Review: VMWare Unity May 3, 2009
Posted by burace17 in Uncategorized.add a comment
Yes, this product has been out a while but I just downloaded VMWare last week and noticed this feature.
VMWare Unity allows you to combine your virutal OS and your host OS together. Here is a screenshot:
As you can see, I have Windows Movie Maker 2.1 and Windows Movie Maker 6 side-by-side. To activate this feature, click View, Unity in VMWare and the active application in the guest OS will be on your host machine. You will also see a button when you hover over the start menu in the host OS which will allow you to change applications.
Rating: 5 out of 5 starts
I highly recommend that you use this feature if you have VMWare
Review: Windows Live Essentials April 10, 2009

I reviewed this application a year ago and it’s changed a lot since. The interface has been changed to blend more into Windows 7 which you will see in the screen shots below.
Part 1 – Installation
The installer is very user-friendly and doesn’t force you to install all the applications.
– It’s nice that you can select what you want and don’t want to install
– The installation took a little longer then I expected, but I have slow internet
– After about 30 minutes it’s done.
– And you can sign up for a Live ID if you haven’t already
– Looks like it worked
– Windows Live Mail is my second favorite email app next to Outlook
– Photo Gallery isn’t really need in Vista but it’s nice to have in XP
– Windows Live Writer is my favorite blogging application. Highly recommended
– Even though I’m not a fan of toolbars, this one is actually quite nice.
Overall rating: 4 out of 5
Installer: 4.5 out of 5
Mail: 5 out of 5
Photo Gallery: 4 out of 5
Writer: 5 out of 5
Toolbar: 3.5 out of 5

Man, it’s been over a month since my last post. Sorry, I’ve been busy lately and haven’t had time to update this blog. Anyway, I finally got my browser’s website up and here it is http://browsernet.sourceforge.net. I will update everything about my browser there but this blog will be for talking about anything other then my browser.
My browser is hosted on SourceForge.net! August 7, 2008

I submitted my application earlier today and got accepted tonight! For those of you who don’t know, I am writing a browser written completely in Microsoft Visual Basic. It has over 1100 lines of code and took 4 months to write. I used Visual Studio 2005 Standard and Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0. It will take a few days before everything is working but when everything is working, the website will be http://browsernet.sourceforge.net (not up yet) and the project page will be http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/browsernet
