It is called FixMyPC.wordpress.com . It is a blog that i write. When i have a problem with a computer and find a fix for it, i post the solution on the site to hopefully help others that may be having the same problem as i did. It's just meant to help others out. You should check it out and see what you think for yourself.

Researchers at MIT and Cambridge University have unveiled a design for a "silent aircraft" that would radically reduce the noise emanating from airports. As it turns out, the design from the universities' Silent Aircraft Initiative is fuel-efficient as well. SAI collaborators say the plane, designed to carry 215 passengers, is expected to offer a 25 percent reduction in passenger-miles per gallon when compared with the operating efficiency of current aircraft (and, at 124 passenger-mpg, just slightly better than the 120 passenger-mpg of a Toyota Prius carrying two riders).

The most prolific car manufacturer on the planet resides in a Rice University laboratory in Houston, where chemist James Tour and his colleagues have built one trillion trillion nanoscopic cars. The tiny four-wheeled vehicles are only four billionths of a meter wide—25,000 of them parked side by side would be about as thick as a piece of paper. Not just another nano-gimmick, Tour’s cars could one day carve tiny channels in silicon, creating more-powerful computer chips.
Although other groups have made nanocars that slip or slide across a surface, Tour’s team is the first to construct ones with actual rolling wheels. To get the cars moving, scientists either heat an atomically smooth gold roadway (the temperature difference incites the wheels to spin) or use a scanning tunneling microscope to emit a beam of electrons that drags the car along by static electricity. In the future, Tour hopes to install an active propulsion system. “What we want to do now is put an internal motor in there and drive the thing,” he says.
Several different motors are in the works, including a photon-powered version [see illustration below]. Tour is also fine-tuning new 2006 models, including a nanotruck capable of transporting molecules, such as oxygen. Before long, he says, “we’ll have a little Daytona 500.”

Revolutionizing new product for showing products and films. Cheoptics360 XL display revolving video images that can be viewed 360° under all ambient light conditions.
The unit is made for indoor or outdoor use in sizes from 1,5m – 30m, capable of visualising cars and humans in scale 1:1.
The shape and form of Cheoptics360 XL can be customized to integrate with any branding and environment. The unit can be suspended from buildings and structures or used free standing.
In the waiting of the release of Microsoft's Zune MP3 player, Microsoft released a black Windows XP theme that looks like Vista's for the Zune. I really like the orange start menu they put in there as well. What makes it really sweet is it is a Microsoft made theme, meaning it will work well with all your programs being run.
What do you think of the new theme?

Check out this video from IGN that shows off the features of the Nintendo Wii console! November 19 is going to be a good day!
Why should Firefox be alone with browser improvements? Internet Explorer 7 has them now too! Check out Microsoft's official Internet Explorer 7 add-on page, and check it out for yourself. I wont be one to ridicule a new idea, but i think there is still some room for improvement for additional add-ons to be developed for IE7.
