photo vanity and vista versions

today i was asked to take a posed photo off a website i do. although this posed photo was quite embarrasing, it wasn’t too bad and i thought it was quite funny. it certainly wouldn’t do harm to the person asking me to take it off, and would probably make them more popular. people do have this thing about photos and looking bad in them, but i think they take it too far. if you pose for a photo, you should be prepared for the consequences, and if the outcome is funny have a laugh and don’t get upset, after all it is probably how other people see you every day anyway.

windows vista seems to be progressing steadily, what does concern me is the number of versions, or ‘editions’ they’ve got:

  • Starter
  • Home Basic
  • Home Premium
  • Ultimate
  • Small Business
  • Professional
  • Enterprise
  • plus all the european / malaysian ’special’ editions.

    it’ll be funny when the average computer novice goes into pc world/dixons/currys and asks them what version of windows they should go for. bullshit will be spouted. and i thought they were trying to make computers easier, or that’s what they’d like you to think. at least it will keep some people in a job. the it world already has too many big new words for the same old thing, maybe the next five years will be even better for ipod, i mean apple.
