Google Tasks in your Windows 7 Desktop. I have been trying to separate my tasks from browser lately.
Most of the time, I end up opening one tab, then another tab... and before I know it, at least 10 tabs are open. Anyway, Google Tasks is now my favorite To Do List (Previously, I liked Remember the Milk) because of its integration to Gmail, and Google Calender and iGoogle. One thing that I wanted to do was to manipulate google tasks without any browser. Sure, Google gadgets allows me to do that. But installing Google Gadgets just for managing tasks? 3rd Party applications are there as well. So, meet minibrowser gadget for Windows Vista and 7. You can get it from here- Now, after you install it, add to your Windows 7 Desktop. It will look a bit less "view worthy".

I can't wait to get home and tweak out my setup. Anyone have a recommendation on where to get a PCI or PCI Express x1 video card on the cheap? Something with just enough oomph to throw up an image on a 3rd display. @ericesque: If you're not looking to game or do anything crazy.... you can't go wrong picking up a last-generation but-still-brand-name card for around $40-60. I'd have to dig out the receipt but I believe I only paid $50 for my dual-head video card. @Jason Fitzpatrick: @pettiblay: Thanks for the ideas. The external matrox device would be an option, but I can going the video card route seems to be cheaper. Registry hack gives Windows XP five more years of updates. Not ready to give up on Windows XP just yet?
Then here’s some good news. It looks like you can score yourself five more years of Windows updates with about 15 seconds worth of work. All it takes is a simple registry edit. Fire up regedit and navigate to HKLM\Sytem\WPA and create a new key call PosReady. Click on that new key, add a new DWORD value, and set it to 1. Instead, your system will report itself as a Windows POSReady device. The edit I’ve mentioned will work on a 32-bit XP system. All told, that’s a whopping 18 years of updates for Windows XP. If there’s really no way you can justify spending the money on a new system or an OS upgrade and you’re not comfortable installing Linux on your system, the answer is yes. But remember that XP as a whole isn’t anywhere near as secure as Windows 7 or Windows 8.
