Review - AOL Instant Messenger for Windows
7.2.6.1 (Mar 13, 2010)

There is many ideas underway, making AIM even more powerful. First step was integrating Facebook stream and chat. Second was making it light. Now if you don't have access to the client of your choice or not on your own machine.
** Requires Flash 9 or higher **
Try the web edition http://o.aolcdn.com/aim/....1.4409/WidgetMain.html.

However I would like to see AOL Radio added, as a TAB on the messenger.

Review - JavaHMO
2.4 (Jan 8, 2009)

Following the Tivo HME developer release came JavaHMO an upgrade from Tivo Desktop designed to give an enhanced user experience. The ability to listen to all your mp3 and favorite Shoutcast stations, Check your email, stocks, View your desktop, Current Events, RSS, and more. The install is a smooth install, but can prove to be a bit bumpy with port access depending on use of firewall controls from Internal & External use. From my experience, the bitstream broadcasting on Tivo's beacon can last for hours but can put a little strain on system resources hard drive activity during mp3 feeds. Results will vary on hardware. Note, Ver 2.4 was the last release all further development was pushed on Galleon.

Product has come a long way since it's first revision. Also, there are two copies of the product this is the free version, but the pro is one for purchase.
Review - Microsoft Windows Vista (32-bit)
Beta 2 (Jun 8, 2006)

End of Line -- It would appear that only high end pc's that run 800 mhz are allowed to use this new technology unlike the XP model that was backwards compatible with the intel x86 processors. I ran into 2 problems i have a 300 mhz running XP Pro with a DVD-CDRW drive not a dvd rw. Instructions for the the .iso said to burn to a dvd. oh well. Have fun downloading the image.

This will most likely help get ChromeBooks in more hands, by having a powerful developer / designer / builder in their pocket it's anybody's guess what comes next. Next stop yanking the permit from iOS to exist by pushing Android faster.

Correct me if I am wrong, but if a user switches to a secure DNS server outside of the ISP then privacy is still in place. But if you use an ISP dns you are at the mercy of it's services and it has full access to you since it's pre-authenticated? Am I on the right track or getting mixed up with proxies?
