POPSNew Seven Layer Whopper! Can You Handle it? This Windows 7 Whopper might be estimated at five times larger than a typical quarter pounder. Thus, if you do the math, this 7-layered Whopper could be using 7,000 gallons of water to produce (give or take, depending on the size of the patties). In a world running out of fresh water supplies (fossil water), that's a huge quantity to plow through in one meal.

POPS Microsoft Windows 7 The biggest knock against Microsoft is making the installation of Windows 7 seem more complicated than it really is. There are five editions of Windows 7: Starter, Home Premium, Professional, Enterprise and Ultimate. To tell you which version of Windows 7 you should choose, Microsoft lays out an atrocious mess of a chart to illustrate upgrade paths.

POPSMicrosoft Exposes Firefox Users to Drive-By Malware Downloads
Here, the affected process is the Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) hosting process, PresentationHost.exe. While the vulnerability is in an IE component, there is an attack vector for Firefox users as well. The reason is that .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 installs a “Windows Presentation Foundation” plug-in in Firefox. Now, Microsoft’s security folks are actually recommending that Firefox users uninstall the buggy add-on: For Firefox users with .NET Framework 3.5 installed, you may use “Tools”-> “Add-ons” -> “Plugins”, select “Windows Presentation Foundation”, and click “Disable" This introduction of vulnerabilities in a competing browser is a colossal embarrassment for Microsoft. At the time of the surreptitious installs, there were prescient warnings from many in the community about the security implications of introducing new code into browsers without the knowledge " and consent " of end users. http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=4614&tag=nl.e589

POPSMicrosoft acknowledges Linux threat to Windows I run a dual boot as there are still a few things I require from windows but Linux out performs windows in almost every way. It now has a wealth of software to back it up, which was once the major factor in putting potential users off. Microsoft have to face up to the fact that their monopoly is beginning to fall apart and mainly through their own greed and arrogance. A fact highlighted by the success of Firefox and other Mozilla applications. You can get hold of a live CD to try it out if you don't want to jump in feet first just do a web search for Knoppix.
