Google’s acquisition of e-mail security vendor Postini is paying off for Google Apps enterprise users, who Wednesday are gaining access to extra security and compliance features.

The Google Apps Premier Edition will remain at its current price tag of US$50 per user, per year, despite significant upgrades based on Postini’s software-as-a-service offerings, Google officials say.

Google is also upping Gmail capacity for Premier Edition users from 10GB to 25GB. Both moves could help Google compete against the Microsoft Office set of workplace tools, which has long dominated the business market.

I will be writing more TV show reviews for our ExtraTorrent.com blog, this is the first of them its South Park, personally I’m not a fan, but I have to cater for everybody

The Tourette Syndrome Association voiced their opinions about the episode, before it airs. They say they “fully expect it to be offensive and insensitive to people with TS and garner numerous calls and emails from our members and the TS community.”

TS short for Tourette Syndrome

Another piece of news in relation to South Park, is that after the episode has been aired it will be available to download and it will be un-cut, meaning the version aired will be edited, where as the download version is in full.

Please note: the download version may be in WMV format meaning Windows Media Video, so the quality be differ slightly, and the staff at South Park, realise their fans like downloads so their making them available
