Recently I was asked to review TrainSignal’s “Exchange Server 2010 Training” DVD which aims to give you exact details on how to setup and maintain your own exchange server in the form of video tutorials to help you watch exactly how you do each step. Let’s take a look at it in more detail.

It includes 3 DVD’s with 40 video lessons on, giving you over 20 hours of content to watch. This is a huge amount of videos that will take you quite a while to watch but when you have seen all of the tutorials offered, you should be very confident about how to install it and how to configure it to suit your particular needs. It starts off with the basics telling you the different features of the new exchange server 2010 software and lets you know the requirements needed to install it. After that, it starts to move onto the more complex operations of an exchange server and explains, for example, how to setup SSL certificates and create recipient types. There is a video tutorial for every different feature you may need.

The amount of content on the disks is fantastic, but what about the content on the disks? The instructor on the DVD’s, J. Peter Bruzzesse, commentates exactly what is happening while you watch what he’s doing. Another good feature is that you can learn all about exchange server on the go as it comes with MP3 file versions of the lessons letting you listen to them on your iPod and also comes with PDF files if you prefer just to read about it. No matter where you are, you should still be able to learn about it so you’re ready when you want to setup your own version of exchange server 2010.

The only possible downside that I can think of is that it didn’t work so well on my Mac. I couldn’t get the videos to play due to the menu being a Windows file. However, everything played fine when I tried it on my Windows computer. Just something to bare in mind, although I’m sure that TrainSignal will fix this to allow Mac users to watch the video tutorials too at some point in time.

In conclusion, if you’re looking for a great way to learn how to use exchange server 2010, this set of DVD’s is definitely worth it. After watching, you’ll know exactly what to do and won’t need any other help or guide. The price could be considered relatively high but for the amount of resources and the sheer knowledge this product will give you, this shouldn’t put you off buying it. If you’re interested, you can find it at Exchange Server 2010 Training.

With a huge market share, it is obvious that Apple’s iPhone just keeps on getting more and more popular. This article will look at their latest model in the range released a couple of months ago, entitled the iPhone 4.

Let’s take a look at some of the improvements made on the iphone. First of all, the video quality has drastically increased. You can now actually record video in full HD quality, which is great if you enjoy recording video and then replaying it on your computer or maybe putting it on YouTube.

Second of all, the announcement of Apple’s FaceTime is another great addition. This technology allows you to have free video calling from your phone by using a WiFi connection. The only downside is that both users have to be using an iPhone 4 and both users have to be connected to WiFi at the time. If it supported 3G connection, this would probably be more useful.

Thirdly, the display has also increased. The resolution has now doubled, giving you a much crisper screen and you can definitely tell the difference by comparing the new iPhone 4 with an old iPhone 3G or iPhone 3GS. Both text and images look better and it makes browsing the internet a lot better experience for the user.

However, the big question is, is the iPhone 4 really worth the huge costs? In the United Kingdom, to buy this phone without a contract, a 16GB model costs a staggering £499 with the 32GB model costing £599. This is much higher than most other competitors which makes it quite difficult to choose to buy this new phone, especially since the price of the iPhone 4 is higher than the old cost of the 3GS. I’m not quite sure why Apple did this but it was a very bad decision.

In my opinion, I wouldn’t pay this amount for a phone, simply because it is just a phone after all. Apple can add as many features as they want but I don’t believe people should have to pay £500 for a phone. On the other hand, the phone is still of a great quality. If I really wanted one, I could easily get a free iphone 4 with not much work.

Most users were expecting Apple to call their new tablet PC the iTablet. They chose not to, and now the British company X2 Computing has decided to pick up on that and make a rival product – The iTablet.

In terms of specifications, the iTablet does seem more powerful than Apple’s iPad. Due for an April release, the iTablet is going to run on Windows 7 and even has a 1.3 megapixel camera built in to enable video chatting. Another advantage over the iPad.

One of the biggest problems with the iPad is the lack of Adobe Flash support, which can be difficult if you’re trying to view websites with flash content on. Luckily, X2 Computing have managed to bring flash support into their iTablet, which is a great feature to have. Just think, you could be travelling and playing on online games websites at the same time!

The screen size of the iTablet ranges between 10.2 inches and 12.1 inches, bigger than the iPad, and claims to have multitouch, Wi-Fi, bluetooth as well as optional 3G networking. You even get a huge hard drive too – Ranging up to 250GB of space, compared to the much-smaller 64GB offered by Apple’s iPad.

Another interesting feature is that you can run programs simultaneously. With the iPad, you can only run one task at a time because of the operating system used (Which is also on the iPhone). This can make it quite difficult if you want to, for example, read your e-mails and browse the internet.

In conclusion, X2 Computing have certainly done a great deal of work to rival Apple. They’ve managed to fix every weakness that was identified with the iPad and made it much better. Everything about the specifications are much better and quicker, and running on a decent operating system like Windows 7 too, what could go wrong?
