We know that many of you are waiting for the iPhone 3G unlock and we have good news for you. One of the iPhone Dev members, MuscleNerd did a live video demo 2 days ago, showing an iPhone 3G unlock procedure without rebooting the device. The iPhone was unlocked via a SSH session while running yellosn0w. He replaces its AT&T sim card with a T-Mobile card and at the end of the demo, he receives a phonecall.

There are many small utilities that automatically turn off your computer when you are finishing a task or at a given time interval. AllOff is the first application I know that turns off your computer when its idle, with no mouse/keyboard activity or, when the CPU load falls under a percentage. This might come in handy when you are running a computer intensive task such as rendering (that takes hours) and you decide on leaving. AllOff comes into play and as soon as your tasks are over, it switches your computer off. AllOff monitors your mouse, keyboard and CPU activity and initiates a shutdown if no activity was read for x seconds.

What is the Boot Record?
Every partition has its own boot record. The boot record is used to store the first bits of software executed. Also, the boot record holds instructions needed to start Windows XP.
