  1. For this, you can use the column-count property:

    div#multicolumn1 {
    -moz-column-count: 2;
    -moz-column-gap: 50%;
    -webkit-column-count: 2;
    -webkit-column-gap: 50%;
    column-count: 3;
    column-gap: 50%;
    }


    Check this jsFiddle.

    Note: It does not work in IE.

    For IE, you can use this JavaScript: CSS3 - Multi Column Layout Demonstration

  2. Modify your CSS so that the container is only wide enough for two of the pink blocks. Add vertical-align:top; to the style for each item so that the blocks line up.

Slow Android emulator

I have a 2.67 GHz Celeron processor, 1.21 GB of RAM on a x86 Windows XP Professional machine. My understanding is that the Android emulator should start fairly quickly on such a machine, but for me it does not. I have followed all instructions in setting up the IDE, SDKs, JDKs and such and have had some success in staring the emulator quickly but is very particulary. How can I, if possible, fix this problem?
