Follow-Up: Steve Jobs
Thursday, November 06, 2008 at 12:00 AM
 Okay, I was a little harsh on Steve Jobs in my previous posting. I'm sure if my site had the ability for visitors to post comments, downseven.com would have caught fire and burned down.
I wouldn't really mean to a make light of anyone's affliction, not even Mr. Jobs. For all I know, he really is healthy. But I gotta wonder, though.
Steve Jobs has a mystique that can't be matched. Even Richard Branson (of Virgin Media) wishes he were Jobs. Apple could re-introcuce the Pet Rock, call it the iRock, and have Apple Stores with lines around the block in 15 minutes. So I wonder why he shows such open ill will toward Blu-Ray.

Blu-Ray Opens Can of Whup-Ass on Apple CEO
Wednesday, October 15, 2008 at 8:54 PM
Okay, sensationalist title, but it opens a quick note on two subjects: 1) Steve Jobs ain't lookin' too good and 2) why all the hatin' on Blu-ray?
Objectively speaking, Steve Jobs doesn't look good. He's gaunt and skeletal. When Calista Flockhart did this, every one was either throwing insults or clammoring for her to get healthy. Why does no one bother to do Jobs this favor?
Steve, seriously. Order a Big Mac.
At a recent event introducing yawner laptops, Jobs called Blu-ray technology a "bag of hurt." Why? Because he can't corral it and confine it to iPod owners for $2.99 per minute?
So did Sony (creator of Blu-ray) break bad on Steve? Turning him into a shell of his former self? Did Blu-ray place a spell on him like some surreal Stephen King novel?
Steve, meet me at McDonald's, dude. My treat.

Windows 7 Keeps Its Name
Tuesday, October 14, 2008 at 9:29 AM
 If you've been following the scant details about Microsoft's development efforts for its next major release of Windows, then you know its codename is Windows 7. Well, the software giant just announced that the official name for Windows 7 will be Windows 7. Sounds simple and straight-forward to me. And it seems Microsoft feels those sentiments best describe what the next version of Windows strives to be: Simple and straight-forward.

iPhone is Double-Edged Sword for Apple
Saturday, August 23, 2008 at 7:38 AM
iPhone and its complementing services are proving to be a double-edged sword for Apple. The MobileMe service is criticized as not ready for prime time. The iPhone 3G is having reception issues. And even the Apple faithful are complaining.
As Apple's popularity expands due to wild successes of the iPod and iPhone, the Cupertino-based company is experiencing growing pains. Unforseen problems and calculated risks are magnified as their consumer base expands. And frankly, what used to be tolerated by customers is now bringing litigation and embarrassing criticism.
Microsoft has experienced this for years. And Apple has been one of that company's most poignant critics. It appears the shoe is on the other foot now.

Microsoft's Mojave and the Real Problem with Vista
Wednesday, July 30, 2008 at 11:26 AM
Microsoft conducted an experiment where people with unfavorable feelings about Vista were shown "a future version of Windows" codenamed Mojave. Well, Mojave was actually Windows Vista. Most folks changed their attitudes after the hands-on experience.
This is proof of what I've been saying: There's nothing wrong with Vista. Get over it if you think it sucks.
Here is Vista's real problem: The lack of key drivers at launch and the kick-off marketing.
Early adopters had superficial problems with Vista sound drivers. Out of the box, the OS had no sound. Most incidents were cured with a visit to Windows Update. But first impressions can only be made once.
Vista had horrible kick-off marketing. Remember those stickers on computers (and other hardware) that said "Vista Ready" or "Vista Capable"? Confusion on the meanings of those poorly-worded labels created resentment and backlash against Vista. Someone in Redmond should have seen that Mack truck coming ... but didn't.
Microsoft's upcoming ad campaign to address the misconceptions about Vista are long overdue. Hopefully, they can pull it off.

