Supreme Court Unscrambles DVD Decision - There's a war raging in cyberspace, and this time it is the movie industry that's feeling the heat. The U.S. Supreme Court reversed an emergency stay on a case involving DVD descrambling Jan. 3. In so doing, the high court affirmed a decision of the California Supreme Court, which had ruled that the entertainment industry could not force a Texas resident who had published DVD descrambling software on the Internet to stand trial in California. This means that the defendant, Matthew Pavlovich, who posted the software called DeCSS, is able to distribute the program online.
Spanish Police Arrest 14 for Microsoft Piracy - Spanish police have arrested 14 people for intellectual piracy, including the first-known forgeries of authenticity certificates for Microsoft's Windows XP Professional edition, the Interior Ministry said on Thursday. Investigators found 3,000 perfectly copied and packaged CDs with the operating system software, accompanied by the fake guarantee certificates, in the northern city of San Sebastian, the Ministry said in a statement.
Retail Half Life 2 pirated in Russia(?) - TheInquirer has received some photographs of a two-disk Half Life 2 distribution which he says is on the shelves of a Russian trader in Novosibirsk. The game has been translated into Russian, and according to our reader, this is a copy taken from Valve's web site and "translated and compiled by the chaps out there"....Fake or not? :) [thanks Trevor]
Perchance to dream - anything you like with the fantasy machine - Entering an exam hall totally unprepared or walking the streets naked may soon become nightmares of the past. A Japanese toymaker, which has already brought us cats and dogs that "talk" said yesterday it had developed a gadget enabling people to turn fanciful daydreams into realistic night-time experiences. Before hitting the futon, all the owners of Yumemi Kobo, or Dream Workshop, have to do is stare at a photograph of what they would like to dream about and then record, in their own words, how the dream is supposed to pan out. Once users are in the land of nod, the gadget goes to work, combining the voice recording, lights, music and aromas to stimulate sleepers whenever it detects rapid eye movement - a sign that someone is dreaming - and directs their dreams accordingly.
AMD Athlon 64 3400+ - The Athlon 64 3400+ is another step forward for AMD but the 3200+ offers a better price/performance ratio. The Athlon 64 family is still pretty new, and the need to buy a new motherboard may put off some potential upgraders for a while yet. That said, there are bound to be some great Athlon 64 3400+ PC deals from system integrators over the next couple of months. Of course when 64bit Windows rears its head, you can expect to see a big upturn in Athlon 64 sales.
Corsair XMS4400 TwinX 1GByte memory review - In summary, Corsair's XMS4400 TwinX 1GByte memory pack will appeal to a very select, niche market. Priced at over L300 it certainly isn't cheap. Recommended if your setup can make the full use of it - just ensure that it can before you part with a large chunk of cash.

Cordless Trackman Optical review - This is a cordless trackball that uses radio technology to communicate with its receiver over a maximum 2 metre range, (6'). It uses optical sensors, similar to that used in optical mice, for detecting movement of the trackball. Theoretically there are no moving parts to wear out since it is highly unlikely that the ball would wear out during the units life. It has eight buttons including the standard left/right mouse buttons and a scroll wheel. The unit is powered by two AA batteries which have a life expectancy of up to 6 months with normal use.
Pacific Digital U-30201 DVD±RW recorder - The Pacific Digital U-30201 did not return good jitter values or at least not as good as we would have expected, considering that the LiteOn drive for the same set of tests was particularly good. The table above further shows that the drive did go over the 35nsec Red Book limit for all speeds excepting 8x.

Actually HL2 is not a fake, it's just a compiled version of what was stolen from valve's site. It is not true that it's translates to Russian, the game is "as is". I myself tried to play it, but it's not finished and still not completely playable, it have a main engine and levels which you can choose and play, but truly you can only play few levels, all the rest are incomplete and not playable.

P.S. TheInquirer (as always) had a very old news, this release of HL2 is already sold about two-three month
