  Forget Windows 10, it's Windows Vista -- 2018 Edition we want!

  Publié: septembre 11, 2018, 7:22pm CEST par Wayne Williams

  People have often said that Microsoft operating systems follow a pattern, with good and bad versions alternating -- Windows 95 (bad), Windows 98 (good), Windows Me (bad), Windows XP (good), Windows Vista (bad), Windows 7 (good), Windows 8.x (bad), Windows 10 (good -- now at least). It’s mostly true, although if Windows Vista had been given the same length of life that Windows 10 has enjoyed to date, there’s a good chance a large portion of Windows users would still be using it today. Vista wasn’t bad as such, just very unfinished. If the aging OS had a modern makeover,… [Continue Reading]

  Publié: septembre 11, 2018, 4:09pm CEST par Ian Barker

  A new study from IT solutions provider US Signal reveals that 70 percent of companies have had at least one unplanned IT disruption in the last year. These outages are caused by a variety of factors with natural disasters accounting for 53 percent, errors while implementing new technology (26 percent), ransomware (21 percent) and IT overloads (21 percent). This leads to an understandable level of concern, with 66 percent believing they are vulnerable to IT disruption, and one in 10 stating they feel very vulnerable to these interruptions.

  HyperX releases Alloy FPS RGB mechanical gaming keyboard with Kailh Silver switches

  Publié: septembre 11, 2018, 2:58pm CEST par Brian Fagioli

  Mechanical keyboards are a dime a dozen these days. In fact, Amazon is littered with countless inexpensive models from no-name companies. You know what, though? They are not created equally. Quite often, the build quality on these cheap offerings is downright terrible. When it comes to typing, a defective or non-functioning key can be absolutely maddening. That's why I always suggest sticking with a reputable brand, such as Logitech or HyperX -- you'll be glad you did. Speaking of the latter, the company has a new mechanical gaming keyboard that looks quite intriguing. The "Alloy FPS RGB," as it is… [Continue Reading]

  Publié: septembre 11, 2018, 11:01am CEST par Ian Barker

Microsoft Azure was the cloud service most exploited for DDoS attacks over this period, with 38.7 percent of such attacks using Azure servers on average. Amazon Web Services (AWS) was used in 32.7 percent of attacks, and Alibaba servers used in 17.9 percent.… [Continue Reading]
