<h3>The Ubiquitous Indestructible Pen Drive</h3>
<p> By: Roberto Sedycias</p>
<p>The pen drive or the USB drives are storage devices that store memory and it is coupled with universal serial bus connector. It is characterized by its small size, featherweight and by its qualities of removable as well as rewrite ability.</p>
<p>The pen drive has an edge over other storage tools   in particular the floppy disk. These are more compact, swifter, have a bigger capacity to hold data and above all are more reliable because there are no mobile parts involved. The design too is durable. Usually computers are packaged without floppy but pen drives are available at all PC and lap top outlets. The pen drive uses the USM mass storage standard and is supported by the latest operating systems like Windows, Mac, Linux and others.</p>
<p>The pen drive or flash drive consists of a small circuit board made of plastic or metal. Recently rubber casings are being used. This makes it convenient to carry around the pen drive in the pocket like a key chain. A cap protects it. It can be connected directly to the computer.</p>
<p>To get access to the stored data the pen drive has to be linked to the computer either by plugging it into a built in USB host controller or into a USB Hub. Pen drive becomes active only then   drawing its lifeline from the computer.</p>
<p>The pen drive is the product of combination and integration of old technologies with new features like mini size, low cost and minimum power consumption. The memory has its base on previous EPROM expertise. The latest ones use state of the art technology. Contents can be erased electrically without the use of UV light and the erasing is total. But the later models improved upon this and partial erasure became possible. It required a lot of support from the computer so that it can be said that the latest pen drives are miniature version of the microprocessor system.</p>
<p>With the new model of pen drives it became possible to serially access memory storage together with the development of small and yet high speed (using low power) systems that became integrated in mini compact systems. Many MP3 players can be used as a pen drive.</p>
<p>Many claim to have been pioneers in the manufacture of the first pen drives. Trek first marketed it in 2000. The next generation of flash or pen drives have USB 2.0 connectivity.</p>
<p>There is no limit to various shapes and sizes of pen drives   one even looks like a delectable piece of sushi! Too much of designing however leads to bulkiness. Pen drives have been integrated with other items that people carry or wear like   watches, pens and even a pen knife. Some even look like bricks and others like toys.</p>
<p>Pen drives are being widely used and this raises the point of security. For this biometrics and encryption are becoming the norm. Pen drives are popular with those who deal with system and network administration for configuration, system maintenance including trouble shooting and recovery. In the PC repair field the pen drive has become indispensable.</p>
<p>Pen drives are practically immune to scratches and dust problems. This makes them ideal for transferring data from one location to another unit, like from home to office and vice versa. The object is almost ubiquitous. It means it will work with any computer. The storage capacity is dense while on the other hand power consumption is very low. No additional device is required to read from and write on pen drives. Pen drives can even survive chewing attacks from puppies and submergence in the washing machine. It is amazing how a small device can be of such great use!</p>
<p>What more can be desired?</p>

<h3>Features Of The Nintendo wii Game Console</h3>
<p>By: Roberto Sedycias</p>
<p>Nintendo Wii, the seventh generation video game systems, was launched by Nintendo in September 2006. The Wii video system pronounced <code>we</code> gather people of all ages and experience, together to play. The evocative name coupled with classic features, Nintendo Wii, has caused lot of ripples in the video game industry and it targets to broader section of people than occupied by Sony<code>s PlayStation 3 and Microsoft</code>s Xbox360. As of December 31st, 2007, 20.13 million of Nintendo Wii has been sold.</p>
<p>The current package includes the following: Wii console, remote with strap, one Nunchuk, AC adaptor, composite A/V cable, console stand, sensor bar and stand, two AA batteries and sports game.</p>
<p>The most extraordinary feature of this gaming console is the wireless controller, the Wii Remote and the WiiConnect 24. Measuring 1.7 x 6.2 x 8.5 inches (44 x 157 x 215.4 mm), and weighing only 2.6 lbs (1.2 kg), Nintendo wii comes as the smallest home gaming console and lightest among the three major players of the seventh generation gaming consoles.</p>
<p>The Wii has a powerful 512 MB internal flash memory, two number USB 2.0 ports and a slot provided for SD memory expansion. The SD card can be used for a variety of purpose, for example, as a back up for saved game data and downloaded virtual console games, for uploading photos, for creating customized music in the game, etc.</p>
