I'm a UC BlogTaken from The Windows Blog:
I thought I’d share an inside peek from our annual sales kick-off event in Atlanta. Steven Sinofsky joined Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer on stage to announce the RTM of Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2. There’s even a clip of Steve Ballmer signing the gold RTM DVDs. Check it out!
Well it is official both Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 have RTM’ed!
For the second time within the last week Apple’s lawyers are trying to hide information from their customers. Firstly we had the “laptop hunters” campaign and now exploding iPods – shame on you Apple!
“An exclusive KIRO 7 Investigation reveals an alarming number of Apple brand iPod MP3 players have suddenly burst into flames and smoke, injuring people and damaging property.”
But wait there is more!
It took more than 7-months for KIRO 7 Consumer Investigator Amy Clancy to get her hands on documents concerning Apple’s iPods from the Consumer Product Safety Commission because Apple’s lawyers filed exemption after exemption. In the end, the CPSC released more than 800 pages which reveal, for the very first time, a comprehensive look that shows, on a number of occasions, iPods have suddenly burst into flames, started to smoke, and even burned their owners.

If you try to compare a car repair shop with a PC repair man you will find many similarities, both cut corners, charge you for unneccessary extras and are likely to be dishonest. This is according to an exclusive Sky News expose.
If you have to take your personal computer to a PC repair shop make sure you move your personal data off and onto an encrypted flash drive.

New MSDN Channel9 episodes illustrate FastCGI, PHP, and WebDAV IIS 7.5 extension capabilities.
FastCGI is a language-independent, scalable, open extension to CGI that provides high performance. The FastCGI extension enables application frameworks such as PHP to achieve improved performance and stability on Internet Information Services. See a demo here.
