    5GB Free as a network drive

    by rickmahn  2-28-2008   
     I see Kevin Tofel, one of my favorite tech bloggers, has posted about AOL's XDrive online storage service. Good stuff, and yes, you can set it up as a mapped drive on Windows systems. Should work excellently with the Eee PC!

    IE8 in private beta
    rickmahn
    by rickmahn  2-24-2008   
     It'll be interesting to see what Microsoft comes up with to compete with Firefox in this generation of the browser. Of course this time around we have Apple's Safari and the Opera browser to compare with too. I'm sure IE8 doesn't look very different, rather, it'll be the feature set that will need to be spiffed up, similar to Firefox 3...

    OneCare for Server

     This is a great development in the OneCare service. Now if they can tie this into the Windows Home Server and tack on an online WHS backup service - that'd be great.

    by rickmahn  2-4-2008   
     No matter how much you love/hate Microsoft (or Apple, Google, Oracle, Sun, etc...) it's just business. Our favorite tools, apps, 'puters, phones, services - you name it. It's somebody's bread & butter to buy or sell. Whether we like it or not. Obviously there are a lot of unhappy current and former Microsoft customers using Flickr. ;-)

    Jobs has nice words for Gates
    rickmahn
    by rickmahn  1-17-2008   
     In addition to praising Gates contributions to the industry & society, he comments on Amazon's Kindle. He's right that it'll fail, but wrong on the reason. People do read - and like to! The issue is that digital readers don't meet the expectation of the public in cost and usability.

     While this comes as a surprise to nobody, I just want to challenge Microsoft to build a browser that I want to switch *back* to. IE7 was not it, and I know they can do it.

    Microsoft May Acquire Yahoo for $50 Billion
    rickmahn
    by rickmahn  5-4-2007   
     If this rumor is true, and the deal actually goes through - the results will be quite impressive. Microsoft and Yahoo have partnered many times in the past and this would actually be a really good pairing to challenge Google.

    Microsoft Virtualization Products Delayed
    rickmahn
    by rickmahn  4-12-2007   
     Unfortunate that MS Virtualization releases will be delayed, but the scope of the products are such that they require a little more time. As I've been watching the development of the "Vista Wave" of products, one common theme of consistency, integration, and quality keeps coming to the surface. This will be true of the virtualization products as well.

     More progress on the SCCM product from Microsoft. Brian S., my associate at MFI, will be happy to see some new information on the product. The system planner tool for SCCM will be of huge usefulness to just about any systems management infrastructure architect or planner.

    New Office Communications Server 2007—most important communications tool since Outlook?
    rickmahn
    by rickmahn  3-20-2007   
     Ars Technica does some quick analysis on the upcoming Office Communications Server 2007 that will bring IM, Email, web conference, and voice into one server platform. Interesting how this may impact the incumbent players in the market as Microsoft is notorious for undercutting the competition on price to gain a foothold in a market niche.

    Microsoft VoIP Server - Public Beta

    by rickmahn  3-8-2007   
     This will change everything - not because it's VoIP and cool, but because Microsoft will drive it into nearly every small, medium, and large size company. Large enterprise organizations will also see the cost/performance value. This changes the VoIP integration scene for all MS shops.
