It’s a good week for Microsoft fanboys! Microsoft have today made Internet Explorer 9 Release Candidate available for download.
We’ve covered some of the great features IE9 has to offer in the past, we’ve also taken a look at tweaking the browser to better suit your needs.
A few enhancements here are there are notable in the newest public release though nothing too drastic from what we already know.
Note that IE9 RC is now feature complete. Whilst we may see the odd minor UI tweak here and there and undoubtedly tonnes of bug fixes before it goes gold, know that this is it folks! And I think Microsoft have done it!

 Whether or not you like playing games on your cellphone, you may have noticed people so hung up on a certain game that they hardly recognize anything around them. Which game is it? It’s called “Angry Birds”. The game first appeared on iPhone and has since then moved on to other platforms. Having a Windows Mobile, I know It will never reach my phone, as the developers have claimed NEVER to transfer the game to that platform. But in a small way (or should I say big) they have yielded – the game is now available for Windows PC. And it works on all window platforms.
If you wonder about the HALF star up there, the game’s only flaw is that it’s so addictive… PRICE: $4,99 DOWNLOAD: Angry Birds |

But what if you aren’t the average user?

Some Vendors only offer the Windows 7 Starter Edition, which in my point of view is a sham to make you pay even more money for your computer. Steer away from these offers I say – unless of course you enjoy NOT being able to change your wallpaper – ever again.
