Europe getting 7 without IE, Bing is taking off, Morro, Google goes after Exchange, and more.
- Microsoft will sell Windows 7 "E" Editions in Europe without Internet Explorer
- Bing is off to a fast start
- "News" surfaces about Morro
- WWDC: What's in it for a Windows user?
- Google goes after Exchange, offers free Outlook migration tool
Tip of the Week:
- Living la Vida 7 means living like you have Mac OS X - Sometimes "going all in" requires a bit of rethinking. In this case, pre-populating the Windows 7 taskbar with all the shortcuts you regularly use and forgoing the Start Menu almost entirely.
Software Picks of the Week
- Game Booster will disable system processes and clean your ram at the touch of a button to optimize your gaming performance.
Thanks to Jason More for the tip. - Mozilla Firefox Add-on Collector allows you to pre-define all the Firefox add-ons you want and install them in a single click. Nice for reinstalls
