30.06.10 | Windows 5,6,7,8!
Windows 7, the latest operating system, from the PC giant ‘Microsoft’ was released July 2009 to a much awaited planet, and was meant to be an answer to the millions of complaints about its predecessor Windows Vista. After all the problems with Vista – the main one being it was too buggy – hit Microsoft hard, and they have tried to look for other ways to improve their operating systems instead of focusing on how good they look (Vista actually means looking good). With Windows 8, Microsoft are planning to copy many of the major features that makes Apple so popular - such as its App store and the way its OS can run on nearly any spec computer.

03.06.10 | The iPad - Just Another Gadget?
What do you make of the new Apple iPad? Sure, it looks cool and funky, but is it actually any good? Will it replace the PC? Or is it just a big iPhone? We're not sure on this. We don't like the fact that you can't play flash videos and we're also not sure about using it on the sofa. Either way, over the coming months I'm sure we will see where it's primary market is.
