- Humans on Mars 'by 2025' - Under proposals being discussed by
member states, a robotic outpost could be set up on the Red Planet to pave the
way for a human landing. The European Space Agency (Esa) believes
that
by 2025, the technology will exist to send humans to Mars. It is
considering two flagship missions to find a suitable landing site for
astronauts and to bring back the first sample of Martian soil.
- DirecTV Broadband Makes Customer Transition Deals - DirecTV
Broadband
customers will not be left in the lurch when the high-speed Internet
service is discontinued next month. DirecTV Broadband's parent, Hughes
Electronics , has inked deals allowing subscribers to shift to SBC Yahoo!,
BellSouth and Verizon (depending on where they live) without interrupting
service.
- ATI Radeon 9500 Pro Overclocking - ATI has been releasing better
and better graphics chips starting with the original Radeon. They are
continuing the trend for the mainstream market with the R9500 Pro. You
probably have seen many reviews about the technology behind the Radeon 95/700
series, so I'm going
to go one
step further, an overclocking review.
- Archos announces first external DVD writer -
Archos
announces the launch of the next generation of DVD writers with the
introduction of the first portable (peripheral) DVD writer,
the DExDVD-RW. This innovative product offers the professional and home
user the ability to create and store video films, images and all types of
numerical files on any kind of DVD and CD
- AOpen AX45-4D Max - The First SIS Dual Channel Motherboard - Based
on ATX form factor featuring SIS655/963 chipsets, this
AX45-4D Max motherboard supports Intel Socket 478 Pentium 4 (Willamette /
Northwood) and 533 MHz Front Side Bus (FSB) clock. What is Dual Channel? You
might be wondering what kind of enhancement would this new technology do to
your system, right? Simply put, we used to have 64-bit memory bandwidth for
memory access. No matter how many memory modules have been installed, though
capacity added, the speed of access remains the same! From now on, with
128-bit dual channel introduced, it doubles the memory bandwidth up to 5.4GB
in advanced 128-bit mode!
- Samsung SPL4225 Tantus 42 inch Plasma Display Review - PC Stats has
posted
a new review of Samsung SPL4225 Tantus 42 inch Plasma Display.
"Samsung's Tantus SPL4225 Plasma display measures an impressive 42" across,
and a scant three and a half inches thick. The image quality is just luscious,
and if you can forget about the nearly ten thousand dollar (CDN) price tag for
a moment, there is virtually no downside to this display. This 42" plasma
display can be connected to a computer to act like a giant monitor for
presentations, or heck even gaming. As part of our...ummm testing...we played
a few rounds of UT2003 on the 42" SPL4225".
- YanC Nvidia board configurator for Linux OpenGL - Yet another
nV Configurator (YanC) is a GUI configuration tool for the NVIDIA

XF86Config options and environment variables. With it you can run your
OpenGL-applications with your favorite settings for antialiasing, anisotropic
texture filtering and vsync to blank without difficult command-line
operations. Includes source.
- Fusion Media Player v1.5 (free) -
The new version has a lot of new features like audio streaming and
recording, DVD playback, a new skin including a new audio mode and a lot of
more interesting features.
- Detonators Comparison - PC-Extreme has added the 42.01 Detonators
