QNAP Introduces TS-239 Pro II And TS-439 Pro II NAS Drives
One thing is for sure: a QNAP drive looks like a QNAP drive. Much like LaCie, QNAP hasn't changed its motif for years now, and the latest two NAS drives definitely look exactly like the company's previous two NAS drives. Believe it or not, the duo we're talking about here today are both brand new, with 2 and 4 drive models boasting Intel's new D410 Atom CPU, iSCSI support and virtualization capabilities. The new TS-239 Pro II (2 drive model) and TS-439 Pro II (4 drive model) offer up to 8TB of storage, and both

Wikileaks Shuts Down Temporarily (?)
Wikileaks, which has been shuttered by litigation previously, now finds it self shut down by that all too familiar reason: lack of money.The site's mission statement is to allow whistleblowers to anonymously release government and corporate documents, "an uncensorable version of Wikipedia for untraceable mass document leaking and analysis." It's done that in the past, posting leaks from many sources. Now, it needs the help of the public. On their site, they say: To concentrate on raising the funds necessary

Chrome OS Concept Tablet Breaks Cover With Demo
With all of this iPad buzz stirring up the tech world over the past couple of weeks, Chrome OS has almost been forgotten. That may have something to do with the fact that Google has yet to officially release the netbook-centric operating system to the public, but still, you'd expect a company like Google to keep the details flowing about a forthcoming operating system. Today it seems we're getting exactly what you'd expect, in response to all the recent tablet fanfare.A while back,

Apple's iPad Costs Under $300 To Build, $499 To Buy
We have already discussed our hopes and dreams for the future of the iPad, and while we don't really feel that it's a homerun of a device in its current state, there's no doubt that the allure of Apple alone will help the company sell more than a few of these once then go on sale in under 2 months. The real question, however, is exactly how profitable these will be for Apple, given that the $499 price was seen as "low" by Steve Jobs and "high" from most everyone else that we've spoken to. According to a bill

Redbox and Movie Studios Going Head-To-Head Over Rental Rights
If it isn't Netflix making the news, it's Redbox. The go-to red DVD rental kiosk company is hitting it really big of late, and maybe too big. Essentially, this is the Netflix alternative when you just don't have time to wait a day or two for your newest movie to arrive, and the ease and low price associated with renting versus buying obviously has some suits at movie studios up in arms. Recently, Netflix agreed to wait 28 days after a Warner Bros. DVDs shelf release before renting it out. This basically forces

Samsung's 30nm DDR3 DRAM Chips Tout "Green" Features
Believe it or not, this isn't the first time we've heard the words "green" and "RAM" used in the same sentence. Frankly, it's kind of hard to believe that memory could actually be friendly to the environment, but when it's the buzzword of the year, major companies have little choice but to throw it in wherever it'll fit. Samsung Electronics has announced today the industry’s first 30-nanometer-class DRAM, which has just successfully completed customer evaluations in two gigabit (Gb) densities. DDR3 is becoming

Redbox and Movie Studios Going Head-To-Head Over Rental Rights
If it isn't Netflix making the news, it's Redbox. The go-to red DVDrental kiosk company is hitting it really big of late, and maybe toobig. Essentially, this is the Netflix alternative when you just don'thave time to wait a day or two for your newest movie to arrive, and theease and low price associated with renting versus buying obviously hassome suits at movie studios up in arms.Recently, Netflix agreed to wait 28 days after a Warner Bros. DVDsshelf release before renting it out. This basically forces consumers tobuy the DVD if they want it right away; otherwise, they'll have to waita month to see it via Netflix. We can understand this logic if you'reWarner Bros., but this definitely doesn't help the company's publicperception.
Now, things are being taken a step further with Redbox. Currently, Foxand Universal are reportedly refusing to sell DVDs to Redbox, which isa somewhat childish way of "forcing" users to either buy their DVDs orrent them through less convenient means. Redbox, in order tocircumvent the issue, has purportedly been sending out employees topurchase DVDs and then use them in rental kiosks. Like we said,childish. At any rate, Wal-mart and Target are both now putting a5-DVD-per-customer cap on bulk purchases, with Wally World setting thelimit for 28 days after release and Target setting its limit to oneweek. We have to believe that this will be tough or impossible toenforce, but it really leads to a much larger question.
Is the at-home entertainment industry finally at the breaking point? Weknew things were going to be different once Blockbuster startingslowing and Netflix started growing, and with digital distributionoutlets like Hulu and Vudu gaining ground, we think putting pressure onone-day rental kiosk companies seems a little short-sighted. Maybethese movie executives should embrace what's new--we wonder if they'veever considered creating a rival company to Redbox and cutting out themiddleman? Nah, that'd be too easy.

