Though we have heavy duty UPS and with Notebooks we have better battery backup but some time while you are working on a important word document, you dont want it to be lost at any cost…

Some time because of many reason your windows may stop responding and if that happens between a typing process which you were doing under Microsoft Office Word, you may lose the un-saved data…

Microsoft Office Word by default is set to auto-save the data in every 10mins… Which you can change to 1 or 2 mins for Maximum protection…

These days I see many people wondering where exactly the Browser Temporary files are located at ??

Internet Explorer 7

best way to reach to that is, Click Tools under Internet Explorer

Now Please Click Internet Options

To access Windows Genuine Advantage one would use to need Internet Explorer to install ActiveX Control or use one Windows Genuine Advantage (running one small EXE to generate code to validate Windows)…

Where as I noticed that now if you access one download page of Microsoft Site with Alternate Browser such as FireFox which would require one Genuine Windows, Microsoft will offer one Alternate Browser plugin installation…

IBM on recently announced the release of Lotus Symphony, a suite of free desktop applications based on the OpenOffice.org open-source product.

This is to many a sign that its an attempt to make a run at Rivals Microsoft Office system market share…. Read more..

Some FAQ about the Software,

1. Very high system requirement for a Free Office Apps…
2. Not fully Compatible with Microsoft Office Apps…
3. Supports Windows XP and Vista..

Read more on FAQ Section

Quick things to note are the draw backs, 

Very High system requirementof the application, as it needs full one GB of RAM to run… Compare that with Open Office which would run fine under 128 MB of RAM and even Office 2003 too… Its pretty odd to see such high requirement and who would run a free apps is expected to be low on budget and so low system configuration too like for example 3rd world education institutes or even Office computers…

Also the support for OS, No MAC, NO Windows Server or Windows 2000 support…

One can see its not fully compatible with MS office documents…

So when we have OpenOffice.org, why would one want to shift to Lotus Symphony ??

Many times I see users desperate for help as they have lost their Installation Media for Windows of Office…

This is common problem faced by many, as You have installed windows and worked in it for long time but later on you may face issue like HDD crash, or any hardware or software failure which may require re or clean installation of Windows and Office system, and then you find after such long time of no requirement, either you have miss-placed the installation media / CD or you have managed to damaged the CD/DVD…

So what next ?? You are a genuine customer of Microsoft so how do you obtain a Replacement Media ??

There are 2 ways, now if you have a Branded system which came with pre-installed Windows and software then you have to get in touch with vendor (like, HP / Dell / IBM / etc)

In case you have bought your software separately from a local software vendor of Online store, then you can get in touch with Microsoft Connect or their product support service, through Bellow Method,

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx
