Bill Gates spreads the word too

From January 19 Bill Gates begun spreading the word too from his own official Twitter account. What? Of course, i became one of his thousands followers as soon as i found out. Is there a more trusted source to hear about Microsoft news and learn everything new about its products than the creator of Windows himself? The first tweet he made was a "Hello World" and some other things he said, i can't recall.
Follow him ( http://twitter.com/BillGates ) to learn useful stuff about his next plans or anything that he tweets about.
Also, he shares from now on, with us, the common people, a site with his notes ( www.thegatesnotes.com ) that are basically thoughts he makes about the world of today.

It's so much fun watching fanboys arguing about how the os or the services they are using are better than others

Recently i found in Digg a very interesting pic showing how fanboys see operating systems. I must admit this picture sums up the opinion we all have about operating systems and it's really funny. No impression that it has been dugg nearly 7000 times.

See it on Digg because the comments are really worth a look.

Also, another one same style pic showing how digg, reddit and 4chan fanboys see each other.

Copy of iMac or a powerful computer worth its money?

I am reffering to the new hp touchsmart iq 500 series (525).
Its hardware is really powerful considering the Intel Core 2 Duo P7450, 4gb of ram, 640gb hdd, blu-ray, vga 9600m gs hd 512mb, tv, wireless keyboard and mouse and of course a 22-inch touch-screen.
Its desidn is great and the touch-screen i would say is comfortable, but it's a pitty that the system has a blu-ray drive and the maximum resolution of the screen is 1680x1050 not full hd.
So, i am of the opinion that this all-in one pc is worth its money as the version of windows that comes with it really fits it but i don't think that it can be better than an iMac.
