What is Happening to Windows 7? - http://community.winsupersite.com/blogs...

I don't think you'll be on John Dvorak's Christmas card list this year!
- Steve de Mena
from iPhone
Good post! I really don't get this new piece by Dvorak.
- Nikolaj Stenberg
That guy is no better than a shock jock.
- Joshua Hudson
While Dvorak can be entertaining at times (especially as the curmudgeon on TWIT) why are we shocked by this story? Dvorak gets headlines and he knows what he is doing..end of story
- Ryan Tiffany
Good response! Dvorak is all about shock... Windows 7 was just doing too well to suit his "click through" needs.
- Robert A. Owen
I read Dvorak's article. Where the heck is he coming from? The positive stories about Windows 7 have far outweighed anything negative. My company will be transitioning to Windows 7 by mid 2010. Many IT folk I have spoken with are looking forward to moving to Windows 7. Dvoraks claims about the registry are based on his outdated knowledge of it.
- Jim Bednarz
Yeah ... Dvorak's article makes about as much sense as claiming that the problem with Chrysler is that they insist on including making gasoline powered vehicles. As someone said on Twitter yesterday: sure, the registry is why Linux totally killed Windows on the desktop.

If it was Banana Computers we'd just get more phallic jokes.
- Dean Clark
Will they announce the new Iphone tomorrow? I'm ready to make the switch. I'm just hesitant about AT&T, like when Robert called in on the Gilmor Gang take 2 from his car the quality sounded terrible.
- Stephen Pickering
LOL~!!! Awesome scoble.
- Adam Jackson
I BET it will be called iPhone Video. Expecting so much [new] video functions, so that it will be BASED on video. We'll see
- Konstantin
will this start a new meme?
- Dickson Loh
Dickson: it's a meme I've been on since 1977 when my dad brought home an Apple II and Hyde Jr. High let me help unbox its first Apple II.

Occasionally I use my iPhone to make phone calls.

The only thing about the camera in the front is how do you see what you are taking a photo of?
- Stephen Pickering
Brett, what is the call quality like? I've been on CDMA my whole cell phone life, well except for the analog years
- Stephen Pickering
Stephen, it's for video chat
- Konstantin
Ah, so there's a lens in the back too? Duh... I know
- Stephen Pickering
All this for a new camera?
- Nikolaj Stenberg
No there's a faster processor
- Stephen Pickering
600mhz I think
- Stephen Pickering
all this for a major conference
- Tyler Gillies
Tyler: you're right, 50 "Apples" is too many. I should have only put 43 here. ;-)
- Robert Scoble
I wonder if they will make a Touch with ear and mouthpiece so that with a MiFi card you could have an Iphone on the Verizon or Sprint network

Stephen: The quality seems OK. I was with Sprint and Verizon the past 8 years. I like the iPhone for the apps and it's like having a mini-computer with me at all times. The few calls I make sound OK but not wonderful.
- Brett Nordquist
Is Friendfeed where you guys hang out when Twitter is slow? More action here tonigh!
- Brett Nordquist
+1 patrick, yeah ive had to clear all authorized computers more than once because of that
- Tyler Gillies
brett -- when isn't twitter slow? ;)
- Tyler Gillies
Thanks Brett, that's what I thought. Btw Twitter is ALWAYS slow, always has been even when there was no one on it
- Stephen Pickering
Brett: what's Twitter?
- Robert Scoble
robert: LOL
- Tyler Gillies
bummer, bummer, bummer, bummer... I wish I could live in the U.S sometimes...
- Orli Yakuel
Good point about Twitter being slow. Sure does seem that way the past while.
- Brett Nordquist
Orli: going to an Apple press conference is over rated. I live 45 minutes away and I'm not tempted.
- Robert Scoble
Today is a good day. I can't wait.
- Jim Williams
I bought two iPhones in March so I won't be upgrading for a while. I got my spouse one wondering if she'd use it. And now there's no way I could pry it out of her hands. She's taken to it like I would have never imagined. She's into the simple games, but she LOVES it.
- Brett Nordquist
one way I am hoping a great, revolutionary new iphone, so that I can admire it. OTOH I am hoping my iphone 3g is not obsolete tomorrow...
- Alpay Erturkmen
By the way, both Mike Arrington and my iPhones have tons of cracks on the screen in a very similar pattern. I wonder what that means?
- Robert Scoble
damn too costly. damn too costly. damn too costly. damn too costly. damn too costly. damn too costly. damn too costly. damn too costly. damn too costly. damn too costly. damn too costly. damn too costly. damn too costly. damn too costly. damn too costly. damn too costly. damn too costly. damn too costly. damn too costly. damn too costly. damn too costly. damn too costly. damn too...

