- Trade officials raid Intel's Japan offices - Intel said Thursday
that officials from Japan's fair trade watchdog
raided its Japanese unit's offices, and a source close to the matter said
the chip giant is suspected of unfair business practices.
- Japanese finger virus for police document leak - Japanese police
are
blaming a computer virus for a leak of information about criminal
investigations. Information from 19 documents - including investigation
reports, expert opinions and police searches - found its way from the hard
disk of an officer from Shimogamo Police Station in Sakyo Ward, Kyoto, onto
the Net last month.
- Off-topic: Quick flip of Earth's magnetic field revealed -
The Earth's magnetic field takes an average of only 7000 years to reverse its
polarity, but the
switch happens much more quickly near the equator, according to the most
comprehensive study yet of the last four reversals.
- Off-topic: Global warming may melt Greenland's ice, scientists warn -
Greenland's icy mountains and the island's entire ice cap
could disappear in the next 1,000 years because of global warming,
European scientists warn today. If that occurs sea levels will rise by
seven metres, drowning low-level coastlines around the world. Greenland is
covered by the biggest ice sheet in the northern hemisphere: almost 772,000
square miles of ice which is up to 1.9 miles thick, the base of which is below
sea level.
- Samsung Elec Unveils New TVs - Seeking to crank up sales of
flat-panel TVs amid growing competition from global players, Samsung
Electronics Co Ltd unveiled on Wednesday
a new technology which it claimed enhanced picture quality. Samsung is
launching high definition TV sets with its new DNIe (Digital natural image
engine) imaging technology. The technology can be applied to all color TVs
that come with flat screens, such as plasma and liquid-crystal display, as
well as projection sets and bulky cathode ray tubes.
- Chips Detail 64-Bit Differences -
The 64-bit extensions used by AMD and Intel are virtually identical and
should not present any major software incompatibility problems, according to a
report from market research firm In-Stat/MDR released this week. After a
thorough examination, only two instructions were discovered in a forthcoming
version of the AMD64 architecture that did not appear in Intel's Extended
Memory 64 Technology (EM64T). The two instructions allow data to be stored or
loaded in groups rather than as individual data points. Any incompatibility
issues that arose could probably be handled by a software patch.
- US Robotics speeds up Wi-Fi access - Network access manufacturer US
Robotics is to improve the speed capacity of its Wireless Turbo products by 25
per cent. From June, all 802.11g Wireless Turbo products from
US Robotics will
ship with 125Mbps upgrades, building on their present speed of 100Mbps.
- HP Color LaserJet 3700n first look -
The HP Color LaserJet 3700n bridges the gap between the sub-$1,000
personal color laser printers and the $2,000-and-up mid-range color laser
printers—not just in price, but in performance, too, although it stubs its toe
on graphics quality.
- V-TEC V-Drive Flash Pen review - It's a stylish, shiny black and
chrome calligraphic implement that also
contains 32, 64, 128 or 256MB of Flash memory, configured as a hard drive.
The styling is spoiled only by the word's "V-Drive USB Flash Drive" written in
large letters down the length of the pen, and an ugly silver sticker pointing
out the capacity. Sorry, V-TEC, this is what packaging is for.
- D-Link DCS-5300 review -
The
D-Link DCS-5300 is a must for any business owner or person looking to
protect their home. It can serve many functions, but none greater than keeping
you and your possessions safe. There is no doubt that the quality of the
camera is top notch and deserving of every single cent you pay for it.

| Comments from Disgusted | posted - 10:48 PM CEST - Apr,09 2004 | | A news article should be made on ati vs nvidia on milking technology. Perfect example is ATI now, all of a sudden upping the specs of their card. How much more speed are they holding back you must wonder? Both companies make me sick. If they were both honest companies they'd just output the technology they have and make consumers happy. This is just a bigger push for people to go to console, imo. |
