Microsoft launching Windows Live updates
If you've been keeping track, you probably know that Microsoft has already released beta versions of most of these applications, and a nice little unified installer app that lets you install a bunch of Microsoft services all at once, if that's the kind of thing you're inclined to do. We'd like to think that each service will work a bit more reliably once they emerge from beta, but having spent the last few months with Windows Vista, we've learned to temper our hopes.

So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place.

Windows Live Mail is hands down THE BEST mail client outside of Outlook... period.

The last sentence on the post was a rather turn-down. I kind of agree with Jason, the thing where you guys really pay little attention to what Microsoft is doing.

Gotta agree with Jason (and not just because we share the same name!!), sorry DownloadSquad but these shots at Microsoft are becoming a little too often and it's starting to get a little unprofessional.
