Find Other Web Sites Hosted on a Web Server

A reverse IP domain check takes the domain name or IP address of a web server and searches for other sites known to be hosted on that same web server. Data is gathered from search engine results, which are not guaranteed to be complete. Knowing the other web sites hosted on a web server is important from both an SEO and web filtering perspective, particularly for those on shared web hosting plans.

Microsoft Q2 Earnings Summary

After trading hours on Thursday (Jan. 24), Microsoft announced its second quarter earnings and "guidance" for the next business quarter, and estimated earnings for the year.

Earnings were 16.37 Billion dollars* for October through December (Q2 on MSFT's fiscal year calendar); this versus a "consensus estimate" by "the street" of 15.95 Billion dollars.

* USD $ 16,370,000,000.00

Actual (net) profit was 4.71 Billion dollars, which means that it somehow cost 11.66 Billion (that's with a capital "B", now) to run the company.

Depending on how they do the accounting, of course... For example, through the magic of numbers, second-quarter revenue and profit growth rates are exaggerated when compared to results a year ago. Why? Because Microsoft "deferred" more than $1 billion in net income, based on delays in releasing Windows Vista and Office 2007.

Total sales of the Vista operating system (not 3-month sales) were reported as being over 100 million copies.

For comparison, that's equivalent to a copy of Vista for every man, woman and child in California [36.4 million], Oregon [3.7 million], Washington state [6.4 million], Arizona [6.1 million], Nevada [2.5 million], Idaho [1.4 million], Wyoming [0.5 million], Montana [0.9 million], North Dakota [0.6 million], South Dakota [0.7 million], Utah [2.5 million], Colorado [4.8 million], New Mexico [1.9 million], Texas [23.5 million], Oklahoma [3.6 million], and Louisiana [4.3 million]*.

* estimates based on 2006 U.S. Census Beureau numbers.

Or, if you prefer another number to use to put the number 100 million in context:
the July 2007 population estimate for the United Kingdom is 60.7 million. Japan: 127 million. Germany: 82.4 million.

Microsoft representatives also said that Microsoft has shipped 17.7 million 'Xbox 360' consoles since the machine went on sale two years ago (November 22, 2005).

Full Year revenue was estimated on the "conference call" to be between 59.9 to 60.5 Billion dollars by the end of the current fiscal year.

Microsoft said profit in the year ending June 30 will be $1.85 to $1.88 a share, on sales of $59.9 billion to $60.5 billion.

Confirmed: you CAN run Windows 95 on Virtual PC!

(last: Jan. 2008); See also About Vista's Windows Experience Index

So TurtleTracks and I were talking about problems inherent in running old games made for Windows 95/98 on current Windows operating systems (e.g. the limitations of 'compatibility mode' ... and it occured to me that I had only been thinking about [VMWare] and [Virtual PC] in terms of hosting [Vista] on your XP O/S, or vice versa.

What about hosting [Win 95] or [DOS] on your current Windows O/S, and running the games that way?

So, here's what I found from MicroSoft's websites:


From http://support.microsoft.com/kb/831461/en-us (as of Jan. 19, 2008*):

You can use the following operating systems as a "guest operating system" in
a guest PC [do they mean 'on a host PC'? - Editor]:
• MS-DOS 6.22
• Windows 95
• Windows 95 OEM Service Release 2
• Windows 98
• Windows 98 Second Edition
• Windows Millennium Edition (Windows Me)
• Windows NT Workstation 4.0
• Windows 2000 Professional
• Windows XP Home Edition
• Windows XP Professional Edition
• OS/2 Warp 4 Fixpack 15
• OS/2 Warp Convenience Pack 1
• OS/2 Warp Convenience Pack 2

APPLIES TO
• Microsoft Virtual PC 2004
• Connectix Virtual PC for Windows 5.2

[Note that it doesn't list Virtual PC 2007]

Article ID : 831461
Last Review : May 9, 2007
Revision : 3.4

See also:
"How to Install the PC DOS 2000 Guest Operating System That Is Included with Virtual PC"
"Microsoft Virtual PC for Mac Version 7.0.2 (Update)"

Update:
Okay, the list of "guest" operating systems for [Virtual PC 2007] was cryptically hidden under the button "Product Specifications":
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/virtualpc/overview.mspx?wt_svl=20323a&mg_id=20323b

According to this page, with the "2007" version:

1. You have to be running XP Professional, XP Tablet Edition, or Vista (no [XP Home] support)
2. The earliest you'll now be able to run are [Windows 98], [Windows 98 Second Edition], [Windows Millennium Edition (Windows Me)], or [Windows 2000 Professional].
   :-(

BUT, the page also mysteriously states (emphasis mine): "Virtual PC can run most [? could you be more vague, please? -Editor] x86 operating systems, not just the operating systems listed below, in a virtual machine environment."

On a side note, the "FAQ" states, for the question "Why are you making Virtual PC free for everyone?":

"Microsoft is investing strongly in virtualization technology for hardware and applications across client and servers. The value in virtualization technology moving forward will be in the management and the operating system rather than in the virtualization stack."

What do you want to bet the real answer is "To distract you from the other offerings that let you run other operating systems like Linux (because we're afraid you might like those other operating systems more if you tried them)." Plus, of course, you have to buy each one of those 'Virtual PC' operating systems from Microsoft...

Links:

• Virtual PC 2007 Home Page {http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/virtualpc/default.mspx}
• "You must have a validly licensed copy of Microsoft Virtual PC 2004 installed on your computer in order to install Service Pack 1 for [Virtual PC 2004]." - from the Service Pack 1 download page.

BitPim, a CDMA phone organizer

[Submitted by affiliate19]

So, I have an LG VX-8300 that I'm waiting to trade in (on contract credit) for an actual smartphone.
It's going to be a while, so I finally decided to try to use more of the features on this phone in the meantime. I started looking for a free app to help me do it. Specifically, I wanted to transfer my MP3s to the phone for use as both regular listening files, and as ringtones. I was also looking for a better way to edit my
contact info and calendar alerts.

After some googlin', I came across this program:

>link> BitPim.

Open Source free software under the GNU General Public License (aka
GPL). I've found it to be extremely intuitive to use and stable to boot!
Thought I'd pass it along in case anyone was looking for something similar.

I Sure Stumble on Some Random S&*t...

How's this for random:

(1) So I'm searching on 型幽霊 (don't ask).

(2) I somehow arrive (many clicks later) at the following post at some website titled "Portal of Evil":

A database of peculiar (sort of) English phrases. Just pick a mandatory article and type in a word of your choice, and the eyebrow raising will begin.

(3) After following the link, I do a search, and discover the current URL is
http://epc.hp.infoseek.co.jp/what.html ...

(4) I try "Ghost" (http://epc.hp.infoseek.co.jp/cgi-bin/what.cgi) >
Results:

1 : Can't I get your ghost, Bob?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2 : If it is a ghost story you wish...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3 : What I realize now is - I can't live the rest of my life being a ghost.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4 : What's going on is that we're getting the fuck off this ghost ship.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5 : What's happening here is we're getting the fuck off this ghost ship, okay?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6 : Who are his ghosts?
