  • Maxtor Announces 320GB HDD - I already mentioned this new HDD, but yesterday I missed the press release... :) Maxtor announced Maxtor MaXLine, its newest generation of ATA drives designed specifically for rapidly emerging enterprise storage applications including near-line, media storage and network storage.

  • Java flaws burn Internet Explorer - Security experts have issued warnings about vulnerabilities in the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) contained in the latest versions of Internet Explorer (IE).

  • Lighting Up Fetal Brain Activity - A device called SARA can detect and record fetal brain activity. That is a milestone for pediatrics, but the machine's most valuable feature lies in its potential to help reduce the number of children born with brain damage.

  • DirectX 9.1 to appear in Spring 2003 - DirectX 9.1 will not bring the new shaders that should be implemented in hardware that will be launched at the end of next year. Just to remind you, Microsoft decided at the last minute to accept Pixel Shader 1.1 as a standard for DirectX 8. This was a win for Nvidia since ATI's Radeon, later called Radeon 7200, had support for pixel shader 1.0 but not for 1.1. ATI did a similar thing as Nvidia with DirectX 8.1, when it introduced Pixel shader 1.4 with more instructions and improvements meaning the Nvidia Geforce 3 card supported just DirectX 8.0 but not DirectX 8.1.
    This time DirectX 9 hardware will have full support for all DirectX 9.1 feature. To clarify things for you, Radeon 9700 Pro and NV30 when it comes out will be DirectX 9.1 hardware. You won't see any new pixel shader supported in hardware than version 2.0, which is used by Radeon 9700 PRO.
