Windows 7 RC

Besides buying laptops, installing Windows and remaking the blog template there hasn't been too much going on. But the highlights are that we finally have a date for Windows Seven Release Candidate 1 and that is: 30th April for MSDN and TechNet  and May 5th for everybody else.

For all you haters, ignorants or just unsure and concerned people out there that believe Win 7 will be crap and you're still in love with your XP and your apps the people at MS actually did something useful :Windows XP Mode and Windows Virtual PC. 

It's a mod for win seven that will allow you to install XP apps via Virtual PC and then run them in Seven. Check the link for more info.

Oh and on the lighter side of things the Yahoo Mess team did a little tinkering around and now you profile can show your updates from multiple social sites such as Last.fm and YouTube and Tweeter directly in YMess. Check out this post for more info.
