DHCP Server for Windows

March 11th, 2010

I intend to use this when setting up somewhere remotely and using a wireless ethernet hub.  Since I normally turn DHCP off on the hubs (so I can use them on my home network which has DHCP on the main server), it poses a problem when setting up somewhere that doesn't relay DHCP through the hub.  I've done some testing with it and it seems OK but I'll need to spend some additional time with it yet.

XMPlay - windows media player

March 11th, 2010

I used to be a die hard Winamp fan.  Over time, however, Winamp has become bloated and uses way too many system resources - so much so that it tends to kick my laptop fans on high and that's something I really like to avoid.  After some trial and error, I've settled in on XMPlay as my new music player.  It's very small, lightweight, and even requires no installation (just copy the files to your hard drive and run it).
