When you save files to your hard disk, they are broken into small manageable blocks and then saved on to the hard disk. When there is enough space on your hard disk to save all of the blocks together on your computer, your computer will do this. Having all the blocks of a file continuously saved together on the hard disk really improves the performance of your computer.

Ninite – Multiple app installer
Thursday, October 29th, 2009Stumbled on this at http://lifehacker.com
Idea is when on a new computer, or someone’s who doesn’t have any apps installed, instead of downloading them one at a time and having to hit Next, Next, Next, etc… you can click all the apps you want, download them all at once, and it installs them all at once.

Viewing your IP settings on Windows.
Wednesday, October 14th, 2009I am going to start off with a nice easy one and that is viewing your IP settings. Personally I like to view them using the old DOS command ipconfig.
To try this command for yourself you need to open a DOS window. To do this in Windows NT, 2000 and XP do the following.
Click Start.
Then Click run.
Then type cmd and press enter.
