		<description><![CDATA[On my personal home computer I permanently switched from Windows to Linux in 2001. The latest Ubuntu GNU/Linux distribution automatically updates itself and allows to do all the mundane stuff like handling electronic mail, surfing the internet, viewing and editing text or spreadsheet documents. There are outstanding free applications allowing me to create and retouch high-colour graphics, rip and apply audio filters to songs, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Kenneth Van Wyk wrote an article for itmanagement.earthweb.com in which he tried to assess the level of vulnerability of Google android and Apple Inc. iPhone OS. I’m going to go out on a limb here and predict Google’s Android mobile phone platform is going to prove itself to be more secure than Apple’s iPhone in the long run. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Founded in 2002, British company Last.fm offers three complementary services: playing customized audio broadcasts on its corporate player, keeping track and statistics about of all the songs played or rated on one&#8217;s multimedia application, and building an extensive artist and songs database. Failing to load music on the Last.fm player for the last few days, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I reluctantly had to undergo a corporate workshop on Office 2007, but to be honest, I was pleasantly surprised: The office now features a PDF export filter and allows to easily add slick graphical effects. I&#8217;m thinking: hey, this is what OpenOffice should have been like! Microsoft seems to have taken heed of customers complaints and from the competition [...]]]></description>

According to reports, a glitch in Internet Explorer 6 forced Bing onto users as the default search engine. Even when users manually altered their preferences, Bing emerged once again.

The software has many locks-in: it doesn&#8217;t play Microsoft&#8217;s proprietary WMA or the open OGG Vorbis audio format. When instructed to consolidate the music library, iTunes does it with a logic of its own, separating the audio files and the images in completely remote registries; and the library manager also operates on its [...]]]></description>

When I migrated from Windows to GNU/Linux, I was well aware that it meant sacrificing certain commodities due to poor (if not non-existing) driver support. The good part is that I became very proficient with open-source graphics and desktop publishing tools [...]]]></description>
