How to Remove Ubuntu Netbook Remix Without Windows CD and Restore Windows MBR
Last Updated on Monday, 8 February 2010 05:52 Written by DarkKnightH20 Tuesday, 9 February 2010 10:00
I ran across the issue the other day with my netbook. I wanted to remove Ubuntu Netbook Remix, but deleting the Linux partition would cause GRUB, the bootloader, to cause errors. GRUB is usually removed by using a Windows Operating System Install CD and running commands through a special prompt. However, since netbooks don’t have CD drives, this was an issue. Sure, I could have done something through a USB flash drive or even through a USB external DVD/CD drive, but no, I found an even easier way to do it. You can restore your MBR without any devices needed and you don’t even have to restart your computer. I added this information to the Review: Ubuntu Netbook Remix, as well as informaton on how to delete the Linux partition on a dual boot Windows-Linux environment. Hope it helps!
Ubuntu That Looks Like Windows XP

This is really cool in my opinion since Windows XP is my favorite Windows OS. Ylmf OS, an operating system based on Ubuntu, has been designed to look very similar to Windows XP. It is only in Chinese currently, but that will hopefully change some day.

This is an old video, but a classic video. The Windows startup sound has been replaced on a library computer to something a bit better.

Windows 7 Dominos
Last Updated on Saturday, 6 March 2010 05:31 Written by Naota Wednesday, 28 October 2009 02:45
As part of the celebration for the release of Windows 7, 20 Microsoft employees got together and created a domino setup using 7,000 dominos. Why they didn’t just use 7,777 dominos, I don’t know. But as you can see after about a minute and a half, Windows 7 experiences its first error.
The video is a little slow but still. It’s kind of entertaining.
