MojoPac virtual desktop goes free

MojoPacPortable applications are great. Throw a word processor, anti-virus application, and a web browser on a flash drive and it's kind of like you have your desktop with you wherever you go. But MojoPac goes one step further. It lets you save all of your WIndows XP settings and applications on a flash drive so that you can use the same desktop on any computer. If you shuffle from one PC to another around the house or office, or if you need access to all your applications on vacation MojoPac could make life a lot simpler.

Now MojoPac has released the basic version of its software for free (PDF link). The free version of MojoPac lets you carry files, applications, and settings on any USB 2.0 drive, including an iPod or other portable music player.

If you want technical support, that'll cost you $50, and there's an enterprise version available as well with a whole slew of extra features like VPN support and a backup utility. MojoPac only runs on Windows XP systems, although Vista support is coming soon.

Graveyard Shift - zombie-busting Time Waster

With Halloween fast approaching, it's a great time to get in some practice defending your territory against zombies. In Graveyard Shift, you take aim at zombies and other creepy-crawlies, blasting them into splatters of cartoony green guts. It's a casual first-person shooter, and it's very easy to get the hang of - use the mouse to aim, click to fire.
