not really very much satisfied with them, they very much agree that its just the beginning and there
is a long way to go... Here are the list of Products.... 1. Photosynth - This is something
which many people looked for... It does comaprison of photos and enables people...

This is not about computer but it is still electronic. Has anyone have seen the Anti-Crash
Technology in RC planes yet? It uses sensors to "sense" the ground-and-sky orientation of the plane
so newbies crash less often. I just have my plane today it ACT works awesome. It's like an
autopilot system preventing me from crash and burn!...

Micrsoft confirmed what we've already expected. The new-coming explorer IE 7 will only be
compatible with windows XP and newer. The two reasons why old dinosaurs that still use Windows 2000
and lower won't be able to use the new IE are: 1. state in which is the extended support of
Windows 2000 and 2. mostly of technical nature (IE 7 is goin to have a few security updates and
imporvements, which bases on the functionality of the new XP SP2 and this is the reason for its
incompatibility with other versions of Windows) Source: Slashdot ...

http://labs.live.com/photosynth/blogs/ It's an interesting idea, but I really don't see
the application behind it. I mean where do you go with this. Is it a new way or browsing the web, a
new way to look at photos, a new way to waste our time and bandwidth and processing power? Maybe
it's me, but I just don't get it....

So has anyone downloaded and tried this yet?
http://www.microsoft.com/office/preview/be...en/default.mspx It's the entire suite for free
and it's really cool. It's such a huge difference from the Office 2000 I've been using
for years. It's a big 450 mb download but I think it's worth it. You have to log in to
download it but all you need is a hotmail account and you don't even need to give them legit
info or anything. I just put in garbledy gook for all fields besides email. The installer is fairly
smart and will remove previous versions...

QUOTE The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office agreed earlier this week to a request by the Public
Patent Foundation to review a controversial patent that Forgent Networks has been attempting to
enforce through lawsuits with dozens of companies, including Adobe, Microsoft, Apple, Sun, RIM and
Google. Forgent acquired the rights to the JPEG compression patent through a 1997 purchase of
Compression Labs, however it did not start asserting its ownership and demanding licensing for the
patent until a year ago. Full article : http://www.betanews.com/article/USPTO_to...

Virus writers have adopted a new tactic to try to make sure their malicious programs reach as many
victims as possible. Instead of releasing viruses intermittently, many creators of worms and trojans
are pumping them out with increasing frequency. For a while new variants of one virus, called
Mytob, were appearing every hour. Some viruses appear in hundreds of different guises. The variants
are appearing far faster than firms can analyse them and update their scanners to spot the malicious
code. The tactic seems to be paying off. Currently, Mytob variants are filling...
