actually it won't help you to turn your phone off.
The technology in question is called 'passive radar' and it works whether your phone is switched on or not.
reminds me of 'good old days'
(-*very old days*-) actually when we scratched
the floppy disks (the big ones) with a knife
to produce 'bad blocks' and then to check for
the presence of those bad blocks in order to verify that the disk
was genuine..
--man those were the days..-
that was even before the C64 came out..Anyone remember the commodore PET ?
I've been running this on both a subnotebook and a desktop computer and I must say I'm very pleased with it. Especially KDE3.0 makes a difference. (KDE 2 never appealed to me) In addition it was a very pleasant experience to do the installs via NFS from a central machine with the CDROM drive - it went flawlessly.
Actually I'm definitely thinking about upgrading a few of my Redhat based systems as well..
To me as well Agilent is the *real* HP.
Remember, it all started back in '38 when Bill and
Dave designed their first little gadget which was definitely neither a computer nor a printer. It was an RF Oscillator - test and measurement equipment.
The other thing that strikes me is the parallel to
DEC: DEC used to be a great company as long as Ken Olsen was around. After he left the place things went down pretty fast. Same with HP.
Well, this is one of the rare cases where I do agree with a 'first post' statement: "This is not going to end well"...
I don't think a comparison to Dr. Mengele is appropriate. I would have to compare this to Dr. Frankenstein !!
Anyone that followed the evolution on research on cloning should be aware of the fact that this "technique" is far from being reliable..
The experiences gained in experiments with cloning animals should have showed clearly that it is not safe at all. The risk of generating a 'monster' is just too high still! - There are many research reports that show clearly that 'cloned beings' suffer from serious genetic anomalies and are very probable (premature ageing is one of them, immune system deficiencies another..) to an early death.
Please help to stop this irresponsible behaviour before it's too late !!
Well folks, looks like the Sony managers are thinking in the right direction: What is the long-term threat to the PS? Of course it's MS's xbox.
And enabling linux on the PS is just a logical step - because: It's MS who is the competior.
And what is MS's only strength today? No, it's not MS windows by itself, its the combination of Windows and MS office. So what is the threat to the PS?
I can tell you: Eventually MS will come out with some sort of "Word for the xbox" or stuff..
Now, would you consider that a possibility?
Just wondering..
And what would be the consequences for the market..
Doesn't look like "antigravity" or whatever to me:
If it were a gravitational effect, the force would have a direction (i.e. always upwards).
I strongly doubt that it does.
As you can see from the other experiments on the authors pages, it also works horizontally so simply put, this asymmetrical capacitor just produces some mechanical thrust. In whatever direction I would assume !

- not sure if they were joking though ;)
Now, considering that the techology of maglev trains is still in its infancy, it's pretty hard to imagine where it will be in let's say 50 years..!
An interesting link for some ideas of the development of future maglev technologies is for example here .
For a more in-depth explanation of the Yamanashi Test Line Maglev trains' technology check out this link. Quite interesting stuff!
Simply put the whole of the PC inside!
It's 7 CDs + 1 DVD + a booklet

well, there was no way for DEC t avoid the merger: it was a HOSTILE takeover by Compaq!

What else would you expect Germans to teach little Aibo dogs? - Soccer of course!
The World Championship this year is to be in Fukuoka Japan.
Have fun!

I like the one with the CDs !!
so what do you mean with next ? Next or next ?
