      "Office 15" Begins Technical Preview

      Guest

      This morning, we reached an important development milestone: the beginning of the "Office 15" Technical Preview Program. Office 15 is the codename for the next generation of the Microsoft Office products and services, [PRBREAK][/PRBREAK]and the Technical Preview is the first time we share our work with a select group of customers under non-disclosure agreements. These customers play a key role in our development process by testing early builds and providing feedback, which we incorporate into the final release.
      At this early point in our development cycle, I'm not able to share too much about Office 15, but I can tell you Office 15 is the most ambitious undertaking yet for the Office Division. With Office 15, for the first time ever, we will simultaneously update our cloud services, servers, and mobile and PC clients for Office, Office 365, Exchange, SharePoint, Lync, Project, and Visio. Quite simply, Office 15 will help people work, collaborate, and communicate smarter and faster than ever before.
      While the Technical Preview program is already full, everyone will have the opportunity to try the Office 15 public beta later this summer, and we'll have more to share about the release then. In the meantime, I do want to thank everyone who is participating in the Technical Preview for their contributions and all our customers for their continued support.

      CVP of Development, Microsoft Office Division

      AMD Posts Catalyst 12.1 Drivers, Catalyst 12.2 Preview

      Guest

      AMD has posted its first Catalyst driver package of the new year, Catalyst version 12.1, the feature set of which hasn't changed much since the preview release - the banner feature is still custom [PRBREAK][/PRBREAK]application profiles, which allow users to create custom 3D and CrossFire setting for individual games. This has long been a feature offered by NVIDIA's driver packages, and it's nice to see AMD implementing it. AMD notes that users of the Catalyst 12.1 preview package should restore the Catalyst Control Center's default settings after upgrading to prevent compatibility issues.
      The 12.1 drivers also enable 3D display support for CrossFireX setups, and a "Stereo 3D mode" over HDMI 1.4a connections which supports 1080p at 30Hz on displays that can take advantage of it. New video color and quality adjustment panels offer no new features but aim to simplify adjustment of those settings. A handful of game and bug fixes for Windows 7 and Vista users round out the release notes.
      The Catalyst 12.2 preview, available here, focuses primarily on Eyefinity 2.1 improvements. These include a "larger" selection of resolutions are available, the drivers will automatically switch between different display configurations as monitors are plugged in and unplugged, the HydraVision software now allows the Windows taskbar to be moved and resized, and the driver also offers "increased support" for Display Groups, including groups of up to five monitors. Additionally, the 12.2 driver addresses many of the "known issues" with games present in the 12.1 drivers.
      Interestingly, neither driver offers support for the newly-released Radeon HD 7970 cards

      Raspberry Pi Computer Costs $25, Plays HD Video

      Guest

      The Raspberry Pi Foundation is developing a very low cost Linux computer based on the ARM11 CPU. The graphics chip is made by Broadcom, and the company has claimed that the chip features[PRBREAK][/PRBREAK] double the graphical performance of the iPhone 4S. If the claims are true, then the graphics chip will be able to vastly outperform the 700MHz ARM11. In addition to claims that it outperforms the iPhone 4S, the executive director at Broadcom, Eben Upton, also claims that its chip outperforms the Tegra 2 from NVIDIA. Upton was upfront when he made the claims, stating that "I was on the team that designed the graphics core, so I'm a little biased here, but I genuinely believe we have the best mobile GPU team in the world at Broadcom in Cambridge." It will be interesting to see some actual comparison numbers when the Raspberry Pi boards become available for sale.
      There have been some efforts made to back up the claims made by Upton, with a demonstration of the open source HTPC front-end XBMC running on a Raspberry Pi board at the SCALE 10x conference. There will be two versions available, the Model A and Model B, which will cost $25 and $35, respectively. As someone that has experience with programming for a variety of embedded systems, I will be watching the Raspberry Pi with eager anticipation.
