What exactly is Microsoft Office 2007 Enterprise Blue Edition? A hacker group named DiGiTAL has released a software package named Microsoft Office 2007 Enterprise Blue Edition, an edition of extremely popular 2007 Office Systems suite. The group claimed the Blue Edition as a secret edition that only available to original equipment manufacturers (OEM) and not to the general public. It further claimed that the released Blue version is the copy from the original disk which is only accessible to technicians of Microsoft. That’s why probably you’ve never heard of “Blue Edition”.
Since ‘Blue Edition’ is only intended for OEMs and not for retail sale, you can accurately anticipate that it’s also the only version where there is no need for a serial, and do not need an activation. Other than this, the Microsoft Office 2007 Enterprise Blue Edition resembles all the features of standard Office 2007 Enterprise Edition, the most complete Microsoft toolset provided for people who must collaborate with others and work with information efficiently, regardless of location or network status.
However, whether the “Blue Edition” actually existed is up for debate. The “Blue Edition” may be simply just a Office 2k7 Enterprise edition with integrated product key, thus eliminate the need to activate with crack, patch or keygen.
Microsoft Office 2007 Enterprise Blue Edition consists all everything comes with Enterprise Edition, listed below:
Microsoft Office Access 2007
Microsoft Office Excel 2007
Microsoft Office Groove 2007
Microsoft Office InfoPath 2007
Microsoft Office OneNote 2007
Microsoft Office Outlook 2007
Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2007
Microsoft Office Publisher 2007
Microsoft Office Word 2007
Microsoft Office 2007 Enterprise Blue Edition can be downloaded with BT torrent, Microsoft.Office.2007.Enterprise.Blue.Edition-DiGiTAL.torrent which found in most torrent sites such as Demonoid. Once downloaded, unpack the file dgl-moebe.rar and then burn the file to CD or mount it in virtual CD-ROM drive to run the setup installation.

A British company has developed a camera that can detect weapons, drugs or explosives hidden under people’s clothes from up to 25 meters away in what could be a breakthrough for the security industry. The T5000 camera, created by a company called ThruVision, uses what it calls “passive imaging technology” to identify objects by the natural electromagnetic rays — known as Terahertz or T-rays — that they emit. The high-powered camera can detect hidden objects from up to 80 feet away and is effective even when people are moving. It does not reveal physical body details and the screening is harmless, the company says. The technology, which has military and civilian applications and could be used in crowded airports, shopping malls or sporting events, will be unveiled at a scientific development exhibition sponsored by Britain’s Home Office on March 12-13.
“Acts of terrorism have shaken the world in recent years and security precautions have been tightened globally,” said Clive Beattie, the chief executive of ThruVision. “The ability to see both metallic and non-metallic items on people out to 25 meters is certainly a key capability that will enhance any comprehensive security system.” The technology works on the basis that all people and objects emit low levels of electromagnetic radiation. Terahertz rays lie somewhere between infrared and microwaves on the electromagnetic spectrum and travel through clouds and walls. Depending on the material, the signature of the wave is different, so that explosives can be distinguished from a block of clay and cocaine is different from a bag of flour.

Have you ever dreamed of a motherboard capable of handling two Intel Core 2 Extreme QX9775 processors? Have you ever dreamed of having an 8-core monster ready to run? Well, it’s now about to become a reality!
Yes! Code named as Skulltrail, the Intel D5400XS is the new and powerful generation of motherboards.
The following are some of the features available :

