Should Microsoft Extend XP’s Life?

Posted by iceman9

Both Windows users in love with XP and those in hate with Vista continue to cry out to Microsoft for clemency, hoping that XP might be spared from the chopping block come June 30th (the last day XP will be sold in stores). Vista’s been out in the wild for a solid year now, but even so, more users than Microsoft could ever have intended still aren’t ready or willing to trade in XP for the shinier, debatably improved upgrade to the Windows line. We consider Lifehacker readers to be very willing adopters when an upgrade is worth it, so we want to know where you stand on the issue.

Prediction: Microsoft will leapfrog Vista, release Windows 7 early, and change its OS business

Posted by iceman9

Microsoft is nothing if not responsive to its customers. In fact, it’s hyper-responsive. That’s why we’ve ended up with feature-bloat in both Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Office as the company has tried to please everyone by including everything-but-the-kitchen-sink in its software.

Posted by iceman9

There have been all sorts of possible explanations as to why WiMAX is not readily available. Most refer to business plans and political issues. Some recent news may very well point to the real reason for the slow rollout. Quite simply, providers are having problems trying to get “big enough pipes” to the cell towers.

Portal-based delegation of network services? You can with iControl

Posted by iceman9

I have found great benefits in using delegation of network services internally. These services include virtual IP addresses for load-balanced Web servers, application servers that run Web services, and systems that have a remote data center or failover capability. The virtual IP addresses, when paired with DNS names, offer great functionality to manage the availability of the applications with their owners. And frequently, changes to these applications are the matters of the business groups and not that of the network administrator. Therefore, enabling a portal for the owners of the applications to move the live node, take one offline for maintenance, or failover administration becomes the natural fit.
