Windows 7

At last I bought Windows 7 ultimate for $320 ($2,499), from history here I bought Vista nearly 3 years ago. The rearm trick didn't work and I have no other alternatives of OS for work. My MacBook Pro just can't connect to network resources running obsolete versions of windows server here.

How much longer I can use my Evaluation copy? Type "slmgr.vbs -dlv" in cmd.exe you'll find out below.

slmgr

You may get a different expiry date if you run 'winver' in command line since you are allowed to extend the evaluation period a few times, that's called 'rearm count' or Re-Arm a grace period of 30 days each count.

Other tricks I may need to extend the life of my RC copy are here and there.

Bluetooth mouse

I have never used bluebooth mouse before.

It's particularly good if you feel 2 USB ports aren't enough and you didn't bring a hub with you. Bluetooth requires no dongle and most notebook will support it.

I'm very pleased with the touchpad on my new MBP especially the gestures using multiple fingers. Well once in a while a mouse is better.
