The Windows 7 sales have exceeded that of Vista by 234% and it is quite interesting to watch the sales rate going higher. Even with the post economic flux there is significant growth within a few short weeks of the release of Windows 7.

This is quite an outstanding result considering that it has out shone the release of Harry Potter second last film. The NPD Group’s weekly tracking service have come up with new sales pitching and combination of facts that have been impaired with some of the more significant tracking services with the Windows 7 software feature.

The trajectory of PC sales have overall leaned more towards outstanding release as well as great holiday season invocation. Stephen Baker of NPD has commented on how the growing enthusiasm from people about the Windows 7 and the appreciated results has totally propelled its sales into a large scale degree.

It was unbelievable for some and some were even reckoning it impossible, but now it’s not a far off thing if those rumors are true that suggest BlackBerry OS would soon land on Windows Mobile.

The pictures have appeared on BerryReview and according to some they are quite genuine without an iota of doubt.  They showed a HTC handset working on the system with the BlackBerry Application Suite that was due in 07.

The BAS is an impressive and somewhat a fictional idea for brining the Blackberry OS on Windows Mobile for devices on Windows Mobile 6.

This would provide much better solution than you might have seen with BlackBerry Connect for getting your email on other device. With BlackBerry Application Suite you can also connect your handset with an isolated APN and get good support for real-time connections.

But some cons are there as well because your exact position can’t be pinpointed with the BB Maps software.

Still there is some hope if you are willing to lump with a Windows Mobile on BlackBerry.

Many of us know that Windows/DOS, MAC and UNIX all have their different file systems and metadata formats because of their competing influences and over 40 years in computer hardware and software developments, it becomes quite difficult to define an accurate outline of the function and nature of file extensions.

In 1960, the first company that implemented file extensions was Digital Equipment Corporation, as it introduced a file system that broke it within the base name of the file extensions. Then after some time, the same convention was adopted by the Microsoft for its DOS as well as Windows operating system.

Microsoft first originally restricted the base name as to eight characters and the extension of the file to following three characters that made it the combination of 8 letter name with a 3 letter.

Before Windows 95, file extension was restrictive to a great extent and it was in Windows 95 and future versions when longer filenames were allowed.

On the other hand, file extension wasn’t used by UNIX and Mac; they both had developed their own file systems with different convention for storing metadata. The codes contained within the file were used in Mac OSX while in UNIX systems information was stored in a single.

But many believe that the popularity of Windows became the cause of developing the file extension that was counted the typical method of showing a file’s function. These days, Mac OXS is also utilizing file extensions.

Microsoft’s Scott Guthrie says in this connection that Apple is contrarily ready to facilitate plug-ins such as Flash and Silverlight.

“We are keen to be able to run Silverlight on the iPhone, but still whatever software is run on the iPhone is ultimately controlled by Apple.” Guthrie says.

“Now, whatever they have said is that they are considering enabling browser plug-ins such as Flash or Silverlight to run on the phone.”

On the other hand, Silverlight on Andriod is looking more promising as it’s an open source OS that has been developed by many companies including Google.

T-mobile’s G1 Android, which is the first Android phone, has huge pre-orders and Microsoft will surely consider this platform.

According to Guthrie, “Google phone is somewhat different and it’s for an open platform that we are looking at.”

Usually, we have to face some difficulties whenever we try to find an accurate and proper definition of file extension. The things that prove a hurdle in this way are those developments and influences that have been occurring during the past 40 years in the world of computer sciences. Different operating systems such as Windows, DOS, Mac and Linx had different metadata formats and file extension systems for their programs that was the biggest hurdle in this way.

Digital Equipment Corporation was the first company in this field that implemented file extension system as early as in 1960. They developed a procedure to express the file system by making a break within the name of the file extensions.

After quite some time, the same procedure was used in DOS and Windows operating systems by the Microsoft. Microsoft expressed file extension by separating base name with a full stop.
