			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h4>Microsoft is working on an alternative way to browse the Xbox 360 menu options, a new report said on Tuesday.</h4>
<p><img src="http://cdn1.gamepro.com/article_img/gamepro/196628-1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>According to Kotaku, Microsoft is preparing to unveil a second interface option for Xbox 360, one that uses rumored motion controls to navigate a 3D environment of options, much like the iPhone and fictional interface seen in Minority Report.</p>
<p>The information comes from &#8220;a number&#8221; of unnamed sources, says Kotaku, which claimed a 95 percent accuracy rate for the ambitious rumor. What&#8217;s more, the same designer behind the fictional Minority Report graphical user interface is said to be working on the Xbox 360 one, says a second report by Kotaku.</p>
<p>Microsoft was not immediately available for comment when contacted by GamePro on Wednesday. Nevertheless, the company is set to hold its annual Xbox media briefing on July 14 in Los Angeles, the day before E3 begins.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Now that Opera 9.5 and Firefox 3.0 are available to end users, the focus is bound to shift on Microsoft. The Redmond company has been cooking Internet Explorer 8 for over a year now, and is approximately one month away from releasing the second Beta build to the public. Since Beta 1 was set up to give web developers and designers a taste of what&#8217;s coming mainly in terms of standards support, Beta 2 is built to wow end users and, in this context, will deliver features beyond what is available in the first public development milestone, WebSlices and Activities.<br />
Internet Explorer 8 Beta 2 is scheduled to hit sometime in August, but although the IE team<br />
is still hammering at the release, the fact is that as early as mid June 2008, features were no longer added to the milestone. On June 19, Chris Wilson, the Platform Architect for IE revealed that: &#8220;we&#8217;re still improving quality by fixing bugs in Beta 2, but we&#8217;re not implementing new features at this point for the Beta 2 release&#8221;.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last month’s release of Firefox 3 marked the latest iteration of the second most popular browser behind Microsoft’s Internet Explorer. To mark the occasion, the Firefox 3 team looked to set a world record for the number of downloads in a day.</p>
<p>Firefox 3 was a shoe-in to set the Guinness World Record for most software downloads in a day since the record didn’t previously exist. The record was made official today with Guinness certifying that Firefox 3 was downloaded 8,002,530 times in the first 24 hours of its launch. That number weeds out all duplicate downloads and automated downloads.</p>
<p>Even though Firefox 3 holds the record for most downloads in a day, it still holds a fraction of the browser market that number one Internet Explorer has. According to The Wall Street Journal Firefox held 19.03% of the browser market in June while Internet Explorer captured 73% of the total browser market.</p>
<p>Firefox and other browsers are gaining ground on Microsoft&#8211; albeit slowly. According to The Wall Street Journal, Internet Explorer lost about half a percentage point of market share per month for the last 12 months.</p>
<p>Mozilla announced its record setting attempt with much pomp and fanfare on June 17 and to commemorate the occasion the Internet Explorer team at Microsoft even sent over a cake.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignnone" src="http://news.softpedia.com/images/news2/Mac-OS-X-10-5-4-Released-2.jpg" alt="MAC OS-X 10.6.4" width="209" height="156" /></p>
<p>On May 29th, 2008 Apple released Mac OS X 10.5.3, the latest maintenance and security update to Leopard users - the version many of you are probably still using right now. As it turns out, you can now fire up Apple Software Update to get a new version of Leopard: Mac OS X 10.5.4.</p>
<p>&#8220;The 10.5.4 Update is recommended for all users running Mac OS X<br />
Leopard and includes general operating system fixes that enhance the stability, compatibility and security of your Mac,&#8221; says Apple. General enhancements include recent Apple security updates, RAW image support for several cameras, and improved L2TP VPN client reliability. The update also addresses an issue that may result in a partially installed X11 application, and a bug with saving and reopening Adobe Creative Suite 3 files on a remote server.</p>
<p>A more detailed list of enhancements brought by Mac OS X 10.5.4 is available below:</p>
<p><strong>AirPort</strong></p>
<p>- Addresses AirPort reliability issues with 5GHz networks.<br />
- Addresses AirPort issues that may result in slower performance in Logic Studio or MainStage.</p>
<p><strong>iCal</strong></p>
<p>- Improves overall iCal reliability for meeting requests, cancellation notices, delegation, and syncing with iPhone.<br />
- Resolves an issue that prevents deleting an iCal event without notifying the creator.<br />
- Addresses an issue in which events in all calendars affect availability. A checkbox now enables information-only calendars to be transparent from free/busy lookups.<br />
- Resolves a UI issue preventing delegated calendars from showing up as a separate window.<br />
- Addresses an issue with copying and pasting attendees from one event to another.<br />
- Resolves an issue in which iCal may not delete events after a speciﬁed time interval, even when set to do so in iCal preferences.<br />
- Addresses an issue in which To Dos cannot be marked private.</p>
<p><strong>Safari</strong></p>
<p>- Addresses a potential performance issue when loading secure web pages.<br />
- Resolves issues that may be encountered when accessing secure web pages with client certificates that reside on a smart card.</p>
<p><strong>Spaces and Exposé</strong></p>
<p>- Addresses an issue in which switching from a space with a Finder window keeps the Finder as the active application instead of the application residing in the destination space.<br />
- Fixes an issue in which dragging an application from the list of application assignments in Spaces System Preferences does not assign the application to the desired space.<br />
- Resolves an Exposé issue that may result in only a subset of windows being shown.</p>
<p>To update to the current version of Leopard, choose Software Update from the Apple menu. If your computer is not up-to-date, other software updates available for your computer may appear and you will be prompted to install them. Some updates must be installed prior to others, so you should run Software Update more than once to make sure you ultimately get everything up to date.</p>

