Don’t be afraid to switch to Android!

I’ve had a blackberry phone with AT+T for the last 10 years. Over the last several months, I’ve been having trouble with dropping calls, very poor reception and extremely slow web browsing.

I tried replacing the SIM card and wiping out all the data on the blackberry but still had the same issues.

I was due for an upgrade so when I went to the AT+T store and asked for a new phone. They recommended getting an Android phone. I was hesitant, at first, because I’ve had the blackberry for so long and was afraid of trying something new. But when the AT+T sales rep told me that she also had just recently switched over from a blackberry to an android phone and loved her new phone, I decided it was time I faced my fears.

I have had the new Samsung Galaxy s2 phone for a few weeks now and I couldn’t be happier. I have yet to drop a call, even while driving! The service across Long Island, so far, has been much better that it had been with my old blackberry. The 4.3” screen is so bright and clear. There are thousands of apps to download, all at the touch of a button. It was very easy to add both work and personal email accounts. The browsing speed is incredibly fast and I love that there is an 8mp camera and that you can video record at 1080p in full HD. You can make calls, send messages, schedule appointments and launch apps with the ease of voice commands. My only regret is that I did not switch to an Android sooner. I love my new Samsung Galaxy s2 and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a new phone. It will make you forget you ever had a blackcherry or quackberry or whatever it’s called.

October 11, 2011 Today is Microsoft Patch Day!

patchday

 

In an effort to keep your computers from being hacked Microsoft is releasing today, in it’s monthly series of patches, 8 separate security fixes to patch 23 holes in a key range of their products. Some of these fixes are deemed critical as they will stop hackers from remotely running code in Windows, Internet Explorer, .NET and Silverlight. 

Another bulletin, marked as important, addresses flaws in components found only on 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows Vista and Windows 7, while there are two more that affect all versions of Microsoft's operating system.

One bulletin patches vulnerabilities in Microsoft Forefront Unified Access Gateway, one of the company's secure remote access lashups. The versions affected are 2010, 2010 Update 1, 2010 Update 2 and 2010 Service Pack 1.

There is also a fix for elevation of privilege (EoP) flaws in Windows XP and Windows Server 2003, while the other addresses a denial of service (DoS) condition in the Microsoft Host Integration Server 2004 SP1, 2006 SP1, 2009 and 2010.

Users with Windows Update enabled to "install updates automatically" will receive the critical patches by default and can decide if they want to install the important updates.
