Windows 7 Media Center and Boxee each has its own strengths, and now the Boxee Integration App gives you access to both with minimal hassle.

In fact, relations seem to have grown a lot frostier thanks to the iPad’s Flash-less introduction, and an escalating war of passive aggressive words culminated in Steve Jobs calling Adobe lazy . Lazy or otherwise, Adobe is keeping track of its download stats, and it’s taken the chance to boast that it received a cool 7 million download requests for Flash player from iPhone and iPod touch devices during December