<p>The heart of the system<code>s technology is a processing chip developed along with IBM and graphics chip from ATI. The processor chip is named as</code>Broadway<code>and the graphics chip is named as</code>Hollywood`. It uses a single, self loading media bay that plays both Nintendo Gamecube discs as well as 12 centimeter optical discs required for the new system.</p>
<p>The magical Wii remote has some striking features. The accelerometers located inside the controller and infrared detector to sense the position in 3D space can measure movements at all speeds and all directions. In a driving game it serves as your steering wheel. In Tennis game, you can use this as your racket to swing away and there are many more examples. The controller has expansion port for use with accessories as well it has force feedback <code>Rumble</code> features. The Wii Remote also has a small speaker at the center, allowing players to hear sounds programmed directly into the controller.</p>
<p>If you prefer the feel of a traditional controller, you can connect an adapter which is available and easily fits over the Wii`s remote.</p>
<p>The Wii console is backward compatible with Nintendo Gamecube software. The console can communicate with internet even when there is no power. It can also communicate with Nintendo DS wirelessly without any accessories.</p>
<p>The WiiConnect 24 allows download to players via the Internet. The downloadable items may include weapons, new level costumes, etc. WiiConnect 24 while keeps Wii on all day long, uses minimal energy. However players can deactivate this at any time.</p>
<p>Wii`s operating system interface is divided into a number of smaller channels, designed similar to the television channels. The channels are graphically displayed in a grid and can be easily navigated using Wii Remote. A short list of the available channels is as follows: forecast channel, photo channel, news channel, virtual console channel(s), Wii Shop Channel, internet channel, Wii message board, everybody votes channel and disc channel.</p>
<p>While playing offline, a maximum of four controllers can be used in Wii. Rather than focusing only on a costly technology, Nintendo is looking forward to put an emphasis on gameplay and innovation with Wii and company`s intention is to reach out to everybody including amateurs.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Adobe has announced plans to pull te plug on there stock photo service that was integrated with the Adobe Creativity Applications.  The application itself was great and well designed in my opinion, but I feel that it&#8217;s shortfall is exactly the reason that never used it in a professional situation.  It relied on the big business end of stock photography, where the use of an image  in a project  could cost over a hundred dollars.    I personally use iStock Photo where I can by a picture for print for less than $10, and web use for even less.  There are a few big agencies and businesses that will use the premium services, but that is not enough to keep development on this feature up to date.  I guess it will be nice to regain a little hard drive space.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have been a loyal fan of my internet browser for a long time.  But the last little while things have started to change.  Some sites are not displaying as they should, occasionally the application totally goes blank and takes 30 -50 seconds before the web page shows up again.  Flash causes errors everytime it tries to load a flash based error.  It seems to have gone from a solid app to a buggy mess.  Well I have been using an alternative for about a week now and I have to say that Internet Explorer 7 is working great.  Perhaps it&#8217;s not that evil, no good, dirty, rotten browser that I read about on many sites.  Is it possible that they just are jealous of the company who makes it and so everything they produce gets critisized blindly.  I have loved firefox, and will likely go through the process of unistalling it and reinstalling it to see if that will work out the bugs, but for now IE7 is working out just fine. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.sonycreativesoftware.com/images/ss/md/vegaspro8_ss_main.jpg" title="Sony Vegas 8 screenshot" alt="Sony Vegas 8 screenshot" align="middle" height="330" width="546" /></p>
<p>Sony Creative Software has released the newest version of their popular Vegas Video Editing software.  Vegas 8 adds a few new valuable features to there already very capable base.  Among the new features are multi-cam  editing, 32 bit multi-point processing, pro type title, digital signage support, a new mixing console window, Blue Ray disk support (Not Really) , and a handful of other enhancements.  The multi-cam feature is a great addition.  It has been possible through the purchase of expensive plugins, but it is great to see that it will be a native feature.  The 32-bit processing is a more under the hood kind of thing but it does enhance the picture and puts it as a solid option in the broadcast and high def market.  Now whether it&#8217;s interface or reputation allows it to creep into that market remains to be seen, but it certainly has the capability.  