Microsoft to Unleash a New Vista Ad Campaign
Tuesday, July 22, 2008 at 9:38 AM
 Microsoft is preparing a new ad campaign to counter the misconceptions of its latest Windows version, Vista.
Tech bloggers and Apple's "I'm a Mac, I'm a PC" have created an air that Vista doesn't really work right. In reality, though, Vista has had far fewer problems than Windows XP did during its first 18 months. It has also sold well no matter how you decide to count the numbers.
Personally, I've lived with Vista since January 2007, and I firmly believe there is nothing wrong with the operating system. Have I had driver issues? Yep. But only one, because SigmaTel won't make a Vista sound driver (shame on them). I probably had 5 or more significant driver problems in XP's first year (network and video come to mind). Have I had a security issue? Not a single one. Is User Access Control (UAC) annoying? Only sometimes. Most days, I don't even see a UAC prompt, at all. And one thing that surprises most techies is that UAC's darkened screen and prompt are actually protecting your system at that point. An unauthorized connection (aka, hacker) can't override that prompt. It also blocks keyloggers from capturing your admin password.
So what's not working here? I can't find anything.

Windows XP Update Breaks ZoneAlarm
Friday, July 11, 2008 at 9:14 AM
 A DNS patch (MS08-037) for Windows XP that Microsoft released on Tuesday, July 8, affected the way ZoneAlarm processed outgoing connections to Web sites. The effect: Windows XP could no longer connect to the Internet.
Frustrated users began calling in droves to their ISPs demanding resolution while unaware that a Windows update was the culprit and not a hardware issue. I'm aware the Comcast evidently encouraged people to uninstall ZoneAlarm. That advice is blatantly foolish and irresponsible. I did a little investigation and learned of the real problem. Comcast also changed its advisory to uninstall Windows update KB951748. Again, uninstalling an update makes no guarantee that Windows might not re-install it. So Maximum PC suggested turning the Internet Zone security setting from High to Medium, or adding the DNS servers to the Trusted Zone. For a short-term work around, I suggested to friends to take the Internet Zone setting down a notch to Medium.
Late Thursday, July 10, ZoneLabs released an update to remedy the entire situation. I strongly advise users of ZoneAlarm (who still want to use it) to download and install the update.

Microsoft Equipt: Effective Subscription Software
Thursday, July 03, 2008 at 3:19 PM
 Microsoft has announced Equipt, a new product that combines Windows Live OneCare with Office Home and Student. The cost is $70 per year and can be installed on up to 3 computers. And if an update of either package is released that year, then the update is automatic to subscribers.
This is a step in the right direction for the software giant, though the price is arguably a little on the high side. There's been a lot of talk in the software industry that subscriptions make more sense than hefty one-time purchases and also enables simpler deployments of software updates. It makes sense. And it looks like Microsoft gets it.

Mozilla Weave: Take More Than Bookmarks with You
Wednesday, July 02, 2008 at 2:16 PM
 The kind developers at Mozilla Labs have created a sophisticated bookmark synchronization utility for Firefox. It's called Weave. This Firefox extension will sync Bookmarks, Browsing History, Cookies, Saved Passwords, Saved Form Data, and Tabs -- many more items than the tools from Foxmarks and Google. So if you're using more than one computer and would like all your Firefox settings to follow you, then download Weave.

Stylish Add-on for Firefox 3
Saturday, June 21, 2008 at 3:48 PM
 There are a number of Firefox add-ons that I really like, such as Tab Mix Plus, All in One Sidebar, Glasser, and Download Statusbar (among others). But I ran across another great one of which I was not aware: Stylish.
This add-on will allow you to do many things, but one I think is important is re-introducing the colored secure location bar when you're logged into a secure site. Just download Stylish (it'll install automatically), restart Firefox 3, then open the Stylish options and create a new entry. Enter the following CSS code:
For a yellow status bar:
#urlbar .autocomplete-textbox-container { background-color: #FFFFB7 !important; }
For a green status bar:
#urlbar .autocomplete-textbox-container { background-color: #D0F2C4 !important; }

Firefox Creates New World Record
Thursday, June 19, 2008 at 10:34 AM
Mozilla's CEO, John Lilly, confirmed that Firefox Download Day achieved its goal of creating a record for the most downloads in a single day. With a 8,320,331 download count (unofficial), the release of Firefox 3 was a resounding success. The official count will be slightly lower as they "weed out over counts over the next few weeks."
Congratulations, Mozilla!

Firefox 3 Stumbles Out of the Gate
Tuesday, June 17, 2008 at 8:34 PM
After a much ballyhoo'd "Download Day," Mozilla seemed to be asleep this morning. Being in the Mountain Time Zone, I figured 7:15 AM was 9:15 AM Eastern, and the whole world was ahead of me downloading the new Firefox. But the SpreadFirefox Web site was proclaiming that Firefox 3 was still "Coming Soon."
WTF? So I clicked through to a few other Mozilla sites, but there was no sign of version 3 anywhere. So I checked filehippo. Sure enough, there it was. Just for the record, then: Firefox 3 was available ... but not from Mozilla(??).
From what I can tell from blog posts, Firefox 3 didn't hit the Mozilla home pages until midday Eastern Time. I hope they didn't mess up their chance at setting a world record...