<div class="pt5">Softpedia has rated Mass Effect 9, User rating is 8.9 and critic rating is 9.1 .</div>
<div class="pt5">Here&#8217;s the review from softpedia-</div>
<blockquote>
<div class="pt5">When Mass Effect was originally released last November on the Xbox 360, it unveiled a vast, beautiful galaxy populated by diverse, fascinating alien races. Players stepped onto this stage as Commander Shepard, a hero at the vanguard of humanity&#8217;s ascension in the arena of galactic politics, and thus began an epic story bolstered by engaging characters and rich, branching dialogue. Exciting combat and robust skill management completed the package, but it was not without flaws. Many small issues have been addressed in the PC release, and the result is a more streamlined, more playable version of one of the best role-playing games in recent memory.</div>

<h2>The Good</h2>

<ul class="fl" style="width: 100%;">
<li> All the awesome stuff that made Mass Effect on the 360 great <span> </span></li>

</ul>
<h2>The Bad</h2>

<p>IGN has rated this game as 9.2.<br />
Here&#8217;s the IGN&#8217;s review of Mass Effect-</p>
<blockquote><p><span id="objectDescription">Set 200 years in the future in an epic universe, Mass Effect places gamers in a vast galactic community in danger of being conquered by a legendary agent gone rogue. A spectacular new vision from legendary developers BioWare, Mass Effect challenges players to lead a squad of freedom fighters as they struggle against threatening armies to restore peace in the land.</span></p>
<p>Mass Effect is the first in a trilogy of games with an overarching story. As the first human Specter – sworn defenders of galactic peace – your mission is to halt the advancing armies of a legendary agent gone rogue. But as you lead your elite team across hostile alien worlds, you will discover the true threat is far greater than anyone imagined.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>Antec has three premium lines of consumer computer cases in it&#8217;s roster: Performance One, Sonata and Gamer. We&#8217;ve already looked at cases from the Performance One and Sonata lines and those cases left with many awards and high ratings. So now all that&#8217;s left is a look at Antec&#8217;s Gamer line of cases. It&#8217;s pretty obvious, but the Gamer line of cases is targeted towards gamers. Antec&#8217;s claim for it&#8217;s Gamer cases is that they have <em>&#8220;unprecedented cooling, convenience, and style.&#8221;</em> That&#8217;s what we&#8217;ll check out today with the entry level Gamer case from Antec, the Three Hundred.</p>
<p>The general style of the Gamer series cases consist of black exteriors, lots of fans (some of them are quite big!) and perforated front panels. Moving from the Three Hundred and up the line, you gain more space, more fans (and even bigger fans!), and a side-panel window.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.circuitremix.com/images/140/1.jpg" alt="" width="299" height="389" /><!--break-->With our Three Hundred sample, all of these style elements are evident. The case is pure black, has lots of fans (mostly 120mm fans, with one 140mm at the top), and 2/3 of the front panel is perforated, allowing for lots of airflow.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>By: Marius Oiaga, Technology News Editor (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://news.softpedia.com/news/Vista-System-Tools-Survived-into-Windows-7-M1-88808.shtml">Softpedia</a>)</strong></p>
<p>Microsoft already confirmed that Windows 7 will have Windows Vista as its foundation. Like it or not, Windows 7 will be nothing more than an evolution of the current Windows client. According to the little details the Redmond company did manage to make public, the Vista architecture will survive into the next generation of the Windows operating system, and one illustrative example in this context are the system tools. Of course that, at this point in time, the real question is just how much of Windows Vista will be Windows 7?</p>
<p>This because Windows 7 has to be different enough to not only qualify as a standalone and major Windows release but also be perceived as having an identity all of its own, and not be mocked as Vista SP1, Vista R2, and so on and so forth. Judging by Windows 7 Milestone 1 this is not the case at all. The fact of the matter is that Windows 7 is much more Windows Vista than it is Windows 7. Still, M1 was nothing more than an early development milestone, the first taste that Microsoft gave of the next iteration of the operating system.</p>
<p>One area of the operating system that was ignored by change involves the tools (msconfig.exe) which provide users with an insight into the operating system. There is no difference whatsoever between the System Configuration tools in Vista and those available in Windows 7 M1. About Windows, System Information, Remote Assistance, System Restore, Computer Management, Event Viewer, Programs, Security Center, System Properties, Internet Options, Internet Protocol Configuration, Performance Monitor, Task Manager, Disable UAC, Enable UAC, Command Prompt and Registry Editor are all in the same place.</p>
