I downloaded.. uh.. 'got' Windows Blinds the other day so I could try out one windows theme I saw a while back. I'm using it now and it's pretty damn nice, and I swear the computer is running faster. Preview here: http://www.skinbase.org/zoom.php?id=32193

 It looks awesome ( it's not green, it's black/transparent ), runs well, and is pretty thorough in changes. One of the coolest themes I've seen. It got me thinkin - do any of you guys ( and gals ) use any theme(s)? Share please.

Also, while I'm on the topic of computers, what programs could you not go without? For me: FF3, gtalk, skype, spybotS&D, AVG, winamp, some version of notepad, veohTV beta, taskbar shuffler, and winRAR.

Hilarious. It doesn't store anything, so you're good on that. My results weren't correct though ( I'm not exactly the typical chick, so it's understandable ):

Likelihood of you being FEMALE is 2%
Likelihood of you being MALE is 98%

I was browsing the net and found this gem: http://www.w3bdevil.com/

Some of you might not understand it, but I found it hilarious! Feel free to try and beat this site as the geekiest.

Justin and I just watched the movie 'Hackers' together. It's his favorite, and it was my first time seeing it. And I gotta say - I understand now why it’s his favorite! It was made in 1995 and like the title suggests is about this one group of hackers. They get involved with some macho, money-stealing asshole when one of them gets some dirt on what he’s up to, and have to use their hacking know-how to save themselves from being framed and to get the truth out ( and the guy caught ). The interaction between all the characters is hilarious ( my favorite character being Emmanuel Goldstein, played by Matthew Lillard ) and not only that- Angelina Jolie’s tits flash across screen a total of what.. three times? Once covered, but barely.

 This is definitely a movie for geeks, 'cause it involves some hilarious out-of-date computing ( toaster boxes, and believe it or not - a laptop with a 28bps modem! ) and a pretty ingrossing plotline.. And not only is the chick in the group hot and incredibly kickass, she’s rocker and played by a young Angelina Jolie. I highly suggest watching it.
