| Microsoft's In-Car Software Now in Hyundai | | 2008-05-10 15:38:00 | | Microsoft in-car infotainment system, currently known as Sync, will no longer be a Ford exclusive as it has licensed its technology to the Hyundai-Kia Automotive Group. Microsoft's Sync is a robust car infotainment system that connects many of your gadgets into one convenient and easy-to-use system. This allows MP3 players of all types and cellphones to seamlessly integrate into a car entertainment system. Microsoft had an exclusive partnership with Ford for Sync, but that contract is set to expire soon and Microsoft is already looking to expand its infotainment system by offering it to other manufacturers. Ford owns the rights to the name Sync, so it will undoubtedly be taking on another name for Hyundai and Kia. Hyundai and Kia's 2010 models will be the first to incorporate this technology from Microsoft.

| Microsoft Appeals $1.4. Billion Fine by Europe | | 2008-05-10 05:59:58 | | Microsoft asked Europe’s second-highest court to overturn or reduce a record fine of 899 million euros ($1.4 billion) from the European Union. The appeal was filed at the European Court of First Instance in Luxembourg, a Microsoft spokesman, Jesse Verstraete, said in an e-mailed statement. The European Commission, the E.U.’s antitrust authority, fined the company on Feb. 27 for failing to comply with a 2004 antitrust order. Under that decision, in which Microsoft was fined 497 million euros, the E.U. ordered the software maker to provide data to rivals to allow servers to connect to the Windows platform.http://www.nytimes.com | | By: Clickbank Business Guide | | |

| Internet News-Microsoft withdraws offer for Yahoo | | 2008-05-07 23:48:00 | | Micresoft Corporation walked away from its bid to buy Yahoo Inc on Saturday after the Internet Company turned down its offer to raise the price by $5 billion to $47.5 billion.Microsoft’s offer was for $33 a share but Yahoo would not lower its demand below $37, Microsoft Chief Executive Steve Ballmer said. The software company initially bid $31 per share for Yahoo more than three months ago.“We believe the economics demanded by Yahoo do not make sense for us, and it is in the best interests of Microsoft stockholders, employees and other stakeholders to withdraw our proposal,” Ballmer said in a statement.Analysts say Yahoo has overplayed its hand and they expect the Web pioneer’s shares to fall as much as 30 percent. The stock rose nearly 7 percent to $28.67 On Friday on hopes of an agreement between Microsoft and Yahoo. | | By: Blog Traffic-Blog Guide | | |

| Microsoft’s Sync tech to come to Hyundai, Kia, Ford asks “but what about us?” | | 2008-05-06 06:25:00 | | Filed under: Portable Audio, Transportation
Once thought to be the exclusive domain of Ford, Sync-like technology looks to be coming to Hyundai and Kia cars by 2010. While Microsoft and Hyundai aren't calling the technology Sync officially, the new "music and information system" will be a voice-controlled interface that links mobile devices to car stereos, complete with remote firmware updates. Sounds a lot like Sync to us. Interestingly, only later versions will include multimedia and navigation-related features. This is a curious omission -- why would Hyundai need Microsoft's help just to plug in some iPods? The product will be made official at a ceremony in Seoul attended by Bill Gates and Hyundai Kia Automotive Group Chairman Chung Moon-koo. Cocktail hour and family photos to follow immediately.Read | Permalink | Email this | Comments

L'offerta risulta indubbiamente allettante, anche se Jerry Yang sostiene che Microsoft sottovaluta l'azienda.Secondo lui l'azienda vale almeno 37 $ ad azione, risultando quindi sottostimata di 6 dollari a titolo.Microsoft, forte della sua proposta non ci sta ad alzare troppo il tiro, annuncia di poter valutare il motore di ricerca al massimo 33 $ ad azione e impone a Yahoo! un ultimatum per decidere.Yahoo! non parla...

