You've got to give it to the XM-I guys. Barely three weeks after we reviewed the prototype, the Singapore-based team went back to the drawing board, made a few crucial tweaks, and will now roll out an improved version. The commercial launch may have been pushed forward from March ...

Meizu's M8 gets more UI tweaks for its music playerNow, we know the official story on the CeBIT Meizu shutdown was related to MP3 codec licensing, and not the M8's iPhone-like UI. Still, it does seem strangely fortuitous that more pictures of the phone's interface have just appeared that seem to showcase a move away from Apple's familiar look. The Chinese site CNMO has new shots of the device's music player, which now appears to incorporate song info, EQ display, lyrics, and volume / tracking controls all on one screen. The pictures also show a couple of different music browsing options, both in landscape and portrait mode. Is this a signal that the company is putting some distance between the M8 and the iPhone? Only time will tell.(Via Engadget.)

I hope that you like the minor tweaks that I have made to the blog. As you can see I have kept the same basic layout and design.I have tried to place similar things together in the sidebar on the left. I kept the Headline animator at the top and then tried to place all blog raters next. There is still one on there bottom of the page since the code for it has to remain where it is in order for it to work.I have moved the Bible Verse of the Day just above the Feedjit widget. Below Feedjit I have added the Live Traffic Feed. Below there I placed the Neighborhood from BlogCatalog. Below the Neighborhood is My BlogMap.

1. Turn off Windows Search Indexing Windows Vista search indexing is constantly reviewing files on your system to make their contents available for quick searching. This is handy, but can severely impact system performance. To disable constant indexing: * Click Start then Computer * Right Click the C: Drive * On General Tab, Uncheck Index this drive for faster searching * On the subsequent dialog box, Select Include subfolders and files2. Turn off Remote Differential Compression Remote Differential Compression measures the changes in files over a network to transfer them with minimal bandwidth rather than transferring an entire file that has previously been moved.

One thing users aren't aware of is all the unnecessary network protocols and components that you may have enabled and not using. Sometimes having these enabled may cause network problems and even degrade your connection. I've been through this with countless users that either have enabled too much or too little just for a basic broadband cable modem connection.If you are experiencing issues with your connection and believe its your PC's configuration, take a look at your network connections properties a little closer:Verify your connection properties- Open control panel Network Connections.- Identify the icon for the network connection your using for the cable modem/ISP, right-click it, and select Properties.The following components might be worth disabling:* File and Printer Sharing fo

STARTUP-----------Windows Prefetcher****************** [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ CurrentControlSet \ Control \ Session Manager \ Memory Management \ PrefetchParameters]Under this key there is a setting called EnablePrefetcher, the default setting of which is 3. Increasing this number to 5 gives the prefetcher system more system resources to prefetch application data for faster load times. Depending on the number of boot processes you run on your computer, you may get benefits from settings up to 9. However, I do not have any substantive research data on settings above 5 so I cannot verify the benefits of a higher setting. This setting also may effect the loading times of your most frequently launched applications. This setting will not take effect until after you reboot your

In Firefox 1.x - 2.x you might have noticed that after opening several tabs and browsing a while system memory starts to be eaten up a lot and performance start degrading a little.Here are some not so obvious tweaks to speeding up your internet browsing and improving performance.Enable PipeliningBy default, the pipelining option is turned off in Firefox. By enabling it you can send several requests to a Web server at a time, rather than sending them one by one. Type about:config into your address bar and hit Enter. In the Filter text box, at the top of the page, type network.http. A list of settings appears, as you can see in the nearby figure.

Market share for Internet Explorer is still up there at around the 45% mark (between IE7 and IE6 combined), against Firefox following very closely neck and neck. If you haven't converted to Firefox 2.x and are not planning to do so anytime soon, there are a few tweaks that you may want to consider doing immediately in IE 7 so that you are getting the most out of it. Lets look at some tips and tweaks that don't require you to install any free addons first.Disable Automatic Network Detection If you are connected directly to the internet and are not going through a proxy server then you should uncheck IE's "Automatically detect settings" option on the Tools > Internet Options > Connections > LAN Settings dialog window. Move the 'Menu Bar' to the top Click Start > Run, then type

Everyone now Firefox is a better open source browser than other, you can add extension to make this browser more optimal. Wait, Why we don't try to tweak it more? Firefox is the coolest browser right! Fetch only pages that you clickIn the default,Firefox will pre-download the pages behind the links it thinks you MIGHT click. I think this is just useless bandwidth usage. How you stop that in two simple steps? Type "about:config" into the address bar and hit return. Type "network.prefetch" in the filter field, It should be set to TRUE. Double click it, and it will turn to false.Create a user.js file.Creating a user.js file can really speed up your browsing. You'll need to create a text file named user.js in your profile folder (see this to find out where the profile folder is) and see this example user.js file that you can modify.

