I'm loving my new monitor arm; to wit: The Workrite Poise™ monitor arm http://www.workriteergo.com/products/monitor-arms/poise-single/ I swing that pupy around all day long. Basically, my 10 lb, 4K, IPS, 60 Hz monitor just floats in the air. Usually, it's swung Portrait. It's super easy to move closer or farther away. Before, I had to move my head, not my monitor. Now I stay reclined, relaxed. Cheaper ( < $200 ) monitor arms can't hold their position; people use clamps to keep them in place. Also, I'm enjoying my new thumb drive; to wit: 128 Gig SanDisk Extreme PRO USB 3.0 Flash Drive Read Up To 260MB/s, Write Up To 240MB/s http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Extreme-Flash-Drive-SDCZ88-128G-G46/dp/B00HR7FWUC It's 128 gigabytes. Top speed is over 2 giga bits per second, 60 times faster than the USB 2.0 limit. My two·year·old, 256 Gig SSD hits 6 giga bits per second. FYI, there is only ·one· way to change the font faces Windows 8 uses; to wit: ; From Jeff-Relf.Me/Win_8_.REG.TXT [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts] "MS Shell Dlg 2 (TrueType)"="" "MS Shell Dlg (TrueType)"="" "Tahoma (TrueType)"="" "Tahoma Bold (TrueType)"="" "Segoe UI Italic (TrueType)"="" "Segoe UI Semilight (TrueType)"="" "Segoe UI Semilight Italic (TrueType)"="" "Segoe UI Bold Italic (TrueType)"="" "Segoe UI Semibold Italic (TrueType)"="" "Segoe UI Bold (TrueType)"="" "Segoe Script (TrueType)"="" "Segoe UI Light Italic (TrueType)"="" "Segoe UI (TrueType)"="" "Segoe UI Semibold (TrueType)"="" "Segoe Print (TrueType)"="" "Segoe UI Light (TrueType)"="" "Segoe Print Bold (TrueType)"="" "Segoe Script Bold (TrueType)"="" "Arial Italic (TrueType)"="" "Arial Black (TrueType)"="" "Arial Bold (TrueType)"="" "Arial (TrueType)"="" "Arial Bold Italic (TrueType)"="" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\FontSubstitutes] "MS Shell Dlg 2"="DejaVu LGC Sans Mono" "MS Shell Dlg"="DejaVu LGC Sans Mono" "Tahoma"="DejaVu LGC Sans Mono" "Tahoma Bold"="DejaVu LGC Sans Mono" "Segoe UI Italic"="DejaVu LGC Sans Mono" "Segoe UI Semilight"="DejaVu LGC Sans Mono" "Segoe UI Semilight Italic"="DejaVu LGC Sans Mono" "Segoe UI Bold Italic"="DejaVu LGC Sans Mono" "Segoe UI Semibold Italic"="DejaVu LGC Sans Mono" "Segoe UI Bold"="DejaVu LGC Sans Mono" "Segoe Script"="DejaVu LGC Sans Mono" "Segoe UI Light Italic"="DejaVu LGC Sans Mono" "Segoe UI"="DejaVu LGC Sans Mono" "Segoe UI Semibold"="DejaVu LGC Sans Mono" "Segoe Print"="DejaVu LGC Sans Mono" "Segoe UI Light"="DejaVu LGC Sans Mono" "Segoe Print Bold"="DejaVu LGC Sans Mono" "Segoe Script Bold"="DejaVu LGC Sans Mono" "Arial Italic"="DejaVu LGC Sans Mono" "Arial Black"="DejaVu LGC Sans Mono" "Arial Bold"="DejaVu LGC Sans Mono" "Arial"="DejaVu LGC Sans Mono" "Arial Bold Italic"="DejaVu LGC Sans Mono"
