In its bid to clamp down on rampant software piracy, Microsoft Tuesday announced a global initiative under the banner of ‘Global Anti-Piracy Awareness Day’ that will include educating consumers as well as enforcing legal action.

Even though the initiative was rolled out in 49 countries, Microsoft’s director of intellectual property in Australia told the Sydney Morning Herald newspaper that the Redmond-based software giant would not be able to solve the problem fully ever.

“Are we able to solve absolutely every problem? No… there are some people who will always not want to pay for something and there are always people who will want to exploit,” she said in an interview to the Australian newspaper.

The program, launched in 49 countries spanning six continents, aims to combat the trade of pirated and counterfeit software. Read the rest of this entry »

Microsoft Inc. put the ghost of Windows Vista behind by demonstrating the energy-saving and faster boot time capability of Windows 7, during a press event in San Francisco on Wednesday.

Engineers from the software giant and Windows 7 co-developer Intel showed the better features of the operating system using two similar Lenovo laptops separately running on Windows 7 and Vista.

Boot time was 11 seconds. Other features are Blu-Ray disk support, simpler device management and encryption of data outside of the C drive, including those in removable media. Read the rest of this entry »

Microsoft recently released an ad on buying a PC. An ad is introducing Lauren. She is looking to purchase a laptop with nice performance “speed”, comfortable keyboard, a 17″ screen for under $1,000. The camera is chasing her travels around town and, of course, greets her outside of an Apple store. As Lauren exits the building in dismay that the only Mac within her budget has a tiny 13″ screen, she says, “I’m just not cool enough to be a Mac person”. The Windows world is, of course, very welcoming and Lauren winds up finding an HP laptop at a nearby Best Buy that suits her needs. She keeps the laptop and gets to keep the change.

In this challenging times of our economy, a computer buyer is searching for quality performance at reasonable prices. Therefore Microsoft offers a better fit for a customer’s needs, for their lifestyle and for their budget versus the competition that’s out there today.

People are becoming geeks in 2019.

Microsoft Labs has just put in the video where we can see the future. Microsoft worked with customers, partners and other visionaries to identify the opportunities offered by the technological innovations and to anticipate the behavioral changes of the individuals.

The best part of this video is that the gadgets all worked in touch screen. Reading the newspaper, drawing, even a simple chitchats interprets and translates into another language. Can you tell us your fave part here?

Drop us a note.

Windows 7 is all about simplicity and that’s why Windows 7 will simply be called Windows, Microsoft announced today.

Mike Nash, corporate vice president for Windows product management at Microsoft, had the honor of announcing the official name. Nash noted that he is “very excited about the opportunity to tell [people] more about Windows 7 in the coming weeks.”

According to Nash, the name “Windows 7” is simple: The company decided against a date in the name (such as “Windows 2008”) since the company does not ship a new Windows every year and it decided against an “aspirational” name (such as “XP” or “Vista”) since it is not really an entirely new release, but just an enhancement over Vista. “Simply put, this is the seventh release of Windows, so therefore “Windows 7″ just makes sense,” Nash said. 

What’s New?

Here are some of the new features that you will find with Windows 7:

1.  Faster and easier.  Windows 7 was built around your feedback, so you’ll see a lot of things you’ve asked for. You asked us to make everyday tasks faster and easier, make your PC work the way you want it to, and make new things possible.

2. Improved taskbar and full screen previews. The taskbar at the bottom of your screen is what you use to switch between the applications you’ve got open. In Windows 7 you can set the order in which the icons appear and they’ll stay put.

3. Jumplists. With Windows 7,  It’s a handy way to quickly reach the files you’ve been working with. To see the files you’ve used recently, just right click on the icon on your taskbar. So right-clicking on the Word icon will show your most recent Word documents. Plus, if there are other files you want to keep handy, you can just pin them to the Jump List.

4. Windows Live.   With Windows 7, some features previously included in the operating system are now available for download through Windows Live Essentials, a set of free applications available for your PC and supported by Windows 7. You can download Windows Live Messenger, Photo Gallery, Mail, Writer, Movie Maker, and more. With these great applications, you can improve your Windows experience, and benefit from faster delivery of these features and services.

I think there’s a lot more of features that the Windows 7 will offer.
