Windows XP Home Edition

  • Contains basic support for security among multiple users.
  • Built-in support for peer-to-peer networking, but only for up to five computers.
  • The backup utlity is not installed by default, but is included on the CD.

    Windows XP Professional Edition
  • Includes extended support for security between multiple users on the same machine.
  • Better support for peer-to-peer networking, plus support for joining a "Windows NT domain."
  • The backup utlity is installed by default.

    LIGHT OF DAY NIAGARA BENEFIT CONCERT FOR PARKINSON'S & ALS

    Monthly E-Marketing Article Local, New York and New Jersey artists
    join together for a great cause.


    On December 9, 2007 The Niagara Centre for the Performing Arts will be holding the Canadian Light of Day concert to benefit victims of both Parkinson's Disease and ALS. The Light of Day shows originated back in 2000 in New Jersey at the infamous Stone Pony. With artists such as Southside Johnny, Joe Grushecky and Bruce Springsteen headlining the shows, these shows have raised over $200,000 in the fight against Parkinson’s. Artists such as Joe D’Urso from New Jersey and Willie Nile, a native Buffalonian, have expanded the scope of this great project. Last year they began Light of Day Europe with concerts in Rome, Bedford and Barcelona. This year they not only added Stockholm and Rotterdam to the European schedule but also two Canadian shows - Toronto and Niagara Falls.

    The show will be held at the Niagara Centre for the Performing Arts at 4700 Epworth Circle in Niagara Falls. The show will begin at 7 pm with various local bands playing a few songs each, culminating with the Rick Rose Band Reunion. At 9 pm the stage will be transformed for the "Songwriters in the Round". New Jersey recording artist, Joe D'Urso, Buffalo New York’s' Willie Nile and Ron LaSalle and Toronto's Ron Sexmith will all trade-off playing their songs and telling stories in "the round". Parkinson's disease is a chronic and progressive neurological condition

    Tickets are $25.00 for adults, $15.00 for students and VIP (first 2 rows and Meet & Greet) for $50.00. Tickets are available at The Beat Goes On, Video 2000 and DANIMA Technologies Inc. in Niagara Falls, Sunrise Records in St. Catharines, and on-line at TicketPro.ca.
