Microsoft Windows Vista Build 5456 Overview and Screenshot Gallery
Little more than a month after issuing a bug-laden Windows Vista Beta 2, Microsoft has shipped its first post-Beta 2 interim build of the next Windows and it makes up a lot of lost ground. Indeed, it's hard not to view this build and not believe that Microsoft is absolutely back on track.

24.07.2006Windows 7 Build 6519 Screenshot Gallery
Paul Thurrott has posted a screenshot gallery of Windows 7, you know -the one that was handed to developers back in December 2007; well for those who
have been living under a rock and haven't seen them yet, follow the link below.
"... A few weeks back, the first external build of
Windows 7, the next version of Windows, fell into my hands. I installed it initially in just a virtual machine and took hundreds of shots, and
that's what you're looking at here. Essentially, Windows 7 build 6519--dating back to December 2007--is just a slightly enhanced version of
Windows Vista.
My guess--and at this point, it's just a guess--is that things will change more significantly over time. But even in
this early build, a number of interesting developments emerge. I'll have more to say about that in the days ahead. For now, enjoy this first
screenshot gallery. It won't be the last."

22.10.2008Maximizing Sidebar Gadgets
Many PC OEMs ship Windows
Vista computers with Windows
Sidebar enabled, usually only
displaying the simple clock,
photos and RSS feed gadgets.
You may've found that they
install their own home-grown
gadgets to show off additional
features or apps installed on
the PC, or as sales tools for
other products. You may even
have turned off the Sidebar
because you already have a
clock in the systray and you
use other ways to check RSS
feeds.
If so, you're
missing out, as there's a
Windows Sidebar gadget for
almost anything you might
want: PC utilities, music,
messaging, traffic reporting,
searching or just a quick game
can be yours with a click of
the mouse. If you haven't
taken the time to explore
gadgets beyond those loaded by
default, take a minute to
right-click the Sidebar and
select 'Add Gadgets.' From
there, click 'Get More
Gadgets Online' -- youll find
over 1000 different gadgets
available for download.
There are still other ways
to find gadgets: visit the
Microsoft
Gadgets Gallery,
Windows Live
Gallery and
Code
Project for hundreds more.
In addition, you'll find
links to resources for
developers and a way to submit
your own gadgets for others to
use.