نرین وسط تکست فیدما عنتر
- hasrat
The service is what is too costly
- Stephen Pickering
actually i heard a cheap iphone rumor
- Tyler Gillies
For a student living in a second-third world country? Hell yea! :)
- Yuvi
Well Apple has always been kind of US centric
- Stephen Pickering
Not just Apple - Not a single retailer ships to India :( Amazon, Newegg, nobody :
- Yuvi
I wonder if that's a Government regulation thing?
- Stephen Pickering
FriendFeed ships to India!!!!
- Stephen Pickering
Yeah, it is. But when Cafepress can ship, why can't Amazon!
- Yuvi
Electrons always get free shipping :D
- Yuvi
i pay for my electron shipment
- Tyler Gillies
I had this problem when I ran a internet retailer out of my house. I'd get orders from England and such but the tarriff would be as much or more than the order
- Stephen Pickering
Also, an iPhone even with a contract is INR 32,000 - which is around 700$. That sucks.
- Yuvi
In India they don't do subsidies?
- Stephen Pickering
32GB iPhone, 32GB iPhone, 32GB iPhone, 32GB iPhone, 32GB iPhone, 32GB iPhone, 32GB iPhone, 32GB iPhone, 32GB iPhone, 32GB iPhone, 32GB iPhone, 32GB iPhone!
- Louis Trapani
Stephen: NO. I'd gladly fork over 200$, even 300$ for an iPhone, even with a contract! BUT NO SIR, YOU ARE NOT GETTING ONE! iPhones are for the RIIIICCH!
- Yuvi
Yeah but you know how much our monthly service is here? $120 per month
- Stephen Pickering
Tomorrow is gonna be amazing...just wait and see. I've already said too much ;)
- Andru Edwards
120 i would blow on non iphone junk
- Tyler Gillies
Andru: you suck. Now send me a DM about what's coming in the morning.
- Robert Scoble
In Russia they pay about $12 per month for cell phone service and yet one of the companies I'm invested in Vimpel makes as good or better margins than US carriers. How is that?
- Stephen Pickering
Stephen: So basically you're getting ripped off by the Telcos, while we're getting ripped off by Apple :) I spend about 6$ a month, for about 30 hours of talktime and 750 free outgoing messages a day :)
- Yuvi
12 USD?
- Tyler Gillies
Yeah, that's my point, and yet I bet the carriers in India make the same amount of money as ours
- Stephen Pickering
Just seen a post by Leo Laporte, went something like; Pre, Pre, Pre, Pre,Pre, Pre,Pre, Pre, Pre, Pre, Pre, Pre,Pre, Pre,Pre, Pre, Pre, Pre, Pre, Pre,Pre, Pre,Pre, Pre, Pre, Pre, Pre, Pre,Pre, Pre,Pre, Pre, Pre, Pre, Pre, Pre,Pre, Pre,Pre, Pre, Pre, Pre, Pre, Pre,Pre, Pre,Pre, Pre - - - - - - Just kidding, we all love Leo!! :)
- Jim Connolly
Tyler, actually more like $8 USD, and as Yuvi just said in India he only pays 6 USD!
- Stephen Pickering
tech news-- the post i saw had more cuss words in it ;)
- Tyler Gillies
Why is service in the US so much more expensive, the real estate for towers?
- Stephen Pickering
stephen -- because they know we'll pay
- Tyler Gillies
And I'm kinda 'higher end' :P A few of my friends spend about 1-2$ a month, and still get those free texts :)
- Yuvi
Yuvi, I'm gonna cry
- Stephen Pickering
i actually didn't think 120 a month was very high heh. now im shocked
- Tyler Gillies
Cell phone service used to be very costly - around 20 bucks a minute (that'd be 50 cents) when it first came on in - ten years ago. Then Reliance happened, everyone got a mobile :)
- Yuvi
I only found this out when I invested in a Russian carrier
- Stephen Pickering
If I could avoid iTunes (which I despise), and were I able to afford multiple mobile contracts, I might consider an iPhone. But damn, I just want the thing to show up as mass storage. And I want a file browser.
- Christopher A Carr
Now, for 3$ a month, I can call other Vodafone numbers for 10paise (that'd be, 0.20 cents NOT 20 cents), and other numbers for 49paise (that's around 1 cent). Not bad at all :)
- Yuvi
Let's hope for the release of Snow Leopard and Apple OS 3.0!
- Peter Kruit
So, how much do americans pay for mobile service?
- Yuvi
How much is 1 rupee worth. I just watched Slumdog
- Stephen Pickering
Yuvi: this is why Android is so interesting. I think long term that Android is going to be how most people get a cell phone with the power of an iPhone.
- Robert Scoble
GPL. GPL. GPL. GPL. GPL. GPL. GPL. GPL. GPL. GPL. GPL. GPL. GPL. GPL. GPL.
- A.T.
Yuvi, my bill is over 100 bucks a month
- Stephen Pickering
Stephen: The ballpark rate is around 50 rupees for one usd.
- Yuvi
I agree, Robert. It won't be long before Android matches the polish of iPhone's OS and WebOS
- Christopher A Carr
OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!
- Larry Hudson
OK, so he was still a USD millionaire
- Stephen Pickering
Stephen: And how much do you use it? I mean, how much do you talk?
- Yuvi
reliance?
- Tyler Gillies
@Scoble: You know when Android would reach critical mass? When the cheap knockoff Chinese mobile makers embrace it.
- Yuvi
All the time because its my only phone. But my plan only allows 900 minutes, but you get free weekends and after work hours. I think I average 1000 minutes a month
- Stephen Pickering
Yuvi: I hear there are 12 Android phones shipping this year. It's only a matter of time.
- Robert Scoble
I'm sure the BigInJapan folks would appreciate a camera that will work for their barcode app.
- Christopher A Carr
hope the new iphone has a macro lens
- Tyler Gillies
Yuvi: They already are.
- Christopher A Carr
Christopher: did you see the Android phones that were handed out at Google's I/O conference? They are very nice. I think they passed Nokia and Microsoft with that effort and have Palm and Apple in sight.
- Robert Scoble
The "magic," yes, I did. It's a much more attractive handset than the G1, which is what Android needs at this point.
- Christopher A Carr
I wonder what Bono will do to McNamee if the Palm thing doesn't work out
- Stephen Pickering
Christopher: I'm not sure! A Chinese phone with a very big screen sells for around 90-100$. The only reason they're not as popular as Sony Ericsson and Nokia is the shitty software on them. If they have Android, I'd buy it in a heartbeat. So would millions of people here.
- Yuvi
Yuvi: since Android is open source and free to put on phones I expect the Chinese will catch on within months. Especially since Android is getting better and better and selling better and better too.
- Robert Scoble
Yuvi: Lenovo has an Android-running handset, for the Chinese market, coming out soon. Not sure it's all that cheap, though...
- Christopher A Carr
I hope so Scoble, I hope so.
- Yuvi
Scoble,Yuvi: Chinese sets which come to India are without IMEI number which means, they are ILLEGAL
- Manish Sinha
Not Lenovo. Nameless factories that churn out mobiles, Christopher. Some have pirated copies of WiMo, and most have some shitty homemade OS.
- Yuvi
@Manish: A friend of mine just bought one two weeks ago. My uncle uses one. Pop on any train, and you'll find a lot of people using these. I'm not too sure about illegality - I think they might've now gotten IMEI numbers.
- Yuvi

