I'd take a look at the free firewall software from Sophos (Sophos XG Firewall Home Edition). You can load that onto a low-power/fanless PC. Pair that with OpenDNS (also free), and it make for a very secure solution.
You could also look at some of the next-generation firewall appliances out there, but that typically requires spending more and sometimes a subscription is required.
Although everyone seems to be doing it these days, videos in web pages shouldn't autoplay by default. Or at least there should be a consistent, user-friendly way to disable it.
WD means "water displacer", not lubricant. Should have used a lubricant, not a water displacer. I like silicone products for the engine top, but sometimes I'll just use a general purpose grease.
WD40 is both a water displacer and a lubricant, if only a light-duty one. If the manufacturer and Wikipedia are to be believed...
WD-40 is the trademark name of a lubricant, penetrating oil and water-displacing spray.
WD-40's main ingredients, according to U.S. Material Safety Data Sheet information, are: 51% Stoddard solvent 25% liquefied petroleum gas (presumably as a propellant; carbon dioxide is now used instead to reduce WD-40's considerable flammability) 15+% mineral oil (light lubricating oil) 10-% inert ingredients
Myth: WD-40 Multi-Use Product is not really a lubricant. Fact: While the “W-D” in WD-40 stands for Water Displacement, WD-40 Multi-Use Product is a unique, special blend of lubricants. The product’s formulation also contains anti-corrosion agents and ingredients for penetration, water displacement and soil removal.
In my experience, there has been a huge difference between counterfeit and the real thing. We bought some single and dual-port T1 cards from a large vendor in New England which were marketed as used but tested. The counterfeit cards worked about 20% of the time. The cards were cheaply made- example: the screw head would pop off if you tightened it too much.
I would speculate that these cards didn't come from a factory already manufacturing genuine parts, but the attention to detail on the counterfeit cards was quite astounding- stickers, markings on the PCB, etc.
The vendor eventually replaced the cards with more counterfeit cards, then finally with Cisco authorized refurbished cards.

If the prediction from these apps are as accurate as the predictions from Google search, I want no part of it.
XP Embedded goes EOL in early 2016
Most ATMs don't run XP Embedded (which seems counter-intuitive) - they actually run a heavily-customized version of XP Pro.

I built a monitor stand and keyboard tray for my treadmill so I can burn calories while surfing slashdot. It's somewhat similar to this: http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/ol-images/la/uploads/10_07walkstation.jpg
