About

MSTechpages was founded in 2005 as VistaRIP.com to bring you news on Microsoft’s newest operating system: Windows Vista. Since then it has grown to become a repository for Vista, Windows 7, XP, Office and Xbox knowledge, ’how-to’ informational articles, book reviews and more. We have even started expanding the site to include Microsoft products as a whole. We are dedicated to bringing you the most current news available, FAQ’s and How To section. Since the site is becoming broader in the Microsoft realm, we decided to rename the site MSTechpages.

We are always looking for new contributors to help with the site, as well as any suggestions you may have to make MSTechPages.com a better place to visit on the web.

About our Contributors

 

Dustin Harper Head Editor, News Poster, Webmaster, Microsoft MVP

dustin_msftDustin is the big cheese here at MSTechpages.com. He started the site wanting to help other users of Windows Vista, 7 and XP. He is very active in the Microsoft public newsgroups (Microsoft Answers, Technet), as well as many other forums on the internet. He loves Microsoft software, but also gives other products well deserved respect (loves to play around with Linux, BSD). He is CompTIA certified as well as certified by Microsoft as a MCTS (Microsoft Certified Technical Specialist) in Windows Vista Configuration, Windows 7 Configuration and MCITP (Microsoft Certified IT Professional) in Windows Vista Consumer Support Technician. He also has several industry security certifications. All those letters basically mean that he’s had the experience with Windows and proven to Microsoft that he can do a few things with it! He holds a Master of Science in Information Security and Assurance degree from Western Governors University. He goes by several different monikers online including Dustin, PC509, Ur_Mom (only on [H]ardForum), among few others. He had released a couple of free ebooks on Windows 7, simple keyboard shortcuts and simple malware removal on Windows.