Apple's iPad Costs Under $300 To Build, $499 To Buy
We have already discussed our hopes and dreams for the future of theiPad, and while we don't really feel that it's a homerun of a device inits current state, there's no doubt that the allure of Apple alone willhelp the company sell more than a few of these once then go on sale inunder 2 months. The real question, however, is exactly how profitablethese will be for Apple, given that the $499 price was seen as "low" bySteve Jobs and "high" from most everyone else that we've spoken to.According to a bill of materials analysis by Brian Marshall ofBroadPoint AmTech, the cost of the goods inside of Apple's 16GBWi-Fi-only tablet is just $270.15. Apple plans to sell the device for$499. Of course, that gap doesn't take all of the R&D costs that ittook to create the iPad into consideration, but it's safe to say thatApple won't be losing money on the hardware as Sony has done with theirPlayStation 3 console. The report notes that the cost of building onecould be seen as $20 higher if you build in an allowance forunder-warranty service costs.
As you would probably expect, the most expensive part of the whole iPadwas the 9.7" IPS panel, which was listed at right around $100. The 16GBof flash storage was cited at $25, while the physical case was another$25. Amazingly, the A4 CPU that we're so excited about was listed atjust $15, which makes it very viable for a whole slew of upcominghandheld devices. These insanely high profit margins are par for thecourse for Apple, and in fact, the iPhone 3GS makes even more moneyper-unit-sold for the company than the iPad. This report also makesclear that Apple has some room to eventually lower the asking pricehere if sales don't go as well as expected, but we figure the companywill wait at least 6-12 months before pulling that lever.

Chrome OS Concept Tablet Breaks Cover With Demo
With all of this iPad buzz stirring up the tech world over the past couple of weeks, Chrome OS hasآ almost beenآ forgotten. That may have something to do with the fact that Google has yet to officially release the netbook-centric operating system to the public, but still, you'd expect a company like Google to keep theآ detailsآ flowing about a forthcoming operating system.آ Today it seems we'reآ getting exactly what you'd expect, in response to all the recent tablet fanfare.A while back, we heard that Chrome OS would only be made for certain systems that met certain specifications, namely netbooks that were tailor made to run the OS. This approach is similar to the one taken by Apple with regard to OS X, which will only operate on Apple-built systems. But as the "Year Of The Tablet" really gets going, it makes sense to think that Google would be interested in dipping into that sector. Tablets are certainly going to be a hot topic (and likely a money-maker) in 2010 and 2011, and Google would be silly to just sit it out while the others take advantage. We already witnessed the traditionally search-oriented company break new ground with their Android mobile OS, and if renders from the Chromium platform team, which is the foundation of Google Chrome and Chrome OS, have theirآ way, Chrome OS will eventually make landfall on tablets as well.
A few new design creations have floated out to the web, and naturally they have garnered quite a bit of attention. These showcase "user interface concepts" where it would be feasible to cram Chrome OS onto a tablet. When you think about, Chrome OS seems perfect for a tablet form factor. The system is designed to be lightweight, meaning that little power is needed to run it with as little overhead as possible, bogging down system resources. We've also seen that cheap, highly efficient chips are available for tablets courtesy ofآ NVIDIA's Tegra 2 CPU, and honestly, Chrome OS would give the iPad the biggest run for its money. Windows 7 still feels too "serious" an OS for something like a tablet, but Chrome OS is perfectly positioned to enter the market as-is and really make an impact. Who knows, one could imagine a situation where Google actually overtook Microsoft's OS market share lead in at least the tablet sector.آ Though that's a far reach at this pointآ obviously.آ We can't say that hell would then freeze over, but you never really know...
The Chromium team suggests that a screen of 5" to 10" is optimal for enjoying Chrome OS, and wouldn't you know that tablets, netbooks and MIDs/UMPCs all fit that category. It's rather exciting to think of the possibilities of a Chrome OS-based tablet. Couple a streamlined Google-based OS with NVIDIA's Tegra 2 and a design like this, and you really could have an iPad killer.
In related news, Google is making a serious push over in Europe to draw attention to their Chrome web browser. The reason? The EU is forcing Microsoft to install a "browser selection window" within new versions of Windows, so people will be forced to choose a browser (rather than just have Internet Explorer in there by default). It's the first major ad push for their web browser, and it just might signal a more serious effort toآ spread Chrome moreآ to the mainstream. Why would you want to spend money to increase market share of a free browser? If Chrome is a vital part of Chrome OS, you could see one thing leading to another. It's called the "halo effect," and Apple is definitely enjoying the spoils from people who buy iPods or iPhones and are then suddenly hooked into the Mac ecosystem. There's nothing stopping Google from attempting to recreate that same kind of magic, and we can say we'd be fairly bedazzled should a tablet like this hit the market anytime soon.

