Wired or Wireless Home Connections?
August 12, 2008. By Greg Hill.
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. 

The Fresh Baked Take on the News

"Web services aren't the next big thing, the next big thing is still being discovered in someone's basement in Colorado, I think."  Yvonne Divita in ram (Reseller Advocate Magazine).

FreshBaked.Com ® has been publishing for over 10 Years!

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.
