So it looks like Microsoft is going to support XP for 6 more years, until 2014. So if you've bought a Vista equipped PC recently, you gotta ask : "So pano na ngayon ang binayad ko sa Vista?!"
Mind you, this isn't a pro - Linux or pro - anything rant. I don't own a Vista [...]
I love it that VMWare stock is doing well in the U.S. stock market right now. I've often wished I could play in that market if I had the chance, particularly during Apple new product situations and occasionally, a few web services in the past that I thought would do well (although I'm not gonna [...]
Yes I'm still talking about the Taiwan earthquake and resultant Internet mess. And the fact I am still on it means I am starting to get angry. And if you deduce that when I say I am starting to get angry it means I will huff and puff but do nothing but write on my [...]

That's [...]
From Pinoytechblog: ICAP chooses Ability Office. I first read about it or Bernie Janda's blog here.
The reaction from PTB has been expectedly fierce, saying in effect that ICAP was out of its mind to choose that in lieu of Openoffice, and hinting at under the table arrangements.
