@MyLifeinCode: When I was starting out I wish I'd read this sooner; http://www.amazon.co.uk/Code-Complete-Practical-Handbook-Construction/dp/0735619670/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1292236492&sr=8-1

Probably the most read book I have.

Great video but that audio was shocking in places listening through a headset... Got a bit distracting in parts...

Think I've said this before but I'd love a Kinect to play with apart from gaming!

Interesting times ahead.

@Sven Groot Thank you for clearing this up for me. 

I have moved .exe's to another location and since doing so the folder is much more responsive.

Thanks again

Hey niners,

Im wondering if someone can maybe read this and see if I am going wrong somewhere. Basically whenever I open my downloads folder, explorer takes an age to display the contents of the folder (its on another hard disk) so I added the folder to the indexing options hoping it would open in a more timely manner... however, it still take a good 30-40 seconds before I can actually get at my files.

Any ideas what I am doing wrong? This is the only folder that I have slow access to. I do have other folders on this drive which open fine.

Thanks for your time.

So far the only thing I dislike with anything I have seen about Kinect, is using it as a game controller...

@fanboy: Sometimes its better the Devil you know!

Unfortunately Mdsiddiqali I cannot understand the English to your problem well enough to be able to help.

Perhaps you should head over to StackOverflow.com where you are likely to get more of a response.

Good luck!

@RodAtWork: There is a freeware tool called Gencontrol that will do this. Just make sure you are running a higher res than the user and you dont mouse over the window or you'll initiate control.

Its a simple .exe which will locate all pc's on your network and requires no client install.

Flash working fine here also.

Been using the browser for a few days now. Im very impressed!

one of my personal highlights is the font rendering. Text just looks so much better/cooler!

Its as fast if not faster than Chrome.