- Alp
Yuvi: As Robert said, it's a free mobile OS. China doesn't lack for Linux hackers...I'm sure Android-running cheapies will be common in the near future.
- Christopher A Carr
Also, do cheap Chinese knockoffs appear in the US much?
- Yuvi
Yuvi: not really.
- Robert Scoble
Not particularly.
- Christopher A Carr
Yuvi: Some of my friends too use it. Indian Govt has asked all Telecom Operator to block mobiles without IMEI number but the telecos are reluctant. I large number of people still do use phones without IMEI number, so telecos will lose a lot of customers.
- Manish Sinha
What's an IMEI number?
- Stephen Pickering
<Insert Customary Link to Wikipedia>
- Yuvi
I would like a really high-spec Android-running device. Something with a higher res screen, real camera, etc...talking higher-end hardware than, say, and iPhone.
- Christopher A Carr
Also, an iPhone or Pre would be *very* vulnerable to theft. Some jackass stole my SE phone a week ago, an iPhone or Pre would be much more valuble targets!
- Yuvi
If someone steals my G1, and is stupid enough not to turn it off, I can track it.
- Christopher A Carr
yuvi -- my iphone never leaves my body and i wear pants with deep pockets on purpose ;)
- Tyler Gillies
So Robert, will you be going down to the Apple store this time in case something is released?
- Jesse Stay
Jesse: nope. Although I have my Prius all ready. Heh.
- Robert Scoble
i want safari4linux from Apple. Please, Robert say them "the penguin wants apple very much!"
- Hüseyin Mert
Mert: Fat chance :) They won't even release a non-sucky passable iTunes for Windows...
- Yuvi
Huseyin: You want a Linux version of Safari? Why, when Chrome is in the works?
- Christopher A Carr
Robert, same here - I think I'll just be ready to dart if it looks like something's going to sell worth getting. It sure would be nice if the Apple stores could have custom feeds straight from Apple during the Keynotes. I think they'd get a lot more business around that time if they did.
- Jesse Stay
An interesting thing about Safari4 beta for Windows is that it looks Windows-native -- wonder if that's in the works for iTunes for Windows at some point...
- Christopher A Carr
Christopher: have you tried official release or chromium. Both sucks. So, why apple ignore linux? this would be the question.
- Hüseyin Mert
Same reason almost every other corp. in the world ignores Linux (on the desktop)
- Yuvi
They are in development stages and are not nearly ready to be primary browsers. Chrome for Windows is much better than Safari 4 for Windows.
- Christopher A Carr
linux on the desktop is just lame. server cool. desktop fail. end of story
- Tyler Gillies
+1 Tyler. And I'm sayin that from an Ubuntu box
- Yuvi
If you're using Ubuntu, you ought to try Linux Mint...a much more polished distro UI-wise, built from Ubuntu.
- Christopher A Carr
mint isn't"built" from ubuntu. it IS ubuntu
- Tyler Gillies
When is Safari going to have separate processes per tab?
- Christopher A Carr
and its not the "polish" that makes it fail. its the design, it was created as a server OS
- Tyler Gillies
That's becoming less and less the case, Tyler. Have you tried the latest Mint?
- Christopher A Carr
last mint i installed was elyssa
- Tyler Gillies
Gloria is a considerable improvement.
- Christopher A Carr
Elyssa was Mint 5. They are on 7 now.
- Christopher A Carr
im not saying its a bad os. it just fails when compared to windows 7 or mac osx
- Tyler Gillies
The "built for servers" point is a bit odd considering OSX's history...
- Christopher A Carr
mushrooms! mushrooms!
- Ben
Well, heck then I'm not getting Linux because my Mac Beach Balls enough as it is
- Stephen Pickering
badgers badgers badgers! ;)
- Tyler Gillies
Stephen, Macs don't crash. The funny commercial said so...
- Christopher A Carr
osx is bsd. thats a different story ;)
- Tyler Gillies