The newest member to be expected in the GeForce family is the GeForce 9800gx2. It is to replace the 8800 Ultra (single GPU) in the next production lineup.
Specs
Although it is yet unknown whether it will support the Quad SLI configuration, it is expected to 30% faster than the 8800 Ultra and poses a definite threat to the ATI Radeon HD 3870 X2.
Provided that the new solution by graphics product group of Advanced Micro Devices offers performance of the GeForce 8800 Ultra, AMD’s new dual-chip graphics card will have to cost the same amount of money as the new GeForce 9800 GTX. Unfortunately, dual-chip configurations offer performance advantages over a single-chip ATI Radeon HD 3870 only in cases when its driver can take advantage of multi-GPU ATI CrossFireX technology. Therefore, in all other cases the GeForce 9800 GTX will be faster compared to ATI’s dual-chip solution, making it very hard for ATI Radeon HD 3870 X2 to finds its place on the market.
First of all, I’d like to wish everyone a HAPPY NEW YEAR! Hope everyone has a blast this year.
Now, moving on, I thought I’d share a registry trick with you which you might find both useful and neat. The first allows a particular user to login automatically at startup even if the user has assigned a password to his profile. I found this particularly useful when I was installing the drivers after installing Windows.
So here’s what you have to do:
P.S. - I have tried these only on windows XP and not on Vista as yet. But if anyone has tried it on Vista please let me know
Oh and let me know if you have any questions/suggestion. You can contact me on the.mystic.ranger@gmail.com
Many of you probably know and use the “Send To” menu that is available on the drop down menu when you right click on a file or folder. This has proved to be a very useful tool but how would you like to modify this a bit? So that you could send files/folders to locations of your choice rather than only to the those given by default? Well that’s precisely what I’m going to show you as to how it can be done!
To add a destination to the Send To menu, you must add a shortcut to the SendTo folder. To do this, follow these steps:
1. Click Start, and then click Run.
2. In the Open box, type sendto, and then click OK.
3. Add a destination by doing one of the following:
• Use the drag-and-drop operation to move the item that you want to the SendTo folder; to do so, right-click, and then click Create Shortcuts Here.
-or-
• Point to New on the File menu, and then click Shortcut.
Follow the instructions in the Create Shortcut Wizard.
A new shortcut is created in the SendTo folder, and it is displayed on the Send To menu.
To delete a destination from the Send To menu, just delete that shortcut file from the SendTo folder.
As you many of you may know, a very famous BitTorrent tracker has been been shut down. I am referring to Demonoid.com. Although you can still upload and download using the torrent files you’ve already downloaded from Demonoid, you can’t visit the torrent search engine or the forum. This is due to the fact that the CRIA (Canadian Recording Industry Association) has threatened the ISP for Demonoid.com. As a result an open letter was posted to the CRIA “A former music buyer” and what an impressive letter it was!!
I listen to heavy metal music, a form of music that “the industry” stopped supporting many years ago, so I have a hard time feeling any sympathy. Sites such as Demonoid have done far more to promote the music I love than your organization or the industry in general has ever done. I can find out about new artists and new releases from artists that are never promoted. I can listen to music from artists that have never been played on the radio, will never be shown on MuchMusic or MTV, and never have a review or even mention of their new album written about in the local newspaper. From listening to this music, I can make an informed decision if I wish to purchase the album or not, as I am not going to gamble $15-20 on something that I haven’t heard anything off of before.
25 years ago, I primarily learned about music from friends who dubbed a copy onto a cassette tape, where I could listen to it and make a decision if I wanted to buy the tape for myself. Now, many years removed from school, my “gang” of friends to share music with has shifted from cassette tapes and the school cafeteria to sharing mp3’s online. I listen to some things that I don’t like, and consequently, I don’t buy those albums. What I do like, I buy, or at least I used to, before your decision intended to stop me from hearing new music.
The industry cries that record sales are down, and blames this all on internet downloading. I won’t be so naïve as to say that internet downloading has no impact on the sales. Downloading has certainly stopped me from making the stupid purchases where I heard one single that I liked and bought an entire album only to find out that the rest of the songs are crap, and the CD sits collecting dust on my shelf. But for every CD that I didn’t buy based on those premises, there are 2 or 3 other CDs that I did buy because I heard of them for the first time on a site like Demonoid.
In the meantime, the music industry itself needs to recognize that they are to blame for sagging record sales. For years, they have been marketing recycled crap, and people are getting tired of it. On the odd occasion that something fresh and new accidentally slips through and gets radio play, the music industry immediately signs a seemingly infinite number of clone bands that makes the “new, fresh” sound boring almost instantly. It seems the music industry doesn’t even care about making or promoting good music any more. Instead, they market a young, pretty face that can dance provocatively and lip-synch well, and push this on the radio stations to play while getting the tabloids to print large pictures of their breasts. If bands like AC/DC or Motorhead were to emerge today, they would never be successful; not because of poor record sales due to downloading, but due to the fact that they’re ugly so the record company wouldn’t promote them, if they picked them up at all. In the meantime, they’re falling all over themselves to promote Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan, or any teenage tramp that can be airbrushed to look sexy.
The record labels cry about downloading cutting into the profits of the sales of albums. They put out “greatest hits” albums by 20-year olds with 2 or 3 albums under their belts, released with one new track to try and sucker the fans that already have both albums into spending another $20 for one new song, or re-releasing a 3-month old album with a “previously unreleased bonus track”. Then they can’t understand why people aren’t buying them, and cry foul that people are downloading the one new song instead.
I know not only the record companies are crying. Artists that have been around long enough to have enough clout to get a cut of the record sales are concerned about their cut, like Metallica that also clamor that “downloading is evil”, and then go on to sell over 9 million copies of their last album instead of 9.1 million. Boo hoo. Meanwhile, many younger, smaller artists favor downloading, because they know it’s the only way that people will get to hear the music and in turn come out to see their shows, because the record label sure as hell isn’t promoting them. But they can’t say that out loud, can they? If they do, guess which band is going to get dropped by the label?
So tell me, what does the CRIA do to promote metal? Oh, right, you’ve got a link to the top 50 “metal” albums in Canada, which after a quick glance at the top ten this week includes punk acts like Dropkick Murphys, Finger Eleven, and Billy Talent, and rock acts like Nickelback and Queen, but very little that resembles heavy metal. (Perhaps you should ask the Celtic punk band, Dropkick Murphys, what they think of being labeled as “metal”.)
And also tell me, without Demonoid, where would I have found out about bands like Evile or Dublin Death Patrol and made a decision to purchase their album online (because no record store that I have found in Canada carries either one). And god forbid the CRIA would care about the promotion of Canadian talent, such as longtime recording artist Annihilator, which released one of the better albums of 2007. However, I have yet to see their new album sold in any store in Canada, including HMV’s flagship store on Yonge Street in Toronto, and I ultimately had to buy a copy from a UK website. Considering the only place I had heard about this album was having downloaded it from Demonoid, do you really expect anyone to make this kind of effort to buy an album without ever having heard it?
The record labels and CRIA have gone to great lengths to tell us that downloading and sharing music is killing the music industry. Open your eyes and you will see that the music industry dinosaur has already been killing itself for years, and by resisting technology rather than embracing it and using it to their advantage. “Oh, but they have,” you try to insist, pointing to the sites devoted to selling music in mp3 format online. I notice that most of the metal bands I am interested in are still not available through these services. I also notice that buying an entire album ends up costing as much, if not more, than if I went to buy it in the store, even though there are no longer costs of materials or shipping that have to be paid for, and once again, I fail to come up with any sympathy for the music industry. I hope the music industry does die, because I know that music itself will not die so with the corrupt aspects of the industry gone, only then might music once again flourish.
Sincerely,
A former music buyer”
The RIAA andCRIA have better rethink their business models… ASAP!!
