moving files to usb flash drives would be easier with batch queuing shell utility
To transfer two sets of files from two respective physical drives to one usb flash drive unity unattended is possible but does not maximized efficient- and maximized use of the flash drive.
It would be great if there was a freeware app with XP explorer shell integration to queue file transfers (copy or move)
“A file transfer to this device is already in progress. Queue transfer or begin simultaneous transfer?”
While I’m wishing… I’d like some 1394 flash drives with bios boot support

hazaa Chromium Iron Fork new first: now with adblock built-in
Adblocking is essential to privacy. SRware’s fork of Chromium, is the only way to use the google (evil ad serving empire) open source web browser. A few bytes closer to ideal:
11.10.2008: Adblocker integrated in Iron
The wish of many users comes true: We integrated an
Adblocker in Iron!
With a filterlist so nearly all online-advertising can be
blocked. A working list can bedownloaded
here and just has to be copied to the Iron folder (e.g:
C:\Program Files\Iron Fork\). Note: You must first get the
latest version of Iron you can find under “Downloads”.
So Iron is the first Chromium based webbrowser worldwide
which has an adblocker included.
It does not fully support the AdBlockPlus format; it is a loose implementation borrowing from http://fanboy.co.nz/adblock
Hopefully SRware Iron Fork will soon tie into the context menu to take advantage of the built in inspector, whitelisting, and element hiding
If one plans to use Steve Pellegrin’s set of scripts to strip down rick752’s AdBlockPlus list, The EasyList, originally intended for BFilter, with SRware’s Iron Chromium Fork some adjustments might be needed
Otherwise manually ditch the whitelist, convert ! to # for comments, and dump $ and following per line.
Portable Iron Fork … eat the web safely

chromium fortified with Tempered Iron Fork
As the twig is bent, so grows the tree
Patience minions.. we’re in the same boat when proxomitron filter developers first started appearing. Don’t forget many of them all still active.
The adblocking option oft not mentioned: BFilter
Hopefully the Tempered Iron Fork will outlast the Chrome Fork….

How to create a Painter Image Hose nozzle
http://conceptart.org/forums/showthread.php?t=95131
1. In the Canvas menu, choose Grid > Grid Options and set the grid spacing to the width and height that will hold the largest element in your Nozzle.
2. Open a new white Canvas large enough to contain two or three rows of Nozzle elements, depending on how many you plan to include.
3. Create a new Layer containing one of your Nozzle elements and using the Layer Adjuster tool, move that element into the first grid square on the left end of the top row.
4. Create another new Layer containing another of your Nozzle elements and using the Layer Adjuster tool, move that element into the second grid square from the left, on the top row.
5. Continue until you have your Nozzle elements each on a different Layer and placed in different grid squares. If you have, for instance, eight Nozzle elements, you’d have two grid rows each containing four Nozzle elements.
6. Hold down the Shift key, and in the Layers palette, highlight all of the Nozzle element Layers, then use Ctrl/Command+G to Group them.
7. In the Nozzle Selector menu, choose Make Nozzle from Group.
8. Save the resulting image in RIFF format.
To use the Nozzle:
1. In the Nozzle Selector menu, choose Load Nozzle, navigate to the folder where you saved the RIFF file and click the Open button.
2. In the Brush Selector menu, choose the Image Hose brush category.
3. Paint on the Canvas to see how your Nozzle works and if you don’t like the result, choose another Image Hose variant and try again.

UC-Logic WP8060-TAB08 using PenTablet Simulated driver for HID Minidriver – not pentab not wintab not well designed
among other curiosities it installs one HID, two mice, and one tablet device. AFAIK Wacom has patented the no-battery stylus, so this tablet’s stylus uses one AAA battery. $35 from retailer + $7 shipping. Recently discovered there’s a $20 rebate available!
Install drivers, connect tablet, enjoy the plethora of new devices!
now: FOUR HIDs, three HID mice, and one tablet:
http://technologyquestions.com/technology/tablet-pc-averatec/2503-c3500-digitizer.html
Most tablet-capable programs use the Wintab32.dll interface. In more recent incarnations of pen-based computing, I discover that Wintab has been discarded in favor of wisptis.exe (Windows Ink Services). There is also a shift to HID-based devices exclusively.

mp4box crashing in mediacoder 0.6.1.4045
so I replaced it with an older CelticDruid build:
http://tirnanog.fate.jp/mirror/gpac/dev/mp4box.old/MP4Box20070720.7z
and it stopped crashing
