Dual boot XP and Windows Vista? It's not that hard! • Non-destructive partitioning? GParted LiveCD is a great free tool, but Norton's PartitionMagic 8 is the gold standard. • Free antivirus recommendation for Totally Infected's parents? Our man Neil at PCMag.com says check out avast! 4 Home Edition and AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition • Antivirus for the Mac boxes in your office? Randy, your IT man is a belt and suspenders kind o' guy. • Server based antivirus scan? Feel like getting your beta on? Check out Panda's Nanoscan. More deets on the show... and Appscout's review! • Gabriel wants to know when we'll go HD. (We'll need an HD Tricaster first!) • That headphones/crossing the street summons? One NYPD member responds. • Is it your web connection, or your browser? We show you how to use IPCONFIG and PING in a command line window to see if you're connected to the network and to the internet! • Viewer pics: Patrick sends us pix of his "Geeky Room" and Barry simple says "Spike It." We want more pictures from you! Ya might score a t-shirt... NEWS • Sony May Stop Cell Development • Mexican drug gangs bring war to YouTube. It's only inappropriate if it's been flagged. • Ever lost a notebook? Don't feel bad. Even the FBI misplaces hardware. MORE STUFF • It's not strictly P2P, and there's an interesting element of local caching at your ISP. Why do you care? It might be a faster, cheaper way to deliver big files (Like DL.TV!) • Help us test it out by downloading our H.264 version via Itiva's QStream. (You'll need to download a small executable file to use their system.) • Having trouble watching our new Flash player over your Wii or PS3? We're working on it!
