Uniblue recently released Version 3 of SpeedUpMyPC and I think it's super! So many features and so easy to use ... a really good way to keep your computer running at peak performance. I've reviewed it at my website, here: SpeedUpMyPC Review

How I spent my Saturday afternoon.... I have been saving all the really nice emails I get from folks when my website helps them with a problem. Generally, once I've collected a few, I add them to my Testimonials page, but yesterday I noticed I hadn't updated this page since June of 2006! So, I spent the whole day today updating it ... man, people are so damn nice!! Testimonials from my site

Background Processes Uniblue's Process Library has updated their free process scanner and I think it works really well ... and yes, it's totally FREE ... not something you click then have to pay for.

One of my biggest dilemmas recently has been whether I want to pay my domain host so I can access their SharePoint server from my website and therefore be able to see how it works with Office 2007. Since SharePoint is such a big part of how Office 2007 works, I've been hesitant to write ebooks about it or add it to my online class curriculum, because I don't feel I can teach it correctly unless

You all remember my buddy, Vic Ferri, who wrote all those great articles for my ezine? Well, his real love has always been music and he's got an amazing collection. Check this out! http://www.angelfire.com/music6/vic/ And, notice the link at the top! He can convert your old vinyl albums (or any other music you want) into MP3s and CDs!

Just in case you are receiving files from people using Office 2007 and haven't heard about this yet ... you can download Microsoft's compatibility pack so you can open these 2007 files in earlier versions of Office.

Windows I have Windows Vista installed on my new laptop, but I really haven't had the time to write any tutorials for my website about it, but I am including more and more links to good Windows Vista tutorial sites on my Windows page, so you should check back often to see what I've added. Also, if you know of any really good sites that teach or troubleshoot Windows Vista, please visit my website

My laptop died and I decided it was time to get a new one, rather than have it repaired ... so, I figured what the heck, I'll get one with Vista installed ... so, I got Vista Ultimate. Ultimate what, I'm not sure. I just don't see why anyone would spend money to get Vista instead of XP .... typical of Microsoft, both Vista and Office 2007 don't really offer much new, but everything has been

Well, my laptop bit the dust so, rather than spend the money to repair it at this point, I decided to buy a new one. For many reasons, but mostly becuz I've been wanting to try Windows Vista and everyone I talk to tells me that upgrading to Vista is a nightmare, but getting Vista on a new machine is pretty painless, so that's what I did. The new laptop is due to arrive in about two weeks, so

I can't believe it. I was on the original beta testing team for Office 2007 .... plus I write ebook tutorials on Office and support Microsoft in many ways .... then they invite me to the official "launch" and, becuz of my mom, I can't go .... I was supposed to get a free copy of Office 2007 there .... so, even though I've done all I've done, I still had to go buy my copy of Office 2007, just

Well, we had a WONDERFUL time on our cruise. Mom was actually able to get into a routine and had a lot of fun (especially in the casino LOL). She ate really well (and so did I *grrr*) .... so we both gained weight (good for her and sucks for me). Now, we are both trying to adjust to being home ... mom's a little confused ... Yesterday I saw her sitting on the end of her bed and I asked her "

Just wanted to let you all know that I'm heading off on a Caribbean cruise this week .... I'm taking my mom, for her 90th birthday. For the first time ever, I am shutting down all orders and communication on my website. If you should order something from me, the order will not be processed by me until I return on April 2nd. I need to take this time .... for me and my mom. Hope you understand.

My brother-in-law was taking the day off tomorrow so I could take my mom there for the day ....

If anyone is interested, Microsoft has a downloadable version of Office 2007 available. It's a free trial and it expires two months after you install it. A great way to see if you like it or not: http://www.microsoft.com/office/greattips/trial/default.mspx

I'm telling you, it's ALWAYS something! A few weeks ago, my mom had a stroke and I made the big decision to quit my job and become her fulltime caregiver. I had no problem making this decision ... it's the least I can do for my 89-year-old mom who has devoted most of her adult life to her kids. So, I figured I'd take advantage of this and spend a lot more time working on my website when mom
