If you are not up to date with the subject, I have to say that Kim released a few months ago a short teaser on YouTube about his upcoming project. Since then, the team behind Mega launched other advertisements about the… Continue to Only 5 days left before the Mega Upload comeback, says Kim Dotcom

Dropbox is one of the most successful cloud storage solutions that we have available in this moment on the market.

By James in Windows 8 No Comments Tags: update available notification, Windows 8

Even though Windows 8 comes with a new user interface and a lot of new features, there’s at least one which seems that it did not get the same level of attention from Microsoft.
