Since I have been using Microsoft Azure Active Directory (AAD) for my newly AAD domain joined machine, I thought it would be a good idea to enable Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to my account. I really do care a lot about my (virtual) identity ?.

So, I was able to domain join my machine and get everything up and running on my Windows 10 machine. However, two things then happened:

1. My Windows Phone 8.1 told me that my Office 365 (O365) account cannot sync my mail, etc. anymore and it needs my attention. I thought “no big deal … just let it configure again and add my 2nd factor to it and done”. As a matter of fact, this does not seem to work right now, the phone tries for a couple of minutes and then says that something went wrong and it cannot activate my account anymore.

Just recently I wanted to give Windows 7 RC a test drive. I used to run Windows XP on a pretty old fashioned computer with the following setup:

- AMD Athlon XP 1600+
- 2 GB RAM
- ASROCK K7VT4A Pro
- ASUS V7100 Pro

This setup works quite decently. Well, at least for the purpose I am using this machine for which is emailing, surfing and some document and media management.
