You know, this is when things just won’t work !!
Bill gates was showing a glimp of what Microsoft is up to in CES 2005, unfortunately (or whatsoever) the system just won’t work. :-?
Here is some hilarious quotes in the show:-
BG: I think we are alright, that’s the problem we have the wrong remote control. It’s good thing only have one though.
Host: It’s incredible, i don’t know who is running things here? (he spoke in front of BG. :)) )
Host: Who is incharge of Microsoft? Ow, eRrRr…… (again, he spoke in front of BG.)
Host: I think we should move on, yet again.
BG: Yup.
Host: Hahhahhahahhah …….
Host: That was a powerful “Yup”.
Host: My GOD, Bill said “Yup”, get outta here !! (This is the most hilarious part. ROFL)
Take a look of this Video Clip.
To 64 bit system users,
Anyone of you thinking of upgrading to or “test-drive” Microsoft latest WinXP Professional 64bit system?
If, yes, then you might want to read this preview.
The conclusion is:
Windows XP Professional x64 Edition Release Candidate 2 (RC2) is a rousing technological achievement, a near-perfect migration of Windows XP Professional to a 64-bit code base that doesn’t sacrifice performance for 64-bit capabilities. But while XP x64 is far more compatible with hardware and software than its Itanium-based predecessor, it is also not compatible enough to meet the needs of average users. Therefore, most XP users should stick with XP 32-bit through at least the end of 2005.
If you’re a technology enthusiast with the right hardware, however, XP x64 offers a chance to live on the edge in a way that hasn’t been possible for Windows users since the HCL-wielding days of NT 4. With XP x64, Microsoft has provided a superb technological base for the next several years, one that will likely become the mainstream computing platform during the Longhorn time frame. Like a faraway land full of treasure real or imagined in an age of explorers, XP x64 is there for the brave and foolhardy.

FBI agents in Los Angeles demonstrated current WEP-cracking techniques and broke a 128 bit WEP key in about three minutes.
So, use WPA instead.
