Very interesting: Install AndroVM in VMware Player/Workstation – YouTube.
The successor is Genymotion “the faster Android emulator”, and seems to have an easier installation path: Run Android on Your Desktop With Genymotion Android Emulator.
One of the drawbacks of going native: the Delphi for Android compiler currently only generates ARM Android code, otherwise this would be a great way to test your apps.
But it works fine if you use Java, Oxygene for Java or MonoDroid: much faster than the emulator (which you cannot run in a VM at all).
There seems to be a way to install ARM translation, so I need to check that out: android – How to install google play service in the genymotion (ubuntu 13.04) .Currently it doesn’t have drag and drop suport – Stack Overflow.

Never noticed this file before until I got some trouble with several systems sharing parts of a roaming profile.
The content of my %USERPROFILE%\ntuser.ini file is this:
[General]
ExclusionList=AppData\Local;AppData\LocalLow;$Recycle.Bin;Tracing;PrivacIE
[ProfileLoadType]
LastUploadState=Complete
[[The ntuser.ini file is used to set up the user roaming profile components that are not copied to the server.]]
http://www.comptechdoc.org/os/windows/win2k/win2kusers.html
The ExclusionList is for excluding directories in roaming profiles.
The same info is also found here…
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
ExcludeProfileDirsSystem tool may not correctly display the user profile size in Windows

This reminds me about mapping the CapsLock to Windows-key on old Lenovo keyboard (you can do that [Wayback/Archive] with ReMapKey from Microsoft, the [Wayback/Archive] slightly more convoluted open source SharpKeys, or a AutoHotKey script), and a [Wayback] Mac equivalent:
MacOS:
I like to have a second Control key instead of Caps Lock.
In OS X, go to System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Keyboard -> Modifier Keys… and change or turn off Caps Lock, Control, Option and Command.
For more radical key remapping in OS X, use KeyRemap4MacBook. Despite the name, it works on non-Macbook machines, too.
…
ChromeBook:
If you miss having the Caps Lock button on your #Chromebook, you can turn the Search button into a Caps Lock button in a couple steps: find “Keyboard Settings” under the “Settings” menu, and select “Caps Lock” under the “Search” drop-down menu.
Or you can use this quick link on your Chromebook: chrome://settings/keyboard-overlay
Chromebook has [Wayback/Archive] quite some different keys than a Windows keyboard.
Ben Ostrowsky has a nice post with an SVG drawing of the [Wayback/Archive] Chromebook keyboard layout.

Thanks Raymond Chen for suggesting about [WayBack] COMPACT.EXE to set NTFS compression flags for files, directories or volumes:
The command-line tool for this is COMPACT.EXE. Type compact /? for usage information.
Example to recursively compress D:\backup:
compact /C /S /A D:\backup\*.*

Just append -O and -v to a command-line:
nmap -O -v ip-address
Note you need administrative privileges for this on Mac OS X, so there you run it like this:
sudo nmap -O -v ip-address
If you want to scan more than the default 1000 TCP ports, then use the -p- switch:
sudo nmap -O -v -p- ip-address
For more info about the finger printing algorithms used by nmap:

ForNeVeR now maintains ManagedSpy, see his answer on StackOverflow
BTW, I’ve cloned the original ManagedSpy source code and maintaining the code today (for example, ported it to .NET4).
See project on GitHub.

You don’t want to fully open your Mac to always install applications, so I’m glad that OSXDaily provided multiple workarounds:
Fix the “App can’t be opened because it is from an unidentified developer” Error in Mac OS X.
I needed it to install the nmap binary for OS X.
