Backing up your registry.

Some of our readers found the registry edit tweaks a little too dicey and thus avoided them completely. Consequently, I've decided to make a post here, explaining how you can backup your entire windows registry. This helps when you screw things up while editing your windows registry.
All you do then to revert to your original settings is double click the backup file!
So lets get going..

1. Head over to the "Run" menu. Do (the microsoft button)+r or Start>Run.
2. Enter "regedit" in the text field and hit enter to fire up Windows Registry editor.
3. On the left pane, navigate upwards, right to the top and highlight "My computer"
4. Then click "File" and "Export..." in the drop-down menu.
5. Now you've got to save your backup file anywhere on your computer with any name you wish. I recommend you to name it as "Registry Backup 29_07_2008" or something like that so you know what the file is and when the backup was made.
6. Click "Save" once you've selected your desired destination.
A .reg (Registration file) of approximately 50mb is created.

Your now done with making your backup!

After editing your registry while trying tweaks on this site or any other site, in case things do not go as planned, just come back to this file and double click it!
You will be asked if you're sure you want to add the information to your registry. Click Yes your done!

So now you can try out the registry edit-related tweaks here without fear!
Enjoy the site! :)

iPhone :Is it really worth it.

Amidst great enthusiasm and long wait the iPhone was launched yesterday in India.But the killing truth is its price that is 31k(720$) for 8gb variant and 36k(837$) for 16gb variant which is three times the price of iPhone cost in US.This has severely deterred hopes of many individuals wanting to buy the new iPhone.Three times the price !!!! thats obviously too much.So high is the price that many banks have offered loan schemes to buy the gadget.Considering the features you consider it a good purchase but when u consider that even the new version has basic feature lacking like mail forwarding,contact search etc.First day saw over 200 bookings which may see an increase in few days.But for that the price needs to be subsidized so that it can match the prices in other counterparts.For this price you may geta more advanced gadget than this one.But still the ones liking its style and design have gone forward to buy it inspite of its price.

My verdict:
Ditch the iPhone and buy yourself a new laptop!!
