Ossur Power Knee







Ossur Power Knee

Ossur Power Knee 03/30/2005 09:10 AM

ossue_powerknee.jpgProsthetic limbs have comb a long way lately, but there are still limitations when it comes to things like climbing stairs or other activities where the prosthetic itself needs to replace some muscle power. The new aptly-named Power Knee, developed by Victhom and marketed by Ossur, aims to address that issue by putting not only a powered motor inside the prosthetic, but a bunch of sensors to predict in exactly what way the limb will need to react. My description is fairly boring for something so exciting, so maybe you should check out the videos that show a man wearing one climbing stairs (okay, that sounds boring, too, but it's not, if you have a heart). (Thanks, J!)

Beach Boys, "Pet Sounds"

* "This is not the Beach Boys. It can't be. Why? No beach songs! I thought it was some kind of joke. All 'Pet Sounds' offers is the opportunity to hear Brian Wilson whine for forty minutes, backed by elevator music."
* "It's full of bland harmonizing by guys that could barely swim."
* "The lyrics consist of commonplace rhyming conversational prose, totally lacking in imagery, metaphor and anything else that separates verse from poetry."

We're really appreciate it if you'd take 60 seconds and give us a vote (about 2/3 of the way down, on the right). We know we've had our problems, like the time we walked in on you with the sock, but we really hope you can put that behind and help us out.

Plus some crazy people decided to offer a whole bunch of prizes in our category and I'd like to have them all for myself. Seriously! It just takes a second (you don't have to vote in every category if you don't want to).

Mac - Power + x86?


Mac - Power + x86? 06/05/2005 11:19 PM

CNET has set the Internet abuzz by reporting that Apple is going to jump from Power to x86 silicon. I think it’s believable, porting the software doesn’t seem like that big a deal. Here’s a personal sidelight: Last year I was chatting with a very senior IBM person that I’d just met, who smirked at my PowerBook and said “You know, we make more money on every one of those than Apple does.” Remember, he was real senior and we’d just met. Those kinds of stories are for sure going to get back to Apple and they’re going to be real irritating. Look at it this way: once Apple makes the first big step away from Power, if they don’t like Intel’s attitude or Intel’s performance or Intel’s pricing, they can walk across the street to AMD. Or for that matter back to IBM, who might have become a little more humble and hungry. [Update: Several people have written to point out that the IBM person was probably wrong, since the G4 in the PowerBooks is made by Motorola/Freescale, not IBM. But I think the point about attitude stands.]
