    Immunet: New Cloud-Based Anti-Virus Program
    kelvin273
    by kelvin273  8-20-2009   
     Note that I haven't actually used this, since I haven't booted up Windows in a while. Also, Windows 7 will still think you don't have an anti-virus program if you run Immunet in Vista-compatible mode.

    Microsoft can't kill support for IE6 because somebody still uses it (in Outer Mongolia?)

     I'm still trying to figure out why anyone would still be using IE6. After all, IE7 is such a quantum leap forward (albeit mostly ripped from other browsers). If you have a dial-up connection that makes the download a pain, you can just get a newer version of Firefox, Chrome, or Opera.

    History of the Hard Drive

     The video is kind of stilted in places, but the Twilight Zone style music at the beginning and shots of the engineers "relaxing at home in the evening" are funny.

    Windows 7 = "Vista Done Right"
    kelvin273
    by kelvin273  7-26-2009   
     I'm willing to go along with this analysis. There were several good things about Vista. If they could just improve a few simple things (like the choice between no security and annoying User Account Control dialogs every five minutes) and not increase the required specs to something half of new PCs have trouble running, they'll have done a good job. Personally, I'll probably always prefer Linux, but if the masses are going to have an OS shoved down their throats, it would be nice to have a decent one.

    Cubans allowed to buy products they can't afford

     This is interesting. On the one hand, the new access to personal computers creates a new, de-facto freedom of the press (even without internet access to blog or post on forums, all you need is a printer to distribute anti-government literature). On the other hand, only the well-off can afford this stuff, and the well-off are less likely to agitate against the system, particularly if the system gives them cell phones and computers.

     Yet another reason to use Internet Explorer as little as possible.

    Analysis of Windows Vista content protection

     So they're going to make your computer run slower in order to keep you from making backup copies of music and movies. I think I'm going to get a new computer while XP is still out.

    Firefox still more secure than IE
    kelvin273
    by kelvin273  12-26-2006   
     Though the author seems to go out of his way to praise Microsoft and make Firefox look bad, he was forced to admit that Mozilla patches vulnerabilities faster than Microsoft. Then if you stop looking at irrelevant stats like how many vulnerabilities are discovered in a given length of time and start looking at how many vulnerabilites remain unpatched now and how severe they are, FF comes out on top by a long shot (4 vs. 18, Less Critical vs. Moderately Critical according to Secunia.com). And that's a pretty good showing by Microsoft, who usually can be counted on to leave an Extremely Critical flaw unpatched for months at a time.

     It's pretty much conventional wisdom that no Microsoft operating system is as good as it claims to be, but this may be the earliest campaign against an OS ever.
