- Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring DVD Plans - LOTR
will be released in no less than four versions this year. On 8/6, separate widescreen and
pan & scan versions will be released, each a two-disc set with identical extra
features. Disc one includes the film presented in English Dolby Digital Surround EX and
Dolby 2.0 surround (sorry, no DTS). Disc two is where all the goodies are at, and retail will be
$29.95 for either the pan & scan or widescreen editions.
- FBI to divulge more Carnivore details - A federal judge this
week ordered the FBI to
expand its search for records about Carnivore, also known
as DCS1000, technology that is installed at Internet service providers to monitor e-mail
from criminal suspects. The court denied a motion for summary judgment and ordered the FBI
to produce within 60 days "a further search" of its records pertaining to
Carnivore as well as a device called EtherPeek, which manages network traffic.
- Facial Recognition Coming To Cops' Cell Phones - Crooks and
fugitives have one more thing to worry about in their quest to keep one step ahead of the
law. The age-old police dragnet will soon have the help of a 21st-century tool that enables cops to see
the faces of wanted criminals in their mobile phones via a new facial recognition
application.
- Boffins fight hackers with the Therminator - Scientists at
California's Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey are using hacker methodology to
beat the bad guys, by incorporating automated scanning routines in a network perimeter
guardian known as the Therminator.
- Amiga returns with AmigaOne PPC hardware - The next generation
of Amiga hardware is being designed by Eyetech of the UK, which is currently taking
orders for developer boards (details in Bill's bulletin). This, the AmigaOne, is a PPC
machine with a G3 or G4, USB, built in Ethernet and built in modem. It takes up to two
gigs of memory, has a 2xAGP graphics adapter and four PCI slots.
- GF3 Almost Gone - NVIDIA has already managed to
sell out almost all GeForce3 Ti500 chips. So, the graphics cards on Ti4200 should come
out in time, without any delays, that is in late April. Ti200 chips are still available in
stock, however, NVIDIA has over a month at its disposal to complete this useful process
- Creative GF4 Ti 4400 Review - The 3DB4
Ti4400 comes equipped with 128MB of 2.8v, 3.0Nns Samsung 144-Ball FBGA memory and as
we saw further up the page it's placed with four chips on the front and four on the rear.
Synchronous features with Data Strobe allow extremely high performance up to 2.8GB/s/chip.
I/O transactions are possible on both edges of the clock cycle Range of operating
frequencies, programmable burst length and programmable latencies make this an extremely
flexible memory choice.
- Leadtek GeForce4 Ti 4400 Review- After seeing how some people
run 1.4GHZ systems with merely a GeFORCE 2 MX card, I decided to find out: How would a
GeFORCE 4 card run on a PIII/440BX system? Okay, so you caught me, in actuality I need to
upgrade my system, still though, the results are solid and do tell us a thing or two. Check them out.
- gobe Productive 3.03 Office XP killer? - Ars reviewed
the 2.0 version of gobeProductive for BeOS back in the day, and if you read that
review then you know that this was a software package that no BeOS power user could live
without. Well, now version 3.0 is out, and it's a solid, updated port to both Windows and Linux. In this review, I'll be
looking at the Windows port with an eye to introducing the package to users who aren't
familiar with its particular feature set. That being the case, I don't feel the need to
hit on any features that we've all come to expect in a word processor or a spreadsheet
program (e.g., spell check).
- Visual Studio .NET IDE Review - When I first decided to write a review of Visual Studio .NET, I thought it would be simple and
straight forward. I mean, it was not a review on the .NET initiative, but of the Visual
Studio IDE itself, and all integrated development environments are pretty much the same.
You have an editor to write the code in, a way to compile your application with a single
command, and most have nice debugging features built into the system. However, the Visual
Studio .NET IDE has left me feeling a bit overwhelmed by the vast number of features and
options that are available without making it complicated to use.
- ClonyXXL v2.0.0.3 - ClonyXXL is a
good copy protection detection scanner, wich can show what kind of protection is used on a
disc. It will provide you with the right settings for CloneCD, so you can make a working
copy of the disc.
- DriverSpyNT 1.20 - DriverSpyNT
is an advanced I/O request packet (IRP) monitoring tool for Windows NT/2Kk/XP. DriverSpyNT
can monitor and display IRPs sent to any device on the system. Additionally, it has the
powerful feature of displaying the input and output buffers of device I/O control
requests. (download)
- Apache Web Server 1.3.24 - Apache 1.3.24 is principally
a security and bug fix release. Of particular note is that 1.3.24 addresses and fixes the
issues noted in CAN-2002-0061 (mitre.org) regarding escaping of command line args on
Win32.
- ATi Multimedia Center 7.6 - ATi has posted an updated
version of their multimedia software called ATi Multimedia Center.
- FSAA Tester 1.04 - ToMMti-Systems has updated the FSAA tester to version
build 1.04.
- OCPad 0.7 RC7 - It calculates
most needed values for overclockers - Memory bandwidth, fillrate, memory speed by NS
rating and it will have more features in next releases. You will be able to calculate
results of your overclocking and understand speed of future pre-released hardware.
Overclocker's Pad understand SDR, DDR memory as well, as future QBM and even un-anounced
DDR-III. And best of all - it's FREE!
