How would I make the news links open in a new window?

I believe that has to be configured in the feed you are receiving. I can't remember (and I am not in front of my install) if there is a checkbox or not when setting up the RSS feed.

You can change this by modifying the the file /desktopmodules/news/rss91.xsl

Find the line:
<xsl:value-of select="title"/><br></br>

change "_main" to "_new"

That should do it.

One of the great things about DNN RSS feeds is that it allows for custom XSL files to parse the RSS feed. I have a few feeds where I do some trimming (like taking the last 10 or even changing the way the information is displayed/ordered. If you feel adventurous, grab an XSL editor/parser and give it a shot - the DNN XSL file is a great place to start.

Take a look here: http://forums.asp.net/907093/ShowPost.aspx, which will give you a basic way to limit the number of feeds.  For your specific need, you'll need to learn a bit more about xsl and incorporate a method to either sort items descending or use a count of available items and limiting display of items using the total count - current position to determine when you are navigating to the last 10 items during the transformation.  Something like that should work. 

Thanks :p
