  1. Review - Picasa for Mac OS X

    3.0.0.310 Beta (Jan 6, 2009)

    Finally! Something decent other than iPhoto to organize my pictures!

  2. Review - nVIDIA ForceWare Drivers for Windows 2000/XP (32-bit)

    177.35 (Jun 18, 2008)

    Can someone try the 177.x series drivers and check to make sure remote desktop connections still work? 175.x broke the hell out of RDP sessions (filled my event log with a bunch of rdpdd.dll errors because the video driver was broken somewhere)

  3. Review - DVDFab HD Decrypter

    5.0.3.0 (Jun 9, 2008)

    Well, here's the benefit of using more than one OS: I have a plethora of totally free software available for Linux and/or Mac OSX at my disposal. When a company makes it inconvenient for software to be used, or they change the features, there will always be a free alternative available.

  4. Review - DirectX Redistributable

    August 2007 (Jul 30, 2007)

    Thanks for the update. Works great here.

    (BTW - Where did the direct links go? Has Microsoft brought down the iron hammer of wrath against Betanews for letting people skip the BS of the WGA crap?)

  5. Comment - Vista SP1 breaks ZoneAlarm, Trend Micro apps, among others

    Umm, there are PLENTY of drivers that are XP/2003 drivers... same binary file in use both places.

    Dumb comment.

    I still wish MS would have approached Vista the same way Apple did OS9->OSX. Screw the compatibility - here's a brand new platform, new developer tools, etc. New software will be for the new OS, period. If you want old stuff to run, here's a virtual machine with the old OS you can "boot" to run it.

    This would not only make it convenient to update everything to x64 boxes, but would lessen the compatibility issues with old software.

    That exact thing was what made me about puke for two reasons: a) I consider myself an expert in IP routing, and find it damn strange that there's any way they can remotely claim to have proof because "they did not see 192.168.x.x addresses" (Really? He must subscribe to the theory of public-routable private IPs. Amazing). Second, I'm an alum of Iowa State, and thought the IT profs were slightly smarter than that.

    Anyone know the going rate for expert witness testimony? I'm about to wh*** myself out and quit my day job...

  8. Comment - MS to Offer Free, Discounted Vista

    August 2007 (Oct 10, 2006 - 11:34 AM)

    Vista's main "selling" point is going to be games... When DirectX 10 is a requirement, and it's not able to run on XP, Vista will become the norm.

    Ditto here -- If you have kids, you'd realize that keeping them perfectly clean/degreased is a near impossible utopic ideal.
