Paul Thurrott’s SuperSite for Windows: Windows Vista Feature Focus: 64-Bit (x64) Support
For the most part, the x64 support in each edition is identical. One exception is that they support different amounts of RAM. Vista Home Basic (and Home Basic N) with support up to 8 GB of RAM, compared to 4 GB for all 32-bit versions of Vista. Home Premium, meanwhile, will support 16 GB. And Business (and Business N), Enterprise, and Ultimate will all support 128 GB or more of memory. (The “or more” bit refers to the fact that there are no client PCs available yet for over 128 GB of RAM; when that happens, these Vista versions will support it.)

Today’s digital cameras pack massive megapixelage, precision optics, and endless shooting modes into a package that fits in the palm of your hand. But it never fails: When inspiration strikes, that trusty camera is back at home, leaving you to make do with your cell phone’s built-in camera. Too bad cell-phone cameras lack the pixels, optics, and processing power of your digicam; pictures come out blurry, off-color, and with horrendous exposure. But with a careful eye and some software help, you can make your cell-phone photos worthy of more than MySpace. Here, we cover fixes for the three most common problems: poor exposure, noise and blur, and off-balance color. Open your photo in Adobe Photoshop Elements (MAC/WIN) or Photoshop CS2 and get ready to impress yourself.

Windows Vista upgrade guide – part 1: software – Engadget
Ok, so here’s how this thing works. We’ll compare XP and Vista on a feature-by-feature basis; we’re not going to judge the merit of these features or whether they’ll be more useful to you and your pals, nor are we going to get into the nitty gritty about what they do — there are just too many — but we will tell you whether or not we think there’s anything better going on in Vista than there was before in XP. So…
- Green indicates something about this has improved
- Red indicates something sucks more than it did in XP.
- White indicates either nothing much has changed, or the features are roughly equivalent.
- Notes help out with a little background, where appropriate, and where available, recommend free software for XP that effectively augments the feature in question.
- Many of the features shown here can be found in our comprehensive Vista gallery.
Paul Thurrott’s SuperSite for Windows: Microsoft Office 2007 Review
I can’t recall ever being this genuinely excited about a Microsoft Office release. Office 2007 is one of those rare software releases that just nails it. This is the type of claim one typically hears about fun consumer electronics products from Apple Computer, not supposedly tired productivity applications from Microsoft. But Office 2007 is a home run, an absolutely stellar suite of tools that will benefit users of all types. Trust me on this one: Unless you have absolutely no need to be more productive, you want Office 2007. And thanks to a larger-than-ever portfolio of Office suites at a variety of price points, you almost have no excuse for not jumping on the bandwagon. This is productivity squared.
