AMD said the new processors -- backed by PC makers including Acer, Alienware, HP and Lenovo -- would deliver performance improvements of as much as 80 percent over single-core Athlon 64s on select digital media and productivity applications.

How Not to Get Best Buy to Fix Your Broken TV

We�ve all been completely pissed off with Best Buy for one reason or another, but no matter how infuriatingly incompetent their people can be, it�s probably not a good idea to follow Marlene Anne Bagnall�s strategy for getting what you want out of them. She found out the hard way that while pulling a gun on the Best Buy television...

Iomega aiming for 800GB DVDs | CNET News.com

Storage company Iomega is looking to increase the capacity of DVDs up to 100 times, meaning it could, conceivably, create 800GB discs.

The San Diego, Calif.-based company announced on Tuesday that it had been issued a patent, U.S. Patent No. 6,879,556, which covers a method of encoding data on the surface of a DVD so more data--on the order of 40 to 100 times that of current capacities--can be stored. Current DVDs can hold up to about 8.5GB of data. Data transfer speeds would also jump five to 30 times, according to the company

Theisen used to watch a lot of American professional sports on television, but lately, thanks to the advent of the Fox Soccer Channel and the Spanish- language-oriented GolTV, it's pretty much all soccer, all the time, from anywhere around the globe that has him stuck to the TV set for numerous hours.

'Fortunately, my wife (Kathleen) is a soccer fan, too, and we're working through the problem,' said Theisen, a 45-year-old hydro-geologist who does consulting on environmental cleanup work, and finds time to both play and coach in the Marin Mayflower over-40 and Marin coed leagues and the San Francisco coed league."

* 1000 Bytes = 1 Kilobyte
* 1000 Kilobytes = 1 Megabyte
* 1000 Megabytes = 1 Gigabyte
* 1000 Gigabytes = 1 Terabyte
* 1000 Terabytes = 1 Petabyte
* 1000 Petabytes = 1 Exabyte - In 2000, 3 exabytes of information was created
* 1000 Exabytes = 1 Zettabyte

What's new:
A federal appeals court has squelched an FCC rule that would have required TV gear to use copy protection technology known as a "broadcast flag."

Bottom line:
The ruling is a big setback for Hollywood studios, which sought to limit unauthorized Internet redistribution of over-the-air TV broadcasts. But it's a reprieve for makers of HDTV sets, PC tuner cards, and USB and Firewire tuners.

Azureus Decentralizes Bittorrent
The Internet
Networking
Posted by timothy on Tuesday May 03, @06:20AM
from the infinite-onion-rings dept.
BobPaul writes "While the eXeem project to decentralize Bittorrent remains in open beta, the Azureus Java Bittorrent project has recently released a major update that, among other things offers 'a distributed, decentralised database that can be used to track decentralised torrents. This permits both "trackerless" torrents and the maintenance of swarms where the tracker has become unavailable or where the torrent was removed from the tracker.' It doesn't contain the search functionality of eXeem, but it's also not a beta product and is licensed under the GPL. Could this and compatible clients be the replacement to SuprNova and Lokitorrents, or does the lack of search negate its effectiveness?"
