from arstechnica:
“It seems like Microsoft’s operating system presentations have a tendency to go awry. In a live product demonstration for a large group of Wall Street analysts, the company decided to show off Windows Vista’s speech recognition capabilities. As it turns out, the presentation, known as the Financial Analyst Meeting, was much more of a comedy rather than a professional demo,” Matt Mondok reports for Ars Technica.

Mondok reports, “It shows the presenter struggling to get Vista’s speech recognition software to cooperate. At one point, the presenter (Shanen Boettcher) said, ‘select all,’ and the software showed its violent side, writing ‘so double the killer delete select all.’”

did you ever get a typo in your url and end up at a strange web site or nowhere else?
like: www.google.cpm – now ther is a solution – switch your name server to OpenDNS!

The straight dope

Know what you’re doing? Here are the addresses of the OpenDNS nameservers:

* 208.67.222.222
* 208.67.220.220

To see if you’ve successfully switched DNS to OpenDNS, visit:

http://welcome.opendns.com/

Hint: you may need to renew your DHCP lease.

PLUS 

they claim this:

OpenDNS can identify and stop sites trying to phish (steal) your personal information or money. The OpenDNS phishing protection works with all operating systems and browsers, and complements any other security measures already in use, such as a firewall and anti-virus software.

give it a shot!!

a few days ago i had to install a little app on a friends pc-notebook. what a pain in the ass. why can’t that not be like this one. download a disk-image – open – you get the window in the picture and than you drag the app to the folder alisa on the right and boom you have it sitting on your harddrive in the application folder. and if you need – there is the manual right next to it. than you eject the disk image and put it in the trash. DONE!
