An amazing logic game and memory training tool in one! Flip the face-down mosaic tiles and remember the pattern on the other side. When you find two similar patterns, you score points.

The smart logic game Twice combines the main principles of a classic game: an attractive appearance, popular and simple rules and a variety of game modes. Its rules are well known: you have to flip the face-down tiles in the puzzle one by one and remember the pattern on the other side. When you flip two identical tiles, you score points. To complete the level you have to find all of the pairs. Twice has three game modes so you can pick the game that suits your tastes – race against time, limited number of attempts or no limits at all. Just choose one of them and you will not be able to stop playing! The magical graphics and traditional Oriental music add a mysterious charm to this game.

Twice – a perfect realization of simplicity and genius.

Game features:

- Colourful Oriental style graphics
- Pleasant, relaxing music
- Three game modes for all tastes
- Excellent memory training tool
- Captivating gameplay

There’s nothing better than running Windows on a Mac. If your Windows flavored Virtual Machine (VM) gets bitten by a nasty Windows malware peace, dust it and restart with a backed up VM copy in minutes. Since many application types can be found on the Mac easily today, there is less and less reason to run Windows. However, with industry specific applications and a few better-on-Windows programs, such as QuickBooks, a VM is still needed from time to time. Many Mac users have gone with Parallels Desktop and VMWare’s Fusion. With a price tag nearing $100, only the serious user will opt to purchase either fine VM product. Watch out, though, because now the company that was a large part of creating the World Wide Web with millions of web servers running on its hardware, Sun Microsystems has unveiled VirtualBox. The open source VM project Sun hopes will drive many to use its new product could just be the next must have VM for Mac users.

VirtualBox runs many x86 operating systems (guest OS) on x86 computers (host OS). Guest operating systems VirtualBox can run include, but not limited to, Windows (NT 4.0, 2000, XP, Server 2003, Vista), DOS, Windows 3.x (on top of DOS), Linux (2.4 and 2.6), as well as OpenBSD.

Still under development, VirtualBox sits at version 1.6.2 and is actively updated. Sun has asked both developers and users to download its product and give it a try as well for developers to help out with coding. More coders means more features and hopefully more stability. More users will help in these two areas as well since feedback is always a much needed input for developers.

VirtualBox shares many of the same features as VMWare and Parallel’s offerings such as folder sharing, USB device use, and easy guest OS install from an ISO image.

Any Intel or AMD processor will run VirtualBox according to Sun. Most guest OS’s will need at least 512 MB of RAM with 30 MB of hard drive space need for VirtualBox itself. If you’re willing and daring (and just plain cheap), download VirtualBox today.

You know, everyone has an opinion about Microsoft and it’s operating system, Windows. Be it Experience (the official name of XP) or Vista (the unofficial name: this millenniums Millennium Edition), you’re sure to find someone that will be more than willing to pick up a gallon of gas and pour it all over their monitor and strike a match to it. But I know, at nearly $5 a gallon, what a waste. No worries, mate, you can just install NAPALM and light your desktop on fire. For free.

“FireStarter” created NAPALM in response to the Linux desktop burner, Compiz Fire (YouTube link). FireStarter states that they will continue to develop the fun desktop burner if “interest is manifested” as according to the download page. There’s a community page and all to start that manifest under.

Sorry all you DOS-based Windows users with 9’s in the name (or a proper noun), but you’re out cold as this only runs on true 32-bit OSs by Redmond. You, unfortunately, will have to waste $5.
