Windows 7 as Windows 8 - [Customize]

By Administrator
Windows 7 as Windows 8 - [Customize]

The first thing we notice about the Windows 8 system is its appearance and unusual interface - Metro style.

Metro-style is one new UI is completely different from all previous windows. It features large fields where you can store applications, shortcuts, images, gadgets, etc. This UI is customized for Tablet PCs but there is one program made for Windows 7 systems that you can install on a regular PC and have a real Metro Style UI.

That program is called Mosaic and is intended for users of the Week who want to "get acquainted" with the Metro Style interface.

You can download the program from THIS link. At the bottom of the page is a link to download the program itself, and above are the "Widgets". Packed in a ZIP archive no installation is required, it is launched by double-clicking on the .exe icon.

Note: You must have the .NET Framework 4.0 installed to run the program

Ok, if you have started the program, on the right side of the screen you will see the Menu where you add gadgets, icons, pictures, etc.

As soon as you start the program, some gadgets will appear on your desktop that you can remove or change.

Update: In the new version, the program runs in full screen so you will only see the Metro UI, without the Start bar or icons. And you can change that in the settings.

If you want to add an animated background, see the instructions  HERE.

The difference between Sleep, Hibernate and Hybrid sleep options

By Administrator
What is the difference between regular Sleep mode and Hybrid sleep mode? And what is Hibernate ? I will try to explain in the simplest way possible so that everyone understands nicely. 1. Sleep When you select Sleep mode , all components of the computer except RAM are shut down to store data. So, if you do something on the computer and press Sleep, the computer shuts down and everything you did (left open windows, documents, etc.) is stored in RAM.

What is GLONASS?

By Administrator
If you've looked at the detailed specification of an Android or GPS device, you may have seen another term next to the GPS tag and didn't know exactly what it represents. Well,  GLONASS is a global navigation system that was started by the USSR in 1976, so this project could be taken over by Russia after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
