Free Angry Birds Rio for Windows is back again! - expired

Intel AppUp is giving away Angry Birds Rio for Windows for free! Limited period only, until January 15 (or while supplies last). I am not sure what this mean, software is just a soft copied, it can be download unlimited time right? Probably they have limited number of downloads. Anyway, this is for new registration only. So this is too bad for me, because I already got my Angry Birds Rio for Windows for free back in September last year.

Intel AppUp also added Chicken Invaders 4 Christmas as the freebie for new registration. Meaning you get US$11.99 worth of games for free!

Intel AppUp recently have being revamped and it looks much better than old version. One of the reason is to make sure Ultrabooks users also have a good user experience with AppUp. The old version of AppUp was actually created for netbook segment, however other Windows based PC also can use it.

The best part about Intel AppUp is I can retain the free software for very long time. Even though I changed to new laptop, I still can download and install the Angry Birds Rio from AppUp for free on new laptop, as long as I use the same user id on AppUp. Another good thing about AppUp is you can try the software for 24 hours before you decide to buy or not. This is very good because you don't need to go through all the process just to get refund in case you find out you don't like the software.

To get your free legal version of Angry Birds Rio and Chicken Invaders 4 Christmas, go to download Intel AppUp now:

Just like Glow, it runs in full screen, so your kids can play with it without the worry of changing your others Windows settings or software accidentally. :)

Free Drawing Apps for your kids (part one)

I have found 2 nice and FREE drawing apps for Windows which are very easy to use for kids and everyone! Windows should not be just work, work and work only, and not friendly to kids? Who says only Apple products are friendly. We have nice and free apps for Windows too!

In this part one, Glow is the apps that I am going to introduce to you. Glow is a free drawing application, which you can create beautiful glowing art. The apps is always full screen (I haven't find out how to not running in full screen), which is very nice if you want to let your kids to play with the apps only and not deleting or modifying other Windows setting or other software by accident.

Here are some of my favorite pictures created using Glow:




Glow is free and available at Intel AppUp at this link:

Free Angry Birds Rio For Windows - limited period - expired

This free download expire on September 29, 2011, just a few more days, go download it now!
Update: it is expire now, now it cost US$4.99 at Intel AppUp. However there are still a lot of free apps available at AppUp, I am trying a few of them now. :)

I only found out this recently, everyone can get Angry Birds Rio for Windows for Free! Thanks to Intel AppUp, if you register with Intel AppUp now, you can get Angry Birds Rio for your Windows XP and Windows 7, and it is completely free and also it is a legal download software, so no need to worry that is it illegal download or not. It didn't mention about Windows Vista though, but I think it should work as well.

What you need to do is go to Intel AppUp:
Intel AppUp

Download Intel AppUp and install it on your Windows.

Launch Intel AppUp, Click "Sign In" and then "Get one here" to create new account in a pop up windows, fill in name, email, password, and check on to agree terms and conditions blah blah blah, the trick is to stop at payment option registration.

Okay, now go back to the AppUp, sign in with email and password you registered just now, wait for it to sign in and download whatever needed to be download. You should able to find Angry Birds Rio for free on the AppUp. Click download and wait for it. Depend on your network/broadband, it will take a while since it is ~46MB.

Installation will begin automatically right after download completed. Wait for it to complete installation. And once it is done, click "Launch" on AppUp to start playing Angry Birds Rio! :D

Things to note:
1. Not sure you still can get Angry Birds Rio for free if you already register with Intel AppUp, but the FAQ did mention that we can register multiple account, meaning you can use another email to register, and get a-hem-a-hem this free Angry Birds Rio. :)

2. I can only launch this game from AppUp. I cannot launch Angry Birds Rio directly with the shortcut created on desktop during installation, it gives me an error. I tried to launch it by clicking the .exe of Angry Birds Rio, also same error. So I think we have to keep Intel AppUp while to keep playing this game. Update: I can now play Angry Birds Rio by clicking the shortcut directly, probably the installation was not complete at that time. :)
