Microsoft has traditionally geared its development of Microsoft BackOffice applications toward providing network administrators with tools that can facilitate the functionality and management of their Microsoft Windows NT networks. For example, applications such as Microsoft Exchange 5.5 and Microsoft SQL Server 7.0 provide exceptional mail and database support through centralized management. Microsoft Systems Management Server (SMS) 2.0 is just such a product. In this current release, especially with the application of Service Pack 1, you have a superior product that provides centralized management and support for your install base of computers. Those of you who have grown up with SMS will be particularly impressed with the improvements made in this version that enhance the product's functionality and scalability within large enterprise networks.

Pro Silverlight 3 in C#

Pro Silverlight 3 in C#
640 pages | Apress; 1 edition (October 12, 2009) | 1430223812 | PDF | 21 Mb

Full-color graphics and screenshots throughout make Pro Silverlight 3 in C# an invaluable reference for professional developers wanting to discover the new features of Silverlight 3. Author Matthew MacDonald's expertly crafted tutorial guides you through creating rich media applications using Silverlight in the environment you're most productive in—no matter what the target platform.

As you learn about the features that put Silverlight in direct competition with Adobe Flash, such as rich support for 2D and 3D drawing, animations, and media playback, you'll experience the plumbing of .NET and the design model of WPF through Silverlight–all of the same .NET technology that developers use to design next-generation Windows applications. Author Matthew MacDonald provides an expertly crafted tutorial written from professional developer to professional developer. You'll learn to create rich media applications using Silverlight in the environment you're most productive in–no matter what the target platform.
What you'll learn
Develop rich media applications using Silverlight across browsers and platforms.
Create a project, set up a layout, and use controls.
Handle both 2D and 3D drawing, animation, and media playback through Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF).
Integrate web services support.
Use Silverlight in conjunction with ASP.NET and its interactions with HTML.

Silverlight 3 is the latest iteration of Microsoft's cross-browser technology for creating rich user experiences on the Web. Like its predecessor, Silverlight 2, it rides atop the .NET Framework for maximum ease of use and coding efficiency. The new technology carries forward much of the work that has been done before and augments it in many important respects, including support for H.264 video, major improvements to the graphics engine (including true 3D rendering), and much richer data-binding options for interfacing with other applications.

XP Tips & Tricks

From the author: The idea of releasing tricks and tips in PDF format came into my mind after seeing the postings in some Orkut communities, where people are being asked to provide their e-mail for getting some trick/tip delivered to their address. Some postings even promised the delivery of ‘genuine’ softwares for hacking Yahoo! and Gmail. If you are one of them, then here is a reminder for you: “Real hackers do not need e-mail addresses. They just need a sharp brain and a beautiful mind”.

Well, my conclusion is that there will be no conclusion to this. As long as hacker communities are here, there is going to more and more to witness, enjoy and learn.
