I will be telling you about the various features of BING and a side by side comparison of Google and BING...

Bing ! as we know it is the new search engine. Microsoft claims its much more than a search engine and it is a decision engine…

It was first designed as KUMO .KUMO was alpha tested by Microsoft guys and it was never opened to the public.I had seen KUMO in action at the Microsoft IDC.

Contrary to popular beliefs That windows life has been redesigned and renamed to BING!!…. actually KUMO has been renamed to BING

Bing is in beta stage ..so I am going to talk about the features currently present and the features which are going to come…

In built virtualization in windows 7

This post will also tell you how to convert specific folders to FAT 32 from NTFS for testing purposes.All methods shown in this post are totally RISK free as it has been done by Virtualization......

Well,I have tried not to make my blog into a tips and tricks one….But this post is essential because it firstly demonstrates the potential of Virtualization.The latest virtualization feature of Win 7 and also a method to convert NTFS to FAT32 without making a separate drive and the overheads associated with it.The last point is included because I have seen many blogs misguiding people about the process of changing particular folder to FAT..which is very risky.

Firstly let me make it clear conversion to FAT 32 is not recommended unless you want for testing purposes which can be done using VHD without disturbing other files....

Virtualization Using Microsoft Virtual PC..solve application incompatibilities...

In my previous post I had promised to show how you can implement Desktop Virtualization….In this post I will also show you how to perform virtualization in Windows 7…..This method can be implemented in any OS...be it XP or Vista...
The post allows you to perform desktop virtualization in your own PC....

One of the most common is to deal with incompatibility between applications and desktop operating systems. For example, suppose a user running Windows Vista needs to use an application that runs only on Windows XP with Service Pack 2. By creating a VM that runs this older operating system, then installing the application in that VM, this problem can be solved.
I will also show you how Windows 3.1.1 (prehistoric windows ) :P used to look like....by "virtually" running it inside win 7....

Virtualization

Virtualization is one of the hottest trends in information technology today. So first let us understand what is virtualization and then I will demonstrate the implementation of virtualization and also tell you how you can do it in your own home pc

First of all, what is virtualization? I guess that it can be explained from a very techy point of view or from a more basic aspect. I’m gonna go with the latter; Virtualization allows you to run several different virtual machines on one single physical system. This means that you for example can have your file server, DNS and print server all operating at the same time.
