Microsoft Brings Back Windows 7 ‘Family Pack’

by Computer Ninja on September 1, 2010

Microsoft is bringing back one of the best OS deals around, the Windows 7 family pack! The three-packs will go back on sale October 3rd for $149.99. Microsoft offered such a bundle when Windows 7 launched, but billed it as a limited-time offer. In less than two months, supplies had largely run out. The Windows 7 Family pack will go back on sale on Oct. 3 for a suggested price of $149.99. As before, the licenses are upgrade copies, meaning each computer already needs to be properly licensed for Windows XP or Windows Vista. Comments

AT&T On Net Neutrality

August 31, 2010

You guys seriously have to read this blog post by AT&T vice president Hank Hultquist. You might have to skip all the talk of dogma, pagans, hegemons, faith-based initiatives and other stuff…and even then you’ll probably have to read it twice to figure out what the hell this guy is talking about. The CoENN creed against quality of service states that paid prioritization of Internet traffic: (1) has never been contemplated by standards organizations like the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF); (2) does not exist on the Internet today and, to the extent it exists anywhere, is probably being used nefariously by the pagans; and (3) if it did exist on the Internet, it would be available to and affordable for only a small number of deep-pocketed hegemons.

Foursquare, MTV to Reward STD Checkups With Badge

August 31, 2010
