YouTube has launched new Movies category for enable users to watch full length free movies. The YouTube Movies contains about 400 full-length films for your on-demand viewing pleasure, all free of charge. This contains movies in categories like Documentary & Biography, Bollywood, Action & Adventure, Comedy, Horror, Mystery & Suspense, Drama, Animation & Cartoons, and Recently added movies.
You can visit movies in following categories: Documentary & Biography, Bollywood, Action & Adventure, Comedy, Horror, Mystery & Suspense, Drama, Animation & Cartoons, and Recently added movies.
All moves has rated according to contents. When a partner uploads a video that does not have a specified content rating (i.e. MPAA or TV rating), YouTube ask that the content owner rate any mature content in these five categories: Language, Nudity, Sexual Situations, Violence and Drug Use.
The renewed section, which is actually more like the next step in previously announced projects, comes courtesy of deals the Google company struck with U.S. studios like Lionsgate, MGM and Sony Pictures and UK service Blinkbox.
This contains a lots of movies from Bollywood like Maine Pyar Kiya, Vivah, Main Prem Ki Diwani Hoon, Dhamaal, Ek Aur Ek Gyarah, and some old classic like Piya Ka Ghar, Barsaat Ki Ek Raat, An Evening In Paris, Aradhana, Amar Prem. You can also enjoy a bunch of Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan films, obscure horror movies and cartoons, among many other sections.
YouTube head of video partnerships Donagh O’Malley told, This is one of many efforts to ensure that people can find all the different kinds of video they want to see, from bedroom vlogs and citizen journalism reports to full-length films and TV shows. We hope film lovers enjoy the range of titles in this free library, whether catching up on a mainstream hit or delving into the vast archive of classic films from decades past.

Run Mac OSX In Virtualbox Under Linux (Ubuntu) And Windows
Lifehacker has a nice post on installing the latest Mac OSX (OSX86) in VirtualBox on Windows, however their instructions work for Linux too - I have tested it in Ubuntu and OSX 10.6 runs smoothly and without any issues.
Remember to use an OSX86 ISO (Lifehacker recommends you download an OSX86 Snow Leopard torrent created by Hazard) and everything will be as easy as installing Ubuntu - you will however need more resources then for a regular Virtual machine, especially for the hard disk space. And of course, you will also need the latest VirtualBox version.
Important: your CPU needs to support hardware virtualization, or else this will not work!
Note: even though the Lifehacker article mentions that you will be needing around 1 GB of RAM and that the virtual hard disk size should be around 20GB, you can use less if you do not have enough RAM / HDD space to spare. I have used ~500MB of RAM and a HDD of 11.11 GB to install the latest OSX Snow Leopard in Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx. But of course, if you want to use Mac OSX Snow Leopard for more than just see it work, you will need to assign the VM some more system resources.
For the complete how-to, head over to Lifehacker.

Tips for Buying a Desktop Computer
Like most consumers, you probably have an idea of how much you want to spend on a desktop. But how do you ensure that you get exactly what you need? The different range of configurations, and the seemingly constant arrival of new and faster technology all make for a difficult decision. In this post I am going to go through the 6 main components that you need to worry about when choosing your dream machine and also the different things you will be looking for depending on your computer needs.
The 6 main components that you need to look at are:
Processor
Motherboard
RAM
Hard Drive
Graphics Card
Monitor
To help you find the right mix, I have outlined the 3 basic types of PC user.
The 3 main consumer groups I will use are:
Casual Use: Internet, mail and word processing (0 – 30 minutes a day). Price range: less than Rs.25,000 ($550)
Moderate Use: Casual Use + Photo / Video editing, light gaming (30min – 3 hours a day). Price range: between Rs.25,000 to Rs.35000 ($550 and $800)
Heavy Use: Moderate Use + heavy gaming, lots of editing (3+ hours a day). Price range: greater than Rs.35,000($800)
Before we get started, I am going to say that all of the prices listed are current as of the day of this post and are listed in INR and U.S dollars. You could probably find cheaper prices if you search but I am just going off the prices that I can find. Also, the prices listed above are just an estimate of what the average user in each group would need. Some people in the Casual Use group want a machine that will beat out most of the competition so they will spend more. Let us get started.
Processor
Processors are the heartbeat of your computer. If you pick one that is too slow your applications will get bogged down. If you pick on that is too fast you will just be wasting money. Picking one that is right for you can be difficult.
Casual Use: Since you are not going to be doing any processor intensive things, spending the extra money on a fast processor (or anything above a dual core) is unnecessary. The AMD Athlon2 X240 X2 240(2.9GHz) or the Intel Core2Duo E6550 (2.3GHz) processor should be perfect for you.
Moderate Use: You are going to want a faster processor to run all of your applications. Video editing and gaming need faster processors that your basic everyday use. The AMD Phenom 9600 (2.3 GHz quad-core) or the Intel Core2Duo Q6600 (2.4 GHz quad-core) will suite your needs perfectly.
