NHL Network to make 2009 All-Star event an HD affair {Engadget HD}
Jan 16th 2009 12:45AM i love americans. they will sit and watch their beloved nfl team loss every single game in the season, but won't fill the stands at their league-leading nhl team's game. (Detroit if you didnt catch the drift).
NHL is the fastest-moving, most intense sport (not including MMA (not a sport)) that you can watch, and for some reason americans seem to watch football and baseball, nothing else.
Microsoft announces availability of Windows 7 Beta and Windows Live {Engadget}
Jan 7th 2009 11:23PM On January 9th, the Windows 7 Beta will be available for Windows enthusiasts to download via the Windows 7 page on Windows.com. The Windows 7 Beta is going to be available download-only (we’re not sending out physical media) and available for a limited time to the first 2.5 million people who download the beta.
The Windows 7 Beta will be available in English, German, Japanese, Arabic, and Hindi, and each language will be available in 32-bit and 64-bit versions (except Hindi which will only be available in 32-bit). Because the Windows 7 Beta will be offered download-only, it will be provided to you as an ISO image (an .iso file) that you download. After downloading either the 32-bit or 64-bit ISO image of the Windows 7 Beta, you will be required to burn the ISO image to a DVD to install Windows 7. So you want to be sure you have a DVD burner before spending the time downloading the ISO image.
To burn the ISO image of the Windows 7 Beta to DVD, if your PC comes with Nero or Roxio products – you should be able to burn the ISO image to DVD. If you don’t already have DVD burning software on your PC, you can also check out ImgBurn which is free and can be downloaded here.
The Windows 7 Beta only supports Windows Vista SP1 to Windows 7 upgrades. So if you intend to do an upgrade – be sure it is on a PC running Windows Vista with Service Pack 1. We are not yet announcing anything regarding finalized upgrade paths for Windows 7.
The Windows 7 Beta will be only available in one edition, which is roughly equivalent the Ultimate edition of Windows Vista.
Also, another important thing to keep in mind is that the Windows 7 Beta will expire on August 1st, 2009.

haha. i loves guys like this. "oh i have extensive knowledge about operating systems." and two lines before that "microsoft is trying to sell me AOL internet.. blah blah blah" haha. no idea whats going on.
anyway. i've had vista since the release date. had no major problems. disabled UAC, cuz i dont need that. so that doesnt bother me. and since SP1 i can say that I've had no problems. nothing unexpected. xp blows.
