My Experience With Ubuntu Linux

A few days I installed ubuntu Linux. There has been a lot said about this particular distribution, so I decided to see what all the fuss is all about. So far I’m impressed. It looks great, its very fast, there is a lot documentation out there when I was looking for help.

Office 2007 Rocks!

A couple of months ago, I managed to get “my hands on” Office 2007. I didn’t use it that much, I either use OpenOffice.org, or Google Doc & Spreadsheet (web based), and both of them have treated me well so far. From the first time I opened up the new Office, I fell in love […]

No Firefox, No IE7, Its Still Opera for Me

Firefox just released their final (or third) version of Firefox 2.0, in about the same time Microsoft released IE7.

New iTunes Review

Well I downloaded the new iTunes 7.0 yesterday. Its way better than any previous version of iTunes. Basically whenever Apple updated the program, there would be no changes, except if a new ipod comes out or something. Since I first used iTunes (2 years ago) there hasn’t been any major changes as this one.
The first […]

Review: Opera 9 Browser

As I said earlier, I was willing to try another browser, I have read many good things about Opera 9, so I decided to give it a try, and I am in love with it..
I was getting tired of FireFox, I don’t know why exactly, but mainly because I believe that its heavier on the […]
