Reap and Rip Tuesday January 9, 2007
After Pixeleden appeared in CSS Beauty on January 2006, it instantly got two types of reception.
First, Pixeleden got recognized and appeared in numerous Web standards/CSS gallery websites. Among of these are SmashingMagazine, CSS Reboot, CSS Import CSS Mania, CSS Green, CSS Blast (Russia), CSS Drive, CoolHomepages, DesignLinkDatabase (Japan), CSS-Demo (France), ProEstilo (Mexico). I would also like to mention personal blogs that featured my website, Cue.Zusan (Japan), PixelGangster (Germany), Andy Budd (UK), Patrick Haney (Flickr set) and many more that featured PIxeleden which I can not remember at this point. Thank you.
Second, pixeleden has been a victim of disrespect. It has been ripped several times last year and I would like to thank the people who took time to report these sightings: Denford.dk, Catholic.Net, Zygmunt Legutko, Marcel.Tv, Enstyled. I would like to stress out again that my site, its photography and all of its design elements are under full copyrights.
Fusion Beta Saturday December 23, 2006
VMWare announced today that the Fusion beta program is now live.
The new VMware desktop product for the Mac, codenamed Fusion, allows Intel-based Macs to run x86 operating systems, such as Windows, Linux, NetWare and Solaris, in virtual machines at the same time as Mac OS X. It is built on VMware’s rock-solid and advanced desktop virtualization platform that is used by over four million users today.
If you sign up for the beta program earlier you can access to donwload the Fusion beta and other information regarding the release here. Otherwise you can will need to sign up first.
I am eager to test it and see if it can match Parallels Desktop both on speed and stability.
I would love to hear your test drive result.
Update: I finally got to download the installer after signing up again. Installation is a breeze and my first impressions are very good. The UI is a lot better than Parallels! Take a look on the screenshots I took during the installation.
