    3. BETTER CLIPBOARD FOR WINDOWS Freeware WINDOWS XP (all versions) If you have ever found yourself pasting the same text or image into an email, a web forum, web mail, document or other file, you are already painfully aware of the limitations of the Windows Clipboard. As most of you know, you can only copy one item at a time to the Windows Clipboard. When you copy or cut a new item, the old item is over-written. That is probably why, clipboard-extender programs have always been in high-demand and why there are so many of them. As time goes by, fewer and fewer of these clipboard-extenders remain free. So when EB found this free one, we jumped on it (you know, being the thrifty, poor folks we are). And you can count on us to share with you any of the goodies we find and ultimately use. So, we're happy to share with those of you who are constantly copying & pasting the same items (like signatures, an image file, lines of texts, famous quotes, etc.) over and over again. Ditto will save you time. The author of Ditto does not suffer from the same urge to bloviate as we do. I guess he doesn't like to pontificate either. Too bad :) Here's what he has to say about his own program "Ditto": "Ditto is an extension to the standard windows clipboard. It saves each item placed on the clipboard allowing you access to any of those items at a later time. Ditto allows you to save any type of information that can be put on the clipboard, text, images, html, custom formats, ....." Ditto uses a small database to store clips (things you've pasted on the clipboard) and then allows you to access anything you've stored visually by showing you thumbnails of each item it stores in its database. http://ditto-cp.sourceforge.net/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Got a BIG monitor and want a BIGGER task bar? http://thundercloud.net/infoave/answers/big-taskbar.htm ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ How To Clean Install Windows Vista Using The Windows Vista Upgrade DVD (Windows XP and Windows Vista Microsoft says you cannot use the upgrade version of Windows Vista (DVD) to clean install Windows Vista on a formatted (clean) hard drive.
