| | Recently Japan has developed a computer which has cameras fitted around them. These cameras are designed to identify finger tips and to measure where the fingers are pointing on the screen. All you have have to do is point a finger ( there is no need to touch the screen) and then that program will start. You can also use hand gestures, but the variety of gestures that can be used is not clear yet.

Microsoft Readies Early Preview Of New Parallel-computing Tool

What Would You Do For Money?
Would you cut one of your fingers for 1m dollars? (24) Recently I thought about the value of money in our lives and then this question came on my mind:
Would you cut one of your fingers for 1 million dollars? And if not for one million dollars what
would be the price you would do it for? My personal opinion on this is, that most people will say
that they would not do it for any amount of money. But is this really what they would choose to do
if they had the chance? I think not and I'm not entirely sure what I would do. Tell me what you
think about this.....

Is Simply Being Fat A Disablity?
(28) I think obesity is a big problem in America. Obese people think simply because they are fat they
suffer from a disability more than a simple eatting disorder. It makes me sick to walk through
Walmart and see the elderly being forced to wait in line or walk while the fat ppl. ride in the
power scooters because they think they are too good to walk. It also makes me angry when you get a
close parking place and they flip you off or throw a hissy fit because they feel it's rude
towards them because they have to walk further. Obese ppl. want to say that they can not help t....

Using Fingers Instead Of Credit Cards
(35) I saw this on the news the other day and they were talking about stores that take your fingerprint
instead of using credit cards. There are a couple thousand stores I think there are that do this.
Instead of swiping your credit card you leave your finger print and the computer searches your
finger print in the system to match it up with the person. I think there are a couple flaws in the
system though. People will go around cutting people's fingers off to go to an ATM and steal all
their money. I think that there should be a PIN number for each card to help keep....

Questions About Switching To Computing Host
(1) I am looking to switch to computing Host, because I maintain a web site for my school and my dad
will kill me if it goes bye-bye in the summer (when I am in camp). I heard the following things: 1)
I can have my account here upgraded to a paid Computing Host plan from my original Trap17 free plan.
2) I could have my account switched to the dedicated Computing Host server. And I have the
following questions: 1) Are the above 'hearings' valid? 2) Will all of my addon domains
remain as is? 3) In general and follow-up to question 2: Do I have to change my nameserver ....

What Is Distributed Computing?
(15) Distributed computing is computing distributed among computers to solve a huge task. Usually you
have to download a client, and your computer's idle time is when you make this happen. This is
neat because you can walk the streets saying "I helped with MIT reserching effects on protein!"

What Is Quantum Computing?
An essay (7) I wrote this essay for a science writing contest/school about quantum computing. It's a little
long for a forum post, but I think I put a lot of information in there. Enjoy! Moore’s Law
states that every 18 months, the number of transistors in a computer chip doubles, thereby
increasing the speed of the computer (Arthur, 2005). In order for computer chip manufacturers to
fit all of the extra transistors, the transistors themselves must become exponentially smaller.
However, there must be a limit: Transistors cannot keep shrinking in size forever, and some sci....

Grid Computing
Distributed Computing (0) QUOTE Driven by increasingly complex problems and propelled by increasingly powerful technology,
today's science & businesses world is as much based on computation, data analysis, and

exponentially, computational resources are failing to keep up with what user’s demand of them. What
many term the "Grid" offers a potential means of surmounting these obstacles to progress. Grid
computing is increasingly being viewed as the next phase of distributed computing. Built on per....
Computing Host's New Plans
some questions/comments (2) The comments: Wow. Had I seen those plans like 2 months earlier I'd have signed up for them.
SIGH now I am stuck with a 1 year contract... And the 30 days are up so I can't get a refund if
I transfer out. But it's good so far so never mind. Next year maybe. The questions: What's
the difference between Basic/Premium? Why can you only pay monthly for Premium? Are all the features
the same? That's it I guess. Oh and.. Is there a forum for CH hosted users? It -is- okay to

Norton Ghost Tutorial
Good computing practice with Norton Ghost. (12) I'd like to tell you about a great tool called Norton Ghost, its a backup tool, but unlike other
similar tools it really makes an image of your whole system in its current state, meaning your OS,
drivers, settings, apps, games, etc is all backed up but not like file for file but everything in
its current state, meaning if I'd make a back up today, and tomorrow I tested a whole bunch of
software which caused my system to act funny, I'd just restore yesterday's image and it
would be exactly as if it were yesterday, you're saying what about system restor....
