Smart Tech Tips

I am a person who uses two operating systems every day. My desktop is a Mac and my laptop is PC. Unlike your typical fanboys I appreciate both and am not partial to either one. I see them as tools to get a job done. There are things on each OS that I wish the other one had. One such item is a desktop background rotators for Windows. OSX has one built in while only Windows 7 will start having one. For everyone using Vista or below, one solution is WallPapa. While there are many to choose from, you should only use one that takes little system resources and easy to configure.

This program is only 2MB and takes up very little system resources as it sits in the background.

You can have it change wallpaper upon startup or at a time interval of your choosing. I place all the pictures I want to use in my rotation and point the program to that directory. It is one of those great set it and forget it kind of programs.
