Spy Journal 3.0 Filtering the web for you

Apparently the www.microsoft.com website is completely run on Windows 2008 servers now - and they are still only in Beta 3.

If you have a OneNote notebook on SharePoint with some of these errors:

The Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder is a freeware utility that retrieves your Product Key (cd key) used to install windows from your registry. It has the options to copy the key to clipboard, save it to a text file, or print it for safekeeping. It works on Windows 95, 98, ME, 2000, XP, Server 2003, Windows Vista, Office XP, Office 2003, and Office 2007.