Heavy Use: You are going to be gaming, using CPU intensive applications and you’re going demand the best. A high end quad-core processor is a necessity. The Intel Core i7 (3.0GHz) will blow all of the other processors out of the water. This quad-core processor will run anything you throw at it for years to come.
Motherboard
The motherboard is the foundation upon which your PC is built. Here is how to buy one that can accommodate all the components you want.
Form factor :The form factor sets the standard for a motherboards dimensions and layout, as well as the positioning of mounting holes, expansion slots, and ports. Your case must support the form factor of the board you choose. Most of todays motherboards are laid out in the ATX form factor. Home theater buffs looking to build a PC for the living room should consider a smaller MicroATX board. These boards use the general ATX design but include fewer I/O slots, allowing for a shorter board that can fit in a smaller case.
RAM slots
Most motherboards feature two to four memory slots. (Because of their size, MicroATX boards tend to offer fewer slots than their ATX counterparts.) Regardless of the board you choose, make sure it has enough slots to accommodate your needs. For optimum performance, look for boards that support faster DDR2 memory.
CPU socket
Your most important decision when buying a motherboard is the processor family you want the board to support. AMDs various Athlon 64 CPUs are compatible with Sockets 754, 939, 940, and AM2, depending on the particular Athlon 64 subfamily. The socket number, in the first three cases, simply corresponds to the number of pins found on the bottom of the processor; the AM2 socket, the latest iteration, uses 940 pins and is the first AMD socket to work with DDR2 SDRAM. Sockets 478 and LGA775 support Intel Pentium 4, Celeron and Core 2 Duo processors, the only difference being that the LGA775 design has the pins located on the motherboard CPU socket, as opposed to on the CPU itself.
Storage
With Serial ATA (SATA) hard drives becoming increasingly popular, most new motherboards offer both IDE and SATA connectors. If you want to future-proof your system, make sure your board supports SATA drives.
PCI slots
Most ATX motherboards provide at least four PCI slots for expansion. While these standard PCI slots are usually present for expansion cards like sound cards and Ethernet cards, faster PCI Express (PCIe) slots also appear on most mainstream boards. PCIe slots differ among themselves, however, according to the number of links, or lanes, they support. For instance, a PCIe x16 slot provides greater bandwidth than a PCIe x1 slot. (A single lane can transmit 2.5Gbps in each direction.) As a result, PCIe graphics cards employ x16, whereas an Ethernet card might use x1. Any expansion cards you plan to use must be compatible with the specific slot types, of course.
RAM
RAM is the main component when it comes to speed. In general the more RAM you have, the faster your computer will run. This is because Application instructions are put into RAM and they can be executed faster from RAM. If you want to run Vista, you are pretty much going to need 2GB of RAM.
Casual Use: If you are not runing Vista, 512MB – 1GB will be sufficient for your every day use. If you are going to run Vista or Windows 7, I would recommend 2GB. Any more and you would not really notice a performance difference.
Moderate Use: 2GB to 3GB (DDR@ or DDR3)will everything you ever need as a Moderate user. 3GB will run all of your applications.
Heavy Use: If you are running a 64bit OS, max out with 8GB (DDR3) of RAM. If you are only running a 32bit OS than the most you can put in is 4GB. Whatever OS you have, make sure you max out the amount of RAM you can have because you will need it.
Hard Drive
Storage space is totally up to your own preferences. Some casual users will want to store a large amount of data and some heavy users may only want a small storage device. If you are gaming a lot, a 10k RPM drive will run your applications a lot faster. Other than speed, theres no reason not to get a 7200 RPM drive. The size of such a drive will vary depending on how much data you are going to save.
Graphics Card
The graphics card is very important if you are going to be doing any gaming at all. If you are not going to game, most motherboards have an integrated graphics card that will be sufficient. I personally think ATI makes a much better graphics card than Nvidia does so I would not be talking about ATIs old cards.
Casual Use: An Intel integrated graphics card that is included with your motherboard should be sufficient for all of your needs. If you do want a dedicated graphics card the Nvidia 8600 is a fairly cheap card that will do well.
Moderate Use: Since you are going to be doing a little more gaming, you are going to want a fairly decent graphics card to keep up with the current games. The Nvidia 9800GT is a very good card, but it is a little more expensive. The 9800GT is a little cheaper, but not quite as good.
Heavy Use: Gaming is your life. You are going to want the best graphics cards possible (and more than one). The ATI Radeon HD 5970, I will be your best bet. There are some motherboards now that can even do 3-way SLI, which will run even the most graphically intensive games.
Monitor
Like storage space, the monitor is very much a personal choice. Some people like one smaller screen, some like one large screen and some like dual medium screens. If you are going to be gaming or doing any editing you are going to want a computer screen with a quick refresh rate (less than 5ms) and a good contrast ratio. If you are only looking at emails and surfing the web, it really does not matter which monitor you pick.
My recommendation is DELL or ASUS.
Conclusion
There are a number of different desktop computers out there and picking the right one for yourself can be difficult.
Hopefully you will find a computer thats right for you. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask in the comment section below.
