Submission + - Deeper look at ProRes 422 video
JonathanF writes: "AppleInsider decided to poke around the ProRes 422 video codec for Apple's Final Cut Studio 2 and seems to have found that Apple's move was as much a practical one as a way of selling more Macs — basically, that Apple was faced with limiting HD video editing to very expensive systems and that it needed a way of making the format work for everyday computers. I'm sure more than a few video gurus will be happy that their MacBook Pro will handle HD on a live video shoot now."

Submission + - Windows discontinuing XP Licensing January 2008
mrtr33 writes: Microsoft will discontinue selling licenses of Windows XP to focus more on Vista, despite the lagging OS's popularity. Is this a risky move on the part of the software giant? With Google on the heels of a complete Office suite, and the rising interest in Linux, should they be forcing users hands?
Submission + - PC makers walk fine line with 'crapware'
WeeBit writes: ""For years, computer makers have managed to wring a few extra bucks of profit out of each PC sale by bundling all sorts of third-party software.
While adding software, setting default search engines and including toolbars can all put money in PC makers' pockets, the practice has also alienated some consumers who say all such "crapware" is clogging their hard drives and bogging down their systems. "
PC makers walk fine line with 'crapware'
I would lots rather be offered the full version software, than get the trial versions. I don't like toolbars on the browsers at all. Plus I don't feel the public should have to pay for something they don't get in the first place. Maybe if they offered us like five software fully functional for a year at a reduced price? The trial versions are definitely hated by me, and many others. Most I never intend to use, or I prefer another software to do the job. Plus they do clog the pc with this stuff. I am a firm believer of choice. Most of the vendors though you get what you get, and your stuck with it. So normally a new computer to me means cleaning the hard drive as soon as you take it out of the box.* As I said though... Why should we pay for something we are not getting?"
