  1. Review - PDFCreator

    0.9.2 (Jun 23, 2006)

    This is most certainly one excellent PDF creation program that most people should have... However, Since the release of 0.9.2, they have included some sort of (silly) toolbar for internet explorer. This is why I am rating it as a 4 and not a 5, otherwise, amazing program!

  2. Comment - SanDisk Introduces 16GB Flash Card

    So, with an 8Meg Camera, you can store 2,000 Jpeg's on the 16GB Card. Once more, it would take you 13minutes to fill it at full speed!

    One use for this technology would be replacing Advertisement Boards in cities. One side would display one advert while the otherside would display yet another, increase advertising space and revenue.

  4. Comment - Microsoft Sued Over WGA Program

    0.9.2 (Jul 4, 2006 - 4:36 AM)

    Nope, this is the only computer I installed it on. I got everything work correctly, and then activated windows before I gave it to them.

    I'm not sure why the usb device triggered re-activation, but it wasn't a very good experience infront of a customer.

    The point really is I don't think I should have to activate my copy of windows full stop. I mean, how annoying would it be if you had to ring up your car manufacturer in the morning before you can start your car?

  5. Comment - Microsoft Sued Over WGA Program

    0.9.2 (Jul 3, 2006 - 7:51 AM)

    I have to say I don't like any of Microsoft's WGA or Windows Activation...

    I sold a computer to someone the other day with a leagal Windows XP Home OEM Licence.

    When I set the PC up for them, they wanted to install a USB Wireless Thumb, so I installed it for them.

    However, Windows wanted to be Activated again, and so I had to ring Microsoft. I ask the lady (In a call centre far far away) if this would happen everytime I installed some hardware. Her reply:

    "This is what you have to do with all Microsoft Products... Thats Life!"

    So when this couple buy a new printer or digital camera in a few weeks time, they will have to ring Microsoft... again.

    This is why I really don't like WGA or Activation. I did the good thing and bought their product, but ended up being a suspected theif.

    CSS Allows you to create style sheets for differennt types of devices, TFT Screen, PDA etc.

    There is no reason that a standards compliant website shouldn't be able to meet these requirements!
