Intel Sheds Light on Fiber Optics 02/18/2004 07:51 AM

Researchers show off a new, lower-cost chip that can switch light on and off at blinding speed. This could be a boon for fiber networks. Amit Asaravala reports from San Francisco.

For nearly two decades, twisted-pair cable has been the medium of choice for office networking and has evolved to accommodate ever-increasing data speeds. In recent years, however, fiber-optic cable has gained popularity because of its high-bandwidth capacity, reliability and immunity to electrical and radio-frequency interference and crosstalk.

Symantec Sheds Light


Symantec Sheds Light 05/26/2004 03:11 PM
I?ve reported on this before-Symantec Goes to SEA with On and PowerQuest Symantec Corp is looking to make use of the systems and storage management technologies it acquired with On Technology Corp and PowerQuest Corp in 2003 through its expanded Symantec Enterprise Administration business unit.Read more?But, this article defintely sheds more light on the rollout of Symantec?s acquired software. What is glaringly obvious, at least the way I read the article, is that we?d all better forget about PowerQuest?s former products and things that always have been Symantec?s. like Ghost, and start searching for a viable replacement. The name Acronis comes to mind.Symantec?s repurposing of the whole lineup to aim at enterprise markets makes it unlikely that any of us mere mortals will be able to #1) Afford the new software, and #2) Find somewhere to buy it retail.It?s a great shame, because PowerQuest?s tools, at the least, have become darn near indispensible over the years. Having run into some rough edges and problems with Acronis products in their earlier versions, I?m hoping that they now have solid and stable software to offer.We?re going to need it.

Service Pack 2 sheds light on Longhorn


Service Pack 2 sheds light on Longhorn 08/09/2004 04:35 PM
With the release of Microsoft’s Service Pack 2 for Windows XP later this month, users will be re-evaluating their upgrade plans.

Existing Windows XP desktops are likely to receive the SP2 update, while Windows 2000 users have the choice of moving directly to XP SP2 or waiting until Longhorn, the next major Windows release arrives. Service Pack 2 is widely viewed as a significant update, offering greater security and bundling more functions into the operating system. More importantly, it will offer a taste of things to come from Microsoft: the eagerly-awaited operating system codenamed Longhorn.

This, the next version of Windows, has been described by Microsoft chairman and chief software architect Bill Gates as the biggest product release for Microsoft since Windows 95. "[Longhorn] is going to be a very big release: the biggest release of this decade," he told a developers conference in October 2003. "We are tackling three different areas: the fundamentals - that means the security - the auto-installation and applications not interfering with each other."

SkyPort Fiber Optic Skylight System


SkyPort Fiber Optic Skylight System 04/18/2005 10:04 AM

skyport_luminaries.jpgDirect from Sweden, Parans shows off their Skyport system: light-collecting panels which you install on your roof, allowing them to feed a remote part of your house with the purest of natural light. The Skyport system uses SunWire—"light transporting cable" (read: fiber optics)—to bring sunlight to its connected "luminaries". Björks, as they're called, are specially designed to generate a light output of up to 4,000 lux, presumably on a clear day. The SunWire allows for you to distribute sunlight up to three stories down into a building and the Björks come in three different shapes, letting you maximize light output for a particular room's layout. Pricing and availability are heretofore a mystery, so you'll have to wait for now.

sack_buildings.jpgBringing me back to the days when I used to play C&C: Red Alert, a few engineers in London have devised a way to quickly erect cement structures in the field. The "building in a bag" is essentially "a sack of cement-impregnated fabric" that, with a little air and water, inflates into a Nissen-shaped structure that dries and is ready for use in twelve hours. Meant to act as a stronger solution than a tent while remaining at least relatively portable, a 500-pound sack will inflate to form a structure with 172 square feet of floor space. At only $2,100, "the volume of the sack controls the water-to-cement ratio," so you don't need to fuss with hard-to-read measuring cups while trying to build a new mess hall. Wired has the full story and a diagram of the building process.

Let our cities be our swamps and our buildings our jungles After witnessing the Pentagon's inconclusive retreat from both Fallujah and Najaf without achieving the "success" of pacification or elimination of the local resistance, it seems that apart from incidentally killing several thousand Iraqis, causing lots of property damage, uniting Shias and Sunnis, and promo ting minor clerics into major resistance leaders, today's Pentagon forces are quite ineffectual within dense urban areas. I am reminded of the words of the ex-Deputy PM of Iraq, Tariq Aziz, on the eve of the US invasion of Iraq: People say to me, 'You are not the Vietnamese. You have no jungles and swamps' ... I reply, 'Let our cities be our swamps and our buildings our jungles.'.
