Leaked Memo Says Microsoft Raised $86 million for SCO - A document was emailed to an open source site by an anonymous whistleblower inside SCO. It tells the typos and syntax bobbles were in the original. The site cannot certify its authenticity. In related news, The SCO Group is officially denying a published report that claims Microsoft funneled more than $82 million and possibly up to $106 million into the embattled Unix company to help it fight IBM and Linux.
Losing Control of Your TV - In the future, the Motion Picture Association of America will control your television set. Every TV sold in the United States will come equipped with an electronic circuit that will search incoming TV programs for a tiny electronic “flag.” The MPAA’s members will control this flag, putting it into broadcast movies and television shows as they see fit. If the flag is present, your TV will go into a special high-security mode and lock down its high-quality digital outputs. If you want to record a flagged program, you’ll have to do so on analog tape or on a special low-resolution DVD. Any recording will be limited to analog-quality sound. This security measure is not designed to protect the television from viruses or computer hackers—it’s designed to protect TV programs from you.
DVD copy software provider loses 2nd court battle - For the second time in as many weeks, a provider of software that allows people to make copies of DVDs has lost a court battle and been barred by a federal judge from selling its product. The federal judge's ruling handed Hollywood's major movie studios another victory in their battle to stem the illegal copying of movies and TV shows on DVD, and in a statement, studio lawyers said they would look at whether a new version of 321's software now on the market also violates copyright law.
How Tiny Swiss Cellphone Chips Helped Track Global Terror Web - The New York Times reports that Al Qaeda operatives were tracked using the ID of the GSM phone chips sold by a Swiss company named Swisscom (thanks Slashdot.org)
Lindows routes OS over file-sharing networks - The company said Thursday that it is set to distribute its LindowsOS through P2P networks for $25, half the normal price, from its Web site. Lindows has been targeting consumers with its packaged version of the open-source Linux operating system, which has a reputation of being geared more for technically savvy individuals. The file-sharing setup means lower networking costs for Lindows and faster downloads for users, the company said. By cutting back on bandwidth rates and on hosting infrastructure such as servers and firewalls, Lindows said it can serve 1,000 or more simultaneous customers rather than the 125 its earlier system could handle.
QuickTime hole waiting to be filled in - A critical hole in Apple Computer Inc.'s QuickTime media player has been identified and is waiting on a patch from the vendor. The vulnerability rated at "high severity" by eEye Digital Security -- the company that discovered it -- enables malicious code to be run on someone's machine "with little user interaction". The hole exists across all versions of QuickTime and is present in the software's default settings, increasing the risk of the hole being used by hackers.
UK bans Nokia N-Gage ads after complaints - Britain's advertising watchdog has banned an advert for Nokia's new combined mobile phone and games console because it could be seen to encourage sexual violence towards women.
Philips' New Camera Lens Works Like Human Eye - Philips Electronics said on Thursday it had invented a tiny digital camera lens to fit inside a mobile phone that could focus on objects and create sharp pictures in ways that are similar to the human eye. Unlike high-end digital cameras, the new lens does not require mechanical moving parts because it works by manipulating two fluids in a tiny transparent tube. Philips said it will build a production line for the three millimeter lenses that are aimed at low-cost imaging products, such as digital cameras that fit inside a mobile phone or a home security system.

AMD to Unleash Athlon 64 FX-55 Processor in Q2/Q3 - The forthcoming AMD Athlon 64 FX-55 (2.60GHz) and AMD Athlon 64 3800+ (2.40GHz) will be AMD’s top offerings this year, according to the report. The AMD Athlon 64 4000+ and AMD Athlon 64 4200+ are moved into the 2005. While the both top offerings from AMD will certainly be able to successfully compete against the Intel Pentium 4 3.80GHz, will they be as fast as the Pentium 4 4.00GHz in the fourth quarter of the year?

Acer Ferrari 3000 First Look - Acer adds a new shade to the familiar notebook colors of black, silver, titanium, gray, and silver-blue: Rosso Corso-Ferrari's racing red. Those who want a portable computer that stands out can do far worse than the Acer Ferrari 3000 ($1900) with its bright red cover displaying a gold-and-black prancing stallion-a logo instantly familiar to fans of the Italian sports car.

The Next Generation of mail clients - comparison - This article compares Evolution 1.5.2 (unstable), KMail 1.6 (part of KDE 3.2), Opera 7.50 (preview 2), Mozilla 1.6 / Thunderbird 0.5 and Microsoft Outlook 2002 SP-1 (part of Microsoft Office XP).

Console Emulators: Our Newest Benchmark - From Anandtech benchmarks, it is obvious that ATI Radeon cards are better suited for emulating the games that they tested under ePSXe and Pete's plugins with the settings they chose. The NVIDIA cards did hold their own and can take care of some tasks very well, so it isn't really fair to say that they aren't good enough to emulate a PlayStation game.
Clean Windows Prefetch Cache Automatically - This is a unique technique for Windows XP operating system. Following is a definition given by Microsoft on prefetching technique.Windows XP monitors the files that are used when computer starts and also when you start applications. By monitoring these files, Windows XP can prefetch them. Prefetching data is the process whereby data that is expected to be requested is read ahead into the cache. Prefetching boot files and applications decreases the time needed to start Windows XP and start applications. (thanks WinOSCentral)
