Now, one week after Windows 7, you can download Windows Server 2008 R2 but only if you are MSDN subscriber. Others will need to wait a little more.
For those who like freebies, Hyper-V Server 2008 R2 will be available very soon.
As for control freaks, Remote Server Administration Tools for Windows 7 are available also. This should fulfill all your management dreams.
Once upon a time I created Windows gadget. Since I wanted to distribute it, I just uploaded it to my site I thought I was done with it. However, once I tried to download it, I got famous 404 “The page cannot be found” message. I double-checked everything and file was there. What wasn’t there is ability of IIS to handle it.
In order for IIS to know what to do with it, there is little piece of something called MIME type. I will not go into deep definitions of it, but it is sufficient to say that “gadget” extension should be defined as “application/x-windows-gadget”. Once that task is done, file can be downloaded without furher problems.
Firebathero is player most known for his rituals after a win. Those rituals usually include dancing, throwing rice, going for a swim or just having fun.
He is both loved by fans and hated by his opponents for this. Usually, this act of his goes unpunished, but sometimes he gets taste of his own medicine.
Bellow is firebathero’s game against Much, a teammate of sAviOr. While this game seems like normal protoss vs terran, it is what happens as game is nearing to end that makes it special. Revenge is sweet.
Here are all parts (1, 2, 3 and 4).
P.S. Yes, I know that this video is quite old, but I am living in past. :)
Michael Schumacher will not rejoin Formula 1 circus because of neck injury sustained earlier this year.
I am Ferrari fan but I never gotten to like Raikonnen much and with Massa not driving, there is no point in even watching a race.
I think that I will go out on ice-cream…
I already wrote about Windows 7 API for virtual disk support (for beta and release candidate).
Just as reminder, this is .NET implementation of Virtual disk Windows API. That enables you to create and attach (and few other things) virtual disks (.vhd) directly from C#.
This version can be downloaded here here. For shorter and more focused view, you can check open and create examples. Although they were written while Windows 7 was in release candidate, they do remain valid.