<p>While it is bound that these tools need to make it into the final version of Windows 7, in order to provide continuity, Microsoft also needs to deliver additional items, and not leave the list unchanged from M1. Windows 7 has indeed moved forward, even if all details are gagged to perfection. The U.S. antitrust regulators have already received a new development build of the operating system, with a big chance that it is Milestone 2, although Microsoft is not breathing a single word on it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here&#8217;s a new review from Hardware Chunks-<br />
Product Number:  TBD<br />
Price: $300<br />
Manufacturer’s Product Page: TBD<br />
Warranty: 2-year<br />
CONCLUSION-</p>
<blockquote><p>
It has been a hard two years for ATI and we know that many people out there have been counting down the days until the boys in red returned to competitiveness. Well ladies and gents, the wait is over because the HD4870 has shown us that ATI has come out with all guns blazing. While the HD3870 and HD3850 were popular cards which were able to compete on a number of fronts with their Nvidia counterparts, we are quickly coming to realist that they were nothing more than technology demonstrators for the 55nm manufacturing process. This process has now blossomed into full maturity with the R770-series cards which seem set to take the graphics card world by storm.</p>
<p>This review however presented me with a bit of an issue since it fought again and again with what should be my journalistic mettle of looking at every product objectively. Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately depending on how you look at it) when I am presented with the kind of performance the HD4870 512MB provides at such a competitive price it is next to impossible not to get excited. Let’s be honest here for a second; with an MSRP of $300 and the very real possibility of lower prices once it hits e-tailer’s shelves, ATI is ushering in a new era of in the price for performance wars. This price brings up another point regarding competition against this card since right now there isn’t any at all. The 9800GTX has seen a price reduction to around $215 here in Canada, the 9800GTX”+” seems to be nothing more than a twinkle in Nvidia’s eye which will be launching “sometime” in July and the GTX 260 will be priced around $400 which is a full $100 more than the HD4870. This means that at this time ATI is in the envious position of being in complete domination of the $300 to $350 price bracket.</p>
<p>When you look at the performance we received through nearly every one of the tests we put the HD4870 it becomes obvious that this card was built for a high image quality DX10 environment. What stunned me the most what how much a performance increase the inclusion of GDDR5 and a 125Mhz core bump have given this card over the HD4850. AA implementation comes without any problem at all and it regularly hands out a shellacking to its closest competitors once image quality is turned up. Indeed, in every AMD document I have seen, the HD4870 was supposed be competing directly with the 9800GTX. Well, they seem to have pulled a fast one on all of us since this card beats the 9800GTX until it is black and blue.</p>
<p>While I can rant and rave about this card all I want, there are a few areas where I find it and ATI’s board partners come up wanting. Throughout the briefings we have been through it was very clear that AMD is aiming to become a price performance leader while offering up the maximum performance per watt. While they have hit the nail on the head with their first goal and the performance per watt is smack where we wanted it to be, it could have been better. The HD4870 is supposed to have dynamic voltage and clock speed regulation so it will consume very little power when under idle conditions. I am not sure if it was matter of the feature not working or another issue but the idle power consumption was disappointing to say the least. The other area that I feel needs to be improved is in warranty coverage. It is understandable that AMD doesn’t have control over their partners’ marketing initiatives we would have liked to have seen a longer warranty than the somewhat paltry 2 years which Palit offers.</p>
<p>Other than that, the Palit HD4870 512MB is a card which answers the prayers of many ATI fans and will definitely succeed in finding ATI many new admirers. If you are currently in the market for a high performance graphics card, we see no reason to not fully recommend this product.</p>
<p>Let me sum this all up by saying that I hardly ever give an award to a newly released graphics card due to the mostly beta nature of performance and various other issues that always seem to pop up. However, the Palit HD4870 512MB we have tested here today not only bucks past trends but it smashed all of my expectations about how much people have to pay for ass-hauling performance. ATI has taken the approach of putting value before bleeding edge framerates and this card more than any on the market today proves that they got the formula spot on and then some. So, this card accomplishes something that has only happened once before in the history of this site; it wins both the Dam Good Award and the Dam Good Value Award. Bravo AMD, ATI and Palit. Bravo.</p>
<p><strong>Pros:</strong></p>
<p>Incredible Performance<br />
Great price<br />
Quiet Operation<br />
Stays quite cool<br />
Will accept past heatsinks…no need to buy a new one</p>
<p><strong>Cons:</strong></p>
<p>Power consumption a bit high at idle<br />
2 year warranty</p>
