  • Nintendo Game Boy Advance SP Preview  - The Nintendo Game Boy Advance SP ($99.95 list), a sleek innovative update to the wildly successful GBA, is due to hit North America on March 23.
  • Cosmic rays could catch nuclear smugglers  - The particles generated by cosmic rays crashing into the Earth's atmosphere could reveal nuclear material and other dense objects hidden inside cars, trucks and sea containers. The objects can be detected because the particles are deflected by dense matter. For example, a cube of uranium only 10 centimetres wide hidden in a livestock truck could be spotted in just one minute, say the scientists at the Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico who have developed a detector.
  • Iraq war could send German cars in wrong direction - The satellite-based system, funded and controlled by the US Department of Defense, provides specially coded signals that can be processed to enable the receiver to compute their position, speed and time. The German automobile club AvD said experts fear that just before military action against Iraq, which seems likely to start later this week, the signals will be encoded in order to make them less accurate. The argument is that by doing so, the enemy -- in this case Iraq -- would not be able to exploit the system to pinpoint US-led forces sweeping into the country. Currently, the GPS system has an accuracy to within around five metresfeet), but AvD said it could be reduced to more than 100 metres.
  • Security: Another Critical Windows Flaw Found - A new software vulnerability that affects a number of different versions of Microsoft's Windows operating system could enable remote attackers to use a Web page or HTML formatted e-mail message to run their own malicious code on a Windows machine.
  • Security: Flaw Found in Siemens Mobile Phones - A long-known bug can still freeze two series of cell phones manufactured by Siemens if users haven't yet installed a patch. Siemens' 35 and 45 series phones are affected by the bug, said Siemens spokesperson Michael Stenberg. The company's new 55 series is not affected. The bug, according to Stenberg, is linked to the EMS, or enhanced messaging service, technology used in the phones. By sending a single word, for instance, from the phone's language menu surrounded by quote marks and preceded by an asterisk as control code to an EMS-capable handset, people can cause the phone receiving the message to freeze
  • Security: Latest Windows Patch Poses Problems - The patch, announced Monday in security bulletin MS03-007, is incompatible with 12 software fixes for Windows 2000 issued by Microsoft's Product Support Services between December 2001 and February 2002. Users running any of those fixes won't be able to reboot their Windows 2000 systems after applying the "critical" patch. Customers running Windows 2000 with Service Pack 2 installed should verify the version of a file called "ntoskrnl.exe" on their system before applying the patch. Versions of this file from 5.0.2195.4797 up to and including 5.0.2195.4928 were distributed by PSS and are not compatible with the patch.
  • Security: New Ganda Worm - The worm, called Ganda, appears to have been written in Sweden and promises images taken from Iraqi spy satellites.  It uses a variety of email subject lines to encourage users to open its attachment, with some exploiting latent anti-US sympathies by promising satirical screensavers ridiculing President Bush. These include: 'Spy pics', 'GO USA !!!!', 'G.W Bush animation', 'Is USA always number one?'.
  • CeBIT 2003: Final Day Coverage - Tom's Hardware Guide has posted the final day of their CeBIT coverage.

  • Micron sends 4-Gbyte DIMM to Intel - Micron Technology Inc. said today that it has delivered the industry's first 4-Gbyte DDR dual-in-line memory module (DIMM) to Intel Corp., even though Samsung claimed it had a 4-Gbyte DIMM back in January 2003. Micron's DIMM has been fashioned to meet 184-pin PC1600 and PC2100 DDR SDRAM standards. Micron used 1-Gbit DDR-266 SDRAMs in 400-mil thin small outline packages (TSOP), Micron said.
  • Intel Pentium 4 3.06GHz Review - Interestingly under Comanche 4 we can see that the best performance occurs with HyperThreading enabled. With HyperThreading On, the P4 3.06GHz is in the 25%-28% performance increase range over the P4 2.53GHz, which is a little better than the 21% clock speed increase. In comparison to the P4 2.4GHz the performance is over 50% better - much more than the 27% clock speed advantage.