Get Ready for Download Day
Sunday, June 15, 2008 at 3:22 PM
Mozilla is hoping to break the World Record for most downloads in a single day by having people download Firefox 3 when it becomes available on Tuesday, June 17.
I'm usually not a sucker for these kinds of gimmicks, but hey, it's Firefox. Why not? So color me a sucker, cuz I'll be joining lots of you to download Firefox in this designated day.

Windows Vista Attacks Are Unfair ... Sorry!
Thursday, June 12, 2008 at 11:49 AM
Microsoft's Windows Vista has been maligned even before it was released. And it's not fair.
Apple's "Mac and PC" ads insinuate that Vista doesn't work right. But is the accusation accurate? I've been using Vista for well over a year. And I haven't seen anything NOT work right. Windows Vista works, folks. And it works fine. It doesn't cure cancer, but neither does Windows XP.
If you're a business, then there's no great need to upgrade your enterprise to Vista. If you're a home user, then there's not a single reason you should avoid Vista.
The only thing bad about Vista is its publicity.

AVG Free 8 Offers Big Improvements
Sunday, June 01, 2008 at 3:12 PM
Grisoft recently released version 8 of its anti-virus utility, AVG Free. In addition to the usual bug fixes and interface improvements, Grisoft has included a Web link checker (much like McAfee SiteAdvisor) and an anti-spyware utility. And they didn't even raise the price.
All this for free just made my favorite anti-virus app even better!

Keyboard+Mouse Days Might Be Numbered
Wednesday, May 28, 2008 at 1:17 PM
A day after a not-so-newsworthy Windows 7 event, Microsoft has demo'd a compelling feature of the upcoming version of Windows. It's called Multi-touch, and it allows you to interact with screen objects with your fingertips, much like the revolutionary Apple iPhone. Microsoft posted a short video that shows Multi-touch in action.
Critical comments to blog posts covering this news are quick to mention the cost of LCD touch panels. My argument is that no one would by a touch panel display if you didn't have a reason. Windows 7 will give you (and millions others) a reason. As demand increases, the price of those displays will decrease. Case in point: Today, a new 22-inch LCD can be found regularly under US$200 when a year ago it was over $400.
Multi-touch enabled on the desktop should herald a new era of PC interaction and allow more natural manipulation of objects and data. This will be big, folks. The only risk: Dirty fingers.

Windows 7 Information (NOT) Released
Tuesday, May 27, 2008 at 1:58 PM
Microsoft's Steven Sinofsky was interviewed by CNET's Ina Fried. Sinofsky is heading up the development of the next version of Windows, dubbed Windows 7. He's been super-secretive in contrast to his predecessor, Jim Allchin, who headed the Longhorn development project (ultimately released as Windows Vista).
The blogosphere is abuzz with news of this interview, but like Paul Thurrott and Ed Bott has noted, Sinofsky hasn't really revealed anything at all about Windows 7. Reading between the lines and witnessing the fervor of reporting on this news item, I get the impression that Sinofsky's tight lips are frustrating tech journalists as well as the tech bloggers.
I think Sinofsky's approach is apt. The Longhorn Project was horribly overhyped. When development trouble started rearing its ugly head, Microsoft could only watch as nimble start-ups rolled out Longhorn's promised features to Windows XP. The result: Vista arrived without thunder, and has been unfairly maligned since. A repeat performance for Windows 7 would mean the demise of Windows on the desktop. Silence is the best insurance against failure.

Live Mesh: Week 1
Friday, May 16, 2008 at 12:20 PM
 After living with Live Mesh for most of this business week, I find it to be a significant advance in consumer services in cloud computing. It's an evolutionary advance, but it's welcome.
The ability to connect to devices in your Mesh is very impressive. You can log into the remote computer and operate it as if you're sitting in front of it. And it's better than Remote Desktop Connection. You can connect to Windows XP Home and Vista Home Premium, where Remote Desktop is not included. Its support for remote screen resolutions is amazing. Even my primary Vista workstation with two monitors displays the entire desktop area. And here's the kicker, you can copy and paste files between the local and remote computers. Very cool, indeed.
The Live Desktop and synchronization features among the Mesh devices are handled quite well. It even allows you to set the location of the Mesh folder on each workstation, and it allows you to subsequently move a folder without severing its sync connections. Only one problem, so far: QTTabBar on my XP workstation would crash Windows Explorer repeatedly while Mesh was running. I uninstalled QTTabBar, and all seems harmonious again.

