    WiMax ready for rollout in India

    Bangalore is IT city & Silicon valley, only for the name's sake. Availability sucks here. Just try searching for a force feedback joystick or a good graphics card in Bangalore & you know what I mean.

    I hate Dell. Dell can't make anything original.

    Open-source intrusion detector found to be flawed

    Open source/closed source doesn't matter. The only thing that matters are the people behind the project. If they screw up, then the program is screwed.

    OpenOffice Gets 'Premium' Edition

    I think Openoffice will loose it's position very soon if nothing is done to update it. MS Office 2007 is a landmark release & will rule as far as functionality is concerned. Openoffice will have to modernise or die. Things such as free or not, closed or open, is largely irrelevant for the...

    Ballmer repeats patent threats against Linux

    As if Linux fanboys spare oppurtunites to bash Microsoft & their other rivals!. Microsoft is a corporate entity & will obviously try to bash the opposition. Everybody does the same...including Linux. Get over it. He may be a monkey...but so are Linux fanboys.

    Bill Gates and Steve Jobs to Appear At the 'D: All Things Digital' Conference

    hmmm...this should be interesting. Last time we saw both together in public was at Macworld 1997. Even then, Gates was on Video uplink & physically at Macworld.

    Pre-Installed Linux Tops Dell Customer Requests

    Man, the CIO is hardly a group without any credibility. These kind of conspiracy theories are double edged swords. If MS pays to put Windows look good, there is no reason to believe that Novell, Red Hat & the millions of Linux fanatics don't do the same. Though they may not be paying to make...

    Pre-Installed Linux Tops Dell Customer Requests

    I do use Linux daily on my PC, but don't see why anyone, apart from computer & OS enthusiasts, would want to use it on the desktop. Linux may be ideal for programming, servers, etc, but the scenario is very different when it comes general to desktop use. And I am not prophecising here. Check...

    Go Beyond Vista – It's Time to Get a Mac

    desktop cube is in mac? Yes, the effect where, the screen revolves as though it were a part of a cube, when a switch user is done. I think it appeared in Tiger...or maybe Panther. hmmm...Not sure though. True, there was a time when Macs were vastly different from PCs. They had a different...

    Pre-Installed Linux Tops Dell Customer Requests

    Desktop Linux is already dead or will die out very soon. From how many years are we hearing about Linux on the desktop?. Every year is hailed as the 'Year of the Linux desktop' by Linux fanatics. So far nothing has happenned. I doubt if anything will ever happen. Linux is being given out free...

    Go Beyond Vista – It's Time to Get a Mac

    @GX hmmm...as far as Apple is concerned, they will obviously try to promote their product & try to say that they are better than everyone else. I mean which company won't do that?. How many companies will say that the opposition is better?. I don't think your criticism of Apple is justified.
