This week, we start with a new regular occurence on OSNews: the imaginatively named Week in Review, where we do a quick rundown of the preceding week's most important news, and maybe add in a few new items that didn't make the cut earlier in the week. We will close off each of them with My Take, a short random musing about whatever subject we please. This week, the news was dominated by MacWorld, Windows 7, and Palm.

Great summary of a very busy week for tech news; thanks. I would not normally post to say just that (and that IMHO Apple is either spreading itself very thinly, or losing interest in the Mac; though the stuff demonstrated in the keynote was pretty impressive, it wasn't what was anticipated) but given your excellent review of what Roxette was all about I felt compelled to write. I remember listening to Roxette and playing on the new-fangled N64 "back in the day" and you're right -- they had a great style and I miss them -- and will definitely check out Alphabeat.
I do think that Roxette did some very good "grown-up" songs -- including C.B.B. of course but also (the original) It Must Have Been Love, The Rain and the sublime Here Comes the Weekend. It's their upbeat and incredibly catchy hooks mixed with fantastic middle 8s that always manage to lift one's spirits, though, eh!
