After you have said something helpful, THEN you can be ribald. n From: Friam [mailto:friam-boun...@redfish.com] On Behalf Of Douglas Roberts Sent: Wednesday, February 06, 2013 8:39 PM To: The Friday Morning Applied Complexity Coffee Group Subject: Re: [FRIAM] Windows Resource Monitor How about Trojan cracks? Sounds like rich earth, ripe for tilling. Merle, what are your thoughts?

This has led me to the resource monitor, a truly fascinating little gizmo, a couple of levels down in the Task Manager. The help files that are attached to it are pretty lean, and I was wondering if someone knew of a "Resource Monitor for Idiots" source. One thing that I immediately learned which was STUNNING was that mac I-tunes has a chum that it loads called AppleRemoteDevicesManager.exe which grabs 25 percent of your resources off the top and doesn't let go unless you whack it over the head with a brick. It's purpose is to manage your relationship with your mobile devices, but relentlessly demands resources even though you don't have any mobile devices. I think of it as essentially an Apple Trojan. (Ok, now, you can make Mac-cracks). Thanks, Nick Nicholas S.
