Microsoft is in extreme need of a plumber to control the build leakage of its various softwares. Very recently Microsoft Office 2010 Beta 2 was leaked. The latest leak has the build number  14.0.4514.1009 and can be downloaded from torrent sites and third party sources. Looking at the build number, it seems the build was finalized on 14th October 2009 (Just a wild guess).

Everyone knows that Microsoft is going to release Windows 7 to the public on 22nd of October. But does anyone has the idea when will Microsoft open its retail stores or in other words Microsoft Store. Yes, the answer is 22nd October. And it makes complete sense to open the retail stores on the very same day on which Windows 7 will be made available to the general public.

Are you surprised by the title of the post. Well don’t be. The title of the post is perfectly right. If you thought even for a moment that you needed Zune HD to play music from Zune Pass, then you were wrong and its time to correct that thought. Zune Pass works perfectly when accessed via Nokia N97. Infact Nokia N97 has an edge over Zune HD when we compare it from the perspective of a media player.
