Windows 8 is not very good for assembled desktops, its interface makes sense only if you have a track pad (like in laptops) or touch screen. also Windows 8.1 update is bringing back the start menu. (think it releases next month)

Can I download content from iTunes University (iTunes U) with these softwares ?

OEM version was originally meant for PC assemblers who custom assembled desktop PC for home users or laptop vendors. OEM versions were ineligible for support from Microsoft personnel and the installation was tied to your motherboard. You could install (and reinstall) it to one PC only. If your...

When i bought my copy of wndows 8 from fk i had phoned them up to clarify about the version ... funny thing was they had no idea what version it was. I think they named it normal edition without understanding what version it really is

@ayanavish Link to coderun is broken For those using Javascript i strongly suggest JSFiddle. It runs in the browser and supports most javascript libraries like JQuery and Dojo. And the cool part is you can save code snippets and post the link on forums and other people can easily trouble shoot...

If you want to learn programming as a hobby i would strongly recommend Python simply because it is easier to code than both the languages mentioned. In fact most of the products you have used started off as python projects example: Instagram, facebook, dropbox etc. Between Java and .Net i would...

From what i understand, there are just 2 versions of Win 8 .. The Upgrade version and OEM version. The first one is for people who have previous versions of windows and the second is for people who want a fresh install OS. I saw 2 versions on fk, the one you linked to seem to be the oEM version...

Thank You . i am still working on my writing style ... why change the topic ? ? The thread topic reflects the content doesn't it ? . And this has everything to do with phones/smartphones !! (Nowadays most people choose their phones based on the mobile OS as much as anything else )

You are being greedy :D Many of the tech in the proposed Ubuntu Phone are very very new... Solid State Drive for a Phone !!! and 128 GB of that to boot. Sapphire Crystal Display ?? You need diamonds to scratch that, Gorilla Glass doesn't stand a chance in comparison And from what they said...

Well MS has been a bungling a lot and i think others could do better than MS when it comes to mobile computing. I recently spoke to an MS employee and he was blaming Steve Balmer (current CEO) for the mess. He ignored the mobile market for too long ..... But yes currently they are the only...

If you look closely many of these *contenders* have a very different take on what a mobile OS is supposed to be like Take the recently released Firefox OS, all the *apps* on firefox OS are HTML 5 websites. Just imagine how easy it would be to scale such website apps to any screen size, Desktop...
