To those people whose computers are running on a pirated copy of Microsoft’s Windows operating system, be warned.
From yesterday onwards, your computer will be ‘tattooed’ by random pop-ups with the message "This copy of Windows is not genuine..". This warning will also be displayed whenever a user tries to log into Windows. For such users, the only way to get rid of the ‘tattoos’ will be to install a genuine copy of Windows. This is part of Microsoft’s anti-piracy move that is being launched simultaneously in 5 countries - the United States, Britain, New Zealand, Australia and (no suprise here) Malaysia.
Machines affected by the tatoos will still be able to receive software updates for the operating system, but will not be allowed to download Internet Explorer 7 (IE7) and Windows Defender
People claim that in times of momentous significance, time slows down. In fact it speeds up. History will record that in the 89th minute John fired goalwards.Mr-X touch the ball on to the post, it bounced across the line onto the other post and out, only for Govin to pounce on the rebound and force it in. But in the time it took for that to happen, all Suspects FC fans could feel was sphincter-tightening fear, slight confusion, then a horrible, empty feeling as the ball pinged around the goalmouth before finally settling in the net.
After fighting for his country in Mangal Pandey, Aamir Khan is all set to star in Rakeysh Mehra’s film Rang De Basanti as a Delhi University student. During the shoot, everyone thought that this was another period drama from Aamir Khan mainly because of it’s title and the Mangal Pandey hangover. But that isn’t true.
So what exactly is the film about?
A young idealistic English Film-maker Sue (Alice Patten) comes to India to make a documentary drama on Bhagat Singh and his contemporaries during the freedom struggle. After failing to gather funds for the film, she decides to recruit student from the Delhi University.
She finds DJ (Aamir Khan), an ex-student who passed out five years back but still wants to be a part of the University because he doesn’t think there’s too much out there in the world out there to look forward to. Aslam (Kunal Kapoor) is a middle class Muslim boy who lives in the bylanes near Jama Masjid and is poet, philosopher and guide to his friends. Sukhi (Sharman Joshi) is the group’s baby, vulnerable and has a weakness for only women. Laxman Pandey (Atul Kulkarni) is the fundamentalist in the group and Sonia (Soha Ali Khan) who is a tomboy and vivacious is engaged to Ajay (Madhavan) - a pilot. Sue’s film makes DJ and his friends stop and stare at themselves for being the actual descendants of these great men and never recognizing and celebrating their courage and spirit. That is where the story of Rang De Basanti begins…
