It will log instances of "offensive" material shown on broadcast television, enable offended TV viewers to send email directly to local station owners and management, and/or send emails to the station's local and national advertisers. What happens to advertisers who ignore the email campaign and continue to sponsor shows that CleanTV deems offensive? - "If an advertiser continues to support offensive advertising, they will be targeted for local and national boycott. On the local level, newspapers are notified of the boycott and CleanTV volunteers will demonstrate at the advertiser's place of business until the advertiser decides to rescind their support of offensive programming."

LaCie Bigger Disk Extreme 2TB


LaCie Bigger Disk Extreme 2TB 04/06/2005 09:10 AM

lacie_biggerdiskextreme.jpgLaCie has a new network storage device called the Bigger Disk Extreme, with up to 2 terabytes of storage. The Firewire and USB 2.0 drives can even be daisy-chained to allow for RAID, either via striping or mirroring. A ton of storage and for not much money, at just $2,300.

That naming scheme seems like a dead end, though. You can't get more extreme than 'extreme.'

LaCie 1.6TB Bigger Disk Extreme


LaCie 1.6TB Bigger Disk Extreme 07/14/2004 09:59 AM

Lacie-Bigger-Disk-Extreme_3.jpg imageWhen you're giving the pros and cons of a 1.6TB (terabyte) hard disk array, like the LaCie Bigger Disk Extreme, and the only con is "bulky," then you're probably doing pretty good by my estimation. As a follow up to previous Bigger Disk external storage drives, there's no question the 1.6TB version is impressive, smashing together four 400GB drives into a single array that requires no special drivers to be used in Windows XP or Mac OSX. And it looks sufficiently swanky, too, if aluminum doesn't grate on you.
