What makes Microsoft to launch Office 2010 version for the Mac?
A survey taken in the fourth quarter of last year by the ITIC/Sunbelt Software group found that more than two-thirds of businesses were open to integrating Macs into the IT infrastructure and more than 50 percent of respondents wanted to further integrate Macs with iPhones.
The recent announcement of an Office 2010 version for the Mac, it\'s understandable that Microsoft wants to take a bite out of money-making Apple. Mac users has been steadily growing in the corporate environment.
These days, it doesn\'t take much to get Windows apps to run on Macs. The reason for this, however, is due less to the development of thick applications by PC software makers and more because of desktop virtualization. With applications like Parallels Desktop for Mac, it is easy to get Windows and respective applications up and running.
In fact, according to information compiled by Wakoopa, a social networking platform that tracks the software most widely used, VMWare Fusion is the 16th most installed application on the Mac. VMware Fusion being, of course, another desktop virtualization product. Web-based applications also are an alternative to a local install of Office for Mac users.
However With all of the cloud-based productivity suites out there ability to use Outlook Web Access, is a local install of Outlook 2010 on Macs. Besides, the next iteration of OS X, Snow Leopard, will have inherent support for Exchange connectivity.

Transcend Extreme Plus 600X Compact Flash memory cards has released in India. Transcend offers the Extreme Plus 600X CF cards in 8GB and 16GB capacities, priced at an MRP of Rupees 8,000 and 16,000 respectively. They carry an international Lifetime Warranty
These new cards are claimed to provide transfer speeds of upto 92 MB/s while reading, and 87 MB/s while writing to the memory card.
Targeted at performance-conscious photographers, these new cards utilize Turbo MLC (multi-level cell NAND flash chips) technology. Transcend claims that this provides the fast performance required for enthusiasts and professional photographers who use digital SLR cameras.
It is said to operate in quad-channel mode, these cards can be up to twice as fast as older 300X cards, which is useful to store high-resolution images, and record videos continuously.
Read More ASUS New Netbook Eee PC 1008HA Seashell Features
ASUS newest and possibly most attractive netbook is latest the Eee PC 1008HA Seashell -- around here as of late, and the slim model\'s gotten plenty of solid reviews in the UK, where it\'s already available.
Nobody can talk about the \'shell without praising its handsome exterior, and with good reason, too: even if you\'re not a fan of a curvy, thinned-out approach, it is most definitely refreshing to see a netbook that doesn\'t just look like every other netbook.
The Seashell boasts pretty standard netbook specs -- 1GB of DDR2 RAM, a 160GB hard drive, and Intel GMA 950 graphics.
Its processor 1.66GHz Intel Atom N280 is slightly better than the N270 crammed into most, and to that end, the 1008HA does, in our experience, boot about 20 seconds faster than the Mini 1000 -- 34 and 54 seconds respectively.
It has just two USB ports, a standard headphone jack, and mini VGA port (which seems to have been chosen over VGA for aesthetic reasons only), all hidden behind those tiny flaps.
To accommodate the lack of VGA port, there\'s a mini VGA to VGA adapter included in the box, and a dedicated magnetic slot to house it on the bottom side of the chassis, a unique solution to what could potentially be an annoying situation, though ultimately we\'d still prefer a full VGA port.
Other than that, the Seashell boasts 802.11 B/G/N Wi-Fi, 10/100Mbps Ethernet, Bluetooth 2.1+EDR, and a high-density, non-removable, lithium polymer battery that supposedly gets up to 6 hours of life.
Read More Intel\’s Two New SSDs with 60 percent less cost and better performance
The yawning gap between SSD performance and HDD performance is behind the push to SSD-specific interfaces on I/O hubs now, like with Intel\'s upcoming Pine Trail platform. The Intel new drives boast a 25 percent reduction in read latency, which was already about 60x speed of an average hard disk write performance also doubled with this new generation.
The two new SSDs are X25M SATA parts weighing in at 80GB and 160GB, and they\'re meant to replace Intel\'s existing X25M drives in those capacities, but at 60 percent less cost and with better performance. The 80GB X25-M is $225 in lots of 1,000 (down from $595), and the 160GB is $440 (from $945). That\'s some serious discounting, and it may well drive even more SSD uptake in the coming quarters despite the ongoing IT spending crunch.
Intel has announced two new solid state disk drives made on its leading-edge 34nm process. It\'s also the case that the 34nm transition was in the works well before the financial crisis. So Intel has gone ahead and brought that capacity online and they\'re going to use it to make what everyone wants right now i.e., cheaper storage, better performances, etc.
Noticeably absent from the announcement is a high-capacity 320GB drive, which many were expecting. A 320GB drive would be an expensive, premium product of the sort that nobody is buying right now so it is not tapped-out consumers. So instead of trying to sell a high-end SSD, Intel took advantage by cut the cost of making its existing flash products so that it could lower the price and sell more of them into a price-sensitive market.
Now Intel could even be making a bit more profit on each drive even while passing considerable savings on to customers.
Read More World\’s Largest Telescope Will be built atop Mauna Kea volcano in Hawaii
Hawaii\'s isolated position in the middle of the Pacific Ocean also means the area is relatively free of air pollution. Few cities on the Big Island mean there aren\'t a lot of man-made lights around to disrupt observations. Hence Hawaii was chosen on Tuesday as the site for the world\'s biggest telescope, a device so powerful that it will allow scientists to see some 13 billion light years away and get a glimpse into the early years of the universe.
