I had my final tests and decided to stop watching it and never looked back.nI think for software developers it’s more pertinent because they look at a computer screen anyway for long hours and going back home to look at another screen is not good (to say the least).nI made a habit when I work, to go out and take a walk outside and look at things… very therapeutic.nThe way I see it: if the action the person is doing doesn’t have a final product (=end result) something is wrong…

Thanks David. I’ll have to look into that. I wonder if it is just the split windows. I didn’t see any problem on my laptop running win 8, but I was using Chrome and didn’t have the window split. I’ll see if I can get that fixed.

For me, I placed my elliptical trainer diagonal to the TV and if it is TV time is also training time!. About this videos, the site looks terrible in Windows 8.1, the site template doesn’t accommodate the video, only the left side of the video shows up, screenshot attached.
