top tips for windows
1) autoit is an automatic scripting language can make macros repeating tasks and windows configurations easy http://www.ehow.com/how_12211912_make-autoit-follow-movements.html
2) net diag is a command to make sure all computers in a network can communicate with each other
3) window reliability monitor on windows vista machines and higher arrange event logs errors and see what makes it easier to see root causes.

4) the cmd prompt is a part of the system path so all you have try to do is put cmd.exe into the file browser like so http://youtu.be/yWELwtpyYi8
5) the following link shows how it is possible to remotely use the command prompt if another computer. The command ipconfig /flushdns can be sent to multiple computers using a pipe command from net view | http://ss64.com/nt/winrm.htm
6) power gui is a wizard for PowerShell point and click commandlets. This used to be produced by quest software until dell bought them http://en.community.dell.com/techcenter/powergui/
7) internet connections can be accessed using netsh http://youtu.be/Og7zlmTQH2U
also opendns can be used for accessing the web more securely http://youtu.be/L-C-LpxQnKc opendns is now owned by cisco https://www.opendns.com/ also Norton makes a good dns but I would recommend using it as the secondary using opendns primary
https://dns.norton.com/
8) www.techbargains.com is the best price comparison / deal alert website I've found
9) Kaspersky id my current favorite paid antivirus while avast is my favorite free. Avast bought avg. Bitdefender came in second. Malwarebytes and super antispyware are good scanners.
10) revo uninstaller portable free is a good uninstaller picking up traces left behind after the regular uninstaller is finished
11) Google chrome remote desktop id the best secure VPN software which is free
12) advanced system care by iobit is good software but hopefully they make a portable version. Good for getting a slow computer better
13) secunia psi is the best bulk update software for ngo and home use
techzilla gives more good tips http://revision3.com/tekzilla/
packetstormsecurity.com and hitb.org and securitymagazine.com are amongst the best security news
www.betanews.com and cnet.com and news.yahoo.com/tech are amongst the best for general computing news
spice works is a good community with a great script repository and q and a.
pcqanda.org and quota are amongst the best q and a sites.

Tacking in the wind
In a high school physics class I made a Styrofoam board with golf ball (the type with the holes) wheels. I made the mistake of cutting the board thinking that mass would slow down the board. However I learned a bigger board would make the board less likely to be experience lift which needs to be corrected by more intensive gravity.
Supplies
Styrofoam board 
Then you put the golf balls on dowels ducked taped to the bottom of the Styrofoam board. Then put a dowel in the middle of the board and wrap the folder around the upward pointing dowel. To track, you point the folder so it is at an angle. For example to track to the left you would put the folder at 160 degree angle so it is pointing left. Be sure to cut the tabs off the folder or else that would prove unpredictable.

The ulimate hot dog cooker
In high school I got to design a hot dog cooker. I have learned a lot since then and here is how I would design it today. Ohm developed a horse shoe battery using two canisters, one tank containing hot and cold water. It would consist of two water bottles with a short garden hose between them. It would make a horse shoe shape. It would look like the following.
So The hot water would expand pushing the cold water up into the system where it could be heated by the heat lamp. Then it would fall when cooled and then encounter the hot water. The cold water is denser than the hot water so it pushes the hot water into the tube containing the hot dog. To initially make the water hot I would suggest a model based on the lettuce plant.
The plant family has been around a while and developed after many years of evolution for optimum survival. Imagine a mesh made out of coffee straws which is contained in milk shake drinking straws.
So what we have is a sheet of fake grass which collects the light and the coffee straws woven together in a mesh so that they are hooked around one another so that they are pulled in a diamond shape. The longer part of the diamond is to be pointed towards the outside parameter of the leaves. The leaves are to be shaped like the lettuce leaves with multiple branches extending from a central hub. The benefit of the diamonds is the strength. The benefit of shaping it after a lettuce leaf is that it is bent in the middle to represent reflection.
This way it is like the back to the future scene where the doctor tries to capture a bolt of lightening. However the current (duration) compensates for the intensity (voltage) of the electric circuit. The best material for the upper part of the leaf is the fake grass you can get at model train stores. Then you use the rubber cement to fasten the bottom of the fake grass sheets to the straws. Here is a hint: refigerate or chill the rubber cement to make it mire standy and wrap it around the straw and the fake grass. Do not allow the rubber cement to isolate the paper from the straw or it would work as an insulator. You can form as many circles out of straws as you want as long as they all connect to the bottle designated for the hot water. Good luck with any aspiring people wanting to do this for the science classes. May this inspire the next generation of photovoltaics and solar cells. Grass is green so it can absorb more energetic wavelengths produced by the sun such as red and yellow. Blue is a less active color and not included