hehehehehehehehehhehe
- Stephen Pickering
Yeah, that was my point, Tyler. At any rate, let's not risk touching off a silly OS fight. Until recently, I was tri-booting Mint7, OS 10.5.x, and Win7, on my netbook.
- Christopher A Carr
menage a trois
- Tyler Gillies
Indeed. Ended up with a Mint7/Win7 dual boot. OSX's UI isn't great on the little screen. Ran just fine, though.
- Christopher A Carr
Christopher I downloaded Windows 7 on a Sun Virtual Box. Is there anyway I can make it fill up the whole screen or can I only do that with boot camp?
- Stephen Pickering
Stephen, first of all, you're not seeing all the Win7 prettiness without hardware acceleration. And yes, you should be able to go full screen with VB.
- Christopher A Carr
isn't virtualbox a piece of software?
- Tyler Gillies
Yes, tyler, for installing OSes in virtual machines.
- Christopher A Carr
Yeah, I haven't played with it because it just sits there in its little box. No fun. But Leo Laporte was saying that Virtual had come so far that there was hardly any difference
- Stephen Pickering
I'll boot camp it
- Stephen Pickering
It runs nice in a VM, but, yeah, to really try it out, you should consider installing it on real hardware.
- Christopher A Carr
i installed windows xp in virtualbox from linux on a gateway because that was the only way i could get the drivers to work without the oem install cd
- Tyler Gillies
I had Vista for a while on this Imac, but then it stopped working because it was a 350 dollar Home edition I bought for my Parents and licensed for only one machine! Oh that made me so mad
- Stephen Pickering
I mean Vista Boot camped until it wouldn't let me log in anymore
- Stephen Pickering
And yes, it was beautiful, so I can imagine what Win 7 woudl look like, now I'm drooling, must boot camp. Think I'll do that now, as it looks like no sleep tonight
- Stephen Pickering
Virtual Box has a "seamless mode," which lets you launch windows apps seemingly in Linux - sort of hides the guest OS. I would stick the XP bar on the side of my Linux desktop...elicited lots of "what the fucks?" **edit** This was with Linux as the host and XP as the guest, which works better than the other way around.
- Christopher A Carr
Time to get a DVD out
- Stephen Pickering
anyone have a blueray player?
- Tyler Gillies
Getting a blueray burner for my desktop PC next month.
- Christopher A Carr
Oops, what happened? Screenabstract from iPhone after firing the device up? :-)
- Mark Jacobs
is it worth the upgrade?
- Tyler Gillies
You mean video quality-wise, from a DVD?
- Christopher A Carr
yes
- Tyler Gillies
on a 1080P screen, absolutely. And sound...much better.
- Christopher A Carr
@Tyler not only blu ray looks great, but most players will also upscale dvds to make em look great
- Sebastiaan van den Akker
is blueray 1080p?
- Tyler Gillies
most blu rays are 1080p, some earlier ones were 720p... check the box... it usually says if is 1080p
- Sebastiaan van den Akker
I hope Apple finaly introduces blu ray support in snow leopard.
- Sebastiaan van den Akker
If you've ever watched something like a football game via an uncompressed, over-the-air HD signal, it's even a little better than that...
- Christopher A Carr
apple is really getting uncreative with their naming schemes. leopard to snow leopard?
- Tyler Gillies
Apple seems to think that we are all going to have 100MPBS down connections and 20 TBs of storage sometime in the very near future. So don't hold your breath, Sebastiaan.
- Christopher A Carr
100 mbps would be nice. i have 3
- Tyler Gillies
Apple would prefer to sell us high-def content via iTunes.
- Christopher A Carr
does perian have blueray?
- Tyler Gillies
here in the netherlands, they don't even sell movies yet or tv shows, or you can't rent movies either... so that sux, no blu ray support.. As far as i know, macs with vlc or perian can play ts mpeg streams.... thats not the issue
