Are you having trouble when you try to highlight text? You know, when you put your cursor at the point where you want to start highlighting (selecting) the text and drag it across?
Try this, then: put your cursor where you want to start selecting, hold down your SHIFT key and use your up / down arrow keys on your keyboard. You'll find when you hold down an arrow that the text scrolls (and highlights) at a much more manageable rate.
Oh, if the section is really big, tap your Page Up and Page Down keys till you get close to where you need to stop.
Windows Sidebar Weather Gadgets
I'll be the first to admit it - when Microsoft announced that part of its Vista operating system was going to be a sidebar with "gadgets", I was skeptical. After all, Yahoo already offered something similar called "widgets", and the last thing that I wanted was something else cluttering up my desktop. As I explored the sidebar, however, and discovered that not only can you undock the gadgets from the sidebar and move them to wherever you want on your desktop, as well as close the sidebar itself while leaving the gadgets open, I became a fan.
One of the gadgets that lives on my desktop is a weather gadget, showing current conditions and a three-day forecast. So I thought that I'd offer overviews of five weather gadgets.
