Windows Phone 8″ Apollo “is a much anticipated update for users of Microsoft’s mobile operating system, but apparently the devices currently available on the market with Windows Phone 7.5″ Mango “ can not install the new version of the platform developed in Redmond .

The statements were “reliable source” to the U.S. website The Verge . The information came only hours after it was disclosed on the website an interview with Nuno Silva (award-winning developer of Microsoft), who said all phones with Windows Phone could be updated to “Apollo”.

For Now the U.S. corporation many threads did not move to clarify the matter , which can become a real disaster for the public relations department. Lumia Nokia smartphones like Windows Phone 900-7.5-are just doing their take-off in international markets and this could further damage his image.

More Firefox? Yes, for good reason. An egregious detail about his latest version that has gone unnoticed in most of briefings at the rate of release and continues to be important enough to repeat it in case anyone does not know: Firefox 5 is not an update optional, it is mandatory if you want to keep the guarantees of an application properly patched. We talked about security , of course.

Firefox logo You have to upgrade to Firefox 5!

The news you can find all the details on COM-SL and its smaller version is to say what we said: Firefox 5 is an optional upgrade is mandatory. This is because it appears that Mozilla plan is that all users remain in the current browser version, leaving the previous versions without security updates or any other kind, including 4.0 and 4.01.

seems to move at this point the best Google came out with the automatic update of your browser to the background, that insult to injury does not affect the compatibility of extensions, which does happen in Firefox, as they say in the original article, let users who are not aware of unprotected updates , leading to a debate about whether opposing keep up and maintain security or exposure with but retain their previous release without incident accessories .

To upgrade to the latest version of Firefox will have to go to the official download, though ideally your distribution has some packaging and in some repository , for example, openSUSE and Ubuntu you have it too easy, as in others like Arch Linux, PCLinuxOS, etc. If you fear losing a snap with this update, fellow MuyComputer published an article the other day to deal with it.

you know, from now on each new major release Firefox contain security patches that do not reach the previous version with any other type of update, and although this situation is an immediate risk is one thing to bear in mind, seeing that more has passed between minor developments without raising a speck of dust.

openSUSE11.4 500x312 10 good reasons to upgrade to openSUSE 11.4

MuyLinux have covered almost all the preliminary issues openSUSE 11.4 (M1, M3, M4, M5, M6, RC1), and thanks to these reviews we checked the news we can expect from this distro , but the Decalogue will leave everything more clearly. Why upgrade to openSUSE 11.4?

10. Design : openSUSE 11.4 is released with new artwork called “Stripes,” which promotes such contrast in the terminal and includes images visually very attractive home.

9. Wine : In this edition of openSUSE will have Wine 1.3.10, which is a very mature and stable version of this essential component for games and applications that use Windows.

8. Pool Management : According to the author, work by adding and removing software sources is now much more comfortable thanks to the work that has been done with the package manager.

7. It works just install : the concept “out of the box” which refers to how well that works right distro be installed is one of the more polished, especially on issues such as hardware support by default, including graphics cards.

6. Patterns native software : As in past editions, the selections or sets of packets, in openSUSE, “patterns” – provide access to sets of tasks in areas such as development and multimedia creation.

5. Security and stability : One of the tricks which the author says are key in openSUSE for many versions.

4. YaST installer : The process by which we met this old guide when installing the distribution is easy to follow even by novice users.

3. Featured upstream projects : the most popular projects among the Linux community are accessible. Things like GNOME, KDE, LXDE or even IceWM are included, and so do applications like Banshee or VLC. It’s hard not to find a popular package is not available in the repos.

2. GNOME : In addition to this approach in KDE 4.6, the distribution will also pay special attention to this desktop environment. Although those who choose to opt for default GNOME 2.x, you also have the ability to test 3 and GNOME GNOME Shell in the distribution.

1. Community : openSUSE users, as those of other Linux community, always willing to help refine and improve any part of the distribution.

As the original article’s author, the reasons are subjective , it is confessed openSUSE user and contributor to the project, and although they are somewhat general reasons, you should always be taken into account.
