Windows Surface... tablet


http://www.microsoft.com/surface/en/us/default.aspx

Microsoft released its tablet with the name of Surface... but wait, Surface is not the PixelSense tecnology?
Ok, no more confusion.
Surface is the tablet and the PixelSense (called Surface too) is PixelSense.

Take a look what is PixelSense: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/pixelsense/default.aspx

More info about Surface: http://www.microsoft.com/surface/en/us/about.aspx
Specs: http://www.microsoft.com/global/surface/en/us/renderingassets/surfacespecsheet.pdf

The design is very beautiful, the keyboard is very smart.
The Surface PRO has Window 8 PRO, so I think it has a x86 cpu (so you can run your x86 applications)
I suppose that the Ipad has a great competitor now.

BlackWell's Asylum [Steam]


Let's try another game... BlackWell's Asylum.
The graphic seems a bit "old" and models are a bit "toon", but it's a beautiful graphic style.
It's weird but at -1920x1080 high settings- the game is melting my PC... and I play everything in full HD, max settings without problems. Meh.

The Microsoft Tablet

Lol, no, not a Xp tablet (it's pretty... I want thit vintage-tech, but this is another story)

So rumors say Microsoft is to launch its own tablet... uhm... x86? Arm? I don't know.

All the attention is for the name! What will Microsoft call its tablet?

MicroPad? (hurrdurr)
SoftPad?
WinPad?
WinTab?  (this -pad- word break my ass)
8Pad?
8Tab?
MicroTab?
BallmerTab?

Blades of Time [Steam]



My desire to use Steam is back...

So it's time to try some demos... free demos...

Blades of Time, a sort of X-Blade chapter... good...




The main character is a very beautiful girl with blades (you don't say), the strength of Kratos from God of War and the speed of a PA-200 Tornado.

Windows 8 UI on final release


How horrible.
The borders are thick and I think we can't resize them.
It seems you can choose to apply the color in the taskbar only or in the taskbar and in the windows...

Xampp



I'm using Xampp, but the httpd service doesn't start.
Apache Start.bat doesn't work and reports:

Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network address/port) is normally permitted. : make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80.

In my case the problem is Skype that is using the port #80, so:
  • Open Skype and go to Tools > Options >Advanced > Connection
  • Uncheck "Use port 80 and 443 as alternatives for incoming connections" checkbox
  • Enter a different port in the "use port ___ for the incoming connections" field (80 is the default, change it with another -unused- port)
  • Restart Skype!
