Updated revision of all the recent developments connected to the computer with a CD-ROM, the third question of how computers work is that a cool Science Museum in a book. But make no mistake – this is not a book for children. The computer teaches readers of all hues in the machine, and it is a formidable task.

In these times, computers are everywhere, and do almost everything. We rely on them in our personal lives, our work lives, our social life. . . . . absolutely everywhere. They hold our meetings, manage our business to our records, our music, photos and important documents for us to access the Internet, and so on and on.

An official Windows 7 upgrade chart has now been released by Microsoft and this upgrade chart explains the upgrades from both Windows Vista and Windows XP upgrading to Windows 7 OS.

What the Windows 7 upgrade chart does basically is it give the user an idea of if they will need to do a clean install or can simply upgrade the OS, but the chart does seem somewhat confusing for the average user.

Microsoft has obviously tried to be thorough with the chart and includes both 32-bit and 64-bit editions, but it would have been simpler to combine the 2 rows as the upgrade paths are identical.

The Internet has been around for about 14 years now, which many would consider to be a while. But, despite all that time, the legal system still hasn’t had time (or so it seems) to catch up, as there are still many uncertainties about what’s legal, and not, online. Even things that are blatantly illegal, or should be, are not, and as you could imagine, that can cause a headache for some people.

Once such crime is theft of a domain name. That is, to physically log (or break) into the rightful owners domain account, change the information, and simply call it your own. That’s just what Daniel Goncalves did with web URL P2P.com. Except, he didn’t just steal it, he actually sold it from right under the real owner’s noses. As you’d expect, such a domain would sell for a pretty penny, and it did… $110,000 to NBA player Mark Madsen.

It’s hard to tell if the owners received the domain name back yet, or not, but it’s proven to be a complicated process in having the case dealt with, since, as mentioned before, it seems that no one knows just how to handle legal cases like this. It’s a legal gray area, but with the Internet what it is today, I don’t think it’s safe to keep on going without hardened laws. After all, the owners of P2P.com had the money to fight their case… many people do not.

The main problems affecting victims of domain name theft are lack of experience of law enforcement, lack of clear legal precedents, and the money necessary to launch an investigation. DomainNameNews, which first reported the arrest, relates the Angels’ experience in reporting the crime. When the Angels called Florida police to report the theft, a uniformed officer in a squad car was sent to their home. “What’s a domain?” the officer asked them, according to DomainNameNews.
