Why Most People Choose Windows VPS

August 9, 2013 By 901am

windows_vps_for_successful_website_hosting

So you have a great business idea that you’d like to get online? If that’s the case, then you undoubtedly want the right host for your online business. There are many things to consider when selecting a suitable host. One of the most important is the operating system.

One option you can select is a Windows-based server. If that’s the case, then you’re most likely going to opt for a Virtual Private Server (VPS) or a Virtual Dedicated Server (VDS) for cost reasons.

As the name implies, a virtual server is not an actual, physical server but a specific partition that’s part of a larger server. Think of a virtual server as a component of a “real” server that has been sliced up into numerous, smaller operations. This enables people who run small businesses (like yours) to share the same physical server at a reasonable price.

Here are some of the benefits of using a Windows-based virtual server. [Read more…]

Microsoft Patents “Whacking” Feature for Phones

September 18, 2012 By 901am

Microsoft has recently filed a patent that would elicit two specific responses from mobile phone users. First is “why didn’t they think of this earlier?” The second is, “what possessed them to call it whacking?”

The patent Microsoft filed basically involves a new way of triggering a phone to go on silent or stop making a sound by “whacking” the device. You have to acknowledge that the process of whacking a phone to keep it quiet is, well, genius. It’s one of those things that’s so obvious, so basic that you wonder why no one implemented this feature before. [Read more…]

Court Bans Sales of Motorola Android Products in Germany

July 30, 2012 By 901am

Motorola has suffered a setback in Europe. A ruling promulgated by a Mannheim Court has resulted in Motorola’s Android-based devices getting banned for sale in Germany. More specifically, any Motorola device that uses FAT technology for its internal storage are going to be pulled from stores and other sales avenues in Germany. The ruling’s effect is immediate.

The court ruling was basically in favor of Microsoft’s suit. The software giant has a patent for the FAT or File Allocation Table, a technology that allows people to more readily find and label media files when using a storage system that runs FAT. With this ruling, Motorola may be forced to just implement a different file system, but in the meantime, expect the company to file an appeal with the court. [Read more…]
