One of the neatest new features in Windows 7 Professional and above is XP Mode, but not all machines are capable of running it. Today we show you how to use VMware to run XP Mode on machines without Hardware Virtualization.
How does this work?
Even if your computer doesn’t have hardware virtualization, you can still install XP Mode but just cannot run it as you can’t run Virtual PC. Enter VMware Player. This free program lets you create and run virtual machines, whether or not you have hardware virtualization. And, it can directly import XP Mode so you can use that copy of XP for free. A couple features are different, but it’s still a great replacement since you otherwise couldn’t use it at all.

It’s far from the only one working on flexible OLED lighting, but it looks like ModisTech could be among the first to actually bring something to market, as its now announced that it will begin commercialization of its 150 x 150mm flexible OLED panels this year (seemingly ahead of its original 2011 schedule). Those will apparently be used for various indirect lighting applications including desk lamps and car lighting, and promise to provide a more natural light than LEDs while maintaining some of the same power savings. Still no word on any actual products using the OLED panels, unfortunately, but they will supposedly be inexpensive for companies to adopt (and very cheap to manufacture).

BatteryBar works on various versions of Windows, but my focus was on Windows 7 since that’s what I’m using at the moment. The Taskbar icon is both compact and informative, and even more details can be revealed if you click on the icon. After you’ve used the app for a while it will also be able to tell you exactly how many minutes you have left before you’re battery is fully drained.
If you really like BatteryBar you can always take a look at the “Pro” version that offers some additional features, including themes and the ability to quickly switch between power profiles (on Vista/Windows 7). How much does it cost? Between $1 and $10… basically whatever you feel the app is worth, but the “lifetime” license starts at $6. You can always tinker around with the 30-day trial if you want to play with the customizability and preferences that are only available in BatteryBar Pro.

There are plenty of video game-inspired cakes out there, but none of them were designed to look like an actual arcade machine. This masterpiece by Jet City Cakes features “the miniature red joystick, to the coin slots, to the teensy little ghosts, cherries and power pills on the playing field.”
The birthday cake was made for someone who simply goes by “Dad”, so if you stole this cake (you wouldnt steal a cake now, would you?) you could give it to your own father.

Google Maps may be nothing new, but using the maps for something other than directions is. The example above was created by graphic designer Beste Miray Dogan, who “showed that with a Google Map print out and a little ingenuity, you can make a custom envelop that pinpoints the exact location from which it was sent.”
There’s no template on her site, but with some trial and error I trust you’ll be able to master the mapenvelope in no time.
