5.4.2007 Hardening Windows XP Professional
Windows XP has considerably more functionality than Windows 2000. With this functionality come more services and more potential security holes. Some of the measures undertaken by IST to reduce the risk are outlined in the extracts below. These are the security-related sections IST follows when building a Windows XP image for distribution within Academic Support.
NOTE: Most of these changes require you to sign on as an administrator.
The first and most important change to be applied is to set a password on all user accounts. Next it is very strongly advised that you do not log on with an administrative account but rather a ?User? or ?Power User? account.

13.9.2009 Feature Comparison: XP SP3 Professional vs. Vista SP1
Call it a sign of desperation, a new attempt to blow some wind in the sails of its latest platform, or a reaction to the proverbial last drop, but Microsoft is delivering its own perspective in terms of the comparison between its two Windows clients sharing the vast majority of the operating system market. Just ahead of the availability cut-off date for Windows XP through the OEM and retail channels, the Redmond company has “come out gunning” in a move designed to settle once and for good the XP vs. Vista face-off.

In a letter to some of Dells customers, they said that " XP Professional is available for OEM installation on your Dell PC purchases through at
least 2009 and likely longer." The "official" OEM and retail end date from Microsoft is June 30, 2008, just a few weeks away. There has been
much talk of whether Microsoft would bow to the demand of the consumers to keep XP alive, and with this it is still hard to tell if Dell bought a
years stock of licenses ahead of time, or if this is the precursor to an announcement from Microsoft.
Dell's plan for users is to have
Windows XP Professional installed on their machines, but include the Vista install disk for when they are ready to upgrade. "With XP installed,
we will send media for both Vista and XP with each PC so that when you are ready to migrate to Vista you may at no addition upgrade cost." The
demand seems high, so let's hope others follow suit to allow companies the time and resources to fully upgrade.

05.08.2009OEMs to Continue Shipping XP
If you already own an XP license and are still hesitant to switch to Vista, Microsoft's "downgrade rights" policy, which initially began to be
exercised in 2001, may be in your favor if you would still like to purchase a machine running Windows XP after the June 30, 2008 deadline when
Microsoft will stop offering the operating system. OEMs such as Dell have said that they still have no plans to stop offering XP as an option:
"Dell has the ability to exercise 'Windows Vista downgrade rights' on your behalf in the factory if your business is still reliant upon
Windows XP and you'd prefer to have Windows XP Professional preinstalled on your PCs," according to their new downgrade policy section for XP.
"Downgrade Rights means that anyone with a Windows Vista Business or Windows Vista Ultimate operating system can downgrade to Windows XP
Professional provided they have the media for Windows XP Professional."

10.08.2007Gateway to Sell Professional Business Unit
Gateway Inc., a struggling computer maker, said Wednesday it will sell its professional business unit to Nampa, Idaho-based computer maker and seller
MPC Corp. in a deal valued at about $90 million. MPC will continue to offer Gateway Professional products but will move branding from the Gateway
name to the MPC brand within a year. This news follows on an announcement last month where Gateway announced that it was being acquired for $710
million by Acer Inc. of Taiwan.
Under the deal announced today, MPC will take responsibility for operations and warranty support services
at Gateway's professional business unit. Gateway will get a 19.9% stake in MPC after the deal closes. As part of the agreement, MPC said it will
issue a promissory note to Gateway with a principal amount of about $10 million as of last Tuesday, payable to Gateway within six months of the
deal's closing, with a final value based on factors such as the amount of inventory Gateway delivers when the deal is completed. The companies expect
the transaction to close in the fourth quarter.

28.12.2007AMD discusses future graphics processors
Processors weren't the only
subject of discussion at
AMD's analyst day
presentation yesterday. The
company also talked a little
about its upcoming graphics
processors in the
professional, desktop, and
mobile segments. On the
professional side of things,
AMD is putting the finishing
touches on its R600-based
FireGL, which it expects to
introduce later this quarter.
The card should essentially be
a sibling of the Radeon HD
2900 XT tweaked for
professional 3D applications
like computer aided design,
digital content creation,
visualization, and so on.
On the desktop,
AMD briefly revealed what it
calls CrossFire 2.0, which
seems to be a quad-GPU
graphics solution.
Four-way CrossFire only
seems logical when one
considers that AMD's RD790
reference board boasts four
PCI Express x16 slots. As we
said yesterday, AMD has
already demonstrated a system
with three Radeon HD 2900 XT
cards. However, it looks like
there's no room on that mobo
for four cards with dual-slot
coolers.
