Learn about and make Windows XP work your way...
I run Windows XP on my computer, and I have to say that despite some drawbacks, there's a lot to like about the operating system.
If you're an XP user like me, I bet you'd like to tweak Windows XP to suit your needs. Now, you can. I've found three programs at ZDNet Downloads that let you bend the OS to your will. Whether you want to improve XP's performance, change its appearance, or customize the included Windows Media Player, here are the tools
to try.
miTweak-XP: lets you change the way Windows XP uses memory. It performs automatic shutdowns, allows applications and menus to use transparency effects, and randomizes logon themes. Plus, it's free! (Free/Windows)
Customizer XP: optimizes your XP system's cache and RAM, gives you full control over startup items, and cleans out your system automatically. It also lets you change XP's appearance in many different ways. (Shareware/Windows)
Windows Media Bonus Pack for Windows XP: gives you all kinds of goodies for customizing the Windows Media Player. It includes skins for changing its look, sound effects, and a utility for converting MP3 files to WMA files. (Free/Windows)
Try these tools, and make it work the way you want.

Windows XP: Hello to Net phone service
Telephone service through the Internet hasn't amounted to much more than a novelty. Quality is questionable, and conventional phone service is relatively cheap and comfortingly familiar. But so-called voice-over-IP service may be getting a big boost to legitimacy and mainstream use in the form of Microsoft's forthcoming Windows XP operating system, which promises to make Net-based calls as good as regular phone service.
MS PULLS BLUETOOTH FROM XP
The story: Microsoft has dropped plans for its forthcoming Windows XP to support Bluetooth, the wireless technology that allows portable devices and peripherals to connect to one another. Reason: Frustration at the speed at which the platform is developing, and the lack of stable Bluetooth hardware. While third-party software developers will be able to write software enabling Bluetooth hardware to run on Windows XP machines, Bluetooth devices will not be able to seamlessly connect to Microsoft-based PCs, as many had hoped.

Well done on a nice blog himavanth. I was searching for information on santa suits and came across your post Learn about and make Windows XP work your way... - not quite what I was looking for related to santa suits but very nice all the same!
We're all getting ready for Christmas and I've just put the finishing touches to my new site specially for kids, or rather their parents and relatives. You can go there and get Santa to send a really nice personalized letter to a youngster. It's great fun! If you have a moment, perhaps you'd enjoy taking a look: Letter from Santa .
Well, a merry Christmas to you and yours!
