Xbox 360 Japan price slashed 13%

Korabi — Tue, 23 Oct 2007 15:13:36 +0000

Microsoft has never successfully entered the gaming market of Japan. From the beginning of Xbox and now Xbox 360, Microsoft has always done badly. The sales record of Xbox 360 is worst than the selling rate of PS2 now.

Microsoft Japan has decided to cut down 13% of the price. Not only due to recently, Sony also announced that there will be a cheaper 40GB PS3 coming to the market. But also, the Christmas season is coming soon. More discount and annual sales are expected the strategies to boost the sales. However, we hope the 13% off will expand to world wide. But also, Microsoft please fix the red ring of death too.

Windows Live Translator

Korabi — Mon, 10 Sep 2007 17:21:17 +0000

When Microsoft Live released so many things at the same time, most of the users includiing me have totally confused which is suitable for us, which is not? Especially, two days ago, after I downloaded and installed Windows Live Writer, the installer becomes very clumsy and asking me to install bla bla bla others Windows Live software products.

So, today I found out that Microsoft has just including a new services to their Live members – Windows Live Translator. You can access the site throught translator.live.com, translate.live.com or even windowslivetranslator.com. Sound like Microsoft prepare too many urls that actually are pointing to the same location.

How the quality? After trying it, I still don’t feel I love any Windows Live web interface. They should find someone who knows design to redo it again. The translation is working well, but they still have a great work to catch up with Google.

Microsoft OOXML Rejected

Korabi — Wed, 05 Sep 2007 10:03:39 +0000

OOXML stands for Office Open XML. PC users who used Microsoft Office 2007 should familiar with this as it is the default file format. Recently, Microsoft has tried to get OOXML standardize by ISO.

Although, at the first round Microsoft successfully to get 74% support from the voting members. But only 53% of the voting P-members support it. To win it, one should get 2/3 of the votes. Many national bodies have also voted against this standard. The reasons are due to the date format, languages support and compatibility to the existing standard.

More disadvantages of the OOXML is because of the cost. Competitors like openoffice.org offer the same feature on document formats and also are free.

Free Windows and other software CD Key Give Away

Korabi — Mon, 23 Apr 2007 23:53:17 +0000

Thanks for the power of search engine, now you are able to easily search cd key by just typing

intitle:”Belarc Advisor Current Profile” “Software Licenses”

The reason behind this is because Belarc Advisor is a software that is able to show a profile of all the software you installed on your desktop and of course with the cd key. And it will generator the information into HTML code. This allows you to upload your profiles onto internet directly. I would say only careless end user without notice posting their generated result will cause this.

Xmas is around the corner. Do you want to convince your kids that there is really Santa Claus at northpole? Now, you just need to add northpole@live.com on your windows messenger live. Then Santa will reply you.

After all, I think this is kinda silly. But it’s still a good trick to bluff your kids, especially kids now a days all more mature than the older generation. But I don’t think Santa will send you any gifts.

For spammers, maybe you want to spam this Santa’s mail – northpole@live.com

Zune version “Get a Mac”

Korabi — Sun, 17 Dec 2006 10:00:15 +0000

A “Get a Mac” spoof video clip by Microsoft. Microsoft claims that it is easier to upload music onto Zune with just one simple click than Ipod. And not so easy to be scratched than Ipod too. But I still think getting a brown color Zune is not a good idea. There should be other better color for Zune to be.
