Screen Shots



Screen shots- are useful in many ways. For example, if you receive an error message, you can take a screen shot and send your support person an exact replica of the error window, which makes communicating about the error simple. You can also use a screen shot to show someone a Web page without sending them a link. Microsoft uses screen shots to demonstrate how to do tasks within Windows. If you’re helping someone with a computer task or problem, and you can’t be right there with that person, you can use screen shots to illustrate your points through e-mail, instant messaging, or Microsoft Word.

FDISk DOS





MS-DOS FDISK Main MenuMost DOS fdisk programs, including the fdisk program that came with the original Windows 95, are only capable of creating FAT partitions of types FAT12 and FAT16.A derivative of the MS-DOS fdisk was provided with Windows 95, Windows 98, and later Windows Me. Only those fdisk versions shipping with Windows 95B or later are able to manipulate FAT32 partitions. Windows 2000 and later do not use fdisk, they have the Logical Disk Manager feature, as well as DiskPart.Unlike the fdisk programs for other operating systems, the fdisk programs for DOS and Windows 9x/Me not only alter data in the partition table, but will also overwrite many sectors of data in the partition itself. Users must be sure the correct disk/partition has been chosen before using a DOS/Windows fdisk for partitioning.The implementation of fdisk in FreeDOS has many advanced features and is free software.

RadiSys Launches Industry's First Embedded Quad-Core Server Based on Intel's Latest Quad-Core Xeon Processor 1 year 2 months ago --> HILLSBORO, OR - November 13, 2007 - RadiSys Corporation (NASDAQ: RSYS), a leading global provider of advanced embedded solutions, today announced the introduction of a new Procelerant® Quad-core embedded server, the industry's first server to incorporate the latest Intel® Quad-core Xeon® processors. Ideally suited for medical and other imaging, test and measurement, and other digital signal processing applications, the Procelerant RMS420-5000XSL Quad-core server supports powerful image processing at a higher resolution and with greater speed than previous embedded servers.The latest addition to the RadiSys portfolio of high-performance Procelerant embedded servers, the RMS420-5000XSL Quad-core server is a long-life, stable solution designed to provide superior processing for high-quality images, efficient product performance and improved workflow. Multiple cores enable highly efficient parallel processing, allowing users to accomplish multiple tasks simultaneously rather than serially. An exceptionally low level of acoustic noise enables the compact server to be mounted in close proximity to users, an essential in medical imaging applications.Highlights of the new Procelerant RMS420-5000XS Quad-core server:· Supports Dual graphics/co-processor cards for enhanced graphical output and/or accelerated performance.· Quiet, compact server eliminates the need for a separate enclosure to reduce noise · Full RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliance meets European Union regulatory requirements· Greater processing power for the same cost helps manage operating budget"In order to differentiate themselves in today's highly competitive, rapidly changing market, equipment manufacturers need the ability to immediately take advantage of processor improvements when they become available. That's why RadiSys works closely with our imaging customers to ensure that we understand their requirements and have the most powerful products ready when they need them," said Michael Reunert, senior marketing manager, RadiSys. "This latest Quad-core embedded server further underscores RadiSys' ongoing leadership in the development of embedded servers for imaging applications."

You almost had to expect to see an entry from Falcon Northwest on this list. Having long been one of the premier boutique PC shops, Falcon does not disappoint with the FragBook DR 6800A (well, relatively speaking). Probably the closest competitor to Apple in the way of fit and finish, you'd be hard pressed to find many nicer looking laptops. There's a great deal of aesthetic modifications you can have done right at Falcon's factory before the laptop ships.
Inside the FragBook isn't much of a slouch either. Powered by a desktop 2.4GHz AMD Athlon64 X2 4600+, there's a ton of power at your fingertips (and a lot of heat in your lap). Coupled with 2GB of DDR RAM, a 120GB SATA hard drive, and a NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900 displaying 1920x1200 on a 17' screen, you've got yourself quite a system, for gaming or otherwise.
There's not a lot to criticize this system for- save the desktop processor and its heat output, the potential eye strain mentioned previously when coupling a 17' screen with a 1920x1200 resolution, and lack of SLI at this price point. Remember, this article is not really focused on whether or not this is a good system. Every laptop here is kickass. The determining factor is whether the price is justified.
Despite the fact that the laptop is a great performer and has eleventy-billion coats of nice shiny paint that you can comb your hair while looking at, for almost $5,000 it's a bit steep. For that price, I would be looking for SLI and either a Turion64 X2 or Core 2 Duo processor.

Windows Vista: Microsoft's Latest Operating System

New Features
Aero: Windows Vista has a completely restructured user interface. Aero is an acronym for Authentic, Energetic, Reflective and Open. This new user interface is intended to be more user friendly not to mention more appealing to the consumer in that it adds support for 3D graphics, translucency, animation and other visual effects. Also, the Start Menu has changed and the word "Start" has simply been replaced by a blue Windows symbol similar to the Windows key on a keyboard.


Internet Explorer 7(IE7): IE7 is Windows Vista's upgraded version of internet explorer. It is predicted to be equipped with anti-spoofing technology making it more secure for the user to go online.


Windows Defender: Miscrosoft's famous anti-spyware software has been incorprated into this latest version of windows which previously wasn't the case in Windows XP and older versions. Microsoft anti-spyware has proven to be veyr effective in protecting against spyware and other threats.


Speech Recognition: This is another useful feature that is fully embedded into Windows Vista. It has the capability to understand a user's voice, to activate commands in any windows application and to enable voice dictation.


Windows DVD Maker: This feature enables the user to create video DVD's based on their content.


User Account Control: This is a new security feature that enables a user to enter an administrator password (without being logged in as an administrator ) when an action requiring administrative rights is required. Non-administrator user accounts in the previous Windows versions proved to be too restrictive and you had to be logged in as an administrator to be able to download software for example.


Some XP Features Removed: Some noticeable XP features such as Windows Messenger, Net Meeting, MSN Explorer have also been eliminated from this new version.


What Happens to businesses currently using Windows NT, 2000 and XP desktops?


Microsoft is using a large number of features such as the WIM image Format ( a file based disk image format specifically developed for the Windows Vista OS). WIM files contain a copy of Vista and businesses can maintain and patch their older verisons wihtout having to rebuild new images. The WIM files can be obtained from the Windows Vista installation DVD.


What are ths system requirements for installing Windows Vista ?

Windows Vista requires atleast 512 megabytes of physical memory, atleast 3 gigabytes of hard drive space for installation files or possibly more depending on the edition of Windows Vista. In additon, it also requires a modern processor Central Processing Unit (CPU) as well as a Graphics card that has a DirectX 9 class graphics processor.

Different Versions of Windows Vista

Unlike Windows XP that only had two versions notably XP Pro and XP Home Edition, five variations of the new Windows Vista Operating Sytem will be available. These are Windows Vista Business, Windows Vista Enterprise (designed to meet the requirements for massive global organizations), Windows Vista Home Premium, Windows Vista Ultimate and lastly Windows Vista Home Basic (for everyday basic use at home such as checking email).