| Implementing Interfaces in microsoft dotnet | | 2008-05-03 11:33:00 | | The syntax for defining an interface is very similar to the syntax for defining a class or a struct: [attributes ] [access-modifier ] interface interface-name [: base-list ] {interface-body } Access modifiers (public, private, etc.) work just as they do with classes. It is common (but not required) to begin the name of your interface with a capital I The body of the interface is defined within braces, just as the body of a class would be. Suppose you want to create an interface to define the contract for data being stored to a database or file. Your interface will define the methods and properties a class will need to implement in order to be stored to a database or file. You decide to call this interface IStorable. In this interface, you might specify two methods, Read() and Write(), which appear in the interface body: interface IStorable{void Read();void Write(object);}Implementing an Interface The syntax for defining an interface is very similar to the syntax for d | | By: dot net made easy | | |

| Sealed Classes in microsoft dot net | | 2008-05-03 11:28:00 | | The opposite side of the design coin from abstract is sealed. In contrast to an abstract class, which is intended to be derived from and to provide a template for its subclasses to follow, a sealed class does not allow classes to derive from it at all. The sealed keyword placed before the class declaration precludes derivation. Classes are most often marked sealed to prevent accidental inheritance. The Root of All Classes: Object All C# classes, of any type, are treated as if they ultimately derive from a single class: Object. Object is the base class for all other classes. A base class is the immediate "parent" of a derived class. A derived class can be the base to further derived classes, creating an inheritance "tree" or hierarchy. A root class is the topmost class in an inheritance hierarchy. In C#, the root class is Object. The nomenclature is a bit confusing until you imagine an upside-down tree, with the root on top and the derived classes below. Thus, the base cla | | By: dot net made easy | | |

| Abstract Classes in microsoft dot net | | 2008-05-03 11:25:00 | | Each type of Window has a different shape and appearance. Drop-down listboxes look very different from buttons. Clearly, every subclass of Window should implement its own DrawWindow() method — but so far, nothing in the Window class enforces that they must do so. To require subclasses to implement a method of their base, you need to designate that method as abstract. An abstract method has no implementation. It creates a method name and signature that must be implemented in all derived classes. Furthermore, making at least one method of any class abstract has the side effect of making the class abstract. Abstract classes establish a base for derived classes, but it is not legal to instantiate an object of an abstract class. Once you declare a method to be abstract, you prohibit the creation of any instances of that class.Abstract classes should not just be an implementation trick; they should represent the idea of an abstraction that establishes a "contract" for all de | | By: dot net made easy | | |

| Polymorphism microsoft dot net | | 2008-05-03 08:57:00 | | There are two powerful aspects to inheritance. One is code reuse. When you create a ListBox class, you're able to reuse some of the logic in the base (Window) class. What is arguably more powerful, however, is the second aspect of inheritance: polymorphism. Poly means many and morph means form. Thus, polymorphism refers to being able to use many forms of a type without regard to the details. When the phone company sends your phone a ring signal, it does not know what type of phone is on the other end of the line. You might have an old-fashioned Western Electric phone that energizes a motor to ring a bell, or you might have an electronic phone that plays digital music. As far as the phone company is concerned, it knows only about the "base type" phone and expects that any "instance" of this type knows how to ring. When the phone company tells your phone to ring, it simply expects the phone to "do the right thing." Thus, the phone company treats your phone polymorphically. | | By: dot net made easy | | |

| Inheritance in microsoft dot net | | 2008-05-03 08:54:00 | | In C#, the specialization relationship is implemented using a principle called inheritance. This is not the only way to implement specialization, but it is the most common and most natural way to implement this relationship. Saying that ListBox inherits from (or derives from) Window indicates that it specializes Window. Window is referred to as the base class, and ListBox is referred to as the derived class. That is, ListBox derives its characteristics and behaviors from Window and then specializes to its own particular needs. Implementing Inheritance In C#, you create a derived class by adding a colon after the name of the derived class, followed by the name of the base class: public class ListBox : Window This code declares a new class, ListBox, that derives from Window. You can read the colon as "derives from." The derived class inherits all the members of the base class (both member variables and methods). These members can be treated just as if they were created in t | | By: dot net made easy | | |

