Microsoft Gadgets

What are Microsoft Gadgets? Well, according to the web site http://microsoftgadgets.com/:

Gadgets are a new category of mini-application designed to provide information, useful lookup, or enhance an application or service on your Windows PC or the Web

Another example of Microsoft trying to implement something that already exists on the Mac OS and then call it new! Anyway, it will probably just be another way to infect the Windows world with viruses…

Apple Store Luxembourg officially opening soon?

No Gravatar

Apparently, Apple has finally begun accepting orders from private individuals living in Luxembourg. The store is not yet “really” online as the entry URL is for entreprises only. However tracking the package goes through this link http://store.apple.com/Apple/WebObjects/luxstore?type=bizbelfrLUX&qprm=82404&orderStatusSelfService=yes. I have successful ordered and almost received an item (the TNT guy passed here today), so I guess you could say that the store is open.

According to a reader at apple.lu:

je viens de téléphoner au num. du site et ils m’ont dit qu’il n’y a pas de problème pour se faire livrer au Luxembourg, en plus ils m’ont proposer de me faire un cadeau ou une remise si je commande.

In short it is possible to order and receive delivery in Luxembourg, and they even offered the caller a gift or a discount if he would place an order Smile
So use this link to enter. Eventually this one should take you to the Luxembourg front page… Currently it is redirecting to the Belgian Apple page for iPod and iTunes…app
