That's our rep.
But one thing you have to know - SG is a long time supporter of MS. In fact, nearly every year has some sort of news of us cooperating with MS.
Ministry of Defence, Ministry of Education, etc.
I'm glad that our Defence ministry finally has some sense to throw away MS Office and use Open Office. They also threw away MS servers for Apache. Good.![]()

A little FYI for those running non-original XP....downloading Windows Media Player 11 will require validation(after downloading) in order for the thing to work...so if U install and dun validate...means ur WMP is as good as not there...better stick with Version 10...or better still...get rid of it totally.There are better players around.Originally posted by Dr Who:Privacy concerns were raised in October when it was discovered that Windows Updates included the anti-piracy program Windows Genuine Advantage. Users were never asked for their consent to download and install the program.

Nah, pirated users can only download critical Windows Updates. Important updates, low priority updates are not available to them.Originally posted by Xcert:its more like getting him to buck up if he wants his market share...
if no updates means the software is still buggy.
if update...then dun do funny things like keeping validation from users and etc...
same issue during the initial release of XP Service Pack 2....at first wanted to only let validated users download...then after that found that its more dangerous that way...then change to let most pirated copies download...now come up with some funny ideas again...when is he going to learn?![]()
I don't even think they will pass the validation stage? I ever tried with a pirated one and it just close when it fails.Originally posted by Xcert:A little FYI for those running non-original XP....downloading Windows Media Player 11 will require validation(after downloading) in order for the thing to work...so if U install and dun validate...means ur WMP is as good as not there...better stick with Version 10...or better still...get rid of it totally.There are better players around.![]()

if they can pass the validation stage...they would most likely be using original OS already right?cracks I see on the net are still being limited to the windows update webpage use.Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:I don't even think they will pass the validation stage?

Anyway, most of the programs that comes with Windows can't be removed. They are integrated so deeply into Windows that you risk re-installing Windows if you try unorthodox ways to remove it.
my apologies for not going into details...thanks mayi for clarifying.Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:Nah, pirated users can only download critical Windows Updates. Important updates, low priority updates are not available to them.

RP systems dont have a push down application?Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:http://www.pcworld.com/article/id,138994-c,windows/article.html
Lalala, this time for Windows Desktop Search.
No wonder, I've been receiving updates for Windows Desktop, an application which I never installed. Some of RP's laptops also suddenly had it installed and had to be removed to prevent it from sucking the life out of those laptops.
As of now, it's still fixing. Those who manually update, can tell the MS Updater not to show this update any more. Those who got this installed for no reason, just remove it as per normal via Add/Remove Programs. If you like it, you can keep it.
Have, but for certain programs only.Originally posted by Rockhound:RP systems dont have a push down application?
MOE got 1..altiris...does wonders....but can control by administrators one