| Specialization and Generalization in microsoft dotnet | | 2008-05-03 08:51:00 | | Classes and their instances (objects) do not exist in a vacuum but rather in a network of interdependencies and relationships, just as we, as social animals, live in a world of relationships and categories. One of the most important relationships among objects in the real world is specialization, which can be described as an is-a relationship. When we say that a Dog is a mammal, we mean that the Dog is a specialized kind of Mammal. It has all the characteristics of any Mammal (it bears live young, nurses with milk, has hair), but it specializes these characteristics to the familiar characteristics of canine domesticus. A Cat is also a mammal. As such we expect it to share certain characteristics with the Dog that are generalized in Mammal, but to differ in those characteristics that are specialized in Cat. The specialization and generalization relationships are both reciprocal and hierarchical. They are reciprocal because specialization is the obverse side of the general | | By: dot net made easy | | |

| Into Digital Photography? Check out Microsoft Pro Photo Tools V1 | | 2008-05-01 18:17:00 | | Microsoft today has made available a new tool for photographers using Windows for their digital photos: Microsoft Pro Photo Tools V1. This application lets you quickly edit the metadata on digital photos you've shot with your camera - including RAW formats.
Microsoft Pro Photo Tools also allows photographers to use geotagging for their photos. Geotagging is the ability to "tag" something with location information - and in the case of photos the location of where your photo was taken. You can quickly add location data from a GPS device or Live Search Maps to a photo's metadata.
Download: Microsoft Pro Photo Tools V1 (x86)
I use Windows Live Photo Gallery to manage all my photos. I'd like to note that changes in any specific photo' s metadata using Microsoft Pro Photo Tools will be reflected of course in Windows Live Photo Gallery - including title and tags.
You'll see here I've added a title, description, and keywords (aka tags) in Microsoft Pro Photo Tools to one of my photos.

He's back again today with an update on virtualization, as well as other components that illustrate our commitment to improving the optimized desktop.
This week at the Microsoft Management Summit (MMS) in Las Vegas, we've talked about Microsoft's role in improving the optimized desktop and emphasized Microsoft's commitment to virtualization. I want to tell you about some news coming out of the show today, which includes details on the product roadmaps for specific tools within the Microsoft Desktop Optimization Pack (MDOP) for Software Assurance.

| Massive Attack: mezzo milione di siti gestiti da server Microsoft IIS in pericolo per una SQL Injection | | 2008-04-30 04:43:00 | | ...e Microsoft barcolla...Fonte della notizia.A new SQL injection attack aimed at Microsoft IIS web servers has hit some 500,000 websites, including the United Nations, UK Government sites and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. While the attack is not necessarily Microsoft's fault, it is unique to the company's IIS server.The automated attack takes advantage to the fact that Microsoft’s IIS servers allow generic commands that don’t require specific table-level arguments. However, the vulnerability is the result of poor data handling by the sites’ creators, rather than a specific Microsoft flaw.In other words, there’s no patch that’s going to fix the issue, the problem is with the developers who failed follow well-established security practices for handling database input.The attack itself injects some malicious JavaScript code into every text field in your database, the Javascript then loads an external script that can compromise a user’s PC.Most of the larger sites | | By: Sono Italiano... e me ne vergogno! | | |

| Microsoft Threatens Hostile Yahoo Bid | | 2008-04-27 04:21:17 | | Microsoft could launch a hostile bid for Yahoo next week if the internet company does not start talks this weekend.The software group warned last night that it will not be raising its $31 (£15.60) a share offer if it does approach shareholders directly, as it announced a drop in quarterly sales of its flagship Windows software."With respect to Yahoo, we have been clear; speed is of the essence," said Microsoft's chief financial officer Chris Liddell on a call with analysts. "The idea that we should increase our bid just because we can afford to is not one that I favour. Unless we make progress with the Yahoo board by this weekend, we will explore our alternatives."These alternatives clearly include taking an offer to Yahoo shareholders or withdrawing our proposal and focusing on other opportunities," he added. Such opportunities could include other deals or partnerships.Microsoft chief executive Steve Ballmer set Yahoo's board a deadline of three weeks to come to the table or face a | | By: Finance fantasy | | |

