Guys, I hope Sir Abe would start thinking of adding facebook-connect to his comment section just like GSMArena did. Lessens hate comments…

See: http://www.gsmarena.com/newscomm-2272p2.php

This is the real Jhay, to all those whom have been offended by the poser using my credentials (my ID, email and blog URI) please visit my blog and use the contact form to get send me an email and I assure you I will sort this out with you and clear my name.

If you would all recall, I’ve been a long-time fan and reader of this blog, and you would see that there is not a single comment I have posted where I stooped to the low level of the poser and used foul language on my fellow readers here on Yugatech.

To typical filipino computer user, Cedd, Kevlar and all the readers of Yugatech, I am deeply sorry for the offense and trouble the poser has caused you.

I assure to each and everyone of you, I am the real Jhay. One clue that I’m the real one is by looking at the My BlogLog widget on the sidebar. You would notice that my avatar is not listed as amongst the Recent Visitors. Why so? It’s been more than six months since I logged in to My BlogLog account. I’m no longer using the widget on my blog.

Since the poser pretending to be me doesn’t know the login credentials for My BlogLog account, my avatar is not listed in the recent visitors widget.

Since the ID, email and blog URI I use to post comments on blogs are publicly available via a Google search, it then was easy for the poser to use them and make it appear that I have suddenly become stupid and used foul words in the comments just to insult my fellow readers here on Yugatech.

To further prove that a someone is impersonating me and leaving nasty, offending and uncalled for comments here on Yugatech, I will blog about this on my own blog for all to read.

If the said post is not published on my blog within 24 hours of this comment’s posting then this comment can be treated as posted by the poser. But since I am guaranteeing that the said post will be published within 24 hours then this will prove that I am and without a doubt the real Jhay.

Thank you for understanding and again, I offer my sincerest apologies for all those who got involved in this mess.

Bago ka magmarunong alamin mo muna kung tama ka sa sinasabi mo

@Pirated Win-7 Users
Pede kayo magupdate normally sa Automatic Updates sa Update Center, ganun ginawa ko at 64-bit Win7 Ultimate at Pirated ang gamit ko. Gumagana legit updates ng Windows kahet sa Pirated(pero di nga lang ako pala-update masayang lang kasi sa space :P)

@ Yuga: Please delete my previous comment. I swear to God that I did not post that comment. I have never even visited this post until now, just read it in Google Reader.

That’s why I was surprised that I received email notices about more comments posted when I never really visited this post, posted a comment nor subscribed to this entry.

To my fellow readers and commenters, I deeply apologize for this. Someone has used my credentials to post that unnecessary and improper comment.

Sorry for the reply mate, Daz and Hazr are two different loaders…Currently I prefer Daz it has more option…

@typical computer user:
If so happened that your validator is removeWAT, you will get caught if your copy is not legit. The reason for this is that removeWAT (literally) remove the WAT and Windows 7 SP1 will install the missing WAT.

Another work around is, install via Windows update, good news if you use DAZ or HAZR uploader as activator, the SP1 installation has no issue with missing WAT….

P.S

@cedd…..I hope you’re just kidding with that question?!?!

You can’t update XP with Windows 7 SP1 (or any forthcoming update). With XP (ancient, outdated but still useful), the latest update is XP SP3. If O.S. migration is in your stars now or in the near future, the only way to upgrade is to ditch XP and buy Windows 7 (Home premium is the optimal upgrade for home users and you can purchase either the retail version or the OEM version – difference? OEM is cheaper than the retail SKU). Windows 7 is very stable and is selling quite well (at least 300 million licenses sold since launch).

If not, well……Windows 8 is due sometime in 2012.

To the people who are asking for the improvement?
Well haven’t notice some..but I do notice some bad things. I used a lot of side “gadgets” (Windows Gadget on the Side bar to be exact). after installing the update, it become slow. What I mean is, upon boot up it takes 25sec from 10sec before. I don’t know why..haven’t try reinstalling the gadgets yet. I want to preserve the data with it. so don’t want to close or uninstall it.

@typical computer user,

SP1 will install the KB791033 aka WAT so if your copy is not legit you will get caught, although there is a work around.

One added bonus is the mobile version of the update will brick Samsung win 7 smartphones. So if you or anyone you know happen to own one, do not download and install in your Samsung smartphones

I just wanted to share this information I read from another website since most of us are asking – “What’s new in Windows 7 Service Pack 1?”

——————————
What’s New in Windows 7 Service Pack 1
Dynamic memory, RemoteFX and a handful of small fixes round out the changes Microsoft has in store for Windows 7 Service Pack 1.

“…Unlike Windows Vista, which left users pandering for a service pack right out of the gate, many Windows 7 users wonder what updates their reasonably well-behaved OS could possible need. Do you really to update?

In short, no.

Microsoft has made it very clear, at this point, that the changes made with Service Pack 1 are mainly of interest to IT professionals and developers…”

Already downloaded the SP1 a while ago and some improvements where noticed. Before booting on the screen took me around 10 seconds but now it reduced to 5 to 7 seconds… (Depends on the hardware specs). As well as the system properties already indicated Service Pack 1 under your Windows 7 version, SP1 is the collective updates previously installed and some reliability updates.

I will create system image or backup after this update so that when something goes wrong beyond, you dont need to reformat the whole disk, just revert it back to system restore point when SP1 successfully installed.
