    People have found how to write data...

  2. Re:DMCA on Smart Cards Vulnerable to Photo-Flash Attacks? · · Score: 1

    How is does this fall under the DMCA!?

    They are not circumventing ANY protective measures that guard against copyright data or are copyright themselves...a piece of plastic that covers the components is NOT a protective measure...

    Thats like saying that your case on your computer is a protective meause against hackers...

    Whats wrong with making an insecure or flawed device...when something like this happens the people who buy the product will be forced to bye a NEW product which is more secure...oohhh noo...those damn technological people just make more money dont they...

    No, there was no copyright protection...

    COPYRIGHT protection is only illegal...

    The data on the card most likely will not be copyright...

    Well how will the laptop makers keep raking in the money if you get rid of the nice fragile hard drives?

    I lost 1.3 gigs at the ond of my hard drive a couple days ago to bad clusters...i guess your NOt suppose to bang them against walls while they are running...

    A big bucket attached to the back of the LCD screen where the heatsink is located. You fill thes bucket with ice which contacts the heatsink directly, then the melted ice water goes into another bucket, perhaps on the floor...

    Great idea man! I can't wait to lug that thing around...

  9. Re:Heat Conductive Foam on Notebook Cooling Strategies · · Score: 1

    The reason you use water is that you can remove much more heat because it has physical transprotation to a wery large heat sink which makes the effective area of the heat sink much more than what you would get with a solid.

    And yes, fear is ussually the thing that keeps advances from happening...

  10. Re:Air intakes? on Notebook Cooling Strategies · · Score: 1

    My Toshiba (w/GeForceII :p) has the same problem. The fan on mine is near the back right edge, so I was thinking of making a little plastic piece or something that went over the fan intake at the bottom of the laptop and drew air from above the laptop so the problem your describing doesn't happen. The only problem I see is trying to make it stay. It would have to be as thin as the rubber feet on the bottom so it wouldn't cause the laptop to tilt....now i have something to do this weekend..heheh

  11. Re:Water and electronics, hmm... on Notebook Cooling Strategies · · Score: 1

    As long as there aren't any salts in the water, it's a insulator. Anyways, I'm sure they thought of this. The only spot it looks like it might leak is at the rubber connector. I don't see why the metal tubes or whatever they use inside would leak, besides bad design.

  13. Re:Water cooling can't be the answer. . . on Notebook Cooling Strategies · · Score: 1

    The heavy part is right, but the only force the pump will be fighting againts will be any "friction" (it probably has some other word having to do with viscosity) and momentum. For instance, if you have a vertical loop filled with water and a pump to circulate the water through the tube. The weight of the water on either side of the pump will be equal, so the pump will not have to struggle, only ight momentum and "friction".

  14. Re:anti-freeze on Notebook Cooling Strategies · · Score: 1

    anti freeze...it does what its named...it keeps the water in the radiator from freezing, not make things cooler.

    Just to let you know, they loose money on every printer they sell, at least the new ones. They make it on the ink.

    Has anyone heard of the PC?

    A PC with video out, a nice Sound Blaster 5.1 card, a network card, a TV tuner card, broadband, and a wireless mouse and keyboard will most likely cost less after a while of paying the probably bloated costs for the ms service and be a lot nicer. You could do anything with it.

    Of course, it's not as user freindly...well then just stick XP (shutter) on it...

    I work at a store that sells these things, and I can barely hold on to them.

    I see what your saying, and for that other guy, poo on you. Since copper cannot conduct magnetic fields, how would this be possible...they need to give more info...well, I have an internship at HP with a genius on rf (wich is half magnetic fields) so I will ask him, and see what he says...
