    I am very proud to bring you Notebook Startup beta1!

    Notebook startup is a unique application that lets you specify which startup-applications to launch depending on your powersource ( AC, battery, both or never ).
    NBS has a very simple and intuitive user-interface and it weights only a few kilobyte.
    NBS can automatically import all autostart programs that are listed in your registry and all your shortcuts that are located in the startup folder within the programs-menu (allusers as well as current user).

    Q: But why is it called a beta version? Isn't it stable?
    A: No, after several tests on different devices NBS has proven to be very stable. But it's still missing a usermanual so it's not final yet - but that's not a problem since NBS has got an excellent tutorial/onlinehelp feature integrated into the application!

    Q: Is it a commerical application?
    A: NO! It's completly freeware!

    Q: Free? This means spyware or adware, right?
    A: NO! It's spyware-free and we are proud of that!

    Notebook Startup has been written in C++ so it has a very small footprint and there is no need for ugly Visual Basic or .NET libraries.

    Notebook Startup is definitvly a must-have application for any notebook user!

    I'm not! I just carefully notice all changes made to my system! I installed it, and it works. Good job.

    Cheers,
