So long Acrobat Reader
Thanks to Scott
Hanselman, I have put Adobe Acrobat reader out of its misery. Good riddens! I
won’t miss your long boot times, amazingly bad updating story, and endless prompts
to download other random Adobe software I don’t want. Plus I won’t have
an aggravating experience viewing PDFs in IE.
Foxit is great.

Loading ...New SlickRun Beta Release
Eric Lawrence has updated my favorite
windows application with some great little tweaks. If you aren’t using SlickRun you

bar” you can enable in the task menu but far more powerfull. I use it dozens
of times a day.
