Free Software Of The Day Is Back!-Vixy.net Converter

Everybody loves our "Free Software Of The Day" but we havent ben doing it for a while...but now its back!!

B.T.W. It should really be called "Free Software of Every Other Day" Because we normally dont do it every day. ;)
Vixy.net Converter

When i got my ipod video...i thought " what am i gonna do with 30 Gigs? I dont have that many songs!". I had a lot of videos i wanted to add, but they were all on Youtube! But then I found a way- Vixy.net

Vixy.net Converter is a fla to video converter, so basically you can convert Youtube videos to go on your ipod (or your computer). All you have to do is type in the Youtube URL, and the videos converted and you can download it to your computer or ipod!!! Their is a web version ( http://www.vixy.net/ )but you can also download the software to convert here.

p.s. You have to have web access to use it

The NEW 9600gt :D.

Sorry, we are really late on this, but nvidia's new 9600gt just came out!! :D. It is a card that is priced around MSRP $180. It most benchmarks , it is a little bit behind the 8800gt, and performs on par with a 3870! Now Nvidia finally has a competitor to amd's 3850 and 70! And the future 9xxx seiries look promising :D. So far the only OC'ed 9600gt is evga's 9600gt, which ups it from 650Mhz to 675Mhz, but doesn't budge the memory clock. If I bought my pc now, then I would have an 9600gt instead of a lowly 8600gts now :( .. :P lol.

My new fav OS: Linux Mint Celena/Darnya

I have had a lot of linux os' and I have used a TON of operating systems during my 2 yr use of linux. I started with SuSE, Fedora, and a couple others, and eventually I setteled down with Ubuntu. (Ever since 6.06). I was browsing distros, and I found linux mint. Linux Mint is an OS based on ubuntu, but it has a lot of other features. It has a better theme, and it looks great, and it has a lot of applications to make using linux easier. The latest version is Linux Mint Darnya, and is based on Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy. Try it out!
