New line of clothes are T-shirt dresses, halter-necked tops in happy, sunny colors, shirt-and-T combos as well as all the statement accessories.

Megaphone and Pets

Sinofsky showed IE9 to attendees, an early build, and explaining that this version of the browser will focus on support for new standards like HTML5 and CSS3, as well as developing a faster JavaScript rendering engine.

According to Sinofsky, IE9 will adhere more to newer standards alongside their own standard. IE9 will make use of DirectX-based hardware accelerated graphics and text. To prove the point, Sinofsky showed that IE8 can render Bing maps at 14 frames per second. With hardware acceleration in IE9 turned on, he got 60 frames per second.

To those coming to the biggest gaming event in the Philippines, See you Nov. 7 and 8!

There are currently 2 DirectX versions in the market: DX9 (compatible with XP and Vista) and DX10 (used only by Vista).

Most games developed today are built using DirectX 9 dahil unang-una, matagal tayong minahal ng Windows XP. Pangalawa, konting gamers lang nagmamahal kay vista kaya ang mga developer eh napilitan pa ring gumamit ng DX9.

Then there are some games built using DirectX 10 but they still have DirectX 9 compatibility like Crysis. In fact mas mabilis pa nga ang DX9 version ng Crisys kaysa sa DX10 kaya konti lang ang mga games na ginawa gamit ito.

And now that Windows 7 is around the corner, we now have DirectX 11 API. Isa na namang pasakit sa mga game developer at pambutas ng bulsa sa ating mga gamer.

There are 4 major games announced that will support DirectX 11. They are Stalker, Dirt 2, Aliens versus Predator and Battleforge.

For us to use DX11 games that will arrive soon, we first need to have, of course, Windows 7 operating system. Windows 7 will cost around 7,000 pesos mga kapatid kaya be a good boy and girl na sa mga parents. Pakabait din tayo kay ninong at ninang lalo na at papalapit ang pasko.

For gamers who are into Vista na, you are lucky kasi Microsoft will release DX11 soon for Vista. It will arrive anytime soon after Windows 7 is launched. Sad though for XP users since stuck kayo sa DX9 for the rest of your gaming life kaya you should start considering upgrading your OS to vista or much better to 7.

Now that you have a proper operating system, ito na naman panibagong pambutas ng bulsa… you will need a new and shiny video card that supports DirectX 11.

As of this writing, only ATI supports DirectX 11 through their Radeon 5000 series products. Nvidia will follow soon, maybe next year with Fermi based GPUs.

ATI currently has Radeon 5870 – the fastest and most expensive single GPU card on the market, 5850, 5770 and 5750.

Those new video cards will cost you an arm and leg to acquire. Syempre walang problema kung mabait si mommy and daddy hahaha. For those quite unfortunate gamers, pagbutihin nyo ang pag-aaral and hopefully matuwa sa atin parents natin at bigyan tayo ng reward nyahahhaa.

So here’s my recap, DirectX 11 technology is arriving. It is the next big thing for us adek gamers. To enjoy this wonderful grace from the generous Steve Ballmer (sya po ang leader ng Microsoft ngayon), we have to purchase a new operating system such as Vista or Windows 7. We will also need a new video card. Buy only ATI Radeon 5000 series cards since the old 4000 series cards only supports DirectX 10.1. Same with Nvidias old and current products.

Microsoft Philippines has announced an official Windows 7 Launch celebration to welcome the grand arrival of Microsoft’s next flagship operating system – Windows 7. According to MS Philippines Windows 7 site, Windows 7 Celebration will be held at the new Cyberzone SM North EDSA on November 7.

Mark these days, folks – November 7 and 8, 2009!

Be at the SM North EDSA Cyberzone on those days and witness the Windows 7 big launch! We’ll have games and prizes, celebrities, demos and freebies! We’re giving away lots of goodies. Everyone gets a chance to bring home gadgets, goodies, maybe even laptops!

Windows 7 is the next version of the Windows client operating system. This version incorporates hundreds of improvements based on the feedbacks they got from its client. I believe though that most of that feedback came from disgruntled Vista owner hehe. Now Microsoft wanted to put the failure of Vista behind their back and start with new shiny OS in the form of Seven.

If everything goes smooth, Mass Effect 2 will arrive on January 26th in North America followed by European release on January 29th.
