Sony Vaio VGN-X505VP
Let's get the obvious out of the way first. This latest Vaio from Sony is, without a shadow of a doubt, the coolest notebook computer ever. It's that simple. This is the kind of product that just stops people in their tracks when they see it. Pull this out of your bag in an aiport departure lounge, and your fellow passengers will turn green with envy, and shamefully hide their own big and heavy notebooks under the nearest chair.

UNIX Airways
Everyone brings one piece of the 'plane along when they come to the airport. They all go out on the runway and put the 'plane together piece by piece whilst arguing non-stop about what kind of 'plane they are supposed to be building.

Arrests have been made in several countries related to the break-in to Valve's network, theft of the Half-Life 2 source code, and release of the source code on the Internet.
"Within a few days of the announcement of the break-in, the online gaming community had tracked down those involved," said Gabe Newell, Valve's CEO. "It was extraordinary to watch how quickly and how cleverly gamers were able to unravel what are traditionally unsolvable problems for law enforcement related to this kind of cyber-crime."

Turn your PC into a Mac
So, you wanna make your ugly Windows XP interface look like Mac OS X, huh? It’s really not all that difficult to do, and with a little luck, you’ll be able to convince all but the most die-hard Mac users that you run an Apple computer. First, here’s a list of the programs you’ll need:

The Wi-Fi explosion: a virus writer's dream
With the consumer Wi-Fi explosion, launching a virus into the wild has never been easier and more anonymous than it is today. Like a sneeze in a crowded subway, it's hard to find the human source of the latest viral infection. On the Internet it's not much different. The people who write these nasty little programs and release them into the wild almost never get caught. Why? The answer is easy, but it's also a sort of technical nemesis: there's simply no way to track these people down.

A Linux Desktop Bonanza OS for FREE
Linux desktop vendors Xandros and Linspire (also known as Lindows) are offering more desktop software for less, and, in the case of Xandros, for nothing.
Xandros is giving away a version of its Linux Desktop Operating System for free.
"Our principal aim is to spread the use of desktop Linux as far and wide as possible," Frederick H. Berenstein, chairman and chief technology officer of Xandros, told internetnews.com. "We've also had a tremendously positive reception for the Xandros Desktop products and we felt that this would be an ideal way to give back to the community."
