- IDF Spring 2002, Days 2 and 3 Coverage - All bets were on for
insiders speculating on the clock speed that Intel would introduce at its desktop
conference held during the IDF, on Wednesday, February 27. The latest that the chip
manufacturer had introduced was the Pentium 4 with 3 GHz, so expectations were running
even higher as a video clip from the Intel lab was presented, showing a Pentium 4 with
4000 MHz. A few industry experts took this soberly - actually, they were expecting clock
speeds of up to 5 GHz.
- Hercules 3D Prophet All-in-Wonder 8500DV Review - With the
release of their Radeon 8500, ATI proved itself as a very worthy competitor, however, one
area that has traditionally been ATI's biggest weakness is support. Now Hercules has
nothing but outstanding comments from everyone on their support and thus when Hercules
announced their new graphics cards based on the ATI chipset- it felt like a match made in
heaven. Today we have one such card- the Hercules
3D Prophet All-in-Wonder 8500DV.

you can crank out a live techno groove on the Karma. But it's not just a
make-idiots-sound-good pre-programmed toy keyboard; it's got a ton of stuff to offer those
of us who can actually play both the boogie and the slightly more difficult woogie. The Karma is a
super-flexible, highly tweakable algorithmic composition system, grafted onto a high
quality synth engine, wrapped in a funky burgundy case.
- Lifeview FlyVideo 3000 TV Tuner Review - The

TV-tuner that automatically scans antenna or cable TV sources for channels.
- 64MB EasyDisk Micro USB Hard drive Review - Easy disk is a
very great idea, basically it is a large amount of storage that can be accessed thru any
USB port. This means transferring files from one place to another doesn't involve small
floppies, or both computers having a zip drive. These drives are also bootable so you
could put your windows batch files, drivers and OS install utilities on it.
- BlueTake 'Bluetooth' USB Dongle Review - The

network access, dial-up networking, and so on.
