    Ct (german magazine), in an older article from May has proven with simple but effective tools that all existing biometry systems can be fooled ! Here is the article in German and here a google translation. I would not trust airports using that procedure. A human identifying you is always much safer...

  6. AMD releases the 2400+ and 2600+ Athlons tommorrow by spiro_killglance · · Score: 5, Informative · on AMD Opteron "Hammer" Preview

    The NDA isn't quite up until 2400 USA (eastern? pacific?, don't ask me i don't know) time, but look at, Here

    Expect reviews from the usual suspects.

    AMD have modified there ratings a little so as
    to keep the model numbers fair compared with
    the newer faster Northwood pentium 4s. So while
    the old rating system would have had 2400+ as a 1933MHz Athlon, and 2600+ as a 2066Mhz Athlon, in
    fact the 2400+ is the first 2GHz Athlon while the
    2600+ clocks in a 2133MHz.

    We can expected newer Athlons to be released later
    with 333MHz Front Side buses, and later 512MB of cache. Even when Hammer comes out, AMD will still to selling Athlons for around a year afterwoods, the Athlon will move done the low end to replace the Duron, and thats going give the celeron a real kicking. In fact Intel seems to have blown
    there wad completely, with nothing to compete with
    the Hammer until there Prescott strink of the
    P4 in Q4 2003.

    I know, this is not about copyrights but about trademarks, so mod me OT.

    There is a VERY interesting case in Germany (yes, this is in europe): a company held a trademark of the name 'explorer' without having a product or anything. They made microsoft to pay (only) around $/Euro 90.000 and sued a couple of companies for abusing their trademark (i.e. the publisher heinz heise verlag for selling cd's with their magazines with a software called FTPExplorer on it).

    The Oberlandesgericht of Cologne now canceled this trademark (translated by google) because it never was used for serious reasons but only to make money by sueing other companies.

    Exactly the same thing happened (transleted by uhm... you know.) to a patent that covered the creation of human and animal embryos. After they realized what they did, the simply removed the patent after a LOUD shout out of politicians, medics and uh, guys like me.
