Four Best Monitor Mounts

Ergotron LX Dual and Single Mounts

It’s hands down the best monitor arm I’ve used. You can easily move the monitors around if you want to try out a new layout or distance, rotate the monitors if you want to swap between portrait and landscape. I use them at home, I use them at the office. They’re well worth the money. – matthewdtwo


Four Best Monitor Mounts

Halter Dual LCD Monitor Stand

I use this at work. Good build quality, solid, lots of adjustment options, and cheap. Gets the job done without breaking the bank. – Cixelsyd


Four Best Monitor Mounts

UPLIFT Monitor Arm

The UPLIFT Monitor Arms offer some serious bang for their buck. $109 gets you a height-adjustable counterbalanced arm with a huge reach you can adjust by just grabbing the display, and an easily installed clamp mount. Rock solid construction as well. There’s also a dual version for slightly more ($159). – thsjb


Four Best Monitor Mounts

Monoprice 3-Way Desk Mount Bracket

The Monoprice 3way adjustable monitor stand. I had been looking for a monitor stand that ran under 100 bucks. This one fit the bill, and I think I paid a similar price to what it is now. Its not the prettiest, but it gets the job done and its not hard on the pocket book. – Julio Libre

Watch Citizenfour For Free Right Now

Watch Citizenfour For Free Right Now

Do you like spies? Do you like Academy Award-winning movies? Then you’ll love Citizenfour, the documentary about Edward Snowden that is now streaming online—legally—for free!

Directed by Laura Poitras, the film takes you behind the scenes of one of the biggest intelligence leaks in history. The title refers to the alias Snowden used when he first reached out to Poitras with a huge cache of top secret NSA documents, a detail that hints at exactly how close Poitras was to legendary whistleblower. And while Snowden himself remains a controversial figure, the documentary does an exquisite job telling a world-changing story. You should watch it right now at Channel 4.

A fascinating view into the US Air Force boneyards

A fascinating view into the US Air Force boneyards

You can zoom in this 48-megapixel image of the USAF boneyard in Tucson, Arizona—stitched from Bing Maps satellite images—and try to identify all those airplanes. Or you can watch this USAF documentary on how the US stockpiles thousands of planes in deserts around the country to keep the active fleet flying.*

Or you can do both.

* And in case the aliens invade us and we have to fight back.

Microsoft Now Lets You Download Windows 7 ISOs with a Valid License

Microsoft Now Lets You Download Windows 7 ISOs with a Valid License

If you don’t have your Windows 7 disc handy—but want to create a custom installation, run Windows from a USB drive, or just do a fresh install—you’ll need an ISO file of the disc. You used to be able to download them from Digital River’s servers, but those links no longer work. Now, Microsoft has a Software Recovery Center where you can download those ISOs for free.

This isn’t piracy, of course—you still need a valid Windows license to download the ISO and register Windows. If you purchased a retail version of Windows, enter the product key from the package. If you can’t find it, use a program like Magical Jelly Bean KeyFinder. Once Microsoft confirms your product key, you can download Windows and use the Windows 7 USB Download Tool to put it on a thumb drive.

If your computer came with Windows, however, it’s probably an OEM version, which will not work on Microsoft’s new site. Instead, if you want to reinstall Windows without the bloatware, you’ll probably need to borrow a disc from someone and use your product key when you resinstall.

Windows 8.1 users have always been able to download ISOs with Microsoft’s tool, which you can now get here.
