Version 3.0 of the alternate browser Firefox as moved to full release status. I have long been a proponent of this browser, and so far 3.0 is a worthy upgrade. They said it’s faster; it is, they said it’s cleaner; it is, and they said add-ons will work with it; they do for the most part. I only had incompatibility with about 5% of the add-ons I had installed in Firefox 2. To be honest I only used one of the few that where incompatible currently.
To download go to getfirefox.com, if it is availible. With the rush to download it the servers have had a hard time keeping up. Here is a direct link to the ‘Firefox Setup 3.0.exe‘ file on the mozilla servers as an alternative.

One of the greatest first person shooters ever created, OK maybe not the greatest, but the most well know. Duke Nukem! I used to play this every lunch hour for years, then it go to old. Promises of a new version where told. It’s been in development for 12 years. Does it really exist. The answer is yes. The Jace Hall show gets an exclusive look of Duke Nukem Forever from inside the development lab at 3D Realms. The Duke Nukem bit is about 2 minutes 30 seconds into the video. Enjoy!

Riding around on two wheels was never really an interest of mine. Not to mention, since my motor scooter incident, frankly I have been a little afraid. Well that all is about to change. With a brand new motor cycle sitting in the garage and an expecting wife unable to drive it, I decided what the heck. I went and got my instructional permit today and I am working on getting class ‘M’ added to my drivers license. Drivers of Milwaukee, look out!

Buy now almost every PC ships with a CD, DVD or Combination burner that allows you to save files to a CD or DVD. However the software that comes included with most PCs does not allow you to burn ISO images without upgrading. ISO images are complete copies of a CD or DVD in a single file format. Some software packeages are distributed in this manner and require that you burn the ISO image to use it.
BurnCDCC is freeware that allows you to easily burn ISO images to CD and DVD. It’s a self contained EXE file that does not even need to be installed on your computer. It can run from a thumb drive or network location. All the software needs is access to the hardware to burn the CD.
Download it for free: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/burncdcc.html
