Freestyle Music Park is offering an admission price of $5 this weekend -- Friday through Sunday -- for anyone who wears a single white glove, dons a red zipper jacket, wears white socks with dress shoes or with the initials "MJ". There will also be a memorial for Michael Jackson at the front gate where fans can sign a canvas and leave cards or memorabilia throughout the weekend. Donations are being collected for the Make A Wish Foundation, which Jackson supported. If you have not visited free style park yet, this will be a perfect opportunity to see what the park is all about.

Send money FREE using PAYPAL

2009-06-26T16:38:00.002-04:00

At long last PayPal, will allow Americans to do what the British have been doing for years: send gift money by PayPal for free.

PayPal has been taking up to 2.4% from the top of money gifts you send to friends and family (i.e. not for payments of service). The opposite has been true in the UK, they have been able to send money to each other left & right and it doesn't cost them a penny.

Beware though: the service is only free if it's funded by your PayPal balance or by your checking account; debit and credit card funding will still cost you. Again.

Thanks PayPal.

Microsoft lowers price of Windows 7

2009-06-26T16:13:00.002-04:00

Consumers who pre-order a copy of Microsoft's Windows 7 operating system will receive more than 50% off the retail price for a limited time starting Friday.

The full version of Windows 7 Home Premium is priced at $199, with an upgrade from Vista or XP costing $119. The full version of Windows 7 Professional is $299, with upgrades going for $199. Windows 7 Ultimate is priced at $319, with the upgrade version at $219.

But U.S. shoppers who pre-order between June 26th and July 11th will receive discounts of 50% or more, Microsoft said. For instance, Windows 7 Home Premium will sell for $49 during the discount period, while Windows 7 Professional will sell for $99. Participating retailers include Best Buy and Amazon, as well as Microsoft's own online store.

Microsoft also disclosed an upgrade program through which consumers who purchase a Vista-powered PC can migrate to Windows 7 at little or no cost when Windows 7 becomes available on Oct. 22.

For those of you that never liked Vista, you may want to look into the new Windows 7. Especially at the discounted price.

How popular are they now?
