"The most important thing Microsoft is watching for is hardware compatibility, Sinofsky said..."
So WTF is...
"Your computers processor is not compatible with Windows 8..."
Tried it on a Thinkpad i5 2.4Ghz and a desktop with an older, but more powerful, Q9650 CPU... same results in both instances with the W8 installer... eh, pants or what!
Apart from the terrible interface, I'm not bloody well upgrading perfectly good CPU's to suit the whims of Micro$oft....
Sheesh... it should be renamed White Elephant...
Why should Assange expect never to be held to account by the US administration for tapping into their comm's and publicising them? People have been extradited to the US for far less, whilst others have been covertly whisked off to Gitmo' .... and as far as the Swedish issue goes, why is he fighting extradition - surely such an informed pillock-of-the-community was aware of the laws affecting Sweden and therefore the consequences of whatever he may have done there...
His plight makes my heart bleed .... NOT!!!
If your network (including WiFi) performs optimally it makes no faffin' difference...
Stuck in the dark ages behind numerous cob walls on 802.11b/g, and you've had it, but surely that hardly needs pointing out?!??!
I get precisely the same results testing on Cat6 ethernet as on my 802.11n dual band WiFi signal, just as long as the signal strength is good and the inbound connection is below the actual WiFi transmission threshold of course...
Sheesh... but if you've got a TalkTalk router, it's prolly' not a brilliant idea...
Can't understand the fuss. I need 5Tb and get it from Livedrive for a measly sum compared to Amazon & Co, no bandwidth charges, and it even works with SyncBackPro (yeah, PITA to set up, but once you have it right you will get around the clock backup without having to maintain anything like 5Tb in local hard drives for mirroring...)
Encryption? I'd want it handled locally. Certainly not in "the Cloud".
Serves Google damn right, every time I get an Adobe Flash Update I don't want to have to untick a box to prevent downloading a flaky little Google browser which doesn't even have a bookmarks side-panel... at least Microsoft W7 provides a browser choice screen (if puny, and even if only in Europe anyway)...
I do hope the person responsible at Microsoft turns out to be an employee who'd previously worked for Google... and the whole thing turns out to be a cunning stunt...
Or were heuristics at work, not sure any M$AV could possess trustworthy heuristics... there's a risk it might delete the entire C:\Windows\System32 folder, file content, and sub-folders...
Aspergers sufferers do no have problems understanding the law, they are not like those with certain other psychological problems.
AS kids have obsessions, but when an obsession clashes with the law they are aware that to pursue it is illegal.
Ship him off to the USA, at least it'll probably save the taxpayer one DLA claim.
