  1. Review - Gmail Manager

    0.5.1 (Aug 30, 2006)

    It seems to do all the work in cleartext (e.g. not encrypted).
    Whilst okay with some users this is totally not okay with others (I would say all should resist).

    Other than that usability and functionality seems just great!

    Thanks.

  2. Review - Microsoft Internet Explorer for Windows XP

    7.0.5700.6 RC1 (Aug 25, 2006)

    Sorry Steve but it doesn't make a sense to switch to IE7.
    * Look at the installation package size Vs. the competition.... might this hint application load and performance?
    * look at the features available at the competitive product for months now - does it make sense to switch? don't think so
    * Look at stability and number of security patches competition receives Vs. those constantly flowing into IE6....

    Let's keep things at perspective.

  3. Review - Microsoft Windows Search for Windows XP / Server 2003

    3.0 Beta 2 (Aug 23, 2006)

    X1 is the best a business Windows user can have.
    I user GDS, Copernic (including 2.0 beta) and even tried the MS attempt.
    X1 is the best there is today.

  4. Comment - Still too early to judge effect of PS3's price cut

    3.0 Beta 2 (Nov 17, 2007 - 4:19 AM)

    Hi,

    What will happen a year from now - 2008 fall when Microsoft will do a dramatical HW face lift to the XBOX 360 bringing the performance of the console close or even better than the PS3?
    Microsoft console components are nearly all off the shelf components.
    What will Sony do then?