Although you should expect to wait for a few seconds for Windows XP to boot, if you have had it running for a while or just installed a fresh install and it seems to boot rather slowly. Its time for you to apply some old tricks once again making your PC roar to life again. There are several tweaks that help Windows XP get the bootup speed you want. This tutorial explores how to put these techniques to work.1. Change the boot device list order Most computers are set up so that when you first turn on your computer it will check to see if you want to boot from other drives besides your hard disk. It will automatically check the CD/DVD Drive for a bootable disk, or a floppy disk (which we dont really use as much if any), some may have it to check boot from LAN or USB Stick. If all you want is for your primary hard disk to boot up Windows, make it so in the BIOS first. The main benefit here is by placing your primary hard disk first as the startup device boot the system does not have

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Number Six: Add/Remove ProgramsThis is valid for Windows XP Home and Pro. Go to the "Add Remove Programs" and click the "Windows components." Here, take out all the crap you do not need. Such as "MSN EXPLORER" and such.After Removing the unused Windows components, ensure that you check back up on the services that you disabled. Some like to go back to Automatic after playing with the Windows components (namely COM+ and Help and Support).You may also adjust a file to "allow" you to remove other Windows components, such as MSN Messenger. Here is how:TAKE NOTE: You will need to enable "hidden file" viewing to see the inf files.IF YOU ARE SCARED, DO NOT MODIFY THE FILE... Also, you may experience a delay of around 30 seconds or more when loading up Outlook before you can do anything. Putting Messenger back will allow Outlook to function properly again. If you use MSN Explorer, Messenger will also be running in

If you’re annoyed by Internet Explorer’s incessant barking that you’ve lowered your security settings (like, if you’re a non-paranoid expert), launch “gpedit.msc” from either the Run command or Start Search field, navigate through Local Computer Policy / Computer Configuration / Administrative Templates / Windows Components / Internet Explorer. In the rightmost pane, double-click “Turn off the Security Settings Check feature” and set it to Enabled. If Internet Explorer’s Information Bar also annoys you, you can turn it off (again) in the Group Policy Object Editor (gpedit.msc) through Local Computer Policy / Computer Configuration / Administrative Templates / Windows Components / Internet Explorer / Security Features. In the rightmost pane, double-click “Internet Explorer Processes” and set it to Disabled. Hallelujah! I’ve just mentioned two tweaks that are buried inside the Group Policy Editor. Jim Allchin pointed out that there’s a Group Policy Settings Refe

Vista Registry Tweaks - Tips to Play With Windows Registry Author: Arvind The most important tool available for Vista registry tweaking is the Registry Editor (regedit.exe), which allows you to view and manually edit the contents of Windows Registry. The window of the Registry Editor is divided into two pans of which the left side contains a tree with keys that are represented as folders. The right side shows the values contained in currently selected specific key. There are several tweaks that you can perform using the Registry Editor. Among them, some of the important Vista registry tweaks are: Appearance tweaks To remove the annoying ToolTips that appears whenever you mouse over something: Open the Registry Editor by typing regedit in the Run option of the Start Menu. Select HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Microsoft > Windows > CurrentVersion > Explorer > Advanced. Set ShowInfoTip = dword:00000000 Exit from regedit and reboot your system To get rid of arrows pr

There are 3 tweaks you can make to change how XP uses memory. Open Regedit and Find HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlSession ManagerMemory Management Disable Paging Executive:XP pages data from RAM memory to the hard drive. We can stop this happening and keep more data in RAM, resulting in better performance. Users with a large amount of RAM (256MB+) should use this setting. The setting we change to disable the ’Paging Executive’, is DisablePagingExecutive. Changing the value of this key from 0 to 1 will de-activate memory paging. System Cache Boost:Changing the value of the key LargeSystemCache from 0 to 1 will tell XP to allocate all but 4MB of system memory to the file system cache, allowing the XP Kernel to run in memory. The 4MB of memory left is used for disk caching, if more is needed, XP allocates more. Generally, this tweak improves performance by a fair bit but can, in some intensive applications, degrade performance. As with the previous

