Aero Not Based On Avalon? Scoble says Aero is not based on Avalon. I’m not so sure about that. To the best of my knowledge it is. I mean, it’s entirely possible that it’s not since it could skirt around Avalon and talk directly to DirectX and/or the Longhorn Display Driver Model (LDDM) itself, but then that would mean that I’ve […] Share this:FacebookTwitterLinkedInMoreRedditWhatsAppSkypeEmail

It’s targeted at the people who like to pretend that the Mozilla/FireFox codebase is somehow blessed by the software gods to be completely free of flaws/vulnerabilities. The realists in this industry […] Share this:FacebookTwitterLinkedInMoreRedditWhatsAppSkypeEmail

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, right? So what do you do when someone blantantly wants to rip off your company’s entire service? Here’s a google cache just in case it disappears. My favorite part of the listing is that the lister expects the whole thing to be done in 30days. Good luck I say. 🙂 Share this:FacebookTwitterLinkedInMoreRedditWhatsAppSkypeEmail