Wikileaks Shuts Down Temporarily (?)
Wikileaks, which has been shuttered by litigation previously, now finds it self shut down by that all too familiar reason: lack of money.The site's mission statement is to allow whistleblowers to anonymously release government and corporate documents, "an uncensorable version of Wikipedia for untraceable mass document leaking and analysis." It's done that in the past, posting leaks from many sources. Now, it needs the help of the public. On their site, they say:
To concentrate on raising the funds necessary to keep us alive into 2010, we have reluctantly suspended all other operations, but will be back soon.Although the site has won awards, including the 2008 Economist Freedom of Expression Award as well as the 2009 Amnesty International New Media Award, as it says, "these accolades do not pay the bills." The site adds "Nor can we accept government or corporate funding and maintain our absolute integrity."
We have received hundreds of thousands of pages from corrupt banks, the US detainee system, the Iraq war, China, the UN and many others that we do not currently have the resources to release. You can change that and by doing so, change the world. Even $10 will pay to put one of these reports into another ten thousand hands and $1000, a million.
We have raised just over $130,000 for this year but can not meaningfully continue operations until costs are covered. These amount to just under $200,000 PA. If staff are paid, our yearly budget is $600,000.
Just how long the site will remain offline is unclear. However, what is clear is that if the site doesn't manage to get some influx of capital, it's probably gone for good. Here's an interview that details how Wikileaks spends its money.

Microsoft Introduces Anti-Ghosting SideWinder X4 Keyboard
Microsoft's hardware division has really been on a roll lately, and theSideWinder X4 proves that the rolling won't be stopping anytime soon.Designed with hardcore gamers in mind (and probably in response to someof those other boards being released by Logitech and Razer), thisunit's stand-out feature is the anti-ghosting technology that's builtin. Developed by the Applied Sciences Group, this new technologyensuresgamers’ most complex key combinations will be recognized by thecomputer to keep the game in action.You'll also get macro recording, mode and profile switching, andadjustable backlighting, not to mention a rather sleek looking design.If you're curious how this will also help your performance, take alisten at this: the anti-ghosting tech allows gamers to press up to 26keys at once; because each key is scanned independently by the keyboardhardware, each keypress is correctly detected regardless of how many other keys are beingpressed at the same time. Basically, this helps you to execute comboswith an incredible amount of precision.
It'll be available next month for $59.95, and Amazon should list it for pre-order later this week.
The Applied Sciences Group, an interdisciplinaryresearch and development team that works across the MicrosoftEntertainment & Devices Division doing applied research forMicrosoft Hardware, Microsoft Surface and Xbox 360, developed theanti-ghosting technology with gamers in mind. The advanced technologytakes anti-ghosting to the next level by allowing gamers to press up to26 keys at once. Because each key is scanned independently by thekeyboard hardware, each key press is correctly detected regardless ofhow many other keys are being pressed at the same time. The SideWinderX4 Keyboard excels where other keyboards fail, letting users executekey combinations and taking full advantage of their skill and speed.
“We’realways looking for new and novel ways to enhance people’s interactionswith their PCs,†said Steven Bathiche, research manager of the AppliedSciences Group at Microsoft. “We know that ghosting can be a problemfor gamers, so we wanted to develop a way to eliminate this issue andimprove the overall gaming experience, and we’ve succeeded with the newanti-ghosting technology in the SideWinder X4 Keyboard.â€
Precise Gaming Keyboard With Advanced Features
TheSideWinder X4 Keyboard also offers more of the features gamers need tostay at the top of their game. Macro recording lets them stringtogether multiple moves into one press of a button, and the newautomatic macro repetition feature lets them repeat the macro over andover as needed with one key. Mode and profile switching also provideseasy ways to customize the keyboard for different games and users whileadjustable backlighting lets gamers select the lighting level thatmeets their needs.

