New PC Buyers Should Wait For Windows 8
Windows 8 is not that far away and it makes sense to wait a few more months if you are looking to buy a new PC right now or soon.
Why You Should Delay Your PC Purchase For Windows 8
If you are in the market for a new PC or soon will be, it will work in the long run if you wait it out a few more months till Windows 8 launches. Windows 8 will be launching in October this year, according to the latest rumors, and with it will be coming a host of new software and hardware features that PC buyers will miss out on if they invest in a new rig right now. Besides, even if you don’t want the new thing, this release will also force down prices of the existing PCs which will then be a generation older. So it will work out in your favor anyway.
So if you can afford to wait and buy, you will be able to take advantage of the two major changes in the PC world. The first is Intel’s Ivy Bridge. Though officially it is already out there, Ivy Bridge is actually waiting on Windows 8 to come in to its full form. PCs designed to work with this new processor will only come to the market this Fall with Windows 8.
The second change is touch. Windows 8 is designed to be touch-first (at least its Metro side is) and this will make PC makers innovate on the kind of PCs that they are making. It will force them to integrate touch in to their systems and thus pave way for a new live of software applications. Hopefully, this whole system will result in new and innovative tools that you would want to use. And all of this will happen by the end of this year.
So if you can afford to wait, you will be able to use Windows 8 on the right kind of hardware and it just might make things that much better than the current installs of Windows 8 which are running on non-optimized hardware.

The banks are defined in a file named list_bank.txt containing one line per icon. Lines in this file are in fact the name of each bank logo file, and the file should be named like this : xxxxx_xxx_xx__yyyyy.pngWhere : xxxxx_xxx_xx is the name of the bank. underscores (_) will be replaced by space when displayed in skroog. yyyyy is the code of the bank. Usually, this code appears at the beginning of the account numbe. The size of the file must be 100x100 maximum. Note 1: there is double underscore (__) between the bank name and the bank codeNote 2: the bank code is optionnal. If this is not applicable in your country, do not put anything, and do not put the double underscore. As to logo files, it's being debated currently whether we should ship them within skrooge, because of copyright issues. If you want to add them along with the file, please do so, but be aware that at some point in the future they might be removed...
