There is an interesting news related to windows xp, actually it is a bit late, but anyway it still good enough to share.

"Microsoft has given yet another reprieve to its seasoned Windows XP operating system. The cut off date for PC makers to obtain licenses for the software was 31 January 2009. But now Microsoft has put in place a scheme that will allow the hardware firms to get hold of XP licences until 30 May 2009. Previously Microsoft extended XP’s life until 2010 - provided it was installed on netbooks and low-cost laptops.

Windows XP was originally due to disappear off shop shelves on 30 January 2008. It was to be removed so as to make way for Windows Vista which went on sale to consumers early in 2007. Despite Microsoft’s claims that Vista has sold well, consumers have reacted badly to its release.Microsoft granted the reprieve largely because of customer’s preference for XP.

Many PC makers also got around the restrictions by exploiting a clause in Microsoft’s licensing terms that allowed them to offer a "downgrade" licence. Issued with a new PC running Vista it allowed customers to replace it with XP. The latest reprieve affects PC makers and resellers who were working to a 31 January 2009 deadline to order licences for XP.

Many feared they would have to stockpile licences before the cut-off and hope they could sell them in the coming months. Now, Microsoft has changed the terms allowing the resellers to order before 31 January but take delivery at any time up to 30 May. The change in policy is another indication of the general resistance to Windows Vista. Early versions of Windows 7, the replacement for Vista, are due to appear in late 2009."

One more year have passed, among those many years in my life, this one perhaps the toughest year that I’ve ever had. In this year there was a time when I thought I’ve reached the end and it’s time for me to packed my dreams away.

But somehow I realized that is what life is all about, how could I be a better person if I am busy hiding from my self, afraid of what will come. As a moslem that is not good things to do.

So instead of whining about how hard this life would be, I should have be more grateful for every air that breathe, foods and beverage that I consumed and everythings God gives me.

And for all that might happen every single years to come there is one thing for sure, I have setled for less and now I am ready for more, I will try to turn the tide and find the streght to take that step of faith. So there is a chance that I am made of more than my yasterdays.

So, marhaban 1 Muharram 1430 H, and Happy new year to all Moslem across the globe.

For any of you that uses Microsoft Windows XP as an operating system, how often did we seen this one on our computer screen before ?

quite often I supposed. Well actually it was provided by Microsoft as a part of their Online Crash Analysis, which gives them a way to identify and resolve the problems that happened. Unfortunately this kind of things does not worked on piracy windows that most of people uses on their personal computer. So even if you had an internet connection, it is no use. Since it useless, how about we get rid of it once and for all.

Go to Control Panel -> Performance and Maintenance -> System -> Advanced tab -> Error Reporting button -> click on Disabled button.
