announce the finalisation of Windows 7 at the annual Worldwide Partner Conference on Monday providing there are no last minute recompiles. Windows 7
has been in development since mid to late 2008 and build 7600 will mark the end of the beta phase and on to servicing and then general availability on

12.07.2009Sparkle produces the first 80 nanometre Nvidia card
MANY businesses in Europe will
be closed from Monday till
probably January the 3rd 2007.
That hasn't stopped Sparkle
from announcing its Calibre
P768 card based on Geforce
7600 GT 80nm chip. I guess
Nvidia had to do it in 2006 as
it promised to its investors
it was supposed to shift from
90 nanometre to 80 a while
ago.
The new 80
nanometre parts will end up
clocked at 650MHz - 90MHz
faster than the previous 7600
GT clock. The chip behind it
is G73 but we don't know what
Nvidia calls the new 80
nanometre ones. The memory on
Sparkle card works at 1600MHz
and Nvidia hasn't changed the
chip memory support as it
still works with 128 bit
memory only. The card comes
with 256MB memory and has
twelve rendering pipelines. It
supports PCIe 16X interface.

22.12.2006Apple Recommends Antivirus Software
Apple has issued a technical note about Mac antivirus software, and, for the first time, suggests that Macs need such software. The note says: "Apple
encourages the widespread use of multiple antivirus utilities so that virus programmers have more than one application to circumvent, thus making the
whole virus writing process more difficult." The note then goes on to mention three antivirus programs, with Intego VirusBarrier X5 listed first. It
is worth noting this, since Apple, especially in its recent "Get a Mac" ads, has always publicly tried to ignore the threat of malware to Macs, as
well as other security issues.

The day after releasing the
final Windows Vista bits to

customers. Microsoft issued a

input on the next version of
Windows.
"Many
customers have expressed the
desire to have an impact on
future releases of Windows. We
have often heard from
customers that they want the
opportunity to make
suggestions about the way
Windows works," according to
a copy of a note Microsoft
sent to Windows testers,
published on the ActiveWin.com
Web site.
"The
purpose of this program is to
gather that early feedback
from Windows customers and use
it to make the next version of
Windows the best release yet.
Who Can Participate Initially
this program will be open to
participants of the Windows
Vista Technical Beta
Community. At a future date
after general Windows Vista
consumer availability it will
be opened up to all registered
Microsoft Connect users," the
note said.

We had a small number of early customer reports, that in some cases, this update (KB935509) was being offered for installation on all Windows Vista
editions vs. just Ultimate and Enterprise. A quick adjustment of the applicability logic was released shortly there-after to refine the edition
offering behavior. For systems set to download and install updates automatically, the update will not install even if it has already downloaded, so
most people will not be affected by this at all. Customers who installed the initial release of the update on editions other than Ultimate or
Enterprise should not be concerned as the update will have no negative impact on their systems “ it was designed to install on all versions of Windows
Vista, it is just not required on any of the others for SP1.

11.02.2009Gartner: Windows XP A Shaky Bridge To Windows 7
Computer users that pass on
Microsoft's new Windows Vista
operating system in favor of
the company's next OS release
could find themselves in the
lurch given Microsoft's
"poor" track record for
shipping new products on time,
research firm Gartner is
warnings its clients.
In a note, Gartner said
it's been told by Microsoft
that the software maker is
"scoping Windows 7
development to a three-year
time frame," confirming
earlier new reports about
Microsoft's plan for a
Windows Vista successor.
But Gartner warns that
businesses that decide to
stick with Windows XP --
Vista's predecessor -- until
Windows 7 is available may be
pushing their luck. "If the
release date slips,
enterprises will find it
difficult to fully eliminate
Windows XP before ISV and
Microsoft support
ends," Gartner analysts
write in the note.
A number of businesses and
government agencies have
indicated they may forego
installing Windows Vista on
their enterprise systems due
to concerns about price,
performance, and application
compatibility. Some 30% of the
612 IT pros that responded to
a recent InformationWeek
survey said they have no plans
to upgrade their company's
computer systems to Windows
Vista.

Windows Server 2008 RC1 with Hyper-V Beta Build Clarification
Just a quick note to anyone that plans on testing the new Windows Server 2008 RC1 with Hyper-V Beta. The build Microsoft posted here is in
fact a much newer build than either the original Server 2008 RC1 or Vista SP1 RC1. While the original RC1 was Build 6001.17051 for Server 2008 and
6001.17052 for Vista SP1, the new Server 2008 RC1 with Hyper-V beta is substantially newer at 6001.17119 and may even contain further
stability/performance improvements to the actual OS so it may be worth checking it out even if you don't intend to test the Hyper-V bits. Also note
that due to Hyper-V being a 64-Bit OS only option, there is no 32-Bit build available of the newer Server 2008 RC1.

Microsoft: Windows Server 2008 Not Delayed
Speculation has been growing
in the media that Windows
Server 2008, formerly
codenamed "Longhorn," could
be delayed past its release to
manufacturing (RTM) date of
the second half of 2007, and
slip into 2008. Microsoft, on
its Windows Server Division
blog today, says "it just
ain't so."
The very
brief note reads in full:
"Today we noticed a couple
articles which have
incorrectly speculated about a
Windows Server 2008 delay.
Actually, we remain fully on
track for Windows Server
2008's release to
manufacturing in the second
half of 2007, with general
availability following after
that as usual."
Microsoft has given no
more specific timetable for
the new OS's release, but the
name gives a hint that it will
be released late in 2007 at
the earliest. Windows Server
2008 is currently in beta 3
release, and is feature
complete, according to
Microsoft. ..
