I had an interesting discussion with some members of a class I am teaching right now about how paging is done. It looks like there are four Functions that allow for paging and using Common Table Expressions. They all can optionally include a separate ORDER BY clause to specify how they are sorted (so your result set can be sorted differently than it is ranked).

Its official, once I installed iTunes 7.x (which I am uninstalling) it installs an addin into Outlook! I can't find any reason for this. I haven't determine exactly why it installs it and what it does (I disabled it). This is to go through a nasty bundling of stuff with iTunes (anyone understand why Apple gets away with this but Microsoft gets critisized for it?). When I install iTunes I get:

I am installing iTunes 7.0.1 because they still have the best selection of music (though admittedly, I burn them to CD and immediately rip everything in MP3 to strip them of DRM). When I installed it today, I got this curious complaint from the installer:

I am using the IE7 that is installed in Vista RC1 and while the new Google Toolbar does seem to work, it is causing problems with the context menu so I uninstalled it. Interestingly I can't figure out how to tell Google its not working. Does anyone know of a feedback mechanism (e.g. connect.microsoft.com) for Google?

Interestingly Windows Media Player 11's visualizations in Vista don't seem to be Video Hardware accellerated. While I understand that Windows Media Player 11 needs to be backwards compatible, it does make the visualizations looks ugly compared with the rest of the OS. Hopefully they'll change that for Vista RTM, but for now that are just plain ugly (and CPU hogs).
