Reblog: What is the Best Way to Apply Thermal Compound? | Hardware Secrets
We already explained how the thermal compound (a.k.a. thermal grease or thermal paste) works and a “how-to-apply-it” in our How to Correctly Apply Thermal Grease tutorial. Now, we will try seven different ways of applying it, testing each way, and comparing the cooling performance. Let's see if what we always mention - that less thermal compound is better than more - is true.
Each different method is presented in three pictures, one of the thermal compound applied to the CPU before installing the cooler, one of the CPU after the test with the cooler removed, and one of the base of the cooler after the test.
A nice article with some real test about how to apply thermal compund.

Reblog: .NET 4.0 and System.Threading.Tasks | CodeThinked
In the soon-to-be-released .NET 4.0 framework and Visual Studio 2010 we are going to get a plethora of new tools to help us write better multi-threaded applications. One of these tools is a new namespace within the System.Threading namespace which is called "Tasks". The Tasks in System.Threading.Tasks namespace are a method of fine grained parallelism, similar to creating and using threads, but they have a few key differences...
An interesting article about .Net 4.0 new Task class vs Thread and threading (multithread, threadpool, etc...)
