Occasionally I carry the Dell that my office provided me as well. Yes -- that's right. Sometimes I'm using up three security bins at the airport just for the hardware.br /divbr /For the most part I've found that the mac-equivalent applications a [read]. Posted: Wed, Mar 3rd '10 |

When Hardware oddities abound you improvise!
Scott Singleton pnbsp;/p
pI spent the week tweaking my presentation for SharePoint Saturday in New York, including timing my entire presentation, testing the presentation on a low resolution monitor (read my 17rdquo; Digital TV on my desk) and even working with a nifty remote control iPhone Application that let me read my slide deck notes and track my time./p

Visual Studio Macros for working with GUIDs in XML
Scott Singleton pOne of the biggest time drains I experience when creating SharePoint solutions is the constant creation of new GUIDs, especially when creating site columns (Fields).nbsp; Each time I wanted to create anbsp; new field I would typically copy the previous line and make the appropriate changes./p
