At the moment im using a usb stick to unlock my computer when it boots up, but wondering if its possible to scan a fingerprint instead?
If not, do you know any disk encryption software that will allow this??
Thanks in advance!

Brian H asked:
I would like to know a good Visual Studio 2005 Express tutorial and reference. Please, i want something concrete and in-depth, not some stupid site that shows me how to make a program saying “hello world!”. I would appreciate multiple sites, but I really just want to learn how use and combine Visual Studio 2005 Express as a whole. You see, a few months ago I downloaded all the Express versions of Visual Studio’s programs, and now, they’re just sitting there with nothing for me to do with them. Now, come on, let’s admit it, that’s a lot of wasted hard drive space, and, frankly, if I don’t get an answer, I’,m going to start deleting things. I don’t care how valuable an asset it is! It’s wasting my precious hard drive space! And don’t say MSDN! They have S*** for tutorials! I need something that’s understandable to the complete noob (essentially, I am)! Please, if anyone knows of such a site, please, DO TELL!

Windows Vista?
15christigmc asked:
I just broke my laptop so I’m very likely going to need to buy a new one. I’ve been searching for a new one and they all have Windows Vista. My brother keeps telling me don’t buy a computer with Windows VIsta because they ****.
I would just like to know, what is so bad about Windows Vista?
If Windows Vista is as bad as my brother is telling me, should I wait?
I can’t seem to find one that has XP in it, except for Macs. They all have Vista.
I need the computer for Internet (like research and filling out forms), writing, and making cheap digital art.
Wasn’t just my brother telling me. His friend’s dad, who has a career in computers told me the same thing.
