Hola! Purchased myself a nifty 1 TB Western Digital External to celebrate Black Friday. Has both the USB 2.0 and Firewire options.

Mouse and window positions by Sam
Here is a strange one. If I have a window open and move my mouse over to the left or top edge to resize the window, the cursor changes to the double arrow not on the border but inside the window a bit. On the other two sides the cursor changes outside the window a bit. If I click on the mouse, the cursor edges over to the correct position on the appropriate border.

Battery plugged in, not charging by pigeon-wing
I'm running Windows Vista on a Gateway NX570X laptop. About a year after I bought it, it slid off the table and bent the connecter for the original AC adapter, so I bought a new adapter online. It's an off-brand adapter, but the voltage outputs and inputs are the same as my old adapter, and it charged the battery fine for about two months. Then the battery started charging halfway and then less...

With some trepidation, I installed the software I use to control my cell phone. I don't have a computer cable for it, but I do have a little USB Bluetooth device I used on my previous XP setup. Dang if Vista didn't find that Bluetooth device and install it properly the first time out. I was able to get my cell phone and the software to recognize each other. So far, I've had only very minor...