E-readers: Not The Hoped-For Newspaper Industry Savior
While many in the newspaper industry hold out hope that the sudden onset of e-readers will be their savior, a study out of the University of Georgia cautions, well, caution.آ Professors of advertising Dean Krugman and Tom Reichert, and Barry Hollander, an associate professor of journalism in the UGA Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication, conducted the study over six months last year.Their conclusion, after holding in-depth interviews and hosting focus groups with Athens-area residents provided Kindles upon which to read the Atlanta Journal-Constitution? It's nice and all, but not really the best way to read news.
The main issue, for younger readers, was the device's lack of ability to do anything but act as an e-reader. Thus a different experiment, at Abilene Christian University in Texas, might have a different result. The school plans to have its student paper, The Optimist, optimized for the Apple iPad by Spring. The iPad, of course, has full internet connectivity and readers would be able to click through hyperlinks in stories and e-mail the story authors directly from the device.
The University of Georgia professors chose 2009 to do the study, because the Atlanta daily dropped the city from its home delivery circulation area last year.آ "We are in the first phase of the project which compares e-readers, such as the Kindle, to traditional newspapers and online delivery systems," Krugman said in a statement. "Our focus is on the way people consume media in a rapidly changing environment. Earlier, we employed similar methods when studying the growth of the multi-channel television environment."آ While everyone agreed the Kindle was "easy on the eyes," and reading on it was pleasant, it didn't really satisfy anyone. The younger readers, as already noted, disliked the single-use of it and said it seemed "old." Older readers liked it, but were disappointed some of their favorite features - crosswords and comics - weren't available on it.آ And, of course, there was the price: $489 for the Kindle DX. To read a newspaper. Which you can read for free online with your desktop or laptop or smartphone.
That's not to say that newspapers couldn't benefit from e-readers at all. If enough people bought them for reading books and magazines, newspapers could use them, too. But they seem unlikely, at this point, to be an industry savior, the professors believe.

What is Intel64 Technology?
Hello, I know that this question sounds kind of ignorant at first but with the age of my CPU I didnt belive it could support 64-bit. I have a Intel P4 650 3.4ghz processor (I know its quite old but spare me all that nonsence) and I recently noticed on Intel's website that it has a feature called Intel® 64(link below with all the deatails).
CPU Info page : http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=27482
Lately I have been looking at Windows 7 and I was wondering if this means that this chip would support a 64-bit OS. Since I am new to 64-bit technology I do not have much knowledge but from my basic understanding it is possible to use a 64-bit OS. Any clarification would be appreciated.

iGPUs on the Core i3's and i5's - yea or nay?
Personally I think that they are a good idea only if they keep them on the lower end or general use processors. My reasoning behind this is if you are a power user you are more than likely to install your own preferred graphics solution which in turn makes them unessesary on higher end processors. So what do you think about this trend, is it a good direction right now for Intel and are they implementing it well so far? Any other thoughts or opinions?
