When Brandon Crisp’s parents confiscated his Xbox 360 on October 13, he decided to pack up and run away… probably so he could play some more Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare somewhere, like a friend’s house. But it’s been over two weeks now, long enough for any joke to be old, and the $25,000 (Canadian) reward offered by his parents has still not uncovered any information on the whereabouts of the boy. Hearing of this news, Microsoft has stepped in and offered to match the reward offered by his parents.
Microsoft stated, "Like everyone, we are deeply worried about the disappearance of Brandon Crisp. Law enforcement has contacted Microsoft about this matter and we are co-operating fully with them. We are unable to comment further on the nature of our co-operation because of the ongoing investigation."

Some time ago I was contacted by a nice guy in the US. He asked me whether I would be interested in building a psp mod for his partner. She has limited use of one of her hands and as such can’t use a psp, but she can however use a SNES controller perfectly (I’ve seen it, its quite a talent). So he asked if I would be able to add a SNES controller to a PSP for her.
Well at long last here it is.

We asked him how Office Web applications complement Office, and what this will mean for people who use Office applications.

If you want to use a keyboard that was manufactured some time ago before Windows was honored with its own key on most keyboards, you can actually still add Windows key functionality to it. These steps don’t call for you to take your keyboard apart or cut any holes in it because no hardware modification is needed.* The caveat: you’ll need to sacrifice an existing key to the keyboard gods if you want Windows key functionality. The program that performs the sacrifice? It’s a nifty application called KeyTweak.
