   Review - Foxit Reader

   4.0.0.0619 (Jun 29, 2010)

   I've been using FoxIt happily for a couple years now, until recently. Most pdf that I attempt to open from a webpage hang foxit.
   
   The last straw was Foxit installing an IE and FireFox toolbar, which I can not remove from IE. Onto next free PDF reader. Goodbye

   Review - Mozilla Thunderbird for Windows

   3.1 RC1 (May 28, 2010)

   I didn't know anyone was still using Windows 3.1. I have a very large peeve when betanews labels products like this. Please label as Thunderbird 3.1 for Windows!

   I have 2 questions about this phone and this service provider. 1. Is it really open, meaning, can I write my own software and load it myself? and 2. Will there be a $40 a month data tax to own the phone?

4. Comment - Obama: White House will no longer ignore established science

   Good, they can finally quit wasting our hard earned money on this farce called global warming, er climate change, or whatever they're calling this fraud against mankind this week.
   
   The key to any of this actually working should be a requirement that the so-called "scientists" are NOT receiving ANY government funding/grants!

5. Comment - Windows Server 2008: To keep things stable, you need new hardware

   3.1 RC1 (Mar 3, 2008 - 11:40 AM)

   I'm not that familiar with Vista, but I have used it enough to know the default interface on Server is the Vista interface.
   
   Why contribute to the bloat by including a worthless defragger, if they're going to recommend a 3rd party product anyway?
   
   In my organization, I'm we administer Windows using Remote Desktop, and non-administrators do NOT have access to logon locally.
   
   I've heard rumors of ways to hack Vista to remove UAC, but I have no idea where to find such a setting.
   
   And I searched the power options control panel you mention and see absolutely no option to change the start menu options.
   
   If any/all of these things are possible, then why have they made the interface so hard to use/find things?
   
   I am not an anti-Microsoft person, in fact, I posess many certifications and use their software whenever possible, since I am an MSDN subscriber, but I am anti-Crappy software, which has been my experience with Vista.

   Where is the "classic" Windows 2003 interface? The Vista interface sux on a server! Why include nag box for a server? Isn't everyone an administrator?
   
   Why is shutdown the default button on the start button? How many people shutdown a server, vs just logging off? Why isn't the interface customizable?
   
   And why in the world did they include such a dumbed down defrag tool??
