Microsoft: Impaled on the Horns of a
Dilemma
03/11/2003 01:22 AMAs Windows is one of Microsoft's main two cash cows, Microsoft
can't afford for consumers and businesses to stop buying Windows
desktops until Longhorn arrives. Until then, what should Redmond do?
Come out with a "Shorthorn" stopgap release? Slash XP prices? (Since
Microsoft likes to point out that "free" doesn't matter when computing
total cost of ownership, why not try giving away Windows, a la open
source?) -- Mary Jo Foley

What's huge,
slow, and capable of hauling up to 400 tons of bullshit? While my
first response would probably be Slashdot, too, in this case we're describing the
Liebherr T 282B truck, a 224 ton monster with a massive
3650-horsepower diesel engine. New Scientist has an interview with
Liebherr R&D head Francis Bartleby in which he drops a load of tasty T
282B trivia, like the fact that the huge diesel engine actually
generates electricity to power two electric drive motors, and the
story about the time a driver of one of the big trucks accidentally
crushed a normal-sized service truck and didn't even notice.

New Largest Known Prime Number
06/02/2004 05:29 AMNew Largest Known Prime Numberhttp://www.mersenne.org/24
036583.htmJosh Findley, a volunteer in the
Mersenne.org research project called the Great Internet Mersenne Prime
Search (GIMPS), has discovered the largest known prime number. Findley
used his home PC and free software by George Woltman and Scott
Kurowski as part of an international grid of 240,000 networked
computers in virtually every time zone of the world. The new number,
expressed as 2 to the 24,036,583th power minus 1, has 7,235,733
decimal digits and was discovered May 15th. It is nearly a million
digits larger than the previous largest known prime number, and
belongs to a special class of rare prime numbers called Mersenne
primes . The discovery marks only the 41st known Mersenne prime, named
after Marin Mersenne , a 17th century French monk who first studied
the rare numbers 300 years ago. Mersenne primes are most relevant to
number theory, but most participants join GIMPS simply for the fun of
having a role in real research - and the chance of finding a new
Mersenne prime.

Largest Free Network?
Largest Free Network?
08/03/2004 02:15 PMPanera claims a great title: largest free Wi-Fi hotspot network: In a
press release today, Panera says its network of 325 free Wi-Fi
hotspots is the largest such free network. They plan to have 500
stores out of 637 current outlets unwired within 12 months. An
additional 140 to 150 stores will open this year, and Wi-Fi is planned
as part of their design. The press release has metrics on performance:
...the average total online time per bakery/cafe has increased
three-fold over the last twelve months. Internal research indicates
that of the hundreds of thousands of customer accesses over the last
year, the average connect time is one hour. Interestingly, there's no
dollars-to-time ratio: are folks spending 10 percent more who use
Wi-Fi? 100 percent more? Less? We don't know, but we must expect that
they do. (Update: Here's a story from Mobile Pipeline that quotes the
chairman and CEO saying, "Offering free Wi-Fi Internet access is
keeping our customers in our stores longer -- primarily during
off-peak hours -- and bringing them back more often," he said. Still
no dollars, but at least an affirmative statement.) Off-peak hours is
the mantra of the retail hotspot establishments: they're eager to fill
seats when they're empty. Nominations welcome for other free hotspot
networks that rival Panera's, but I think they may have the claim.
Best Western and other hotel chains are rolling out free high-speed
Internet access, but they are generally available only to guests, and
often incorporate a lot of in-room wired service except in newer
installations....

World's Largest Book Created
World's Largest Book Created
12/16/2003 01:46 PMDon't you just hate those books that are just a little too large to
fit into your bookshelf? You have to put them on their side, or stick
them somewhere else, just because a publisher decided to make the book
too damn big. Well, now someone at MIT has made a book so big it's
not likely to fit on any bookshelf. It probably won't fit on any
coffee table, either. In fact, it's now been
certified as the largest book ever created, weighing in at a
somewhat stunning 133 pounds. Each of the 112 pages are five feet by
seven feet. Apparently, the book costs $2,000 to make, and is being
sold for $10,000 complete with a nice display easel to solve the
bookshelf problem (they've already sold about two dozen). Money from
the sale of the book will go to a charity that is building schools in
Cambodia and Bhutan. A more cynical person might note that with all
the trees that were needed to make such a book, they probably cleared
a nice spot in the field for such schools. And, yes, the book,
Bhutan: A Visual Odyssey Across the Last Himalayan
Kingdom is available at Amazon (though, currently out of
stock).

Largest PKI
02/19/2004 10:13 AMImplementing a Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) on any scale is a
challenging, politically-charged task for an IT professional. Even
though a working PKI is an important piece of a complete security
package for an organization, the lack of interest, misunderstanding,
laziness, and downright paranoia of the typical user population can
turn a PKI effort into just another morass of documents for which the
contractors have been paid and long ago moved on to some new revenue
channel. Given the dismal success rate, it's difficult to imagine a
successful PKI, not for hundreds or even thousands of users, but for
millions. Yet, that seems to be what the Department of Defense (DoD)
has accomplished in their Common Access Card (CAC) project - the new
identification cards being issued to all US military personnel. To
date, CAC PKI project has issued and manages more than six million
digital certificates and corresponding smart cards. As someone
who has implemented a PKI for a large, diverse organization, I can say
that the IT professionals who worked to make the CAC project a success
are entitled to pat themselves on the back, but it's also clear that a
few problems remain.

www.newscientist.com/news/news.jsp?id=ns99994438A
26-year-old graduate student in the US has made mathematical history
by discovering the largest known prime number. The new number is
6,320,430 digits long. It took just over two years to find using a
distributed network of more than 200,000 computers. Michael Shafer a
chemical engineering student at Michigan State University used his
office computer to contribute spare processing power to the Great
Internet Mersenne Prime Search (GIMPS). The project has more than
60,000 volunteers from all over the world taking part.
"I
had just finished a meeting with my advisor when I saw the computer
had found the new prime," Shafer says. "After a short victory dance, I
called up my wife and friends involved with GIMPS to share the great
news."
Prime numbers are positive integers that can only be
divided by themselves and one. Mersenne primes are an especially rare
type of prime that take the form 2 p-1, where p is also a prime
number. The new number can be represented as 220,996,011-1. It is only
the 40th Mersenne prime to have ever been found.
