Windows Audit Software

Just letting people know two nice pieces of software for free:

Winaudit from : WinAudit

WinAudit is a software programme that audits Windows® based personal computers. Just about every aspect of computer inventory is examined. The report is displayed as a web page, which can be saved in a number of standard formats. You can e-mail it to your technical support or even post the audit to a database for archiving. When used in conjunction with its command line functionality, you can automate inventory administration at the network level. WinAudit supports the remote desktop and pre-installation environments.


MS Audit from : Microsoft
Microsoft Software Inventory Analyzer

You can use the MSIA to scan and inventory the Microsoft software that is installed on a single computer, or on multiple computers throughout a network. It generates a report that provides details of all installed Microsoft products, including the type and the number of licenses. The MSIA will work with networks that have 250 or fewer computers. The latest MSIA 5.1 features enable you to:

Identify and report all installed Microsoft products listed under Add or Remove Programs.

Consolidate the MSIA report with the Microsoft Licensing Statement (MLS) report (.xls only).

Project Natal (for XBOX 360)

Microsoft finally took the wraps off the that rumored motion controller we'd been hearing about. Apparently the small, black device -- codenamed "Natal" -- will allow for an astoundingly wide range of actions by utilizing a group of sensors. The demo Microsoft showed off included a skateboarding game and a family playing a racing game.

The add-on will offer features such as auto sign-in for players to Xbox Live (based on complex facial recognition), and sports extremely detailed body tracking which will be able to follow the individual movements of separate limbs. A title was shown off which featured a woman interacting with a young boy on the screen (one of the company's creepier demos in recent memory.) Unfortunately for us. Everyone is still waiting for a release date from Microsoft.

Presentation Software

Bored the powerpoint?

Here is a better presentation software (better then PowerPoint), that even Microsoft uses it.

Of the Express Version is FREE and will do everything that powerpoint does


here is a section from their website:

It is the perfect solution for presentations given in a business or event surrounding, where every aspect, from location over decoration to catering, has been arranged by specialists. In a setting like this, you need a presentation that can impress your audience beyond their expectations.

At the same time your presentation needs to be flexible enough to be adapted to changes up to the last minute before the event.

Ventuz is the perfect combination of these two aspects: impressive 3D looks and a real-time environment.
