What’s Happening • Hardware Compiled by Blaine Flamig Mickey Mouse Goes Flashing Just when we thought we’d seen every possible USB flash drive concoction known to removable memory, along comes Buffalo Technology’s new Disney-flavored RUF2-DF512NR series. We won’t even attempt to guess how much Buffalo forked over in licensing fees to turn out these Steamboat Willie, Pooh, and Stitch keydrives, but you’d think it could have done better than tapping them out at a puny 512MB. Still, you know Disney freaks worldwide will litter eBay in droves with des- perate bids to acquire one, which may be difficult considering Buffalo plans to limit sales to 5,000 units for each character. If you’re among the cult of Walt, that’s your own business, but the drives should be selling in Japan as you read this at a yet undisclosed price. ▲ Jobs Sings The DRM Blues Asus Takes The GeForce Love or hate Apple’s hype man, you have to admire Steve Jobs for 8800GTX Swimming spitting right in the eyes of the Warner, EMI, Sony, and Univer- sal record labels via an open letter (www.apple.com/hotnews Attention enthusiasts, focus your eyes on the high /thoughtsonmusic) calling for the dismantling of DRM protec- dive, Asus is hoping to make a splash with its new tion of digital music.

  • When Is a Microprocessor Not a Microprocessor? the Industrial Construction of Semiconductor Innovation I
    Ross Bassett When is a Microprocessor not a Microprocessor? The Industrial Construction of Semiconductor Innovation I In the early 1990s an integrated circuit first made in 1969 and thus ante­ dating by two years the chip typically seen as the first microprocessor (Intel's 4004), became a microprocessor for the first time. The stimulus for this piece ofindustrial alchemy was a patent fight. A microprocessor patent had been issued to Texas Instruments, and companies faced with patent infringement lawsuits were looking for prior art with which to challenge it. 2 This old integrated circuit, but new microprocessor, was the ALl, designed by Lee Boysel and used in computers built by his start-up, Four-Phase Systems, established in 1968. In its 1990s reincarnation a demonstration system was built showing that the ALI could have oper­ ated according to the classic microprocessor model, with ROM (Read Only Memory), RAM (Random Access Memory), and I/O (Input/ Output) forming a basic computer. The operative words here are could have, for it was never used in that configuration during its normal life­ time. Instead it was used as one-third of a 24-bit CPU (Central Processing Unit) for a series ofcomputers built by Four-Phase.3 Examining the ALl through the lenses of the history of technology and business history puts Intel's microprocessor work into a different per­ spective. The differences between Four-Phase's and Intel's work were industrially constructed; they owed much to the different industries each saw itselfin.4 While putting a substantial part ofa central processing unit on a chip was not a discrete invention for Four-Phase or the computer industry, it was in the semiconductor industry.

  • 1. Definition of Computers Technically, a Computer Is a Programmable Machine
    1. Definition of computers Technically, a computer is a programmable machine. This means it can execute a programmed list of instructions and respond to new instructions that it is given. 2. What are the advantages and disadvantages of using computer? Advantages are : communication is improved, pay bill's online, people have access to things they would not have had before (for instance old people who cannot leave the house they can buy groceries online) Computers make life easier. The disadvantages are: scams, fraud, people not going out as much, we do not yet know the effects of computers and pregnancy or the emissions that computers make,. bad posture from sitting too long at a desk, repetitive strain injuries and the fact that most organizations expect everyone to own a computer. Year 1901 The first radio message is sent across the Atlantic Ocean in Morse code. 1902 3M is founded. 1906 The IEC is founded in London England. 1906 Grace Hopper is born December 9, 1906. 1911 Company now known as IBM on is incorporated June 15, 1911 in the state of New York as the Computing - Tabulating - Recording Company (C-T-R), a consolidation of the Computing Scale Company, and The International Time Recording Company. 1912 Alan Turing is born June 23, 1912. 1912 G.

INTRODUCTION 1. Despite Intel’s intentional concealment of specific design choices that it long knew rendered its central processing units (“CPUs” or “processors”) unsecure, it was only in January 2018 that it was first revealed to the public that Intel’s CPUs have significant security vulnerabilities that gave unauthorized program instructions access to protected data. 2.

  • PC Gamers Win Big
    CASE STUDY Intel® Solid-State Drives Performance, Storage and the Customer Experience PC Gamers Win Big Intel® Solid-State Drives (SSDs) deliver the ultimate gaming experience, providing dramatic visual and runtime improvements Intel® Solid-State Drives (SSDs) represent a revolutionary breakthrough, delivering a giant leap in storage performance. Designed to satisfy the most demanding gamers, media creators, and technology enthusiasts, Intel® SSDs bring a high level of performance and reliability to notebook and desktop PC storage. Faster load times and improved graphics performance such as increased detail in textures, higher resolution geometry, smoother animation, and more characters on the screen make for a better gaming experience. Developers are now taking advantage of these features in their new game designs. SCREAMING LOAD TiMES AND SMOOTH GRAPHICS With no moving parts, high reliability, and a longer life span than traditional hard drives, Intel Solid-State Drives (SSDs) dramatically improve the computer gaming experience. Load times are substantially faster. When compared with Western Digital VelociRaptor* 10K hard disk drives (HDDs), gamers experienced up to 78 percent load time improvements using Intel SSDs. Graphics are smooth and uninterrupted, even at the highest graphics settings. To see the performance difference in a head-to- head video comparing the Intel® X25-M SATA SSD with a 10,000 RPM HDD, go to www.intelssdgaming.com. When comparing frame-to-frame coherency with the Western Digital VelociRaptor 10K HDD, the Intel X25-M responds with zero hitching while the WD VelociRaptor shows hitching seven percent of the time. This means gamers experience smoother visual transitions with Intel SSDs.
