within the Justice Department to construct a Web-based system for sharing terrorist data with state
officials. Ashcroft directed the deputy attorney general to coordinate the building of a

first virus to
infect programs and reports used by the high-end SAP R/3 business information system,
was posted to an online virus library this week.
- Earth's Magnetic Pole is Flipping Sides - Scientists are getting
some data that indicates that all of that may change in the next millennia or two. The Earth's
magnetic poles are showing signs they may be preparing to flip. You read that
correctly-flip, switch, swap, and exchange polarities. "North" would become
"South", "East" would in reality actually be "West", and
those of us already directionally-impaired would have to simply give up and just stay at
home all the time, because we wouldn't be able to find our way anywhere.
- Wi-Fi "lite" from Microsoft - Setting up a network is
relatively inexpensive, costing $500 to $1,000 for a system that allows wireless access in
a 300-foot radius. The radio generally costs between $150 and $250. These networks are already in about 1.4
million U.S. homes and are catching on in restaurants, hotels, airports, workplaces
and conference centers. By 2005, analysts believe, Wi-Fi will be used in about 27 million
homes and 28 million offices.
- Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Hard Drive Round-up - If you are looking for an

performance over older USB 1.1 drives. Our reviewed drives' transfer speeds are rated at
between 10 to 16MB/s, with Maxtor Personal Storage 3000LE being the fastest.

- NVIDIA's GF4 Ti4200 Vs. Radeon 8500LEs - Today we'll be taking a
look at
three such products, the Apollo Graphics Devil Monster II Radeon 8500 LE, the ATi Radeon
8500 LE and an NVIDIA GeForce 4 Ti 4200. All three of these products offer features
like pixel and vertex shaders or have dual monitor support, but they are clocked lower
than the high-end products in their respective company's lineup. These lower clockspeeds
result in lower costs. All three of these products are priced at or below $200, about half
that of a Ti 4600 or 128MB Radeon All-In-Wonder. It's time to get up close an personal and
see what these cards are made of..
