If one were to conduct a survey of technology publications over the past decade or so, it's a good bet there would be at least one instance in each of those years in which someone declared that "this is the year of biometrics." Full of promise but long constrained by a diverse set of obstacles, biom...
The European Commission has asked major Hollywood movie studios to provide information about their choices of high-definition DVD formats as part of an informal examination for the possibility of antitrust activity. The two competing standards -- HD DVD and Blu-ray Disc -- have each won exclusive su...
Gateway, in conjunction with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, announced the recall of some 14,000 notebook computer batteries. Laptop PCs with the defective batteries can overheat and pose a fire hazard for consumers, the organizations said. "Gateway is working with its suppliers to cove...
Last week, I was on the road at Microsoft's TechEd conference and had a chance to chat with a number of my peers, some Microsoft customers, and a large number of Microsoft executives. Things are changing rapidly at that company: The Windows group is largely new, Bill Gates is mostly gone, and the ...
Once a feisty competitor that beat Intel to market with processor innovations and lower costs, chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices has lately slumped a bit. That could change, as Japanese electronics giant Toshiba confirmed Tuesday it plans to use AMD processors in some of its laptops. The deal would p...
Hard-core gadgeteers never need a rationalization to buy a new piece of hardware, but for those who need at least a tissue of temperance when seeking new tech, the introduction of Microsoft's new operating system, Vista, is an invitation to splurge. Where should you start your shopping? How about a ...
IBM has developed a method of assembling microchips using nanotechnology, the company stated Thursday, a potentially revolutionary process for insulating tiny wires by allowing them to assemble themselves around air gaps. This advance could make next-generation chips dramatically faster and more ene...
IBM is working to turn its System z mainframe computer into an online 3-D gaming platform, and it's doing it by putting advanced technology used in video games into a mainframe. The idea is to merge the massive transaction and account-based scalability of the mainframe with the graphics power of the...
Toshiba on Monday announced it is adding a new high-capacity portable hard drive to its already well-established product roster of televisions, laptops and DVD players. The Toshiba USB 2.0 Portable External Hard Drive, which comes in capacities ranging from 100 GB to 200 GB, has the largest capacity...
Last week was painful to watch. Don Imus made a statement that is common -- but inappropriate coming from an old white man -- and got shot for it, repeatedly, and is now off the air. This dovetailed with a now broad effort to create a code of conduct for the Web somewhat similar to what the broadcas...
Although Samsung has long been one of the major supporters of the Blu-ray Disc format, the South Korean electronics maker has decided to now straddle the fence in the format war -- it announced it will sell a player capable of supporting both Blu-ray and rival HD DVD format. The model BD-UP5000 will...
The organization responsible for developing security measures for next-generation DVDs said it has plugged a hole that allowed hackers to locate and unlock encryption keys for movies released on HD DVD and Blu-ray discs. The Advanced Access Content System License Administrator has responded to recen...
Last week, there were three events worth talking about, but I'll mention one of them only in passing. The first was the entry of the Xbox Elite into the market, positioned against Sony. It is almost a great product -- and for new buyers, it may be good enough -- but Microsoft could have hit a home r...
A state-of-the-art IBM manufacturing plant located in East Fishkill, N.Y., has become the first facility to produce the 65 nanometer Cell Broadband Engine, the chip maker announced Monday. The Cell chip, developed through a $400 million partnership between IBM, Toshiba and Sony, is the technology un...
