Everyone wants a networked home. Distributing audio,
video, and data to every room is a right, not a privilege. But
what if the abode only has Cat 5, or even worse? There are
alternatives, and some of them are ready for prime time.

Hey, Windows Notepad works exactly like a piece
of software we wrote in 1982, so everyone who is using Windows send
us $1,000 for a run-time license or we're going to sue you. Just
kidding! (It's actually $699, check or cash).

New Motherboards Herald Big
PC Change. We're leaving this 2004 article to show
that sometimes the best laid plans of even huge players like
Intel can fail. Computer users with sensitive ears have probably
noticed that newer computers have become significantly louder.
That droning noise, accompanied by a subtle whooshing of air is
caused by the proliferation of fans caused in turn by the
increased heat emitted by high performance processors,
motherboards, and other components. It is not uncommon to find
at least 3 and probably more fans in any new computer. This
situation is partly caused by the poor thermal design of the ATX
motherboards used in virtually all of today's computers. These
boards where designed over 10 years ago when engineers could not
have anticipated the heat generated by modern components.
Intel has devised a solution, named the
BTX motherboard,
which should begin shipping in the fourth quarter of 2004.
According to Intel, these boards, available in
three sizes: BTX, microBTX, and picoBTX, will provide several
benefits, including higher performance, lower noise levels,
lower cost, and smaller cabinet size. The main changes to the
board to facilitate these benefits are a better thermal airflow
design and greater surface area.
Until the boards and their related components
reach mass distribution levels, however, expect prices to be
considerably higher.

June
30, 2001. Our first publication was called "User's Manual" and began
publication in 1990, typeset using Xerox Ventura for DOS, and distributed
on PAPER, if you can believe it. Especially interesting is the report
on COMDEX in the March 1991 issue.
November - A Good Time to be in Las Vegas.
Check the upcoming events and
you will see that the Nevada gambling capital is also the computer
hot spot in the 11th month. Attend the IBM eServer conference on
the 5th through the 7th at the Rio, then come back for
COMDEX at the Convention Center
and Computer Digital Expo Conference
& Expo at the Mandalay Bay, both starting on the 17th. For the
first time in years Bill Gates and Scott McNeely will both be presenting
keynotes at COMDEX, assuming Mr. McNeely retains his position until
then.
