Time to run trusty old windows update and pickup Windows 7 SP1, which has literally just gone live.

In addition to the usual raft of security, performance & stability improvements we can also expect better HDMI audio interconnectivity, and better folder restoration… but will it cure the hit-and-miss content display refresh issues (certainly hope so, or my F5 key is liable to wear out!).

On a serious note it brings RemoteFX & Dynamic Memory to the client side which, specially if you like to virtualise or provide remote support, should be a significant boon.

So expect a hefty download next time you run windows update! (Ours only came in at 87.1MB on a fully patched Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit system, but that standalone patcher is 2GB!!)

Big news, but I have no idea if it is great news or terrible news.

For me, on balance, I think it’s good news, but I suspect many will be horrified.

Anyway, it was bound to happen at some stage, but it looks set to happen very quickly indeed!

Yet another thing to love or hate about the 2012 Olympics!

You can have a real impact on DRM in music today, and cast a vote for a fairer, better, more environmentally friendly music industry, by ordering Radiohead’s new album “King of Limbs” today, directly from their website; http://www.thekingoflimbs.com

Furthermore, the MP3 version of their album is only £6 and the WAV version only £9!

In my humble opinion they not only make great, original, music, but they are leading the way to a better tomorrow for all fans of artist driven music!

Order now to get in on the day of release (I have!) & be part of the continuing music revolution!
