Week in Review: More Netbooks, Windows 7, Obama

Linked by Thom Holwerda on Sun 25th Jan 2009 18:12 UTC

This week wasn't marked by any breaking news items, but there were a few tends to be spotted. This may be have been a new week, but netbooks were still all the rage, with several items on our front page. We also had lots of news on Windows 7, and OSNews' very first game review. An uneventful week, but some interesting discussion nonetheless. This week's My Take is about the upcoming KDE 4.2 release.

Over the years I've seen tons of people misspell "complement" as "compliment". This is the first time I saw someone do the reverse.

Tsk. What a lousy excuse. The spelling differences are exactly the same in Dutch, while the difference in pronunciation are much greater.
