Microsoft created a new set of imaging tools for the windows vista release. The new WIM format is a powerful tool that can be useful to  any power user. From the admin trying to simplify the deployments in his environment to the average guy looking for a free way to take flexible images of his home machine. In this set of articles I am going to cover how to take full advantage of these new tools

Download octopus1.3.2

Octopus is a program that allows you to run, view and control multiple applications simultaneously over a network or on a single computer. Though Octopus can be used for nearly any application and configured many ways, this article will focus on running two instances of a game, in this case World of Warcraft, on a single computer.

Getting Started

The following steps assume that you already have an installed copy of Octopus (version 1.3.2 is used for this demonstration) and World of Warcraft. You will also need two active World of Warcraft accounts, and while it is entirely legal to own and play multiple WoW accounts, it is not legal to buy, sell, trade or even use another account other then your own.

NOTE: Vista users may need to launch this as administrator if there appears to be problems with Octopus not saving configuration settings properly.

WKOW 27: Madison, WI Breaking News, Weather and Sports -27 News Troubleshooter: Woman blames Dell for missing online classes.

I promissed myself i wouldnt rehash digg on techfaction but this gave me the most solid laugh i have had in a while from a news article that is intended to be serious.

“Her Verizon High-Speed Internet CD won’t load, so she can’t access the internet.  She also can’t install Microsoft Word, which she says is a requirement for MATC’s online classes.As a result, with no internet and no Microsoft Word, Schubert dropped out of MATC’s fall and spring semesters.”

lol.

I think dell is still partialy to blame. I think it is great that dell is pushing Ubuntu but they need to maybe explain it more clearly to the average joe buying a computer.

Desktop Tower Defense

desktop-tower-defence11

Hey i figured id test out the “press this” function in Wordpress. This is a great flash game i love playing.  You need to place towers on your board. Enemies walk (or fly) through the board. The towers automaticaly attack enemies.

The strategy comes from which towers you place (because they have diffrent attacks) and how they are placed. You can make elaborate mazes to make sure the enemies are getting hit as much as posible by all the towers. You get more money as your towers kill enemies. With the extra money you can add more towers or upgrade existing ones. This is flash crack and im going to go ahead and warn you to not start playing if you have plans for the rest of your day.

Well i guess this is my first real post. I was re-watching this movie while i was setting up this site. This is one of the best documentaries that i have ever seen. The best part is the douchebag antagonist. Im not really going to go into more details because this is mostly a test post
