Use keyboard shortcuts to launch applications
Of all the programs installed on your computer, you use maybe five regularly, right? Creating a keyboard shortcut is a great way to launch them fast.

1. Right-click an application's shortcut icon and then click Properties.
2. Click the Shortcut tab and locate the Shortcut key text box.
3. Type in a letter, number, or assign a function key (for letters and numbers, Windows adds Ctrl-Alt to your shortcut).

Technological Racism

I can remember a time when I was a Microsoft hater. I was programming for OS/2 which was far superior to Microsoft’s Windows 3.11.  Well, times have changed and OS/2 has gone the way of the dodo. I have drunk of the cool-aid and repented my ways…  All hail, Microsoft…….

 Anyway read this blog over at Oppositionally Defiant.

Microsoft Ends Windows 98 Support

 

Microsoft wanted to end support for Window 98 back in 2003, but extended it due to complains from its 70 million person user base.

Well, today, they get thier wish. Microsoft has officially ended all paid support for Windows 98, Windows 98 SE, and Windows Me.

In addition to an end to paid support, they also will no longer offer security updates.

Now, that said, I haven’t used Windows 98 or any of its cousins since the release of Windows 2000 and if my luck hold out, never will.