Saints wide receiver Robert Meachem continues to struggle. He appeared to tweak his right knee while making a cut Thursday and hobbled through the rest of the practice. He needs to make something happen Friday to restore the confidence of the coaching staff. Right now, the first-round pick is no better than the team’s sixth receiver, and that’s only because Jamal Jones is out with a knee injury. Reported by Jeff Duncan, New Orleans Times-Picayune <<<Hotwire>>> Meachem is off to a rough start in his NFL career. He reported to mini-camp out of shape, was having issues with dropped passes in camp and then took a serious lick on the first pass thrown to him. He’s working hard and will improve, but I’m not expecting much fantasy production from his this season.

Lets face it ! Tweaking gives us the satisfaction...of having done something to beat the system ! There is that urge, esp amongst die-hard tweakers, to squeeze out the last drop of performance ! Frankly speaking, the best "tweak" is to throw RAM at it ! Its one BIG healthy dose of tonic to perk up your machine. There are some tweaks which can at best be considered to be of dubious value. Though most of them may not cause much harm, some of them, if applied indiscriminately may actually hurt performance. Some of them worked with older Windows versions, but are redundant & irrelevant now...

by Adam Pash When I made the switch to Ubuntu Linux on my desktop computer (that is, if you can call triple-booting Windows XP, Vista, and Ubuntu a "switch"), I was a little worried about finding the applications and tools that would make me as productive working in Ubuntu as I am working on Windows. After a little searching around the interweb, however, I've been more than impressed with the number of great, full-featured applications available for Linux, many of which outshine their Windows counterparts. And what's best - they're all totally free. Here are my top 10 favorite applications and tweaks that made replacing Windows with Ubuntu a breeze. Taking a page from Mark Pilgrim's essential software list, I've included the necessary command line code to install most of the applications below; if you don't like Terminal, you can use Ubuntu's very friendly Add/Remove software application interface (Applications -> Add/Remove...). Where I haven't included the apt-get line,

Enable Aero on SUPPORTED Cards, with no drivers! 1. Click on the start menu and type in devmgmt.msc and Enter to load it up. 2.

When it restarts, it should install a generic video driver so your screen will still work. 5. Go back into Device Manager, expand the Display Adapters

I just did some backtesting of the "Approaching 200 day + confirmation" filter. This time, based on Woodshedder's suggestions, I tested the 2 year period beginning 1/1/02 and changed the backtesting parameters from my usual 15 day maximum hold and 8% stop loss to a maximum hold of 5 days and a 2.5% stop loss.The results, for a mediocre time in the market, are quite nice:141 trades, 51% wins, 1.4 reward to risk, 60% ROI (compared to SPY ROI of -2.1%)My usual backtesting parameters (8% stop loss and 15 day maximum hold) yielded quite unimpressive results:141 trades, 60% wins, 1.0 reward to risk, -2% ROI (compared to SPY ROI of -2.1%)Woodshedder's suggested changes illustrate the importance of cutting off your losers quickly. I think this is especially true during weaker markets. It just isn't worth the brain damage of holding some of the stocks longer just to push up my winning percentage. And, for me personally, the 5 day maximum hold is closer to the way I want to actually trade the

Could the most longest awaited move in NFL history finally be on the verge of getting done? Well, let’s put it this way - at least the Dolphins and Chiefs are at least talking about the move to finally get quarterback Trent Green into a Fins uni and out of Big Red. The latest bit of talking between the two states that the Dolphins have modified their trade offer for Green. The Miami Herald reports Friday that the Dolphins are now willing to offer a conditional sixth-round pick that would become a fifth if Green meets certain conditions. The deal over the past few months was that Miami was only going to give up a 6th rounder for Green, a QB who they already have a new contract in place with and ready to go once the deal gets done. KC all along has wanted at least a fourth-round pick for their former starter under center. Jim Steiner, Green’s agent, was quoted in the Herald as stating “I think we will get a deal done, there have been a lot of conversations.” There

For those with a sharp eye, I've been playing around with some tweaks to the blog. You've probably noticed that I now have a "label cloud" thanks to the excellent tutorial provided by phydeaux3.

That means when you want to read about my food posts, it may take a while to load, so please be patient!
