After a couple hours... The UWN-PC is now automated, thanks to some macro making!

It now runs launch, the .exe macro, showing a screen that says that it will launch in 45 seconds, then launch the nf app, go to second monitor (RCA Out, right screen), and input my ID, and launch the program...

It also restarts (restart.bat) every day at midnight!
Noticed the streams been offline the last several nights, has this been discontinued?

That is Dell's own dock program that comes with all of their home computers.  :yes:

Dell has gotten *better* about shipping systems with minimum crapware but I always do a fresh install anyway.

I was surprised when I got my new dell desktop in December that there was way less crap-ware than what came with my laptop in 2009. They have somewhat :club: gotten "better".

Here's one of the Macs from the Vision studio. They all have the same background. Mr. Town, the teacher of the class, loves movies and directors like Quinton Tarantino and Alfred Hitchcock... so each of the computers is named after a director. This particular one is named "Spike".

My dell ultra sharp 20" has a swivel stand, so I took this one in portrait mode.

Here we go again...  :rolleyes:  I made this myself.

I also made this toolbar wallpaper. It doesn't seem to work on IE 7 and 8's toolbar, just the Windows toolbar in XP.

I like your wallpaper. I'm obsessed with traffic lights and road signs too.
