At work they gave us standing desks and tall ergo chairs similar to this one. The reality is that I never lower the desk, and only sit on the tall chair when I am tired, and that works great for me. So at home I ended up getting a tall desk from craigslist and an ergo chair which works the same in the end but at a much better price.

If you are using UEFI then I think windows does have the ability to change boot options. This happened to me as well, windows changed my boot order after an update.

Interesting idea, just need to make sure there are no bugs in the code or you'll be made fun of by geeks for the rest of your life :-)

That's a difficult question, you should know what hardware you buy my friend :) EDIT: I now realise this computer may be somebody else's, so scratch out the statement above Anyhow, is this a laptop or a desktop computer? If it's a laptop you can google the the make and model for it, otherwise I suggest you open the computer case and look at the video card for the make and model - that info is usually silked into the circuit board.

I've had problems with my two-monitor setup when I first installed win 8 here too and got it all fixed by updating the video driver with the latest one from the makers website (mine is an ATI Radeon)

My advice to you is to take a look at the installation projects available in Visual Studio. I've been using the one that comes out-of-the-box with Visual Studio 2010 for two years now, it's called ClickOnce if you wanna look it up and it's even used by Google on the windows version of Chrome so it's safe to say it's a pretty mature product and it's free for commercial use. This solution works wonders for my 200+ client base because it checks for updated executables on my server upon launch so it makes it that much easier to deploy new code. Just keep in mind this type of project is no longer supported in VS2012 so you may need to look for alternatives or just do like I'm doing now which is build my application in VS2012 and then use VS2010 only to generate the installation package. There are two popular alternatives to ClickOnce: InstallShield LE which is *VERY* limited unless you buy it, and WIX which I never really looked into but may suit your needs. Hope this helps.

VirtualBox claims to support hardware based 3D support in virtual machines (although I never really tried it). Might be worth a shot.

hahaha very clever, I say case closed! And so much for the G-Rated topic mentioned a few posts above too :D

Dude, THAT was inspiring! :)

Now THAT is a great idea. I'm kinda in the same position and was thinking of ways out and I will certainly consider doing this!

lasting 8 hours would be enough, that way in the end of a working day I could always give my boss the excuse that I forgot my charger home so I don't have to work overtime heheh

Agreed. I'm still concerned, though, with the fact that you never know which core and how much of it is already being used by the OS for other programs/tasks/threads, so in the end you never really know if you are indeed squeezing the most out of your multi-core architecture. Any thoughts on that?
Make sure they strap the controllers onto their wrists or the next time you post on a messageboard it may be at wiihaveaproblem.com lol :laugh:
No luck, Request.RawUrl will print out the page name even if the user did not explicitly typed it in.

it's a request from the SEO expert who's working with us. I wonder if there are any low-level IIS API calls I could use from within .NET to capture the exact HTTP command that was sent to the server. Any ideas?
Thanks for the quick reply on this, but that's not exactly what I'm looking for. Here's what I'm trying to accomplish: When the user reaches the default document on my website (default.aspx), I need to detect whether he used just the domain name (e.g. www.mysite.com) or if he also included the name of the file (e.g. www.mysite.com/default.aspx). I've been digging so deep into this I got bits stuck under my nails, and this is really the only way I could think of accomplishing this task. I am wide open for suggestions though - in fact, they will be much appreciated.
First off, my apologies for my poor english. I've already looked everywhere to find this piece of info by myself, now I humbly come in seek of help from the gurus on this board - please help this lowly desperate developer :) The million-dollar question is: is it possible to display in a page (with Response.Write() for instance) the original HTTP get/post command the browser used to open it? For example, if I connect to my local server via telnet and issue a "GET /default.aspx" command, I need the page to output this exact command so that the end user can see what was requested. Thanks a lot in advance! Unix is user-friendly. It's just picky about its friends!
I can also hear this high pitched noise, it's even more evident when you put the computer to sleep (not hibernate). Try that with your case open and it should be easier to isolate.
