Here is the continuation of the Windows 7 experience for me…. As I was saying, the system booted to the setup program and I noticed that it was completely like Vista and that scared me! Or may be I should say concerned me. What if this was the same as vista? What if all the optimization and improvements that I…

Let me start by saying that it has been a long time that I wasn’t REALLY excited with anything that Microsoft has done. In fact, the last time that I was excited with what Microsoft has released was when they released Windows 95. For that release, My friends I went to the store and waited 2 hours for the store…

MSFT to biz world: Drop 2000 & XPs-embrace goodness of Vista & 7! Biz World to MSFT: Go fly a kite! MSFT: Can't, we dropped Flight Sim! LoL!
This has been the conversation between the Business users of Windows and Microsoft for years now. In face since the release of XP. Nothing has changed! Biz says if it works - Don't upgrade it. But some case, even when they buy a new machine, they down grade it since their IT Dept. that do not allow the use of any OS that is new and they aren't trai…

I have been thinking about buying another Mac MINI and set it up as my 'Media Center" in my Home office and I was waiting for the release of the 'new' Mac MINI. As soon I decided to get the machine, new rumors surfaced that Apple is about to discontinue Mac MINI (and shoot itself in the foot). This could be a grave mistake on the Apple's part! Why? Well, Mac MINI has been single handedly responsible for the renewed interest in the Macintosh line of computers in general and specifically the sales…

Here they are - all three of them - talking about Code of Conduct for operating in China? Damn too late in my book. Do no Evil? Yea - right!

MSFT is encouraging Chinese people to buy Genuine Windows by turning screen background to Black 60 mins. Pirating Chinese Users are up in arms. Will this tactic work? I tell ya - These tactics will never work and All the software Developers MUST realize this - Sooner or later! Get the message - read the signs! Piracy will never go away and copy protection ONLY hurts the paying customers, since pirates will get around it - Every time. The only thing that can work is this: Lower the price of the O…

The nerve of these damn people! Unbelievable! Google included 'Kill Switch' in Android so they can kill Apps remotely on 'YOUR' phone! Just like Apple's remote erase switch! We pay for the Phone & rightly so we expect to be totally in control of our property and they control it remotely and at their discretion? What makes Google and Apple to be in charge of our property that we paid for? How can t…

MSFT released security update for Office 2008 & 2004. So if you use any, then update. 2008 version weights at 154MB opening to 450MB! Why MSFT released Office:mac 2008 update of 12.1.13 (154MB) for manual update? If you check for updates thru Apps, you get no updates! This sounds very suspicious to me! Why would Microsoft do that? Why not make it available thru the normal update system? Does any of you know anything about this? Please let me kn…

Apple introduced its newline of MacBook and MacBook pros yesterday and none of them were equipped with Blu-Ray drives. Apple seems to be the only laptop manufacturer that has no plans for the Blu-Ray disk? What gives? Does Apple know something that we don't? Did they need to implement more DRM into OS-X, Microsoft had to build into Vista, and they decided that it was not worth it?

After Yahoo and Google helping China Spy, now Skype admits helping China spy on the calls to and from China via Skype! Do no Evil? My AZZ! This is disgusting to me, but what do you think about this? How do you feel about Skype knowing that they help China spy? If they help China to spy why not other countries? Now we know, even Skype with all the encryption build in their system, are EVIL too.

Does anyone know if Apple has a exclusive deal with INTEL? If not, will Apple ever use AMD CPU and Chipsets in their upcoming systems? This will be so great, since Intel has to compete with AMD and traditionally Intel has to follow the AND trend, since they always cut the price and consequently Apple systems will be more affordable and they will hopefully sale more! What do you think, will they ever take this step? Will Intel allow this? I, for one, love to see this. What do you think? will you…
