EeeRotate

Posted by oc | Free, Utilities, Windows | Thursday 18 June 2009 14:23

If you’ve got a netbook running Windows, then you need EeeRotate. This tiny program does one thing, lets you rotate your screen and trackpad 270 degrees (right side becomes top), so you can hold your laptop like a book and read.

You can use this same small program on any PC — I’ve tested it on a netbook running XP on an 8.9-inch screen and a desktop running Vista on a 30-inch screen. It’s handy if you need a temporary rotated view or want to confuse people.

As a special note for Synergy users, Synergy did not respond well when the server’s screen was rotated. The cursor, but not the ability to click, was on the server, the keyboard was on another.