Live Mesh: Day 1
Monday, May 12, 2008 at 5:22 PM
I just received the invitation to join Windows Live Mesh. First impression: This service is very cool. After installing software to manage synchronization and remote connections, you log in with your Windows Live account. Then you add your devices (computers for now, smart phones are supposedly imminent).
There's a Live Desktop where your files live in the cloud and automatically sync to your added devices. These folders magically appear on your devices' desktops. Double-click the file and the syncs begin. Know others on Live Mesh. You can add them as a member of your sync folder(s). Collaboration tools include updates on folder activity, so you know what was done, by whom, and when.
You can also remotely connect to and control any of your devices (after the Live Mesh software has been installed). This is great and works well.
I have other devices to configure and add to my Mesh. I'll let you know how that goes.

Windows Live Mesh ... View of the Future?
Wednesday, May 07, 2008 at 7:23 AM
Recently, Microsoft has rolled out a series of new offerings that it categorizes as Software-plus-Services (S+S). Others call it "cloud computing," a term I think Microsoft is wise to avoid. The brand name is Windows Live Mesh. Currently in invitation-only beta, Mesh includes management services for devices, remote connections, shared folders, and collaboration usage updates. All big nebulous terms, but the offerings are compelling. And they might offer real insight into the future of computing.
I don't have an invitation to join. Once I have access to Mesh, it will probably kick off the next section of this Web site which will be dedicated to Web-based services.

Disk Defragging ... A Waste of Time?
Monday, May 05, 2008 at 12:34 PM
In the June 2008 issue of Maximum PC, there is an article with a surprising conclusion about hard disk defragmentation. There are a lot of opinions on this subject and a lot of products with solutions for it. Maximum PC's testers say don't bother.
While I agree that performance gains are minimal or even nonexistent, I believe that an optimized hard disk drive is a good thing. Having all the files grouped in a contiguous fashion once a month is an easy chore.
Just don't pay for it! I really like Defraggler. It's made by the good folks at Piriform, the makers of the invaluable CCleaner.

Vista "Back Door" Rumors ... False!
Wednesday, April 30, 2008 at 7:33 AM
Okay, folks. This repeatedly pops up about every other year: Windows has a "back door" to bypass security, and Microsoft gives the "keys" to law enforcement.

Microsoft Will Leapfrog Vista
Monday, April 21, 2008 at 11:28 AM
Tech Republic's Jason Hiner has written a compelling article predicting what Microsoft will do with Windows Vista and the impending release of Windows 7 (the next version of Windows).
I really appreciated his stroll down Memory Lane. If you have the nagging feeling that Windows history is repeating itself, Hiner makes it clear. Windows users clung to Windows 98 and shunned Windows 2000. And even Windows XP had a rough start.
Hiner suggests consumer licensing would adopt a subscription model much like business volume licensing and MSDN subsriptions. He even suggests an advertising option in which consumers would have a dedicated portion of the OS for online advertisements. While nothing is impossible, my bet is that consumers would avoid constant advertising on the desktop. But you never know. Free is a great price.
Hiner also predicts that Microsoft will work much more closely with vendors to develop a comprehensive collection of high-quality device drivers for Windows 7. And he's right. If the next generation Windows is released with anything less that stellar hardware support, then it will be a devastating blow to the Microsoft and the Windows-related industry. A blow so severe that the idea Windows could be replaced as the leading OS would be very plausible.
Anyway, Hiner's article is worth your time. I strongly suggest reading it.

Opera Web Browser: Not Ready for Prime Time??
Saturday, April 19, 2008 at 7:46 AM
The other day, I decided to install Opera's desktop browser. If the experience went well, I figured I would add Opera to this site.
The first site I visited was Yahoo! Mail. I was flabbergasted that that site did not render properly, and composing an email was horribly awkward. Needless to say, the Opera uninstall routine was the next action I initiated.
How can it be that Opera is not capable of handling a site as popular as Yahoo! Mail? Opera has been around for a very long time. I applauded them when they made their browser free, but I keep finding their products lacking.
I hope they shape up before the fat lady sings. Pun intended.

