Today I just downloaded the Microsoft Windows 7 Beta (2.44GB) which BT at around 1.30MB/s. I tested it under VMWare 5 Workstation Virtual Computer running with 2 CPU (AMD X2 4200), 1 GB RAM and 16GB HDD. The installtion quite fast, it just like installing XP. After the first boot up, I can’t believe that similar functionality like the stupid Vista BUT the performance is far more better. Please note that this is running in virtual enviroment and ment to be a bit slower than running on real machine. The interface is far impress than the Vista. I bet this time MS doing a real good job, when the full version come up, I definitely will replace my XP with it. The most important part is I can’t wait to test my ATI X4850 with DirectX 10!!!
Good job, MS!!!

All the photos I took using my new iPhone 3G gone 
This morning, I found my iPhone 3G (firmware 2.0.1) looks like something wrong, all the music on it seems missing. I have been trying to re-sync it for so many times, it seems the files are there but just not showing on the iPod on iPhone.
Finally in the afternoon I saw there is a firmware 2.0.2 for update, so I try to update it but the problem stay the same, no music at all.
Then I start to do the restore, I thought the backup is working all right so I didn’t go and backup my photos (which actually the backup process will not back it up anyway, I have to use Picasa to copy the photos but I forgot to do it), the restore seems going all right.
The next thing my nightmare came, the backup set actually not working (which is only for 2.0.1) and now I lost all my SMS and Photos (contacts, calendar and email is all right because real copy are in my Outlook).
Damn it stupid Apple, what kind of backup and restore you are doing…you make me feel so unhappy

Just download and install the Internet Explorer 8 Beta 1. After I restart my PC and first run it, everything seems all right. When I started to make a blog post in here (wordpress standalone), the IE8 Beta 1 just CRASH!!! and for 3 times it said CONFLICT with the Google Toolbar I have when using the IE6, lol, why they want to push Google away???
Ok, so I remove the Google Toolbar for IE, then try to write new post in blog here again, this time just run OK BUT all the CSS and layout went wrong. Hmmm, when I download this IE8 Beta 1, it stated for professional and web developers, but seems like they still want to keep their own CSS and layout with not compatible to other browsers in the market (at least Firefox, Safari and Opera always quite similar in working with CSS and Layout)
A bit dissapointed with the new IE8 Beta 1. Oh ya, I don’t like Vista, so I never use the IE7, now I know my decision is correct, stay with IE6 until the 7 and 8 both stable
