Just hours after screenshots of Windows 7 build 7048 Enterprise were leaked, the 64-bit flavor of build 7048 hit torrent sites courtesy of a user by the name of DiamondNRG. When asked why he didn't leak the 32-bit version, he said on SevenForums: "Nah, you x86 guys always get the new builds first, so it's time for the x64 club to fight back." This means that many users who do not have 64-bit CPUs are left out of the piracy game until the 32-bit version leaks to torrent sites. That shouldn't be long now, considering build 7048 was supplied to internal testers, a few Microsoft partners, and participants of the Technology Adopters Program (TAP).

The torrent in question has already gone through a few problems. The Demonoid tracker committed suicide, and users had to quickly scramble to supply alternative trackers to each other. Many pirates have been complaining on Windows forums that some files aren't being shared enough, and some are stuck because they can't connect to those who have the rest of the files. Furthermore, this isn't your typical leak: the torrent does not contain the actual .iso, but the file contents of it (and yes, they are digitally signed by Microsoft), which means a little less work, or a little more work, depending on how you plan to install the leaked release. As an aside, the latest build that I've heard of is 7050.

Nvidia had some very good news for customers planning to deploying Windows 7. The company says that as of today, it will be releasing regular driver updates for Windows 7. Dwight Diercks, vice president of software engineering at NVIDIA, explained where this is coming from: "We expect that all of our hard work teaming with Microsoft over the past two years will pay off for GeForce GPU owners when Windows 7 officially launches. Our customers are demanding an experience that is faster and more visual, and with the addition of many new GPU-accelerated features, including DirectX Compute, we believe Windows 7 will be well positioned to meet those needs."

In other words, Microsoft is cracking down on driver testing early for Vista's successor. The first release consists of Nvidia version 181.71 beta drivers available in both 32-bit (94.6 MB) and 64-bit (110 MB).

After leaking Windows 7 build 7032 screenshots last month, WinFuture.de has posted a screenshot clearly showing a 32-bit Enterprise edition of build 7048. We have already heard of a build 7041, but this is significant because there have been no screenshots or any other tangible proof of any of the 704x builds. The first screenshot shows the following build string: "7048.0.x86fre.winmain.090219-1845,"meaning that the build was compiled on February 19, 2009 at 6:45PM. Since it is an interim build, it's not surprising that the screenshot shows the build expiring on July 2, 2009 (that seems to be a typical expiration date for many builds).

Other than the new build number, the screenshot (full-size image) does not show too much. A date is shown in the bottom left in a European format, but all this shows is that the screenshot was taken. If you're not familiar with the fourth icon in the taskbar, that's the new Control Panel icon we've seen in 7032. There are also three other new icons and the mouseover for the start button has also been tweaked. IE8 no longer has the RC1, which is not surprising given that the browser is set to be released very soon. The second screenshot clearly shows the merging of Alt+Tab and Aero Peek that is one of the changes Microsoft is named for the RC build. Have a look at the other screenshots over at WinFuture.de.

By now, having read the headline and looked at the above image, you've concluded that I've finally gone crazy. "That Microsoft news writer at Ars has finally lost it," you mutter sadly, shaking your head. I assure you though, it hasn't happened yet, nor is this an early April Fool's joke. While you can't get the shirt pictured above from Microsoft anymore (no longer available), the company will be offering it again soon: it's called The Misdemeanor. The one that you can currently purchase for a mere $10 is The 101, and it's available at Urban Outfitters. In case you're you're wondering, yes, the binary does translate to "Softwear by Microsoft." Still think this is some kind of prank? The official website for "Softwear by Microsoft, A Clothing Lin." is already live at Microsoft.com.

What does your home page say about you or your company? Chances are, if it's like many Web sites out there, very little. Many companies realize that Web sites are a prime marketing channel for their business, but they forget that other people, including potential customers don't eat, drink, breathe and sleep their products. This means that their Web site front page ends up being a showcase for whatever company project has the focus at the moment. Some of the more common elements of a company home page are: Products for sale, News and Press Releases, Events and Announcements, Navigation and Search

What's missing from many home pages is a clear and concise description of the company. If your customers can't figure out what you're trying to sell or do for them right away they might just give up and leave immediately. Web Design Directory might be asking, "But our existing customers already know who we are and what we do." While that is probably true, your Web site should be a ready resource for attracting new customers as well as retaining existing ones. But if the new customers aren't really sure what you offer, they might leave for a firm that is clearer. What you should aim for is a balance between providing the tools returning customers crave with the information that new customers need to make the decision to go with your company. This can be just a sentence or two, with links to more if they need or want it. Leaving this out may satisfy one department's need for one more sentence about their product, but risks alienating new customers before they've even gotten to that product.

I took a look at three company home pages. Chances are you've heard of at least one of them. None of the three have names that would really tell you what the companies do, so hopefully the home pages are a help.
