Windows 7 for 40$ - what about this ?

i received this email 
"This is not the retail version from the store shelf, but it is the one that Microsoft gives out at IT Professional Conference Meetings to Engineers and Sales Professionals who are invited to come to these meetings.
 Since it does not have the "Activation" policy files attached to the disk,it was not sold to the public,instead it is used to promote their software which is a regular practice with Microsoft Corp.
 It is not a beta version, trial version, pre-release or anything like that.
Although this is a copied DVD and not an "official Microsoft disk" it works exactly the same,and has even more benefits since it has no activation files, it can be installed unlimited times on as many computers as you like which is a big plus! "
etc - 
this is not  1st April joke i swear

What they're describing is illegal, and it's SPAM, and probably nefarious. Don't open anything in it.

  • F-4 Key on Windows 8.0 what is this function for?

    I accidentally pushed F-4 Key by itself, and my screen was wider and something pop up on the right side of my screen that had 4 choices of ???  My question is what is this function for??  And after I push it again it went back to normal.  I would also like to know what the other functions are for on top row F-1 to F-12 and yes I am a new user to this laptop from HP.  I know there is also windows + keys commands and I am interested in knowing more about what goes on with my pc.  F-3 has a icon that looks like a light, and yes I have a lot to learn,  Thanks in advance for anyone who wishes to give me help on these matters.

    Hi,
    On the top of F4 key, you should see a screen symbol and normally (w/o preesing F4) this will output to an external monitor. For Fn+F4, please read the following article:
        http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=c00294488
    What is your machine ? Depeinding on the model/product of your machine, some keys my line up a bit difference but you can see symbol on each key and work this out. For example F2 and F3 are for brightness, F5 for backlit keyboard (not all machines). F6 to F11 for sound/video and F12 for wireless. On your machine, some keys may be swapping around but basically they all have one symbol each.
    Regards.

  • Hey What About This Idea

    I tried to find an earlier post about this, and I didn't see anything. I apologize if it has already been discussed.
    How about a "Tab in Tab" browsing feature being added. In other words, having the ability to view two (or more) tabs at once. It comes up for me all the time. I am browsing on one tab, and I am waiting for something to happen in another. It would be great to me if I could see a small version of the one tab while I was browsing for other things in the other tab.
    Thoughts?

    Ahh! But I don't want a thumbnail. I want a live page.
    i.e. I play chess online. I can do a search for another player that can sometimes take some time. While I am waiting it would be nice to be able to browse in another tab, but currently if I am viewing another tab, I have no idea what is happening in the first tab.
    Or suppose I am waiting for a file to finish downloading, or a movie to start playing, etc.

  • What about this case?

    http://www.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=512159#
    it seems like a pretty slim fitting case. i am just really intrested in a better grip. what about that one?

    Morning Alex,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For troubleshooting on this, take a look at this article:
    iPhone: Sound muffled or low from the speaker or when speaking into the mic.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1631
    Resolution
    Check the following:
    Check the volume setting on your iPhone. You can adjust the volume by pressing the volume up and down buttons on the left side of the iPhone.
    If you are using a third-party iPhone case, make sure it is not covering the speaker, microphone, or top microphone. Try making some calls without the case to see if a caller can now hear you more clearly or play music to see if the speaker's volume is better.
    If you have not removed the plastic display film used for protection during shipment, either ensure that the microphone and speaker are not covered or remove the film completely.
    Check that the speaker, microphone mesh covers, and top microphone hole are not clogged with lint or other debris.
    If the speaker, microphone mesh, or top microphone (iPhone 4 only) appear clogged, please use a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush to clean them. To do this follow these instructions:
    Use the brush to carefully and gently brush the speaker and microphone mesh.
    Brush away from the 30-pin dock connector to avoid getting any debris into the dock connector.
    Hope this helps,
    Mario

  • For (; true; ) - what is this?

    Hi, I asked a questiona while back, and got a reply consisiting of some code. Instead of just blindly including it in my program, I would like to fully understand what the code does.
    Although, doing this I'm a bit confused over the following line of code;
    for (; true; ) {
    shown below on line 2. What is this line actually doing for the program. Can't seem to find out by reading any of my books! Thanks!
    while((line = reader.readLine()) !=null) {
       for (; true; ) {
          pos = line.indexOf(searched, pos + 1);
          if (pos >= 0) {
             count++;
          else {
             break;
    }

    else {
    break;
    Even worse, the code above completely ignores what a for- or while-loop really should be. This is probably what causes your confusion. The loop as described says "Always loop. If a certain condition is no longer met, break out of the loop", where a real while-loop would say "Loop as long as a condition is met".
    Also, the construct used in the outer while-loop is quite ugly as well. Let me try to rephrase that.line = reader.readLine();
    while (line != null) {
      pos = line.indexOf(searched, pos + 1);
      while (pos >= 0) {
        count++;
        pos = line.indexOf(searched, pos + 1);
      line = reader.readLine();
    }Please note that pos is apparently global (relative to this loop, at least) which doesn't seem like good practise to me either, but to each his own.

  • What about this black border around my movie?

    I've just started learning about iMovie. With a Canon Digital I've shot some test footage. Thing is, some of the clips have a black border around the entire movie where other clips have no border top and bottom but do have side borders. What gives? Many thanks.
    Mac Powerbook   Mac OS X (10.4.1)  

    The problem sounds like it could be an issue with what format you selected for the project when you first created it. iMovie gives you a choice of DV, DV Widescreen, HDV 1081, HDV720, MPEG-4. If you choose one format for your project, but the camera is not set for that particular format, you will see the black bars appear on the sides or around the top of your image.
    Which Canon camera are you using? Check to see what format the camera is recording, and make sure your new project matches this.

  • What about this Ram?

    I want to upgrade my mbp 2011 ram to 8GB.
    Is this a good quality ram ?
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/Kingston-Technology-Apple-8GB-Kit/dp/B001PS9UKW/ref=sr_1 _1?ie=UTF8&qid=1312031082&sr=8-1
    Do i void apple's guarantee by changing it by my self?
    Is there any better ones for that price or the same quality for a lower price?
    Any help appriciated.

    Alexandros
    I've read that people like Crucial and OWC.  Another good chice is Kingston is another good choice. I personally bought the Corsair because of the price. Remember different people have different experiences with the various manufacturers of RAM. So opinions differ. Many had mixed reviews about the Corsair. But for me and for my new 2011 MBP it has been great. Just remember you need the 1333Mhz DDR3. What I learned was Apple puts Samsung RAM in the 2011 MBP. That's what was in mine when I replaced. The final choice is yours to make. Hope this helps. One other thing whatever RAM you choose don't forget to do the memtest once you install it. The easiest way to do this is to download Rember it is a GUI front end for memtest. It is free to use. A final note, be extremely careful how you unpackage the RAM you buy, and be sure to seat it firmly when you replace it. You can do it yourself it is not difficult at all. Takes about 10-15 minutes. You'll need a #00 phillips head screw driver to remove the screws on the bottom of your MBP. Remember too by adding more RAM it will increase slightly the operating temperature of your MBP, but not significantly.
