- Bangkok Software Pirates Back - Driven out in a crackdown earlier
this year, traders selling pirated music, software and X-rated movies
have returned to Pantip Plaza, a chaotic, packed shopping center in
downtown Bangkok. The price -- 100 baht ($2.32), a fifth of what customers
would pay for a legal hit CD album. Software owners are complaining that trade
in pirated CDs and DVDs, everything from the latest Microsoft Windows system
to Hollywood movies, is booming again in Pantip Plaza and on roadside stalls
after authorities halted aggressive raids in February.
- Denver Becomes First City with Complete Wireless Internet Coverage -
An agreement between the city of Denver and Ricochet Networks has made
Denver the first city in the U.S. with complete wireless Internet
coverage. The city and county of Denver will grant a use permit to
Denver-based RNI in exchange for 1,000 wireless modems and unlimited service
for its law enforcement agencies.
- China targets Windows with Linux-based OS -
Called
Yangfan Linux, which means "raise the sail" in Chinese, the open source
operating system is being pieced together by the Beijing Software Industry
Productivity Center, a group established by the government to organize Linux
development in China. Now six months in the making, Yangfan has been installed
on 2,800 government computers, replacing Windows and in some cases early
versions of Linux already running inside the government.
- PGP is back! - Jon Callas, the former PGP chief scientist, becomes
the CTO of the new company, PGP Corporation. Will Price, former Director of

news is that the Windows XP and Mac OS X versions of version 8.0 of the

The King is dead! Long live the King! How's this for a plot-twist? The
challenger Radeon - a real "Performeron" - has actually done it and usurped
the throne from the former king! ATi has earned itself not only the
performance crown in gaming environments, but also that of the technology
leader. More reviews&benchmarks:

- ATI Radeon 9000 Review - ATI keeps amazing me positively. When I
received the card, I figured it was just barely able to surpass the GF4 MX
cards in performance.
But it has shown an excellent performance Even against the biggest
GeForce4 card(!!) Since ATI has planned to replace the LE cards with this 9000
version, they have pushed the price down. And with a performance like this you
can't complain :)
- Trident Interview - Hardware Accelerated has posted
an interview with Le T. Nguyen of Trident Microsystems as he talks about
the XP4 graphics chipset which Trident recently introduced and is supposed to
be fast and cheap.
- Ahanix Iceberg 1 Water Cooling Kit review - Overclockers are always
looking for a better way to keep their processors cooler. If you've found the
best heatsink and best fan, but that still isn't cooling your processor
enough, you may want to look in to water cooling.
Water cooling isn't just for overclockers. If your looking to keep your
CPU cool, or your computer is in a hot environment begging for cooling, then
water cooling maybe the thing you need. With water cooling, there is no loud
fans, only one very quiet case fan to cool the radiator.
- EPoX 8K9A3+ & 8K9A2+ Specs - The differences between them is
the 8K9A3+ will have
HPT374 RAID chip with 12 IDE channels all together while 8K9A2+ will have
HPT372 RAID and Serial ATA chip.
- Apache upgrade released to fix security hole - PivX Solutions, a
network security consultancy in Newport Beach, California, disclosed the
vulnerability Friday soon after
an upgrade to Apache Version 2.0 that fixes the hole was made available on
the Web. The hole could allow an attacker to remotely access all the files on
an Apache 2.0 Web server, execute them, pass malicious code, and even shut
down the system completely, said Geoff Shively, who goes by the title "chief
hacking officer" at PivX Solutions.
