POPSThe iPhone is Apple's solution to the Enterprise Even though most every one agrees when it comes to Apple and Enterprise, the iPhone is helping Apple reach into Enterprise. Apple had only had 1% in Oct. 2006 and jumped to 4.5 just 9 months later. It is no coincidence that the iPhone was announced in Jan. 2007 and started shipping that summer. This is significant because Enterprise adoption of Mac's had been at a stand still.

POPSNo Flowers for 9/11 Victims, Stones Thrown at Buses Last week Freddy Thielemans, the Socialist Mayor of Brussels, had prohibited the 9/11 demonstration near the Brussels WTC towers. Mr Thielemans banned the demo arguing that the Brussels WTC towers are situated near an immigrant neighbourhood and that it is inappropriate to hold such a demonstration during Ramadan. An appeal against the Mayor’s ban was rejected by the Council of State, Belgium’s highest administrative court. Last year, Mr Thielemans also banned a demonstration in remembrance of the 9/11 atrocities. When the demonstration went ahead anyway, the police savagely beat up the demonstrators and arrested most of them, including Mario Borghezio, an Italian MEP (member of the European Parliament) for the Lega Nord. Mr Borghezio’s arrest led to an official complaint from the Italian government and to Belgium formally apologizing and assuring that in future it will do “everything possible to guarantee the immunity of MEPs.”

POPSGizmo's Top Picks Of The Best Tech Resources And Utilities
Zero-cost, three-step procedure if your PC might have become infected as the result of installing a program you downloaded. (a) First, upload the installation file of the program you installed to Jotti.org for a free scan. Jotti will then run it through more than a dozen malware scanners and let you know if there is a problem. If Jotti determines that your file is clean, it doesn't mean that there is no infection. It simply means that it's unlikely there is an infection, and that folks, is a very comforting finding. (b) Download and run the free Panda Rootkit detector . Again, a clean scan is not a 100% guarantee of no infection, but should add greatly to your confidence. Panda doesn't run on Vista, so Vista users should use the BlackLight anti-rootkit scanner instead. (c) Finally, download HijackThis from this page , and follow the instructions on the same page which tell you how to create a log that you can paste to web forums.
