If you have a lot of items in your SharePoint recycle bin, it will be a pain to select items and delete them page by page.
Here is a cool trick to empty the recycle bin without paging through them

If you have a 64 bit machine and want to run a .NET application that only works with the 32 bit CLR you would have to make changes to the .NET framework on your machine
Set the .NET framework to load the CLR in WOW mode through this command
Open up command prompt and type this command
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\Ldr64.exe SetWow
Now you should be able to run apps that use only the .NET 32 bit CLR.
To revert back to the default 64 bit framework run
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\Ldr64.exe Set64

Based on my recent work with SharePoint 2010 and Office 2010, here is a list of my observations of the differences between the two versions of Office when integrating with SharePoint 2010.

Some enterprises may decide to rollout SharePoint 2010 without upgrading Office. In this case, here are the features that you will miss out on!. This is not a comprehensive nor the official list and is based on my initial experiences. Please post in the comments if you have additional features or if some of these work in 2010
