I found a great one a few minutes ago: ZoomIt

Quote

ZoomIt is screen zoom and annotation tool for technical presentations that include application demonstrations. ZoomIt runs unobtrusively in the tray and activates with customizable hotkeys to zoom in on an area of the screen, move around while zoomed, and draw on the zoomed image. I wrote ZoomIt to fit my specific needs and use it in all my presentations.

ZoomIt works on all versions of Windows and you can use pen input for ZoomIt drawing on tablet PCs.

Don't think Divx is up there yet.

Most important codec I think, you'll probably need it at least once a year which means its always good to have :hrmm:

I'm so used to using winamp that I don't want to start using any other media players. And divx is the only codec I really need I think, I cant remeber downloading any others so it's not like I need to use VLC player for anything really (not that I know of!)  :lol:

How about yes?

There's plenty of Mac users at FSW. You're a blatant example proving that Micro$oft truly has monopolized the industry. :hrmm:
