I mean.. does grandma really need office professional when you have a free tool like openoffice?
In particular, I like Firefox for the rich features and massive number of bolt-on utilities that make the world of social media and web surfing rather easy.
7Zip is a great little program too because it will open more than just plan-old .zip files. I often find myself downloading weird files like .rar and .tgz files that aren’t natively supported in windows.
7zip fixes that.
Microsoft Patching Gone Wild?
Is it better to release 31 patches or hit the front page for the latest virus attack?
Microsoft continues to face an onslaught of criticism regarding patch counts and the now infamous “patch Tuesday”.
Write Your Own
Let that be a lesson to you. If you ever release your own operating system, be sure to make it “patch free”. As users find it to be annoying and news agencies love to use it as a reason to bash your OS.
I know..
.. I am being sarcastic. Here is an excerpt from the original article at computerworld:
“Microsoft today issued 10 security updates that patched a record 31 vulnerabilities in Windows, Internet Explorer (IE), Excel, Word, Windows Search and other programs, including 18 bugs marked “critical.”

Get Windows 7 free
Windows 7 free for a year
Microsoft is effectively giving away Windows 7 free for a year with the launch of the Release Candidate.
The Release Candidate is now available to MSDN and TechNet subscribers, and will go on unlimited, general release on 5 May.
The software will not expire until 1 June 2010, giving testers more than a year’s free access to Windows 7.
"It’s available to as many people who see fit to use it, although we wouldn’t recommend it to just your average user," John Curran, director of the Windows Client Group told PC Pro. "We’d very strongly encourage anyone on the beta to move to the Release Candidate."
However, Microsoft has previously urged the millions of beta testers to start from scratch, and not simply upgrade the beta, in a bid to replicate the real-world experience of installing Windows 7. Those who are determined not to undergo a fresh install have to follow a workaround published on the <Engineering Windows 7 blog.
The Release Candidate includes all the features that will be available in the final version. "The Release Candidate is the near-finished product," Curran said. "It’s now just final regression testing and performance enhancements."
Microsoft refused to be drawn on the final release date of Windows 7, sticking to the company line that it will be ready by January 2010, although most observers are predicting a late summer/autumn 2009 launch.
However, Curran believes that Windows 7 has already lifted much of the negativity that surrounded its predecessor. "The positive energy and momentum is quite a bit higher than it was in the Vista timeframe," Curran conceded. "People are excited about Windows 7."

Office Live Face Lift
Have you been paying attention? ….. I haven’t…
You turn your back for one second and Microsoft does something crazy and revamps Office Live! The lack of consistency with Office Live has been rather frustrating.
I know that Microsoft is trying to improve the product but so far they have only managed to piss people off. At least the people I know, the developers and integrators.
Lets hope these changes are for the better…
