The Number of prongs on the USB Plug

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on March 1, 2006 - 9:39pm

Perhaps this has been mentioned before...but I didn't see it at first glance..

On the splash screen for the apps, it shows a picture of a USB plug; on it, there are 6 metal strips, prongs, connectors, whatever you wanna call 'ems. IT DRIVES ME CRAZY. In real life, on a USB plug, there are 4, not 6.

I wouldn't have mentioned this, except today, i realized enough was enough, i had to say something about it. Blum

Portable "ThoughtManager Desktop"

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on March 1, 2006 - 8:11pm

Not sure if this is the right place to post, but I believe I've made "ThoughtManager Desktop" a portable app by copying over the two DLLs it requires to run (and also setting a local file as it's "output" directory...

To make your copy portable, copy the "ThoughtManager Desktop" folder from "Program Files" to your USB stick. Then search for the following two DLLs and place them in the same folder as the APP:

TM_FileIO.dll
TMRunning.dll

Then be sure to change your target directory in your preferences and you should be up and running!

Sorry, no syncing, of course, but you can manually export and import Palm ThoughtManager files, so that's still useful.

Howdy all,

I just wanted to drop a quick note in the forums as an update. I've chatted with a couple people about what's been up. I had mentioned I was a bit under the weather a while ago. I wound up sick for about 3 weeks and only managed to kick it recently. I should be fine now, but I have some followup tests just to be sure.

I also mentioned that there was an illness in my family that I was going to be away for. My grandmother had heart failure and was hospitalized last week and I had gone to CT to be with her. She passed away on Friday night. The funeral was yesterday. I'm just thankful that we were with her and she didn't go alone.

I am not very good at writing long posts so I will keep this one short. It will consist of two parts, a confession (if you can call it that) and a status report.

The Confession

I'm 15 years old. Now this may not seem like a problem but some communities just don't like it so I thought I'd mention it before I become a bit of a 'feature' round here.

Status Report

Here we go on the status report

Program Name - Version - Features - Date

Profile Sync - 1.2 - Adds cache options - Next two weeks
PortaLog - 2.0 - Adds email facility - Next month or so (whenever nm35 can help)
Portable Firefox with Sync - 1.0 - Complete re-design - Next week
