I know I’ve been bragging about the 4 Gb Ram upgrade a lot. However, it’s really the excitement of having 4 Gb which is compelling me to brag about it. I feel like that teenager who loves to show off the hardware configuration in tech forums. Anyway, yesterday itself my heart ached and I definitely skipped a couple of heart beats when I came to know that Chris Pirillo has got 16 Gb of Ram in his computer!

Getting back to the point – I didn’t order the Macbook with 4 Gb of Ram as we all know that the charges of Apple computers and other devices are really pathetic. I ordered the Ram from Crucial as the cost of 4 Gb of ram (2Gb x 2) was only $ 110 as compared to $ 500 of what Apple would have charged me!

Finally the day arrived when I got my First ever notebook and that too an Apple Macbook! I’m all excited and the feeling of playing with this machine is just too good for me. I know I’ve not posted from last 4 days or so and the reason was Holi Celebrations. Anyway, Belated Happy Holi to all of you.

I would like to share my first experience with my new Apple Macbook :

1. I’m missing my regular keyboard : I’m so used to windows and the regular keyboard I had earlier that I’m finding it difficult to adjust with Macbook’s keyboard. The shortcuts , keys almost everything is different.

2. Fast and Furious : Mac OS X is definitely faster than Windows. It boots up pretty fast and shuts down with in 10 sec. Of course 4 Gb of Ram is doing it’s work, however even when it was on 1 Gb it was way fast than windows.

3. Frustration comes when it comes to applications : I agree that I’m not used to Mac’s interface however,  there are lot of applications which are available on windows too, however the interface is little bit different.

mojo-pac You are on a vacation and you don’t want to carry your bulky laptop, but still you could get access to a computer. Here is a quick way to carry all your softwares with you, not the original setup, but the installed version in any data storage device, using MojoPac. This is specially made for professionals, gamers and students. Carry your computer with you. Here we go.

MojoPac can be installed onto any data storage device :

- Plug in your storage device (could be anything, USB flash or hard drives, iPods, Memory Sticks whatever) in a Windows XP system, download MojoPac from MojoPac.com and install it onto the storage device.
- Once this is done, you can login into this MojoPC (which runs from the storage device) from any system running on Windows XP.
- Once you plug-in your storage device onto the system, it would ask for the username and password (you set this when you install MojoPac). And then it directly uses the windows installed in that machine and gives you your own desktop (it’s almost like you run another computer with the existing hardware). So you could install whatever applications you need, games etc.

webaroo-2 When this blog was on Blogger.com platform, I’d reviewed WebAroo and loved it all the way. I still like the application and what it wants to do, however I still don’t find myself using it at all. Rather I tend to close it as soon as it starts.

Well, I’ll tell you that why I do so and why you should use it and why you shouldn’t in detail but before that lets see what’s new in this new version and how it has gone up from where it started, when last time we reviewed it.

WebAroo 2 is a client which downloads the websites, videos, images for you, so that you may access it while you are offline and still feel that you are online.

The notable features of WebAroo are that it downloads all the videos, web packs, photos at the background and doesn’t affect your normal browsing experience except for the fact that your browsing will be slow (as it’s constantly downloading something in the background).

If you are a web designer then I understand the pain you go through when it comes to coding the website and ensuring that the browser compatibility goes through completely.

I myself find it irritating that I can’t test the website on another version of Internet explorer once I upgrade the IE. I’d posted a small trick earlier on how to run various versions of IE on one computer and this particular post is even a simpler way of achieving that goal.

Yousif of TredoSoft has created an installer which installs 5 version Internet explorer :
