Everybody has been going crazy about how teh hax0rz have cracked vista registration, and throughout the whole process, Microsoft has been promising to shore up every last one. The problem with shoring up cracks and ensuring security, is the reduction in service. If the KVL server crack is shored up, …

A group of internet pirates have generated a workaround for registration for some specific versions of Vista. Specifically, Business and Enterprise. The secret lies in Microsoft's new key management service (KMS) that allows companies (organizations, etc.) that have a lot of computers running vista, set up a local server for …

Google looks like the next thing it's going to do is take over the world. Or at least, Microsoft. I'm sure you've all heard the rumors about Google creating an operating system, but is it really happening?

Lets face it ! Tweaking gives us the satisfaction...of having done something to beat the system ! There is that urge, esp amongst die-hard tweakers, to squeeze out the last drop of performance ! Frankly speaking, the best "tweak" is to throw RAM at it ! Its one BIG healthy …

Those of you running vista know what I'm talking about. Mine is currently 3.6 but that is because my video card doesn't have drivers, I expect it to goto at least 5.6 once I get those installed (as that is the next lowest number on the page) :cheesy:
