AMD lowers third quarter forecast amid weakening demand

It now expects revenue for the third quarter (ending Saturday, September 25) to be between 1% and 4% lower than the $1.65 billion it reported in the second quarter.

HTML5 local storage could track your surfing habits
Web surfers generally applaud the changes coming down the pike with HTML5, but last week Wired reported on a potentially unpleasant privacy loophole on mobile phones involving the format's local storage, a feature originally designed to allow offline browsing and faster refreshing of common pages. A lawsuit has followed against Ringleader Digital, an online data collection and advertising firm, alleging that the company is using the feature to create "pseudo-cookies" that are stored locally and can track browsing history. They are not removable using standard cookie cleanup methods and are created by ads placed on the mobile versions of some high-traffic websites including CNN Money, The Travel Channel, and Merriam-Webster.

Dell intros new all-in-one PC, updates Zino HD specs
Setting its crosshairs on the competition, Dell has launched new budget-friendly all-in-one and compact desktop PCs in time for the holiday shopping season. The $799 (starting price) Inspiron One 23 competes with HP's TouchSmart series, and to some degree, Apple's iMac. Key features include a 23-inch multi-touch display that is paired with a new touch interface called "Stage," which provides easy access to applications, music, videos, photos and Internet services like Netflix. The press release shied away from detailing hardware specs, but said the Inspiron One 23 would be available this weekend.

Blockbuster declares bankruptcy, will stay in business
Unsurprisingly, the struggling Blockbuster movie rental empire has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the United States, nearly 25 years after it opened its first store. The once-mighty video rental chain won't be, however, closing its 3,000 remaining stores, DVD vending kiosks, by-mail, or digital services, yet. It has struck a deal with its bondholders for a refinancing plan; more than 80 percent of its secured creditors gave their approval. Under the plan, Blockbuster's debt would be reduced 11-fold.
