Will Windows 8 Work with my PC Games? XP Mode Clarity?

I am planning to upgrade my OS to Windows 8 from Windows 7. I heard some of my fellow Jamaicans on forums say that they have issues with win 8 and their pc games. They won't work in windows 8. Now I want to get the version of windows 8 that will enable me to use windows xp mode so I can run my games. Granted, the OS isn't out so I am assuming my J'can friends used the pre-release/test release. i just was reading here that Windows 8's XP mode may allow me to use older software that ran on XP.…See More

Option to 'Read More' at previews of blog posts for "Artarius Theme"

I have been using this cool new theme "Artarius Theme" from wordpress.org and it works just the way I want except for the fact that when it goes into content preview it summarizes the blog post but shows nothing beside the image for the post to say "read more' instead of having to click the title.

Wordpress.org: Newer Entries, Older Entries not visible on pages

Over the weekend I installed and activated this cool wordpress.org theme on my wordpress.org blog "Artarius Theme" and I have loved it. But I tried to put a sliding bar at the top of the page as a placefiller and that messed up my settings. I did so in 'Artarius PANEL.' I had the option of switching from a magazine typed appearance or a blog appearance. To this point I wanted a normal interface you would see on most blogs. Not a picture to the left with a summary to the right beside it. I had…See More

Getting iPad'd

Posted on March 31, 2010 at 5:30pm 0 Comments

First time blogging here. I guess I'll start with the iPad hype that is going around. the iPad launches this Saturday and from what I heard on G4 demand outweighs supply so they are gonna have to work out how they going to get iPads to all those who ordered and pre-ordered them.

Apple is quickly becoming a media and tech powerhouse again. Wishing them al the best. They have great stuff.
