Google Gdrive
Thursday, November 29th, 2007While Google has been ever increasing it’s Gmail capacity, Microsoft overtook them with their upgrade to their Live email services brand. But Google is looking to one up Microsoft this time. Google is getting ready to launch their G drive as some call it, a free online storage space. Although Microsoft already launched a service like this called Skydrive, it only has a 500MB capacity. No word on Google’s capacity has been released but it will surely be in the gigabyte range for their free accounts, with more storage available for purchase. The service should be available by next year.
It seems that with XP’s newest service pack won’t only be a bug fix/patch release but will actually help performance. Using an Office benchmarking tool the Devil Mountain Software group have shown the new Service Pack to have as much as a 10% boost over Service Pack 2 and over twice as fast of the same test under Vista. One more reason to stick with trusty old XP a little longer. Just goes to prove that Vista’s biggest competitor is XP itself.
