Now there's more clarification on the offer: a new report indicates that the upgrade will cost those who can't wait and who buy a computer with the older operating system just $14.99. For some, the $15 charge won't seem like a lot of money. However, it's $15 more than what Microsoft charged buyers of new PCs to upgrade from Windows Vista to Windows 7, in similar circumstances back in 2009. There was also no charge to buyers of Windows XP ...<br><br> ...

The people behind Pirate Pay (not to be confused with The Pirate Bay) came up with an alternative method of combating illegal file-sharing via BitTorrent. To help them get started, they received $100,000 from Microsoft. The first major test of the Pirate Pay system involved attempting to block distribution of a Russian movie titled "Vysotsky: Thank God, I'm Alive". Pirate Pay says it managed to block 44,845 illegal downloads of that film in a single ...<br><br> ...

However, those behind the popular social network are toying with the idea of allowing certain postings to take precedence over others, for a fee.

It's an important move, because less than half of all American adults are currently signed up as organ donors, leaving a shortage of organs for transplants. At the moment, the most common way to formally consent to organ donation is to register when applying for a driver's license.

The idea is to change the Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act (CALEA), which currently doesn't give investigators the right to monitor and intercept communications.

No specific threats have been identified, but officials are nevertheless employing professional hackers to test the networks' security and readiness to resist various methods of attack.

But Bing's popularity has cooled since the days of its high-profile release. Today, Microsoft is 'searching' for ways to draw web users away from Google search and toward Bing. As part of this effort, Microsoft has introduced a major overhaul of the ways Bing displays its search results on its main page. The new strategy aims to "de-clutter" Bing's search results by getting rid of what the Redmond-based firm characterized as 'unnecessary distractions.' (Source: ...<br><br> ...

However, it's not yet clear if the landmark ban will actually be enforced. A German court granted Motorola an injunction covering distribution of Windows 7, Windows Media Player, Internet Explorer, and the Xbox 360 video game console in that country. If the ban is ever enforced, it would prevent those software and hardware products from being sold in Germany -- presumably until the patent dispute between Microsoft and Motorola is finally settled.

It's a change of strategy for a company that usually keeps to the software side of the business. Ultrabooks are slowly emerging as a popular new form factor for consumers who are showing remarkable interest in a light, portable laptop but who are not willing to compromise on performance and storage space. Although Apple's MacBook Air fits the description, the term 'ultrabook' is most often associated with Windows-based computer systems. Clamshell ...<br><br> ...

However, he says it will take at least $1 million before the company can get off the ground. The project, known as the Calyx Institute, was stimulated by a 2004 Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) request for an ISP to provide information about its customers, accompanied by an order not to reveal that such a demand had been made. Nicholas Merrill was running that ISP, and he was stunned by the request. With the help of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), ...<br><br> ...

However, experts suggest the resurgence may not represent a permanent reversal of fortune. Web statistics firm Net Applications now reports that the proportion of web users worldwide who are running Internet Explorer has risen in each of the past three months, while Google Chrome has consistently dropped during the same period. The recent growth is a notable change in a long-term Internet Explorer trend of losing its dominance over Google's ...<br><br> ...
