Very expensive, but includes a monitor, keyboard and wireless mouse. It would be on sale from 27 November with Windows 7 Home Premium pre-installed and will surely be able to choose any of the Linux distributions and yes, Dell supports Windows XP.

Although the current configuration tab Zino HD is not available on the Dell website, still different configurations and prices of this little computer for the living room as multimedia computer (HTPC) or a compact PC have been published. The Zino HD will be more like Apple’s Mac mini that will be found in the market.

Good download manager for Rapidshare, Megaupload and others

Posted: 09 Nov 2009 04:57 AM PST

There are many people like me who love to download loads of matter from file hosts like Rapidshare, Megaupload, etc. No matter downloading is a fun there but it can be real mess while downloading multiple files and filling captcha again and again.

Even if you don’t like, you have to face them because many a times file you wanted in served there. Although, I use programs like jDownloader but here is another lightweight application called Mipony to download files from Rapidshare, Megaupload, Hotfile, Mediafire, Megaporn, filefactory, Gigasize, Easyshare, etc. Almost all popular hosts are supported so no need to worry.

Mipony is another file downloader which bypasses filling captchas, allows to download files in queue or multiple files from various servers at a time. What more included in this software is an integrated web browser with Link Detection feature; with which you can add a list of files in download queue. It works with both Free and Premium download account.
