Do you have a large monitor? Ever wished you could save time by not having to move your mouse as much around the screen? Wraparound is a new tool for Mac OS X that lets users drag the cursor off to a screen edge and make it show up on the opposite edge. For example, if the user drags the cursor all the way to the left, it will show up on the right edge.
Gaming consoles are already a symbol of sedentary life, but some still require users to get up and insert their games into the DVD tray in order to be able to sit down for the next few hours.

Many of us appreciate, even rely upon the hardcore techies of the hacking community to deliver the tweaks and mods that circumvent the limitations and help us realize the true potential of the devices we own. Whether it's rooting the HTC Desire or jailbreaking the iPad 2 (or hacking the PS3, which can land you in a whole lot of trouble if you aren't careful), no sooner are the firmware versions or devices released than the developers are beavering away looking for exploits in the system.
Back in the DVD golden age, I can remember having a difficult decision to make, regarding DVDs of course and their dreaded players. DVDs were brand new tech (I'm showing my age again, aren't I?) and wanting to be at the front of the technological curve, I wanted to get my hands on a DVD player.