| Yahoo-Microsoft Fight Heads for a Deadline | | 2008-04-26 05:00:05 | | Yahoo Inc. and Microsoft Corp. remained in a standoff Friday as a threatened Microsoft deadline for a hostile acquisition attempt approached.The two companies and their advisers have been talking in recent weeks, but achieved no breakthroughs that would lead them to a friendly deal by Saturday, said people familiar with the matter. That's the day Microsoft Chief Executive Steve Ballmer has set as a deadline for Yahoo to reach a friendly deal before Microsoft goes hostile, threatening to lower the price in that case. The people familiar with the matter said that, as of late Friday, no meetings between the two companies were planned for the weekend and they were skeptical that any friendly accord could be reached before Monday. The issue of price has been a main sticking point, with Microsoft's cash-and-stock offer valued at $29.68 a share as of Friday's market close. Yahoo's directors have rejected the offer as undervaluing the company, and major Yahoo holders have signaled they want cl | | By: Clickbank Business Guide | | |

| Microsoft’s Vista Problem | | 2008-04-25 17:14:22 | | Microsoft keeps insisting that Windows Vista is a winner, but the questions keep mounting — and Thursday’s quarterly report only added to the doubts. Revenue from the company’s so-called client division — PC operating systems mainly — came in at a bit under $4.03 billion. That was about $300 million less than most analysts had expected. Christopher P. Liddell, Microsoft’s chief financial officer, said the shortfall had two principal explanations. First, he pointed to the mix of Windows Vista sales in fast-growing emerging markets, where fewer customers buy the premium versions of the PC operating system software than in the developed world. Second, he said that Microsoft’s programs to combat piracy of Windows, which had bolstered sales in the previous couple of quarters, did not generate revenue-increasing gains this time. Mr. Liddell dismissed claims that some customers were reluctant to buy Vista machines. “There are no Vista-related issues at all,” he declare | | By: Clickbank Business Guide | | |

| Microsoft turns the DRM screw on MSN Music owners | | 2008-04-23 06:46:00 | | Filed under: Portable AudioEver wonder why we loath DRM around here as much as we do even when companies come along offering free, all you can eat deals? Well, if the Sony ATRAC debacle didn't serve as a warning there's always this: Microsoft just announced that it will no longer supply authorization keys for songs purchased from the defunct MSN Music service. That means that the PlaysForSure music you purchased will only play on your registered computers (up to 5) for as long as they shall live. As Microsoft puts it, "If you attempt to transfer your songs to additional computers after August 31, 2008, those songs will not successfully play." It's worth noting that the move also locks the registered PC into whatever OS it's running -- any major update or switch to Ubuntu for example, would kill all your music, dead. Now imagine what would happen if iTunes shuttered its store -- Steve won't be around forever you know.Read | Permalink | Email this | | | By: Computer Advice | | |

| Microsoft: buscar errores en nuestras aplicaciones está bien | | 2008-04-22 14:30:00 | | El gigante informático ha informado el pasado fin de semana en una conferencia de seguridad que no presentará demandas ante los hackers que busquen e informen responsablemente vulnerabilidades de sus aplicaciones online.Generalmente los investigadores hacen la vista gorda cuando se topan con algún posible fallo de seguridad ya que nunca se sabe como reaccionarán las empresas. Muchas veces el profesional debe acceder un poco más allá de lo permitido, es decir cometer un delito informático para comprobar una vulnerabilidad y aunque su intensión no sea explotarla sino informarla para que sea reparada, termina siendo acusado y demandado por la empresa. En consecuencia son los hackers malintencionados los únicos que se dedican a encontrar fallas y explotarlas obviamente en su propio beneficio.La nueva postura de Microsoft debería ser tomada como un ejemplo, la idea es lograr que los sitios sean más seguros y si alguien se toma la molestia de notificar una vulnerabilidad comprobad | | By: SpamLoco | | |

If Yahoo bounces back to exceed analysts' modest expectations, it could be a springboard to a higher bid from Microsoft or provide more credence to management's argument that the company will be better off remaining independent.But a disappointing quarter would intensify pressure on Yahoo to accept Microsoft's cash-and stock offer, which was worth about $43 billion, or $29.96 per share, as of Monday's trading.A lackluster performan | | By: Nerdy Eddy | | |