Windows Service Packs: History Repeats Itself
Wednesday, March 26, 2008 at 12:52 PM
In his blog, Paul Thurrott linked to a beautiful article written by SBS Diva.
It describes the negative reaction IBM has had to Service Pack 1 for Windows Vista: How it breaks software and how resolving these issues requires advanced techniques, like editing critical entries in the Registry.
And as soon as the Vista detractors are nodding their heads in full stride, she pulls the rug out from under them. SBS Diva had simply replaced "XP" with "Vista" and "Service Pack 2" with "Service Pack 1."
So the techies that attack Vista and run to the safety of XP SP2 were once claiming XP SP2 an "unmitigated disaster."
History repeats itself.
Quite frankly, Vista doesn't offer any objectively compelling reason to upgrade from XP, in my opinion. But I do NOT believe Vista should be avoided. It's just another operating system, folks. It's not perfect, but it's not a disaster, either.

Be Cautious of Some Firefox Add-Ons
Tuesday, March 04, 2008 at 7:17 AM
Mozilla Firefox is a favorite among power users. It's not targeted by malicious hackers like Internet Explorer. It's not bloated with dozens of unused features. And it's cooler than Microsoft's ubiquitous browser.
One aspect of Firefox that many really like is support for third-party add-ons. These applets integrate with Firefox providing additional functionality or information. There's add-ons to control iTunes, fetch local weather forecasts, or analyze developer code.
Amongst the cornucopia of applets is the danger of malformed code or interoperability problems. Bad code can cause mysterious behavior, memory leaks, and program crashes. An example of an interoperability problem would be an add-on that works fine by itself, but starts to cause problems when another add-on is installed.
I'm not advocating an add-on boycott. I'm simply suggesting that you be cognizant of this issue and remember it when you need to troubleshoot Firefox problems if they occur.

Cloud Services: Web-Based Computing Becomes Compelling
Thursday, February 28, 2008 at 12:47 PM
There's a lot of talk about "Cloud Computing," and to me it's a poorly defined buzz word. I'm not going to bother defining it. You can Google it and research that debate.
Technologies are emerging and converging that allow average users to take their digital lives wherever they go. Once the luxuries of businesses and the affluent, now laptops, MP3 players, smartphones, and wireless broadband services are affordable for most anyone. As we adopt this lifestyle, applications tied to a single computer (like Outlook email) is starting to feel too restrictive to our mobile lifestyles.
Therefore, I'm considering expanding downseven to include free Web-based (or Cloud) services. If you have ideas on this, please share (downseven @t live dot com).

Evolution: A Compelling Outlook Replacement
Tuesday, February 26, 2008 at 6:46 AM
I ran across an interesting open source venture that allows Evolution email/PIM application to run under Windows. Evolution is a powerful and feature-rich email and personal information manager this is extremely popular on Linux distributions. It apparently works very well interfacing with Outlook users. That alone is big news. Thunderbird has been around for a while, and it doesn't offer an enterprise feature set like Evolution does.
Currently, the Windows version of Evolution is not what I would call ready for primetime. Therefore, I won't be including it in my Freeware Library. But I know many people would like to learn more about Evolution for Windows and perhaps experiment with it.
Here's where you can learn more about it.

Access the SD Card in Your Palm Device
Tuesday, February 19, 2008 at 5:08 PM
I just bought a Palm Centro smartphone. True to my Luddite nature, I don't use it for Internet (just US$180/yr I just don't need to blow).
Since buying the thing, I've been looking for a way to access the Micro SD Card installed in the Centro from my Windows PC. Astonishingly, Palm does not come with this feature, and removing the battery cover to install/eject the card is a PITA. So I looked high and low for a free utility to pull off this feat.
After nearly buying a US$12 app, I finally found Palm File Browser, which is free!
It's not nearly as elegant as the commercial alternatives, but it gets the job done and is easier than disassembling the Centro to get at the pinkynail-sized memory card. It requires an app on both the Palm device and on Windows. But PFB allows direct access to the Palm device's internal memory (something the commercial alternatives lack).
To connect, I had to experiment and found that Configure Port should be set to 115200 on the Palm and to USB (Palm) 115200 on the Windows app.
It's a nice feeling when my penny-pinching ways pay off.
