Should Office Live = Office Lite?

Notes from VisiCalc creator Dan Bricklin's dinner with Microsoft corporate vice president of business development Dan'l Lewin: "He (Lewin) didn't seem keen on the idea of OWA-like (Outlook Web Access) versions of Word, Powerpoint, and Excel. Some of us let him know that's what we expected him to say but were surprised because it's what people want."

Vista Ultimate Extras

One of the major unanswered questions about Windows Vista is what exactly Vista's Ultimate Extras will be.
windows - comments - 7.11.2006

Windows Vista Ultimate explained

Windows Vista comes in several different incarnations. But essentially there are two pathways -- the home user and the business user. However, at the very top of the pile is the Windows Vista SCU that gives you everything that is in both the top of the lines business editions and home editions -- Windows Vista Ultimate.

The Ultimate Windows Vista laptop

The most visible part of Windows Vista is the Aero interface, and while we can't deny that it looks very swish we find it very hard to get excited by a shiny new GUI. Instead, we're looking forward to new Vista hardware, which includes a new use for the humble USB memory key and much, much more. So what will the ultimate Windows Vista notebook offer?

Microsoft set to release Vista Ultimate Extra games - free

Remember Vista Ultimate Extras? Well they are back according to Paul Thurrott, but this time they will be released for free in the form of two games, Microsoft Tinker and Hold 'Em. Microsoft's failed Vista Ultimate Extras were a big promise from the company of "cutting-edge programs, innovative services and unique publications." At least they were in Vista RTM, by the time Vista SP1 was rolled out nearly all references to Vista Ultimate Extras were removed (shown below). Blogger Long Zheng called them the "ultimate con" at the time and in hindsight he was right. Microsoft made several promises of more extras which resulted in the company launching UltimatePC.com which now redirects to the Vista home-page.

No Ultimate Extras for Windows 7

Windows Vista Ultimate had an interesting feature touted by Microsoft before it's release, named Extras. This was intended to be an added extra for the paying the hefty price of Ultimate, to give some bonuses to those who paid for it. Unfortunately, Microsoft didn't plan it very well, and included very few with in the release of Vista Ultimate. This led Microsoft to publicy apologizing over the matter, and to this day not a great number have been released. This led people to wonder about Windows 7 Ultimate. Would it feature Extras, or would Microsoft not worry about them this time around?

Facebook testing "Lite" version - similar to Twitter and FF

Facebook has turned on a new feature for select groups of Facebook users (mainly in India) called "Facebook Lite" which is essentially a cut down, faster loading edition of Facebooks user interface that scarily looks more and more like twitter (or even friendfeed). Users who are being offered a place in the beta are receiving the message: We are building a faster, simpler version of Facebook that we call Facebook Lite. It's not finished yet and we have plenty of kinks to work out, but we would love to get your feedback on what we have built so far. The site for the feature is http://lite.facebook.com.

Facebook Lite available now for users in the U.S. and India

A while ago, it was discovered that Facebook, the popular social networking site, had started testing out a new version of its service dubbed 'Facebook Lite'. At the time, it was unclear as to when the choice to have the Lite version would become publicly available, though as public testing was already underway, it was expected that it wouldn't be long. Today, according to TechCrunch, it seems the site has suddenly gone live for both the United States and India. What exactly is so appealing about a stripped-down version of Facebook?

Remaining Ultimate Extra Language Packs Released

We are pleased to announce the release of the remaining 19 languages packs for Windows Vista Ultimate. This Ultimate Extras release brings the total number of language packs for use with Windows Vista Multilingual User Interface Pack (MUI) to 35. Windows Vista Ultimate enables users install multiple languages on their system and quickly switch between them by associating a system language with their login name.



MUI is particularly useful in multilingual homes where multiple people use a single computer and choose different languages for their primary use. People who wish to learn a new language will also find MUI to be a particularly useful feature. We are aware of a very large number of customers who have purchased Ultimate for this feature specifically and are gratified that these customers can now realize the full benefit of Windows Vista Ultimate.



The languages we are adding today are as follows...

Microsoft fiddles with Vista Ultimate Assurance licensing

Microsoft is to slash the number of Vista Ultimate licences offered to members of its Software Assurance program.



Software Assurance (SA), which allows customers to buy Microsoft products in bulk at discount prices, seems to have fallen victim to small-print policy change, reducing Ultimate licensing to only one for every 100 seats of Vista Enterprise a company pays for.

However, at the very top of the pile is the Windows Vista SCU that gives you everything that is in both the top of the lines business editions and home editions -- Windows Vista Ultimate.

The main attraction of Windows Vista Ultimate is that users get all the professional features of Windows Vista Business like domain logon, full backup, full Remote Desktop support, and so forth as well as the full feature set of Windows Vista Home Premium such as Media Center, XBox 360 integration, etc.

But Microsoft sweetens the deal for Windows Vista Ultimate users in the form of Windows Vista Ultimate Extras. Ultimate Extras is an on-going series of downloadable content that allows Microsoft to deliver some outstanding new features to Ultimate users even after release.

This week at CES, Microsoft unveiled the first set of Ultimate Extras including Windows DreamScene, a game, bit locker support, a photo manipulation application, and multi-language on a single PC support.

Microsoft watcher Mary Jo Foley has more details on this below.

The Ultimate con

Long Zheng: Even if the Windows Ultimate team has fled to the International Date Line, summer is officially over. Normally I wouldnt care what season it is in the northern hemisphere but today it proves this team is incapable delivering anything and should never be trusted again.



Two months ago, after weeks of pressuring for answers, Microsofts Windows Ultimate group director Barry Goffe finally spoke out about the ˜missing Windows Vista Ultimate Extras. As implied throughout most marketing materials including the official website and even Window Vistas own control panel, Ultimate Extras were suppose to be frequent and free premium products and services delivered to the customers who œwanted it all. And the truth is, customers are getting near to nothing. Although realistically not everyones equally upset at the lack of extras, some argue it wasnt part of their choice to buy Vista Ultimate, which is fine but that doesnt help the people who did.
