Windows 7 RTM’d!
I can’t wait to get my hands on the final copy 🙂
Amazon Bulk HD Shipments
I’m not one to argue about HDs and the way they are delivered (since they are fragile by nature, and should be taken care/packed nicely), however this bothers me. Last week I ordered a bulk HD from amazon and I needed it to come next day (was building a system for my friend). Not only was the HD late cause of shipping issues, but it was shipped in a tiny box with virtually no padding in it. I could only image if this was shipped via standard shipping (ground) what it could have looked like.
Luckily I tested the HD out full (took 3 hours or so) and it had no issues. Next time I think I may go with the egg no matter what the price.
Take a look at these pictures…(taken with the iPhone 3GS)
Apollo 11
Well, after the fake NASA videos, comes the true Apollo 11 Partial Restoration HD videos.
Some people say this was fake, some say that its real. However I think we all can agree its still pretty cool 🙂
Internet Explorer 6
Well, I always been a big fan of Firefox for the longest time, and I still am. However some things don’t really like Firefox and I have been hesitant to upgrade IE6 since it just “works” a good percent of the time at work (web application issues). However it appears I may have no choice to upgrade. A few sites, from what it sounds like, are going to stop supporting IE6, and if thats the case – I am going to have my hands full upgrading a bunch of machines to IE 7 or 8.
Windows 7 RTM?
This week Microsoft has there WPC09 conference.
Today is day 2 an I was hoping to hear from Ballmer about Windows 7 RTM. However nothing has been said about it yet and I was very confident that it will be released the 13th or the 14th. However things never turned out as planned, and as the Windows Blog stated:
We are close, but have not yet signed off on Windows 7. When we RTM you will most certainly hear it here. As we’ve said all along, we will RTM Windows 7 when it’s ready. As previously stated, we expect Windows 7 to RTM in the 2nd half of July.
Oh well, it looks like we have to wait a bit more…hehe 🙂