Titling in Vegas for years has been lacking.  Although it was always easy to use the ability to do advanced effects with titles has been a problem.  Although it doesn&#8217;t relate to me much the digital signage support  is a great addition.  The Vegas interface is really right down a creative marketing type of persons ally.  The composting and mixed format capabilities of Vegas really make it the best option hands down for developing ads and signage. I suspect they will pick up a big chunk of market share with this move.  With the addition of the mixing console I can now see myself no longer needing the audio specific software Sound Forge.  Vegas started as an audio application so it has alway been strong in audio capability, but did and still does lack some of the features of Sound Forge.  Now with the addition of the mixer I personally have everything in Vegas 8 that I need as an editor.  A serious audio tech would probably disagree.  The Blue-Ray support (Ha-Ha) was very disappointing.  You can now create a Blue-Ray disk that will record a high def movie to play on a Blue-Ray player, but you have absolutely no capability to create a menu.  It is simply a play only disk.  Sony is the biggest player in the Blue-Ray format and I expected a little more from them than this most basic of functionality.</p>
<p>Aside from my gripe with the Blue-Ray Support Sony Vegas 8 is a great upgrade to a great product.  It has strengthened many of it&#8217;s weak areas and is a more solid video solution than ever.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The announcement from Apple that they were reducing the price of the iPhone brought a mix of emotions. The happiness of those considering the iPhone is obvious, they can now get a great product for a reasonable cost.  The surprising reaction to me is the rage from those customers who have already purchased the popular iPhone.  They made comments to the effect that they were getting screwed by Apple because someone else was getting a better deal.  In reality this is a huge shift for Apple, and I can understand the shock that the customers had.  Apple has never really reduced the prices of their technology as it becomes outdated.  There production costs go down, as technology becomes cheaper, they make a greater profit, and the customers are happy because at least every body is paying the same price.  Rather than reducing the price on older models they quite making them and move on to the next product, at the same price.  This is very unique technology hardware industry. Just look at VCR&#8217;s, DVD Players, and Blueray Players.  No one is screaming about the fact that these technologies become easier and cheaper to produce and therefore the price went down.  I can not figure out why people are upset because for the first time in recent history Apple decided to pass the savings on to the customer.  How dare they give the customer a fair price? But I guess all of the complaints have paid off for these early adopters.  Apple is giving them a $100 Rebate on apple products.  I personally think the  early adopters of the iPhone that are complaining about the price drop are idiots, but Apple is a very touchy feely kind of a company, so I would expect a move like this to keep there customers happy.  Can&#8217;t you feel the love?  I guess they have to keep that feeing going, how else will they keep the customers paying 2-3X what they would for equivalent  PC hardware?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In a previous article I wrote regarding my pleasant surprise of the ease of use and power of Corel WordPerfect X3.  I stand behind the article and still claim that it is the best office product I have used.  But one issue with its use did put a kink in my workflow.  As an early adopter of Microsoft Office 2007 many of my files are in the new.docx format.  Corel WordPerfect X3 could not open the new Microsoft format.  The work around for me is obvious, I simply Open it in Word and save it back to the old  format.  But if I used Corel WordPerfect exclusively it could present problems if clients sent documents in the new format.  I contacted Corel regarding this issue, and they too expressed concern about this issue.    Corel made the following statement regarding support: “Corel would move to make &#8220;Open, view and edit&#8221; capabilities (Saving will be to the binary formats at first) available in WordPerfect Office for both Microsoft Office OOXML and OASIS ODF in 2007&#8243;<br />
Although they did not give me a date of when this would be supported they said it would be soon.  I will post information as soon as it is available.<br />
If you are not sharing files on a regular basis with MS Office users this is not really an issue, but for those actively sharing documents with office users this is an area of consideration.  My personal recommendation would be to keep using what you are now until the support is available.  If you must make a purchase now, I would still recommend Corel Word Perfect X3 because the time and effort you will save by using a better product will be well worth a few headaches until the new format is supported.</p>
