Do I Touch This Doo-Dad to My Tongue?

Sometimes the internet is a great place to seek information. Sometimes...not so much. Usually I find more junk than gems. Tech help on the web can be very evasive at times. Some sites are hard to navigate, become bogged down in techno-jargon, and leave loose ends. Check out the Microsoft Knowledge Base if you like clutter and site search engines that are frustrating. Hey, I do admit the MKB has saved me a few times. That still does not justify the horrible navigation. Bet Lardbutt Goofball Steve Ballmer has something to do with it.

Every once in a while downright astounding articles show up. If you have been thinking about changing a motherboard please browse over to ExtremeTech. This is well written, precise, easy to navigate, and not overbearing. They have gathered very good guidelines for changing most any workstation or desktop motherboard. Nice to see good flow and definite order concerning how to proceed in what can be a delicate installation. Their tips about what to do before uninstalling the old motherboard are super.

Of course we are all human and have the right to create our own opinions. One of my favorite sites, How-To Geek, recently ran an article about anti-virus programs and recommended McAfee's Stinger. I wouldn't run anything McAfee offers on my toaster. Yet there's a massive amount of knowledge at this site. Just finished one of the Geek's posts on why svchost.exe is a process that runs, most of the time in more than one instance. Uber article that helped me gain clarity why this is needed. Go take a look at How-To Geek. Just please stay away from McAfee products. Unless you like garbage.

As always these are my humble opinions. If you attempt anything recommended here, please remember my hands were NOT on your keyboard. It's your own risk. Try to have a casual Monday. If you have time and are of a mind please pray for the poor folks being pounded by weather across the country. Shucks, just say a prayer for our country period.
