Black Friday is almost here! Gadgetell's got you covered with all the latest news on who's offering the best deals. Dangerous crowds? You're on your own.
Palm Pre Information & Updates
Palm just introduced their next-gen smartphone, the Palm Pre, and next-gen operating system, Palm webOS. Gadgetell's got the latest Pre and webOS information and news for you right here.
Apple just rolled out their new version of OS X and Windows 7 is just around the corner. If you are feeling OS curious, you should definitely check out this promotion by VMWare. Right now through September 10th, 2009 you can get VMware Workstation 6.5 at $113.40 instead of the usual price of $189.00. If you’re on the Mac, VMware Fusion is also available at a discount for $47.99 instead of $79.99. To get this discount, you must buy from the VMware store and enter the promo code: “DESKTOPSALE” (no quote marks). Remember, this promotion ends on September 10th.
If you are unfamiliar with VMware, they make products that allow you to create virtual machines on your computer. So if you’ve got a Windows machine, you can create another machine virtually within Windows. You could test out Linux or other versions of Windows on one machine.
Additionally, if you have a Mac, you can run Windows from within OS X without having to use Boot Camp. While there are free options out there to get virtual machines running on your computer, from my experience VMware products are easy to set up and there is a lot of support for varying operating systems without much hassle.
