Tuesday, one in Arabic for the

Its a fast pace for the equally fleet-footed technology, which is the
third revision since USB made its debut a little over a decade ago. And while USB lost out to FireWire in the sexy name stakes, USB 3.0 has a swanky

Is Intel delaying USB 3.0?
According to a report from EETimes.com, Intel has pushed plans to support USB 3.0 in its chipsets back until 2011. Without Intel's support for the
standard, motherboard and gadget makers will be forced to hold off due to the expense of using third party controllers. Also known as SuperSpeed USB
and developed by the USB 3.0 Promoter Group - Hewlett Packard, Intel, Microsoft, NEC, NXP Semiconductors and Texas Instruments - USB 3.0 promises
speeds of up to 4.8Gbit/s. At the Intel Developers Forum 2009 last month, it was unofficially revealed that Intel planned to start offering support
for USB 3.0 in early 2010, but then "shifted its plans out a year," according to the EETimes.com.

Windows Server 2003 - XP
Conversion Pack
Windows Server 2003 is well
known for its superior speed,
stability, and security when
compared to Windows XP. This
fact is proven by
Microsoft's use of the
Windows Server 2003 kernel in
both Windows x64 Edition and
the upcoming Windows Vista.
Given this fact, it's no
wonder that many Windows users
have already switched to
Windows Server 2003 to gain
such improvements. However,
these users will have no doubt
also discovered that
compatibility issues are
common when using Windows
Server 2003 as a primary
home-use OS. Until Now... We
are proud to present version
2.0 of Windows X's
popular Windows Server 2003 -
XP Conversion Pack. This tool
will convert the Windows 2003
codebase from ServerNT to
WinNT, which will enable
locked features and transform
Windows Server 2003 into a
more compatible, and usable OS
like Windows XP. After
converting, your OS will
perform like Windows XP
Professional x64 Edition.
Finally you can gain all the
advantages of running Windows
Server 2003, without the
compatibility headaches!..
