TechTAK is Moving Timeslots!!!
Hi folks! Just fair warning to everyone that the show will be moving to a new time. Starting on January 6, 2007 the show will air from 4-5pm Alaska time. (That's 5-6pm Pacific, 8-9pm Eastern, 1-2am GMT) Don't forget to change your PDA/Cell phone datebooks/etc to the proper time starting then. In the words of Tak, just before he passed out: "We're getting the prime-time slot?!? ... OWW! I hit my head!"

Takali's Tricky Tips:
|
|
Restore a Lost Desktop
Awhile back, we received a call at the shop asking for help. The caller's program had crashed and their desktop had disappeared, leaving them with only the taskbar. After testing countless software apps and having them crash on me, I knew this one. Recovery is but a couple clicks away...
Hibernate Desktop Icon
For those of you who use hibernate mode as much as I do, this is a great little tip. It allows you to create a shortcut icon on your desktop or your quicklaunch to hibernate your system without having to go through the normal odd procedure.

Be sure to check out our Sponsors!!!
We want everyone to be perfectly clear on something: If not for our sponsors, there would be no show, and there would DEFINITELY be none of the GREAT giveaways that we now have on the show!!!
We have always been very proud of the fact that we don't take "presents" and money from vendors with products that we don't hold to VERY high standards just to say they sponsor the show. We get offers all the time from companies that simply want a quick sale, and we generally refuse them. The sponsors and advertisers that we promote here on TechTAK are those who pass our strict substance and ethics guidelines.
Make sure you show them YOUR support for doing a better job than the rest by purchasing their goods and services!!! Click HERE to check out our Sponsor Page, with a rundown of who they are and what they sell...