The telescope\'s mirror stretching almost 100 feet in diameter, or nearly the length of a Boeing 737\'s wingspan will be so large that it should be able to gather light that will have spent 13 billion years traveling to earth. This means astronomers looking into the telescope will be able to see images of the first stars and galaxies forming some 400 million years after the Big Bang.
Native Hawaiian tradition holds that high altitudes are sacred and are a gateway to heaven. In the past only high chiefs and priests were allowed at Mauna Kea\'s summit. The mountain is home to one confirmed burial site and perhaps four more, and environmentalists oppose the telescope on the grounds it would hurt some endangered species.
Thirty Meter Telescope Observatory Corp. spokesman Charles Blue said that It will sort of give us the history of the universe. The telescope is expected to be completed by 2018, will be located atop a dormant volcano that is popular with astronomers because its summit sits well above the clouds at 13,796 feet, offering a clear view of the sky above for 300 days a year.
The telescope will be built by the University of California, the California Institute of Technology and the Association of Canadian Universities for Research in Astronomy.
The current world\'s largest telescopes also are located atop Mauna Kea, but the size of their diameters is about three times smaller than the Thirty Meter Telescope. Current telescopes also don\'t routinely offer views of hundreds of planets orbiting around other stars and stars that are near the sun like the new telescope will.
A partnership of European countries plans to build the European Extremely Large Telescope, which would have an 138-foot mirror. The group is considering sites in Argentina, Chile, Morocco and Spain. It plans to decide on a location next year and be able to host its first observation in 2018. Another group of universities plans to finish the Giant Magellan Telescope, also around 2018, with an 80-foot mirror in Las Campanas, Chile.
Read More Windows 7 RTM Release Date
Microsoft\'s hardware and software partners will receive copies of Windows 7 RTM starting Aug 16 or Aug 23 2009, depending on which partner program they\'re assigned. OEMs or original equipment manufacturers in other words, computer makers will have Windows 7 in hand approximately two days after Microsoft\'s announcement.
Volume licensing customers, normally large organizations and companies will be able to grab Windows 7 RTM starting Aug 7 if they have an existing Software Assurance plan or if they do not have they will have it on Sept 1.
LeBlanc also confirmed that Microsoft will sell a three-license \"family pack\" upgrade from earlier editions of the OS to Windows 7 Home Premium, but did not flesh out that notice with pricing or timing information. Reports have circulated for two weeks that Microsoft would reprise the multi-license upgrade pack it offered for Windows Vista; at least one reseller has posted the suggested list price as $149.99 on its Web site.
Microsoft will likely announce that Windows 7 has reached release to manufacturing (RTM) status on Wednesday. An analyst with directions on Microsoft Michael Cherry said that RTM almost seems like a non-event and also stressed that he had no special knowledge of when Microsoft would declare Windows 7 finished. But it\'s got to be any day now. The company earlier pledge that it would move the new operating system into its final pre-sale phase, sometime in the second half of July 2009. The importance of RTM has ebbed since Windows Vista.
Consumers and other customers will have their first shot at Windows 7 on its official launch day Oct. 22 2009.

Yahoo launched of its brand new customizable home page, the first major revamp to the page since 2006.
At first glance the organization of the latest home page doesn\'t look dramatically different. But it soon becomes apparent that this is no longer a one-size fits all Web destinations.
On the upper right, you\'ll see the 10 most popular Internet searches. In the middle of the page you\'ll find basic news headline links, a mix of hard news, softer stuff and local news. Near the top of the page (and just below a large Yahoo search box) you can enter your own social networking status. But the biggest deal concerns a My Favorites panel running down the left side of the screen. The list includes the requisite Yahoo properties, including Yahoo Autos, Finance, Mail, and Messenger, among others.. But several third party sites also populate the list, including eBay, Facebook, and MySpace.
The company hasn\'t made any changes to the fully customizable My Yahoo page, which is currently used by about 50 million people. Yahoo plans to roll out the page in France, India and the UK by the end of the week, with a mobile version also coming soon.Currently the new Yahoo home page is an beta; If you like to check the new layout then try this yahoo
Read More Toshiba To Release Blu-ray Players By This Year
Just last week, the Digital Entertainment Group released its mid-year report, and Blu-ray Disc was clearly doing well in spite of the weak economy: Both disc sales and hardware sales are up as compared with last year.
The timing of Toshiba\'s plans actually makes perfect sense. Blu-ray has entered its mass market phase. The format is at a point of growth. Blu-ray player manufacturing costs have fallen off dramatically as compared with a year ago. And the street prices for players are also lower-you can now easily find a player for under $200.
All of these factors were apparently too great for Toshiba to ignore. That said, whether the company jumped into the fray because of Blu-ray\'s worldwide popularity.
Earlier, Toshiba withdrew HD DVD from the market in February 2008 after a series of crippling blows gave rival Blu-ray a clear edge. At the time, Toshiba indicated that, in the absence of HD DVD, it would instead pursue a wide range of technologies that will drive mass market access to high definition content. These include high capacity NAND flash memory, small form factor hard disk drives, next generation CPUs, visual processing, and wireless and encryption technologies.
In light of all of this, the news that Toshiba will produce its own Blu-ray player is actually unsurprising. Still, it is appropriate to wonder aloud why Toshiba would swallow its pride and enter into the competitive Blu-ray Disc player market.
The Blu-ray Disc Association noted that Blu-ray had achieved over 50 percent market share in Japan-clearly that means Toshiba has been leaving potential revenue on the table for its competitors to grab.
