VGA cable cannot handle 1920*1080 (MAX 1600*1200) For that you need newer connector like DVI, which toshiba satelite u300 doesn't support. So you have to run @ 1680 x 1050.

One of the most amusing things during Windows 7 development was the Internet Explorer story, when MS offered Windows 7 with removable IE, i was very happy and i was thinking sure this will make EU happy as well. It turns out that the EU wanted much more, and even removing IE completely from...

For fun also :D

Now that 7 RTM'ed .. I am bit disappointed and i am having Postpartum depression :( No more leak builds ... no more wait .... no more "one more thing" .... Will .... this is live ... moving on ...

I stopped using XP as my main OS three years ago, and there is no turning back. Now i only use XP at work inside VM to support users ( I work on the IT). As for Business , My company skip vista (except for few users) and we are considering partial deployment of 7 with the next patch of PC...

You have to keep in mind, that this is an internal deadline set by Microsoft, and lots of project get delayed because of QA (including open source projects like Firefox), i think Microsoft will not miss it's public date (October).

Will ... you can buy netbooks these days for $200 ..... so software is more expansive than hardware now ... Wow I think it should be something like $49 upgrade,$99 full. this way it's fair for both M$ and the customers ..... Beside a lot of people care less about post-buy support , i think M$...

Why buy Windows physically any more! unless you don't have broadband , you can buy it legally online (for much less, if you know where to look) download it and get the key. See to me waste of packaging,storing,shipping... etc.

Well if it's a pain ... then it worth it .... the idea of inheriting all my previous windows issues and end up with bloated and sluggish system is the real pain to me. I do clean install all the time, i usually drink coffee and watch TV (or use my other PC) while doing this, all my data in...

What's wrong with Clean Install people, it's fast,easy and will give you the best installation possible with less issues. And you will have fresh clean windows in your hand to shape to what every you like :). Bonus: fresh wallpaper

With bulid 7260 (RTM escrow) MS started the RTM builds, and it's only few day before the final RTM build is compiled (if not already, 7262?). So why MS will wait 4 months (Third a year) for the General availability!, I mean they will miss Back-to-school season that way! Side note: why MS still...

I will not install this one ... i will wait for the build that will come in next week. To early for the RTM .... maybe RTM-escrow.

Why I love Windows over Mac OS X 1. I can install it in any thing i want .... from branded PC's to self assembled PC's .... to MAC it self. 2. I can configure/tweak windows the way i like, i am a power user and i need to customize things to the last bit. 3. I use Firefox for the Add-ons ( i...

I am not sure, but i thing this is because they drooped PPC support and gone to 64-bit native, so no need to make there app "Universal binary" any more (That alone save half of the bits :)) I think this is one of the most important transfer windows 8 need to do (drop 32-bit and go native 64-bit...

I hate how apple always trash windows, and they use Vista bad reputation to trash windows 7. will guess what your "Snow Leopard" is another version of "Leopard".
