[04:44:52] <chromas> FallenFox
[05:46:46] <Runaway1956> Computers tend to shrink over time, and that includes screen real estate
[05:47:26] <Runaway1956> I have two 24" screens, with lots of room for a couple browsers, a terminal, video, this, that, and something else too
[05:47:39] <Runaway1956> But, it's begun to get crowded with all the crap I have open
[05:47:56] <chromas> Don't forget about virtual desktops
[05:47:57] <Runaway1956> "What did I do with blah blah, it's around here somewhere!"
[05:48:08] <chromas> Does your taskbar need a taskbar?
[05:48:12] <Runaway1956> Oh, fek, I turned OFF virtual desktops
[05:48:20] <Runaway1956> damned near chromas
[05:48:48] <Runaway1956> It's full, with all the tabs shrunken down to near illegibility
[05:49:23] <chromas> maybe the taskbar needs colored—oops! I mean buttons of color
[05:49:32] <chromas> like IE has
[05:50:01] <Runaway1956> LOL - I use IE at work, and those damned colored buttons are annoying as hell - especially the yellow ones
[05:50:14] <Runaway1956> "What wrong, that tab needs my attention, or what?"
[05:50:41] * chromas uses tabs of color in firefox with coloring set by domain
[05:51:24] <Runaway1956> I tried something like that once - the only thing I really want, is for my current tab to be highlighted
[05:51:47] <chromas> treeview tabs are nice too
[05:51:49] <Runaway1956> I use dark themes, and the active tab is often hidden among all the other tabs
[05:52:08] <chromas> I love the dark themes, but firefox doesn't
[05:52:22] <chromas> I keep getting light gray text in white edit fields
[05:52:53] <Runaway1956> Chrome, chromium, and iron need some work for dark themes - no matter what theme you use, you still have a lot of white space
[05:53:16] <chromas> is iron a chrome fork like opera? or is that the one by the av company?
[05:55:03] <Runaway1956> srware iron is a fork of chrome/chromium, stripped of all the intrusive bullshit - http://www.srware.net

[05:58:55] <Runaway1956> UPS's don't last long enough when they are new - as they age, they just go to shit
[05:59:19] <Runaway1956> Pick a good quality UPS, and replace the dinky little batteries with REAL batteries
[05:59:43] <Runaway1956> 3 hours runtime sounds damned good to me -
[06:00:05] <chromas> with how many monitors though?
[06:00:20] <Runaway1956> Two monitors -
[06:00:43] <Runaway1956> Everything I have combined doesn't equal the video card though
[06:01:12] <chromas> it needs its own ups
[06:01:51] <Runaway1956> that's just about right, 250 watt video card is a lot of power
[06:02:18] <Runaway1956> 'course, the video card doesnt' pull that all the time, only when it's working
