Dell to offer Pre-installed Linux Laptos

2007-07-06T14:11:00.000+08:00

David lord, a Dell Spokesperson stated that Dell has been listening to their users and will release Laptops with pre-installed Linux in them, but the question is what type of Linux operating system will be built in, a query that has yet to be answered.
But this has yet to be seen, maybe Dell will just have Linux as an alternative Operating System for their laptop, this might just come in as an option to buyers.
However if this will really be done, aside from the Operating System what other types of programs will be included in the package, if you. the reader might have experienced using Linux Operating system, you might say "OpenOffice", yes this is true, considering it is built in to most Linux OS, but has yet to be decided from Dell's standpoint.
So for users who wants to experience new operating system buying Dell's Linux-Laptops might be a good idea but for novice user using Linux might prove more difficult than manipulating most Windows operating systems.
You will spend most of your time reading forums and treads on how-to tips surrounding Linux operations. You'll be the judge, migrating to Linux might prove to be good considering it is free to download and distribute, but if your the type of user who just do office work and surfing, sticking with Windows will be a good idea rather than using Linux.

Web development

Web development is a broad term that could relate to a development of a website for the internet as well as the intranet. The activities could range from E-commerce business websites, social network services, web design and client/server side scripting.
However the term "web development" usually refers to the non design aspect of the site as web developers tend to focus on the whole coding of the website or back end server side scripting, while the design is usually handled by a secondary graphics specialist unit.
Web developer can also be associated with IT outsource, whom can cater both local and international clients.

Microsot Windows Vista

2007-07-04T19:06:00.000+08:00

I know this is late but I just have to blog about this because not everyone is aware of WIndows Vista and its origins.
Windows Vista is a new line of "Graphical Operating System from Microsoft, Vista can be used in a number media's such as laptops, desktop computers, palmtop computers and media center. Prior from its announcement on July 22, 2005 Vista was disguise with code name "Longhorn" the development of Vista was continued and the final release was made on January 30 2007 worldwide.
Before vista was release it took the team at least five years to come up with a new operating system making it the longest time span between Windows XP and Windows Vista.
Windows Vista is packed with new features, a new graphical user interface and a visual style named Windows Aero and new search features and a DVD creation tool.
But according to Microsoft their primary objective with Vista was to improve it's security this has to proven yet, judging by the bugs and security holes that was present in Windows XP, Vista is just as susceptible to malware, worms and viruses.
I've seen in a news on TV that before the official release of Vista worldwide there have been numerous amount of pirated copies of vista that was sold in China for approximately $5 dollars each a major money saver compared to the original Vista that is sold for at least $100+, not that I condone any acts of piracy.
Windows Vista has yet to be tested and put to the limits, if your are planning to migrate into this operating system remember first that is has a very high systems requirements.

Microsoft Silverlight, a proprietary runtime for browser based Rich Internet Application, Silverlight Aims to compete with Adobe Flash and JavaFX.

So how do you think Silverlight will compete with adobe flash? And what does it offer to the table?

Let’s start out with the basics, what is the difference between a vector based image and a bitmap image?

Vector graphics also called as geometric or object oriented graphics; it operates on vector points, lines, curves and polygons this is used to represent graphics on a mathematical basis, the major difference between them is vector doesn’t posses any pixel’s in them while bitmap is comprise of bitmaps to render an image.

The down side to using bitmaps is when you try to resize or blow up an image from its original size the pixels compensates for the changes by adjusting the pixels in the photo thus reducing the quality of the image significantly.

Major vector based graphics like Flash uses purely vector based images but also posses the capability to import bitmap images upon the users regard.

From the surface you might see them as one in the same, both of them will be used develop and render vector based image and for Rich internet applications, but for me the difference could be present in the programming level, according to Wikipedia Silverlight uses the (dot) net framework this might mean that any programming language can be used to develop applications in Silverlight as long as it belongs in the (dot) net family.

A report surface in the internet that states Microsoft will release the certain parts of Silverlight as open source software this report was quickly denied by Microsoft stating that they have no plans on making Silverlight as an open source software.
