Xoxide Going Out Of Business

September 11, 2009, 14:28(EDT) By Eric (a.k.a. TweakHound)

Xoxide has been a source of PC modding equipment for years. It is sad to see them go. They do have an “everything must go” sale going on.
Check out the goodbye message and look for some bargains.
***Important*** – edit 20 September, 2009
According to this post in their forums, Xoxide has been sold. The site is back to looking like it was pre-sale. Some folks are worried about if / when they will get what they bought under the sale. See:
Xoxide Forums

(thanks to Archangel for the heads up)

Tweak Guides Updated

June 4, 2009, 15:44(EDT) By Eric (a.k.a. TweakHound)

I’ve spent the last few weeks updating the following guides in preparation for Windows 7 guides. There has been a lot of cleanup, clarifications, and several additions. As the name intimates the XP guide will not be revised again. The Vista guide may follow the same fate. I’ve never been shy about the fact that I did not like Vista. Those who are using Windows 7 know that it will probably leave Vista as just a bad memory. Once 7 comes out I will not have any Vista computers left (only 1 left now). At any rate, I hope you enjoy these guides and that they may be of some help to you.
