performance, which we’ve seen dropping the cost
of hosting cloud services at Microsoft. .NET 6 is the
first release that natively supports Apple Silicon (Arm64)
and has also been improved for Windows Arm64.

Avoid
Gmail addresses for component order |
Some
file types are blocked by Gmail:
As a security measure to prevent potential viruses,
Gmail doesn't allow you to send or receive executable
files (such as files ending in .exe) that could contain
damaging executable code. In addition, Gmail does not
allow you to send or receive files that are corrupted.
Which file types can I not send or receive?
"ade",
"adp", "bat", "chm", "cmd",
"com", "cpl", "exe",
"hta", "ins", "isp", "jse",
"lib", "mde", "msc", "msp",
"mst", "pif", "scr", "sct",
"shb", "sys", "vb", "vbe",
"vbs", "vxd", "wsc", "wsf",
"wsh"
Gmail won't
accept these types of files even if they are sent in
a zipped (.zip, .tar, .tgz, .taz, .z, .gz) format. If
this type of message is sent to your Gmail address,
it is bounced back to the sender automatically.

Microsoft has started giving the public a taste of the
next generation of its development platform and tools.
In this regard, the Redmond company made available for

with VS2008, however like any pre-release software you
should be careful about using the product on your main
machine. We are not (yet) opening the product up for
general ‘go live’ usage; our goal is to
get your feedback on the feature set and direction we
are headed,” revealed Jason Zander, general manager,
Visual Studio, Developer Division, Visual Studio 2010
Beta 1.
According
to the Redmond company Visual Studio 2010 Beta 1 is
designed to play nice with a range of Windows platforms.
In this regard the software giant indicated that the
bits could be installed on both the 32-bit and the 64-bit
flavors of Windows Vista (all SKUs with the exception
of Starter edition), Windows XP SP2 and SP3, Windows
Server 2003 SP1 and later, Windows Server 2003 R2 and
later, Windows Server 2008 RTM and SP2, Windows Server
2008 R2 RC Enterprise and Windows 7 RC Ultimate.
