MS staff

There was a pilot flying a small single engine charter plane, with a couple of very important executives on board. He was coming into Seattle airport through thick fog with less than 10m visibility when his instruments went out. So he began circling around looking for landmark. After an hour or so, he starts running pretty low on fuel and the passengers are getting very nervous. Finally, a small opening in the fog appears and he sees a tall building with one guy working alone on the fifth floor. The pilot banks the plane around, rolls down the window and shouts to the guy "Hey! Where am I?" To this, the solitary office worker replies "You're in a plane." The pilot rolls up the window, executes a 275 degree turn and proceeds to execute a perfect blind landing on the runway of the airport 5 miles away. Just as the plane stops, so does the engine as the fuel has run out.

The passengers are amazed and one asks how he did it. "Simple" replies the pilot, "I asked the guy in that building a simple question. The answer he gave me was 100 percent correct but absolutely useless, therefore that must be Microsoft's support office and from there the airport is just a while away."

Is Windows a virus?

No, Windows is not a virus. Here's what viruses do:
They replicate quickly Okay, Windows does that

Viruses use up valuable system resources, slowing down the system as they do so okay, Windows does that

Viruses will, from time to time, trash your hard disk Okay, Windows does that, too

Viruses are usually carried, unknown to the user, along with valuable programs and systems Sigh... Windows does that, too

Viruses will occasionally make the user suspect their system is too slow (see 2) and the user will buy new hardware Yup, that's with Windows, too

Until now it seems Windows is a virus but there are fundamental differences: Viruses are well supported by their authors, are running on most systems, their program code is fast, compact and efficient and they tend to become more sophisticated as they mature

So, Windows is *not* a virus

Reliance Thunder Plans and Service Query

Posted: 06 Apr 2014 01:22 AM PDT

Is anyone using Reliance Thunder Plans in Nungambakkam Chennai? If so, what would be the download rate for 2 Mbps plan? How good is their service to deal with connectivity issues. I am using Tata Indicom for over 10 years 512Kbps Infinity 500 for over 2 years. Till last week I was getting 100-200 kpbs for torrent downloads. Now suddenly I am getting on 50 kpbs. Now I can either browse or download only.

Airtel lied!

Posted: 06 Apr 2014 01:18 AM PDT

So one day i decided to cancel my airtel broadband connection to try other services,i rang up the customer care but it tried to lure me by offering me a discount on a plan.I used to pay 1400 per month,1 Mbps speed,30 GB limit but after the talk with customer care he offered me the plan of 2 Mbps,80 GB limit which is officially for 1700 at a discount of 10-20%.Also in my earlier plan i had a bill capping wherein if my call charges exceeded Rs. 300,they'd be free.I have been using this voice capping for years and the customer care promised me that i would not lose this capping upon upgrading my plan.So i agreed to shift the plan and not cancel my airtel broadband.

 

Fast forward 1 month,i get the bill and voila,there's no discount whatsoever and the capping is gone.I immediately call up customer care and all he could say was "sorry,we have no such plan" and he said that they are not responsible for what their other employee said and that they were sorry,they cannot refund.I asked them to at least revert to my old plan but they said i'd have to use this plan for at least 3 months before i can change it.

 

I thought Airtel was an honest company,their prices were a bit high but they didn't use cheap tactics.Turns out i was wrong.What can i do now?

Windows Phone 8.1

Posted: 06 Apr 2014 12:37 AM PDT

http://www.engadget.com/2013/06/08/windows-phone-notifications/

You know how it goes, you buy a phone on eBay, and it comes with a developer / pre-release version of a major mobile OS. Well, if these images are to be believed, that's at least what happened to one bargain-hunting Windows Phone fan. The screenshots -- said to be taken from a Nokia 920 -- show Windows Phone 8, but with a few new tweaks and features. Most notable, will likely be the notifications, but other tidbits include App list ordering based on frequency of use, week view in the calendar and the option to kill apps from the multitask screen. The phone reports a build number of: 12084.WPMAIN(wpbldlab).20130509-1407 leading some to infer that this version could have been compiled sometime in May. A tease of something to come? As always, hard to tell, but expect the price of second-hand 920s to bump up a little, for the next few weeks at least.

Want to buy a new battery for Dell Inspiron 1440

Posted: 06 Apr 2014 12:33 AM PDT

My battery's totally screwed now. It has to be on charging all the time now. I was wondering if I could buy a battery whose battery backup is like better than what my original battery would give (Generally 2-3 hours when it was good). Is this possible to get a battery which would give me good 4-5 hours of backup, or I'd get the same as my previous original battery that came with the laptop would give?

Custom Plans on Airtel Broadband

Posted: 05 Apr 2014 09:07 PM PDT

Airtel called me today and said since I'd taken Smartbytes for 12gb last month, they wanted to offer 125 fup plan(80gb now) at the same speed(8mbps) for 50rs extra.

 

I also heard they are giving 3g at 2g rates in my area these days. Is airtel on a PR improving spree? Anyone got offers like this?

Reliance Thunder 549 plan disconnectivity - don't go for it they make fool of us by giving attractive price bands

Posted: 05 Apr 2014 08:58 PM PDT

I use the reliance thunder 549 unlimited plan from june month of 2013 to till now. The connection seems to drop every now and then. There is no connectivity at all for more than 5 days in a month even after paying the bill. The customer service is worse of all, they have the standard answer that the problem will be rectified within 24 hours or 2-3 business days. if the connection breaks in saturday means then no solution until wednesday, even it takes next to get fixed up. Even now i am facing the problem of frequent dis-connectivity for more than two weeks, i complained regarding this and ref. number was provided which is like a bull shit that is of no use at all. The default answer continues. When i approached the office in chennai nungambakkam they say the same answer that there is a problem in card and will get fixed up soon. After receiving the mail regarding the bill payment those people frequently call and send messages to remind for paying the bill before due date and a penalty of Rs100 beyond the due date. But doesn't cares about registered complaints regarding problem faced by user. Better don't go for reliance very poor service and worst customer care. The spend money on this connection isn't worth at all.
