  1. Review - Mozilla Firefox for Windows

    8.0 Alpha 1 (Nightly Build) (Aug 5, 2011)

    Keep in mind this is an alpha. my biggest complaint is a lag during scrolling. others have posted similar comments on mozilla's site. other than that, it runs fast and quite well. stability (as expected) is not 100%, and it has crashed on rare occasions. 4/5

  2. Review - ooVoo for Windows

    3.0.4.35 Beta (May 3, 2011)

    Sadly disappointed with the prog. The ads (which are hideous) add insult to injury.

  3. Review - Mozilla Firefox for Windows

    4.0 RC1 (Mar 10, 2011)

    I'm using 4.0b13pre, as well as the new RC on Win7 64-bit without problem. Chrome is slightly faster, but (the gap (particularly for javascript) is closing fast. Both chrome and ff have made major strides for non-IE browsers. I use both.

  4. Review - Mozilla Firefox for Windows

    4.0 Beta 12 (Feb 28, 2011)

    68MB here. Seems fairly stable. Not perfect on html5, but that's a working draft according to the w3c. Follow this link to see how many hard blockers are left.

  5. Review - Pegasus Mail

    4.61 (Feb 23, 2011)

    I loved Pmail, but please let it die a graceful death. 16-bit support? DOS? Win 95? Netware? David Harris was amazing. But unless he has come up with a 32/64-bit program that offers something better than Thunderbird (yes, I know TB is currently 32-bit), then let's remember pmail for the excellent program it was.

  6. Comment - With most stores sold out, iPhones selling for $1,000 on eBay

    There's a sucker born every second...

  7. Comment - Microsoft officially announces cheaper Xbox 360s

    4.61 (Jul 14, 2008 - 8:07 PM)

    They can afford to give these away for free. They make a fortune on the games sold, extra hardware, etc.

  8. Comment - RIM denies delays for its 3G BlackBerry Bold phone

    4.61 (Jun 26, 2008 - 5:11 PM)

    LOL - Yes, Verizon needs the iPhone and the BlackBerry Bold. Let's get with it!

  9. Comment - Is Vista dead in the water?

    4.61 (Apr 11, 2008 - 10:27 PM)

    I had Vista installed on a test machine (dual core, 4GB, extremely fast video card, etc) and when my main machine had a hardware failure, I put the test machine into production. It was slow, would hang, and of course the biggest problem was drivers. I had to uninstall Vista and install XP. So now I have one station with Linux and one with XP. I have no plans to upgrade to Vista now. I find it hopeful that some people here have had success with SP1. I know XP has a little rocky start, but I don't recall if it was as rocky as Vista. Of course eventually we will have to migrate, but not now.
