Anything iPhone can do, you can do better - Mobile Minute (Download Squad)

Jul 2nd 2007 10:50AM The iPod captured a fledglingn MP3 market. The iPhone comes too little too late into a market already saturated with smartphones. Even RIM has had to cave and offer the Blackberry in software form for Windows Mobiles, which I see as a sign of game over for Blackberry devices. I own a HTC Touch and apart from when I need to type emails and texts, I find it very easy to use without a stylus. The iPhone's flashy UI is captivating just as the OSX UI was at first. Then the novelty wears off and you realize that the world runs Windows and it's just too much hassle to run two different operating systems and all your favorite apps are on Windows.

Mar 7th 2007 8:40AM This is so cool. Hope this means it will be possible to develop VB apps on the PS3.

Windows & OLPC: Strange bedfellows? (Download Squad)

Dec 8th 2006 6:20AM How many people have worked in an enterprise where the desktop runs a variant of the Linux platform? I've been to many large enterprises and never seen a Linux desktop. I've also never seen anything but MS OFfice. Big companies don't mind paying for software, they are rich and can afford it. It's just a business overhead.

Dec 1st 2006 4:04PM I have been using Ultimate Edition since the MSDN RTM release and have not encountered any issues so far. It has been very stable as has Office 2007.

Nov 6th 2006 2:50PM Impressie as a showcase of DHTML, SVG, VML, etc and programming skills but it's way too slow to be useable. Paint Shop Pro and Photoshop have nothing to fear.

When will you upgrade to Windows Vista? - DLS Poll (Download Squad)

Nov 2nd 2006 10:47PM I don't care what people say about Microsoft, their products rock. I'm buying new machines in readiness for Vista Ultimate. It's not just the eye candy factor; I want the new OS so it can take advantage of the new CPUs.

The great reinstall: Worth it or not? (Download Squad)

Nov 2nd 2006 10:18PM Fresh install for sure. I've recently bought a Core Duo machine with plenty of RAM just so I could move apps to VMs and leave the main host to just run XP, host the VMs and web browsing. I don't run any demanding applications, just Office and development tools. You could try using VMware's Converter to convert your current setup into a VM first.

Get the OS and the page file on their first. Let's face it, I bet you already know that you will use XP more and Ubuntu is headed for a VM :-) As for OSX, it's more hassle than it's worth on a non Mac machine.

Oct 19th 2006 4:02AM I'm English and I use often use Americanized slang. Sometimes I'd refer to something as being 'insane' to express 'fun' or 'coolness', so I don't see why 'barmy' could not be used like that as well.
