I want to keep writting more articles for the site, which helps a bit in incresing the amount of guests as they are featured on many tech sites and people come to read them, and might happen to check out the forum while they are reading.

But I can't think of any subjects anymore! :P

If anyone has any ideas put them here, this is like a giant brain storm, spam anything you can think of, good or bad. It might give me more ideas. At the same time, if there's a subject you'd like to see covered you can post it as well.


If anyone wants to WRITE articles for here to have them posted up and featured on many tech sites (our affiliates + more) then simply PM me the subject and a brief explaination to make sure I can approve it, and start writting. I always approve, but it's good for you to let me know that way, we don't get multiple articles covering the same exact subject. But part 2's of articles are fine. For example, a part 2 to the html one could go deeper into making a good looking website etc...

I just had an idea pop in my head, anyone want a DOS tutorial? :roflmao2:

I'd write some for you but you were on the other forum so you know what would happen :lol:

just keep up the good work here as you been doing.

i just wonder how much is going to be needed when they (ms) bring out longhorn. :grade11math:


maybe you can figure out how to crack the drm software and the drm chip that is said to become needed on every motherboard if you use a computer and is already said to be needed by longhorn. :awesome:

Hmm that would make a good article, but the jerks who do the DMCA and all that crap would probably sue me though. :lol: But with donations from the warez underground I'm sure I could keep it covered. :roflmao:

It's think it's more like Virtual machine ware... it's a program that allows you to run just about any OS on top of windows or linux.. that is you could be running a win2k system and then run win98, linux, dos, and winXP in vmware while 2k is still going in the bg. I'd say it's an OS emulator, but it's really not. Whatever Os you de cide to use with vmware is still dependant on your existing hardware.

I was thinking about using it to finally go linux only with my system, using vmware to run 2k, 98, or Dos when I needed to play certain games or use certain apps. But I still got alot of stuff I need to backup before I can wipe my drives.

I heard of this before. That's pretty cool!

You can run Linux, Win3.1, win 95, win98, win2k and win me all at the same time, in their own window. :P

Like how solitaire in win98 difers from the one in win 3.11? Actually, that would be a good article... but I don't play it enough to know. :D

I have this great one that should come soon, and it will show you how to create your own shell icon like the Ie icon, recycle bin, network neightboorhood etc. Those are not just ordinary shortcuts, but special shell icons and I remember a while back I used to make my own with win98. Not sure if it's the same in win2k and xp though.
