I appreciate the positive response to the Win10 Tweak Guide, especially to those who have made a purchase. Although I never break even for the year it definitely helps keep this site going.
One of the cool things about this site is being able to reach so many both near and far. As I have said before, it is awesome and humbling. In the last 2 years, here are the localities of tweak guide buyers: (if I missed you or got something wrong please let me know)
*The list below wasn’t intended to offend anyone. Quite the opposite in fact. The data came from the Paypal invoices from the last 2 years. Some have no address. My security software has the ability to see “live traffic”. Sometimes I pop over there to see what bot is hammering away at the server or poking at a port but I can see all traffic. I’m always pleasantly surprised to see people from all over the globe reading articles here.

Please remove your hat and bow your head in a moment of silence…

Time to lay my Gigabyte GA-EP35C-DS3R system to rest. After over 12 years she has a fried capacitor and 2 of 4 memory sticks are bad.
She ran Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, 10, and openSUSE. She RAIDed Raptors, displayed GeForce and Radeon, RAMed Corsair and G.Skill, rocked out to Audigy and X-FI, was powered by many, and lived in multiple cases.
She was beaten on in many a benchmark and frankly I’m amazed she lasted so long.

Have a good weekend

Seems like so much around us sucks right now and I’ve nothing positive to report on.
So, I thought I would leave you this Friday with a video from 2012 that has resurfaced several times this year and I love it.
This is the band Heart doing Led Zeppelin’s Stairway To Heaven at the Kennedy Center Honors with Jason Bonham on the drums and John Paul Jones, Jimmy Page, and Robert Plant looking on…

*edit – Good friend Mr. Ed just sent me this:
