Windows 7 - Where's the beef? How much?!!? Why, and why risk it? Adrian Kingsley-Hughes: Over the past couple of weeks I've received some 600 emails from Hardware 2.0 readers on the subject of upgrading to Windows 7. The emails have come from a broad cross-section of the PC using market, from home users running a single PC, all the way to decision makers at large corporations. Reading these emails has given me tremendous insight into how people on the ground think about and see Windows 7 (rather than pundits, which, let's face it, live in a different world ...).

Thu Jul 09 10:50:25 PDT 2009 Google announces Chrome OS tech partners ... The threat to Microsoft (and Linux as a whole) grows Adrian Kingsley-Hughes: It's easy to fall into the trap of thinking that there's a good chance of anything that Google announces either never seeing light of day, remaining stuck in beta stage forever or languishing until someone puts it out of its misery and pulls the plug on it. This is what many made of the Chrome OS announcement the other day. But now that Google has announced a string of tech partners, the whole project has acquired that "real" feel. And it now also has a chance of developing into something that could threaten Microsoft's OS dominance, especially at the lower end of the price/performance spectrum.

Amid concerns of higher than average failures of both Corsair RAM and memory from other vendors, Corsair has withdrawn all Hyper-based modules. Thu Jul 09 06:05:52 PDT 2009 Mozilla playing catch-up with Microsoft and Google Adrian Kingsley-Hughes: The news that Firefox is to get multiprocess support is a perfect example of how we all benefit from strong competition in market segments.
