bought micro-u-torrent.

    Since Ashwin, Bram and the BitTorrent company are now closed source collaborators with the RIAA/MPAA, you are no longer safe using products coming from them. They also want to watch the media be distributed and the reason for closing the source was the ability for the client to talk back to Bittorrent, CALLING HOME.

  4. Review - CPU-Z

    1.41 (Sep 4, 2007)

    Needs a 4 and everyone's support as H. Oda's WCPUID is not longer being updated.

    I greatly appreciate these efforts and find the program useful.

    Also checkout SIW (System Information for Windows).

  5. Review - WinSCP

    4.0.4 (Sep 4, 2007)

    Been using 4.x for a few days. This program is absolutely awesome, and its free.

  6. Comment - Internet Explorer 10 Platform Preview 2 is to die for

    4.0.4 (Jun 30, 2011 - 11:29 AM)

    IE9 was terrible. I use a mix of chrome, opera and firefox. IE is rubbish.

  7. Comment - Thunderbird 5 is live -- grab it now!

    4.0.4 (Jun 30, 2011 - 11:27 AM)

    Heck yes. You are so right. They just chrome-ify everything but the actually take features out. Horrible.

  8. Comment - Thunderbird 5 is live -- grab it now!

    4.0.4 (Jun 30, 2011 - 11:26 AM)

    Mozilla and Thunderbird wills stay on version 3.x probably FOREVER. Mozilla jumped the shark. unreliable. breaking plugins. bloated. memory hod. and now they are removing all the features.

    MOZILLA = FINISHED. Its now a bad clone of Chrome.

  9. Comment - You want to know how Nokias are better than iPhones?

    4.0.4 (Jun 30, 2011 - 11:24 AM)

    Android or iOS. Nokia, WebOS, Blackberry - all finished, toast , kaput, done. FINISHED. Windows mobile may have a shot but seriously, its an Android / iOS world. Too late to go back now.

  10. Comment - Mac OS X 10.6.8 is out, and you need it for Lion

    4.0.4 (Jun 26, 2011 - 2:50 AM)

    I run a OS X wiki on 10.6, mac server is a good idea, and has a lot of potential, but the filesystem sucks (should have taken ZFS) and the thing isnt even close to production ready.
