I've just woke up and read my feeds. Well, this news definitely stands up.

Darn those evil Microsofties! They have indeed created an evil machine (together with their evil OS)! I guess Sony is rejoicing over this...

I have just learned that Microsoft has just released a site in which developers can search examples posted by other users. Which I think can be pretty helpful if your still starting out on a certain language or a feature. But you might be thinking, what about CodePlex? Well, this is entirely different from codeplex, although you can see some bundle of samples in codeplex (SQL Server samples, to name a few), I think codeplex is a place to start a new OpenSource project in which you let your friends or all people participate in. The new Code Gallery was built mainly to have a place in which people can share their sample codes to others.

So far, here are my favorite samples that I found to be useful:

• Generic Class Factory
• StickyNotes
• WPF Samples
• Linq to SQL join example

I'm not an Apple Fanboy or anywhere close to that. But I was just so impressed with their engineers there at Cupertino! How the hell did they design the MacBook Air? I was just utterly speechless when I saw Steve Jobs showed it on MacWorld. Though I myself ain't gonna buy it (I'm a developer, and all of my clients are using the Microsoft Platform) but it didn't fail to amaze me.

See the pics to have an idea on how thin it really is. I really loved it when they placed it on a Manila Envelope (yep they call it Manila envelope even in the US). Though it lacks many features found in the laptop nowadays, you can't just ignore the fact that it's savvy and did I mention thin?
