July is the month has been chosen by Redmond to launch the public beta of SP1 for Windows 7, which can be downloaded few days ago.
So that those who love Windows users still persist in keeping up, updated, taking as a selection criterion the principle of the newest, then they will be of great interest to know they can be available to you this new version of operating system world's most popular.
But know that not everything is so easy in this life. Unfortunately, to start the download must resort to a trick.

Haiku announces support for KDE.
Haiku can be understood as OpenSource implementation of an OS as BeOS was an OS-excellent performance for the time it was developed. And this last seems to replicate in Haiku, an operating system that gradually gives more and more possibilities.

Security problems in Mac OS X
In Boston, the conference SOURCE, Dino Dai Zovi has done a demonstration on how to hack Apple's operating system. To make the show has used the data memory (Heap Memory) is not sufficiently protected in order to carry out the attack. This problem is currently produced in Leopard but it is anticipated that in the next release, Snow Leopard, will be resolved as the data memory will be random.
So far Mac OS X is considered one of the most secure systems on the market. However with this finding might appear serious attacks on Mac OS X.
As a curiosity the iPhone OS is not vulnerable to the problem described above.

Jolicloud, a new operating system for ultra
Joliclouud is a new operating system based on GNU / Linux designed for ultraportable computers. Those who dismiss this alternative and no excuse, since it has a user interface optimized for the screen so small (some 6 ").
It is created by Tariq Krim no doubt seems very interesting and if you have the speed that is supposed to take, with the rise of netbooks will be a guaranteed success.
They also highlight the icons of the applications, as in most operating systems designed for notebooks stand out for their large size to make life easier for users of some computers that typically have very small screens.

Russia may have an operating system "national" to compete with Windows
This is the headline I see in www.20minutos.es. Apparently Russian President Vladimir Putin wants the government of his country does not lose independence on issues like security and software. Russia intend on creating an operating system that meets their own national needs. Also from the telecommunications ministry is making an effort to ensure that all Russian schools use free software in 2009. Without doubt a great challenge. Seem difficult times for Microsoft in Russia.
A good Windows 7 Operating System
We'd be surprised if Mr Shuttleworth of Canonical Ltd. executive director told us that have tested the Microsoft operating system, Windows 7 - and you think of a good system, logically you would not believe it were not for qu

It is no coincidence ... the British army infected.
Relatively recently, posteabamos news regarding an alleged operating system derived from the British Navy used Windows XP. Although at the time we watched with some disbelief the news, now we see another that makes us believe a little more at first. Apparently a virus has invaded the British fleet, extending out of control so that according to The Inquirer have had to make ordinary telephone communications with the-mill. According to reports from the Government concerned the weapons and navigation systems are not affected.
We assume that the news be taken with caution but not think that is a joke. Here is the link to the original story to be lost meaning the child (detail) as possible:

More legal trouble for Microsoft
As if Microsoft did not have enough trouble with the law EUROPERA because it considers the fact unfair competition to include a media player with its operating system (Windnows Media Player) (remember that Microsoft has already paid more than $ 600 million as a fine ), now the committee is back with a EUROPERA, this time the problem seems to be of the same nature is accused Microsoft of abusing its dominant position by the inclusion of Internet Explorer in its default operating system, thus preventing it somehow other alternatives may come more clearly the end user.

Syllable Desktop
If it were just a new operating system jumps to the fore.
This is Syllable, but Alpha is being used for testing at the desktop.
Syllable is a project whose goal is to produce an operating system, lightweight, stable and easy to use. At the time we develop two families: Syllable Desktop and Syllable Server.
Syllable Desktop is a free and open OS, according to the GNU terms.
We make it clear that this system does NOT use the Linux kernel to power a desktop X-Window, but it is a system where the core and the GUI are completely integrated one-piece, light and efficient.
This completely eliminates X-Windows system and toolkit, making software development an easy task if you know languages such as C or C + +.
Syllable Desktop is a Unix-style architecture, but is quite friendly and requires no technical knowledge to use.
