Re: Tips and Tricks
A very simple one most don't know about is holding the shift or ctrl keys when selecting multiple items/files at once.
Anyway, here's a master list of keyboard shortcuts:

But one of the best tips is to ditch Internet Explorer & go with FireFox or Chrome, and check out the add-ons.

Re: Tips and Tricks
I need to replace a type E11 based bulb in a ceiling fan. I tried LEDS and they died within a week (started flickering). Guess I'll have to go back to halogens. Or change the socket size somehow.

Re: Tips and Tricks
is it on some sort of dimmer control? The bulb certainly doesn't like something... especially if some sort of phase cutting is happening. (??)

Some led's don't play well with vibrations from a fan.

Re: Tips and Tricks
The reviews on Amazon were terrible saying that they only lasted a few days. But there are none at Home Depot or anywhere else I could find so I tried these terrible ones off of Amazon. There is no such thing as an LED that fits that size with any halfway decent reviews. So back to halogens I go.
