Here is a short video of some programs running on Windows 7. Even with these programs running, everything from Google Chrome to Windows Live Messenger was a seamless and lagless experience. This OS is an AMD  Turion X2 Ultra Dual Core with 3 GB of RAM running 64 bit, so it can definitely handle more than this. Jump on the bandwagon, go 64 bit!

Many people have asked me how to extract the audio from a YouTube video clip, so here is the quick tutorial on how to achieve this.

I have been asked many times how to partition a hard-drive, so I’m writing this blog with two methods, one for Windows Vista users and one for users with other operation systems.  For Vista users, life is much easier as Microsoft has embedded a neat feature in their operation system which allows you to do this very easily.  Here is a quick video running through how to partition a hard drive.

The new iPhone is almost certainly on it’s way. Daring Fireball’s John Gruber has confirmed most of the specs that were leaked earlier (who has been accurate in the past about such things) emphasizing that it will have a major speed increase compared to current iPhones because of the new upgraded processor and double the RAM. He also confirmed that it will contain a 3.2 MP camera with video recording and basic editing. Engadget reports the following new specs in addition to the earlier ones:

• no more metal band around the front edges
• 1.5 times more battery life
• OLED screen
• built in FM transmitter
• lighting up Apple logo on the back
• rubber tread backing

There has also been rumors and reports on some carriers accidentally leaking proof of new iPhones. AT & T supposedly is out of 16GB iPhone 3G’s and is not planning on restocking and also accidentally posted a page on their website for a trade in of a 32GB iPhone 3G(which does not exist as of yet) for a Blackberry Bold. Other carriers around the world have also made similar posts and immediately taken them down. Vodafone also reached an “End of Life” for the 16GB iPhone 3G’s. Analysts and reports are currently hinting at a July 17th 2009 June 19, 2009 release date for the new iPhone.

UPDATE: Looks like Engadget went a bit wild with the predictions, maybe next year that list will be fulfilled?
