Microsoft PowerToys for Windows XP
An old one but a gold one.
Pop quiz hot shot. Your reinstalling Windows XP on one of your machines (because none of your drivers support Vista and also all your legacy programming wont work on vista...)
Which power toys do you add?
Answers:
a: Clear type tuner - without a doubt
b:Alt-Tab replacement
c: Raw image thumbnailer
d: Tweak UI
e: Color control panel applet
f:Image resizer
g: open command window here
Thats right - most of them!

cpCommerce - OpenSourceCMS
OpenSourceCMS
Try before you dont buy.. A great site for trying out the various CMS (content management system) installs that are available in open source software. Fantastic idea, saves a lot of time setting up systems in order to trial them.
The way the site works is simplicity itself, a selection of open source systems are setup with admin passwords available for you to try them out. The site has a countdown of 2 hours in which you can play to your hearts content - once the two hours is up all the CMS reset back to standard build, ready for everyone to play again.
Its not all heart - the site offers reasonably priced hosting services as well so once youve chosen the CMS that works you can go on and deploy it.
Downside - I dont see any dot net CMS systems...

Welcome to Toppy.org.uk
Toppy.org.uk
A toppy is a topfield hard disk recorder for digital terrestial broadcasts - e.g. a freeview box!
toppys are great devices as standard, a nice looking bit of kit with twin tuners so you can record two programs at once and watch another (if its on the same mux) or you can watch one record one.
What makes it a great bit of kit though is that if you go to toppy.org.uk you can download countless apps which you can install onto your toppy to make it even better.. one such app is my stuff, my stuff is an enhancement to the epg guide which comes as standard with the topfield, it adds icons for the channels to make it more like sky plus and it makes it easier to set series recordings and key word recordings.
Ideal to make sure you dont miss dr who......
