Mary Jo Foley: Reports say Microsoft is attempting to come to a settlement with European antitrust officials over two antitrust matters pending in the European Union.
Sam Diaz: If you've used Twitter, you know about URL-shortening services such as tinyurl and bit.ly. Now, it appears that spammers are getting in on the shortcut URL game.
Adrian Kingsley-Hughes: Last week a huge amount was written regarding a small tidbit that was uncovered in the EULA of a leaked build of Windows 7 which suggested that Microsoft planned on offering a Windows 7 Home Premium "Family Pack."

Simon Hensby is a successful "failure" in my eyes. He gave up his regular job because his autistic kid was having trouble and could not cope in regular school. He lived on part-time jobs just to keep going.
In the meantime he was creating useful educational software that an autistic child could use. Now millions of people and schools enjoy what he sacrificed to create!
Added Comment: Blastgroups provides lots of freebies. However it has a confusing interface. I have been doing computers since the 70's and it IS confusing to me. However if you can wade through, you will get LOTS of great stuff for your group. - Computer Doc
