I go through phases in regards to gaming with my Pocket PC. I'll latch onto a game and then play it till I beat it, or till I hard reset / switch devices, and then not play it ever again. Or I'll remember it a year later, reload it, and have fun once more. Some of you, I assume, are probably on extreme ends of the gaming spectrum (i.e. it's all you do vs. you never play games on your PPC), and some of you may just know about the games built in. So as Summer fast approaches in the northern hemisphere and diversions are needed for long car rides to vacation spots (and as winter approaches southern hemisphere readers who need something to play indoors), I figured a post on our favorite (all-time and/or current) games may be in order! I'll even start it off.
I've been playing (and am a bit addicted to) Spb Brain Evolution. Brain Evolution is a brain trainer-type program (others include Mastersoft's Brain School) that requires you to complete mini-games in order to strengthen your mind's problem solving abilities. Perhaps because I'm a cognitive psychologist-in-training specializing in decision making (an area fairly close to problem solving in some ways), I find the idea interesting and challenging. If you haven't tried Brain Evolution, you can download a trial from Spb's site. For what it's worth, in the past year my "favorite games" have also included Spb's Air Islands, and Mastersoft's Sudoku! Now it's your turn - do share!

http://www.petri.co.il/forcibly_removing_active_directoy_from_dc.htm
Daniel Petri has published a great write-up on forcily removing AD from a DC using dcpromo. If I had had this informtion about 2 weeks ago, I would have gotten more sleep during the migration! I was forced to use ntdsutil to transfer all AD roles to the DC in question, then delete out all other DCs in the domain. Ugh. Any AD techies out there, enjoy.

As a Cleveland sports fan, I'm shocked. This just doesn't happen to Cleveland - we always lose. How we won this time is beyond me, but I'm not unhappy with it. Now on to the Spurs, who (again) are supposed to kill us. I'm happy with the conference, but I'd be even more happy if the Spurs and Cavs go to game 5 and beyond!

"Some non-touchscreen Windows Mobile devices ship with a set of security policies that prevents developers from adding their own codesigning certificates. I don't know of any touchscreen devices that ship like that - it's possible to configure those devices to be locked down but none ship like that by default as far as I know. For some of these devices, it's possible to tweak the security policies via supported methods so you can install development certs,debug, and develop privileged applications. Internally we call this "the user is manager" meaning that the user has the ability to freely modify any software setting on the phone. In this post I'll describe how to figure out the security policies on your device and how to figure out if you are "application locked" or not."
One of those wonderful features of non-touchscreen windows mobile devices (Remember, we used to call those "Smartphones") is the ability for OEMs to really lock down the phone from outside software vendors. This Windows Moble Team Blog post talks a bit about this locking system and how Developers can deal with it in their own applications.