- Sebastiaan van den Akker
Tyler, bandwidth and storage is the issue. A physical medium like Blue Ray disc solves those problems.
- Christopher A Carr
100 mbps? I have 256kbps
- Yuvi
is that isdn?
- Tyler Gillies
I've 7 mbps. There are places where one can get a residential 100mpbs connection. Tokyo, for instance. Verizon is doing fiber to the residence in some parts of the US, with 50mbps connections available, I think.
- Christopher A Carr
It's ADSL
- Yuvi
DSL rather
- Yuvi
i live on an island i think the highest we have here is 11 mbps
- Tyler Gillies
Most of Europe kicks most of the US's ass in the residential bandwidth department...
- Christopher A Carr
256kbps would really make me cry.
- Christopher A Carr
I could've taken 2 mbps, but that'd be capped at 2.5 gigs a month :(
- Yuvi
I have 20mbps connection, but it doesn't go no faster than 6mbps cuz of the distance to telephone adsl switches
- Sebastiaan van den Akker
That's less than one 1080p feature length film, Yuvi.
- Christopher A Carr
yeah benjamin buttons is 7.36 gigs
- Tyler Gillies
Yes, I know. That sucks. That's why I'm on 256kbps uncapped.
- Yuvi
But at 256kbps, you can't really stream video much. Hell, even Pandora might be flaky.
- Christopher A Carr
Pandora is geotarded to the US. Youtube is shitty :(
- Yuvi
geotarded LOL
- Tyler Gillies
Watching a YouTube vid goes like this - click on play, click on pause, wait for it to download (at approximately 1s/s, so for a 8 min vid, I'd have to wait 8 mins), then watch :(
- Yuvi
Ah, that's right... us damn self-centered Americans. ;) Sorry
- Christopher A Carr
Can you use a web proxy to get Pandora to work?
- Christopher A Carr
i prefer grooveshark over pandora
- Tyler Gillies
I'd suck (with buffering) even if It was direct. With a proxy, no chance!
- Yuvi
Last.fm works though.
- Yuvi
Pandora's built from scratch, fancy database is tough to beat.
- Christopher A Carr
Yuvi: What's the mobile network speed situation there?
- Christopher A Carr
Well, there're two new providers offering 1.5mbps
- Yuvi
In all fairness, there are 16Mbps connections available for Residential users now in India. The problem is they are fixed data limit (20 GB) and fairly expensive (~$60/mo). And 3G EVDO Data Cards with 3.1 Mbps are available as well but again, expensive ~$13/mo for 1GB, ~$25/mo for 10 GB.
- Parth Awasthi
+1 Parth. 20GB at 16Mbps is laughable.
- Yuvi
$25 USD a month for a 3G data plan with a 10GB monthly cap?
- Christopher A Carr
you got that right.
- Parth Awasthi
That's cheap.
- Christopher A Carr
It's not because I'll use those 10GBs in a week at most and then I'll pay $4/GB. In three more weeks, I'll be running a huge bill.
- Parth Awasthi
Other than mobile plans, is it all DSL there? Or do they use coax as well? Any fiber to the residence?
- Christopher A Carr
Wired broadband connections are all DSL or Cable. FTTH is non-existent.
- Parth Awasthi
Those caps are indeed harsh.
- Christopher A Carr
I think I'm capped at 250GB per month.
- Christopher A Carr
250GB per month at a monthly price? I was earlier at 256Kbps to 2Mbps 1GB/monthly cap at $5/month. Now shifted to 256Kbps constant uncapped at $15/month.
- Manish Sinha
Yuvi: Airtel is providing 16MBps for home, but it was a joke. 20GB cap on 16Mbps line is a joke. Even if you bit mistake hit download and it gets download before you can cancel, then you have wasted a lot from your allowed cake.
- Manish Sinha
Parth: Those 3.1Mbps data cards is a joke. I never got more than 350Kbps ever. To add insult to injury TataIndicom projected in their ads... "3.1Mbps data cards 10GB unlimited"...WTF is "10GB unlimited"???
- Manish Sinha
@Manish: Me on the same plan too! :D
- Yuvi
Manish, the speeds one gets on EVDO are very highly correlated to the signal strength. I have used BSNL EVDO and I consistently got upwards of 1Mbps.

