Watching TV on Your PC Wherever You Are
Most Popular / Digital
Submitted By Browny 572 days ago
TV tuners for PCs have been around for quite some time, but I never really felt a need for one. Then, earlier this year, a gal from Xceive, which makes silicon tuners, sent me a USB-stick TV tuner from one of the companies they deal with. It worked surprisingly well, and after using it for a while, I thought better of TV on the PC. Even though my computer sits in a room with a TV, I found it very convenient to have a program—usually a baseball game—playing in a small window in the upper right corner of the display while I continued working in the remaining space, checking e-mail, surfing the web, and so forth. But after a couple of weeks, I had to return that item.

Intel ordered to produce evidence
Most Popular / Default
Submitted By Browny 572 days ago
A U.S. District Court has ordered Intel to produce documents and other evidence related to its business conduct outside of the U.S., according to a statement issued Thursday (Dec. 28) by Advanced Micro Devices. Intel downplayed the ruling Thursday, telling EE Times that it was narrowly focused on whether or not a Sept. 26 ruling by the court dismissing foreign commerce claims brought by AMD. The spokesman said the ruling did not speak to the merits or admissibility of the evidence.

Use Your PlayStation 3 To Cure Alzheimer's Disease

I seriously doubt you'll see a PS3 under the tree this Xmas (and if you did, someone proabably paid way over the RRP!!!). But if you are lucky enough to find one, and after you've grown bored of the lame launch titles you'll also find it could be a powerful tool in fighting protein-based diseases. Using distributed computing technology, Sony has teamed up with Stanford University's Folding@home project to take a quantum leap forward in simulation processing power.
