My uncle's computer got some problems a few days ago. After the prower is on, there is only a black screen. He asked me why.
There are some possible cause:

• Hard disk/CD Rom failure, causing a kind of dead lock of the checking process
• Motherbroad burned down.
• RAM problem
• BIOS problems, maybe there are some kind virus

Finally, the tech guy found that is a RAM problem. After he changed a new set of RAM, all good.

Opensource vs Microsoft?No, No, No. That is Open Source at Microsoft They got their Open Source Software Lab.

P.S. Microsoft is announced Silverlight for Linux

Until this moment, I believe I did more jobs in C# rather than Java (included professional job and other hobby kind things), but I am still a hardcore Java man. Using C#, because Windows is a key OS in the area of general public. This is very hard to persuade my friends installing JRE. In contrast, this is easier to say, "Yeah, let's install .Net, that looks like a plug-in for your OS." That is the major reason I did a lot of things in C#.

For Java, I think more comfortable with Java and my programs can be use my Linux and Windows boxes. Moreover, that is more opensource framework in Java than C#.

P.S. I love Joomla 1.5 so much, that is coding style looks like Java too.

I got a lot of memory usage in FireFox. After I have opened several tabs, the memory usage will raise a lot.

Does anyone face this problem too?

I am finding a RSS for the extension directory joomla. But no luck for this at this moment. Why am I so keen about this RSS? Because I wish to know the latest updates for all Joomla components. Almost all RSS readers will notify the user if there is any new entries in RSS. In this way, keeping update that is so easy instead of visiting their "What's News" page daily. Thus, I think RSS is essential for the kind of "What's News" Component
