  1. Review - Microsoft ActiveSync

    4.0 (May 11, 2005)

    To release a version of software that goes in reverse as far as features is terrible.
    You will not be able to connect and do a sync over your network.... Don't install this until they fix it.

    3.8 is the way to go right now.

  2. Review - IncrediMail

    Build 1812 Beta (Jan 22, 2005)

    This program is a virus.... I have had friends install it and it messes up their email. Stay Away From It!

  3. Review - ATI Catalyst Drivers for Windows XP

    4.10 (Oct 15, 2004)

    Followup - I was not satisfied with the arrogant Gerry/Jerry's statement that it was my computer THEIR driver was perfect on his machine and called again. I reached a much more amenable Sr Tech this time who FULLY admitted there was a KNOWN bug in the new driver that did not enable multiple monitors to work. They are supposedly working to put out a warning regarding this. So. DO NOT INSTALL THIS new driver if you are using XP SP2 (as they say you must be running before installing it). Hope this helps someone!

    DO NOT install these new drivers yet. They may work for you, they may not. If they don't you are not going to get any help from ATI. I was just on the phone wiht them twice this morning and they just spouted the usual line you hear from Microsoft. "It works fine on my pc".
    My problem : after installation of the new drivers my dual display option does not function. It was not work ONLY after I installed the new drivers but ATI techs say it can't be the driver because it works fine here. So it must be you.

    Wait....let them fix the bugs (ONCE They acknowledge that they have a bug and then install it...
    Pathetic....

  4. Comment - Kindle for PC opens in beta, underwhelms

    4.10 (Nov 11, 2009 - 10:20 AM)

    i don't undestand the unwhelm comment
    THis software is simply designed for one thing. To allow you to view your kindle e-books on your pc. That's it, nothing more. As that is what it is designed to do, and what it delivers then it is successful.

  5. Comment - Microsoft's Windows 7 House Party prep video is a real party pooper

    4.10 (Sep 24, 2009 - 2:18 PM)

    i agree. i was gobsmacked when i watched that video... it's hard enough getting people to come to this thing but then to have that as a 'resource'?? sigh

  6. Comment - Betanews contest: Re-doing Bing, or, 'Name That Search Engine'

    4.10 (May 29, 2009 - 3:57 PM)

    what microsoft has ditched has less to do with it than what people identify with. Naming a search engine MySearch would work for them and for people. I can imagine them installing an app that would add it to your documents folder as a place to save searches etc.. :)
