November 2009 issue of PC User – what’s coming up?
If you can’t wait to find out what’s coming in next month’s issue, here’s a sneak peak.
I’ve just spent the last week looking at digital video cameras and you’ll be surprised at what’s happened in the last 12 months, not just in terms of features but certainly in pricing. We take a look at everything from budget cheapies right through to $2000 cameras that produce amazingly sharp and clear high-definition (HD) video.
Like most other publications, we’ve also been giving the new Windows 7 a spin – well, quite a bit more than that, really. We’ve been playing with the final RTM code for the last month or so. We’ll give you our verdict of the new Microsoft operating system but also tell you how it compares to Vista and XP in terms of performance.
It’s also our big video issue where I take a look at all things video from content to encoding to ripping and burning. We’ve got exclusive software and video tutorials on the cover disc as well. So it should be another good read.
The November 2009 issue of PC User goes on sale Wednesday, October 7.

PC User Audio Toolkit – September 2010 issue – new update
about 1 week ago - No comments
New Update 317 hopefully gets around some pesky “nilobjectexception” errors.

And just as an aside, this should be the last app that gets

Q&A – How do I turn Windows Aero off?
about 5 months ago - No comments
A. The simplest way in Windows 7 is to go the desktop, right-click and choose Personalise from the context menu.
Then from the list of themes, just choose “Windows 7 Basic”. This will force Windows 7 to switch off the extra features with Aero being switched off in the process.
Why would you want to turn off
Q&A – Does Windows 7 support USB3.0?