Ramsays opskrift minder næsten lidt om min. Jeg laver min scrambled eggs på panden, hvor jeg slår æg ud og lader dem stå ved høj varme indtil de næsten er ved at få en fast bund og så tager jeg den af, rører smadre dem og tilføjer fløde/cremefin og rører rundt indtil det er færdigt. Derefter salt og pepper.

De ser godt nok sjove ud på det cover... Er de fra 1980'erne eller er det bare en sjov japansk kopi-ting :-)
- Nikolaj Stenberg
Det er fra 1982. Jeg er vild med både deres look, og titlen, som betyder noget i retning af "håbløs rouge magi"..meget eighties, må man sige.

- Daniel Beattie
Men det altså utroligt smart :-)
- Nikolaj Stenberg
som jeg allerede har forklaret dig, har FF i danmark på ingen måde opnået den kritiske brugermasse der skal til for at det tager fart. Det har twitter heller ikke, men det er trods alt på vej. Danskerne bruger stadig primært FB til microbloggin og sharing. Og med den seneste ændring i FB, står det til at blive endnu mere cementeret

- Nikolaj Stenberg

- Hans Henrik Juhl
Hans, du må da indrømme, at FF er en super-platform; især når man sætter den op til at poste på Twitter for sig, så man slipper for at blive udsat for de hamsterdrevne servere :-)
