Microsoft Outlook 2007 Tips and Tricks From ASysTech

To make sure customers and friends know how to reach you, share your contact information with them electronically. Use Outlook 2007 to create and send Electronic Business Cards that reflect the work you do, your personal style, your company's look, or all of those things.

Create your own Electronic Business Card and open it for editing
1. In the Navigation Pane, click Contacts (or press CTRL+3).
2. Create or open a contact for yourself (click New at the top of the window to create a new contact). Tip: If you're using Microsoft Exchange Server, you can save yourself a lot of typing when you create a contact for yourself by using the Address Book. To do this, press CTRL+SHIFT+B, find your own entry in the Global Address List, right-click the entry there, and click Add to Contacts.
3. At the top of the contact window, click the Business Card button (it's in the Options group on the Contact tab).

Control the information in your card
When you enter information in the contact form, Microsoft® Office Outlook® 2007 puts that information on the business card. The fields that appear on the business card are listed in the Edit Business Card dialog box, under Fields. You can change which fields are displayed on your card by adding or removing them from the Fields list. You can use labels to distinguish different fields, such as work and home phone numbers. To use a label, choose Left or Right from the list next to the Label box.

Include your Electronic Business Card in a message
1. Switch to e-mail by clicking Mail in the Navigation Pane (or press CTRL+1).
2. Click New to create a new e-mail message.
3. On the Ribbon, on the Message tab, in the Include group, click Business Card, and then click Other Business Cards.
4. Make sure Contacts is selected in the Look in list. From the list of contacts, click the one you created for yourself and click OK.
The business card is added to the end of the message and a .vcf file is included in the Attached box.

·  Run Windows and Mac OS Concurrently with Fusion

VMware, Inc., the global leader in software for industry- standard virtualized desktops and servers, has announced general availability of VMware Fusion.

Based on VMware's market-leading desktop virtualization platform, VMware Fusion allows Mac users to simultaneously run Mac OS X, Windows and other PC-based applications on a single Mac.

"VMware Fusion was designed for Mac enthusiasts looking for a seamless way to run Windows applications on the Mac," said Dan Chu, vice president of emerging products and markets at VMware. "VMware Fusion combines a very clean and intuitive interface that Mac users expect with the world's most trusted desktop virtualization platform to allow users to run Mac applications seamlessly alongside PC applications on Intel-based Macs."

Leveraging nearly a decade of desktop virtualization leadership and expertise underscored by more than 100 industry awards, VMware Fusion delivers the most advanced Mac virtualization software available today. The software allows Mac users to take advantage of their hardware's full potential by running both 32- and 64-bit operating systems, leveraging two processor cores at the same time and using a wide variety of USB 2.0 devices. VMware Fusion is also the only Mac virtualization software available today to provide full support for more than 60 operating systems and complete power management capabilities to safeguard virtual machines when laptops are running out of battery.
