  1. Review - KDE

    4.3 RC3 (Jul 22, 2009)

    Keep getting better. The best KDE distro i have seen is Pardus 2009. Excellent job, keep it up.

  2. Review - Ubuntu

    9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) Beta (Apr 8, 2009)

    One of the best OSs out there. Pick up and works fine with every piece of hardware on my Toshiba A100 laptop. Hotkeys works like charm(after a BIOS update).

    One think i still don't like that its total boot time (from beginning to the point of use) is still 15-20 secs more then Win XP. I know i should be comparing this with Vista but XP is still dominating OS out there and can't be ignored. But this issue still can't stop it from being my favorite OS (specially Ubuntu 9.04)

  3. Review - VirtualBox

    2.2.0.45846 (Apr 8, 2009)

    Excellent piece of software, highly recommended. Only problem i have seen so far is USB. But this issue can also be fixed

  4. Review - KDE

    4.1.2 (Oct 6, 2008)

    Works fine for me. I am new to KDE but with a little comparison after trying Gnome and KDE 3.5 i notice 4.1 takes less memory and a bit faster. Yes, it does not have some of the options and freedom that KDE 3.5 and Gnome has. I am very sure this will be fixed in coming versions and get to the point of beauty with the brain.
    I also see some innovation in KDE 4.1. I really like the idea of folder view. its new different and keeps desktop clean.

  5. Review - Microsoft Internet Explorer for Windows XP

    7.0 Final (Oct 19, 2006)

    I don't think it is the worse browser on earth actually I like the interface its better then IE6, but without a doubt Firefox is way better then any IE version in all dimensions. Yes, the worse thing about IE7 is it takes more memory then probably more then any browser out there.
