Dell has unveiled a new server for Web applications that uses Via Technologies' Nano processors to reduce power consumption and increase density in the data center. Up to 12 of the new XS11-VX8 servers can be fitted into into an industry-standard 2U chassis, each using 15 watts of power while idle and 29 watts at full load. The company claims the new server can reduce total cost of ownership by up to 34 percent. [Read more...]

A new member of the family

We added a new member to our home. His name is Rowdy. He belonged to Brian and Debra who was evited from their house today. And, they desperately needed a home for their dog Rowdy.

I just happened to be out shopping for a 50 Gal. trash can at Big Lots when I met Brian there at the sidewalk. He asked if I wanted a dog...

At first I hesitated. Not because I didn't want a dog, but because I wasn't sure how my wife Stephi would react to such a pet. 2:15pm May 20th, 2009

Google co-founder Larry Page and CEO Eric Schmidt have admitted that when it comes to the public's thirst for real-time, up-to-the-minute news and conversation, Twitter's beating them. "People really want to do stuff real time and I think they [Twitter] have done a great job about it," the Guardian quoted Page as saying. "I think we have done a relatively poor job of creating things that work on a per-second basis." [Read more...]

Nvidia can be a tricky company to understand. But there's a bigger puzzle too. The PC industry has long been all about grinding out parts that are cheaper and faster than the year before. That's driven prices down and performance up. Nvidia, meanwhile, has raised prices by selling specialized processors that unlock new kinds of graphics capabilities. And for years industry watchers have wondered whether other chips will swallow up the graphics chores that Nvidia has tackled. [Read more...]

"I'm introverted. I don't really like being with people. You can tell an introvert versus an extrovert depending on how they relate to people: If I go to a party, I'm not energized, I'm exhausted. I can't wait to leave. I shouldn't be leading a business--I even hate traveling.

"Probably in 1986, I read this paper in the Harvard Business Review. I was an engineer at LSI Logic ( LSI - news - people ), and I might have stayed an engineer there the rest of my life.

It sounds like something out of science fiction: zombie fire ants. But it's all too real.

Fire ants wander aimlessly away from the mound.

Eventually their heads fall off, and they die. [Video]

The strange part is that researchers at the University of Texas at Austin and Texas A&M's AgriLife Extension Service say making "zombies" out of fire ants is a good thing.

"It's a tool — they're not going to completely wipe out the fire ant, but it's a way to control their population," said Scott Ludwig , an integrated pest management specialist with the AgriLife Extension Service in Overton , in East Texas .

The tool is the tiny phorid fly, native to a region of South America where the fire ants in Texas originated. Researchers have learned that there are as many as 23 phorid species along with pathogens that attack fire ants to keep their population and movements under control. [Read more...] and [More here]

A new type of air-fueled battery being studied could provide up to 10 times the energy storage of designs currently available, and someday be used to power electric cars, mobile phones, and laptops, say researchers.

DETROIT/WASHINGTON (Reuters) – General Motors Corp and Chrysler aim to drop as many as 3,000 U.S. dealers and are expected to begin sending notifications as early as Thursday, three people briefed on the still developing plans said.

GM, facing a U.S. government-imposed deadline of June 1 to restructure or file for bankruptcy, is expected to send termination notices to up to 2,000 dealers -- a third of its roughly 6,000 U.S. dealers, the sources told Reuters.

Chrysler, which filed for bankruptcy on April 30, will also tell up to 1,000 of its 3,189 U.S. dealers it is terminating their franchise agreements, according to the sources who asked not to be identified because the controversial closure plans have not been yet announced. [Read more...]

The iPhone can teach its users how to perform CPR, mix a White Russian and allow them identify any song playing on the radio.

But for some owners of the Apple touch-screen device, the 35,000-plus applications lining the digital shelves of Apple’s App Store are not enough. If you want to use your iPhone as a video camera, send a photo message or hook it up to your laptop to connect to the Internet, there’s no app for that.

Or at least, no official app.

However, in order to use these programs, iPhone owners have to “jailbreak” their device — downloading a bit of software that bypasses Apple’s restrictions and allows the installation of unsanctioned third-party programs. [Read more...]

A British company continues to offer a portable decontamination device that should come as breath of fresh air to a flue-weary public.

In fact the unit duplicates the ability of "outdoor fresh air" to destroy a wide range of airborne viruses and bacteria including the H5N1, influenza and SARS, all within minutes of contact, according to Tri--Air Developments. "It's almost so good that nobody is going to believe it," admits Martin Wyatt, of the Buildings Research Establishment, a quasi-government agency that has been involved with the development.

One of the greatest stumbling blocks that a start-up Web service company has to get over is customers' fear that the company will die and take their data with it. Manufacturers of traditional software can go belly-up without it immediately affecting a product's utility. And if General Motors went out of business tomorrow (I know, shocking), its cars would still be drivable. But Web services are different. When your cloud app goes under for the last time, it sinks customers, too.

In the best of the bad cases, when a Web service goes offline, the company in question is able to shut down in an orderly way and let its users know long before the servers are pulled off the Net. Large multi-product companies generally do this well. When Yahoo shut down Yahoo Photos in favor of Flickr, it gave users plenty of time to offload their pictures, or move them to another service. When HP shuttered the cloud backup system Upline, it likewise gave users fair warning.

Consumers have spoken. They'd still rather pop a disc in a DVD player than download or watch a video online, at least according to one new market report.

Sales and rentals of DVDs and Blu-ray discs in the U.S. made up 88 percent of consumer home video spending over the past three months, according to a survey released Tuesday by market researcher NPD Group.

Your average U.S. consumer paid about $25 per month on video purchases and rentals, with 63 percent on DVD purchases, 7 percent on Blu-ray Disc purchases, 18 percent on rentals, 9 percent on video on demand, and only 3 percent on digital downloads. [Read more...]

Sunnyvale, California-based graphics chip maker NVIDIA is expected to debut its first graphics processing units, featuring the next-generation 40nm manufacturing process. The exact details regarding the company's foray into the 40nm process technology are yet to emerge, but according to some recently made comments by its CEO, it is aggressively ramping production on three new GPUs, leveraging TSMC's 40nm manufacturing node. These new graphics accelerators are expected to debut before the end of the year and will account for about 25-30 percent of NVIDIA's all shipping GPUs in 2009. [Read more...]

Every so often in the history of war, a new weapon comes along that fundamentally rewrites the rules of battle. This is a story about a revolution in unmanned aviation that is doing just that. Most people know them as drones; the Air Force calls them unmanned aerial vehicles, or UAVs. And right now, there are dozens of them in the skies over Iraq and Afghanistan, hunting down insurgents, every minute of every day. They've become one of the most important planes in the United States Air Force--and yet the pilot is nowhere near the aircraft or the battlefield. They are controlled by remote control, from thousands of miles away. [Read more...]

Today we’ll be testing 23 new heatsinks and comparing them to the 49 already tested in the past. [Read more...]

As the underdog in the chip wars, AMD has traditionally targeted users with products that offer good relative value, rather than maximum performance. A prime current example is their fastest desktop processor, the Phenom II. Their current flagship CPU, the Phenom II 955 Black Edition falls a bit short of Intel's fastest and and more costly Core 2 or Core i7 chips, but it was well received by the most of the tech web press due to AMD's aggressive pricing. Their graphics division, ATI, has been following a similar path, offering great value cards like the energy efficient Radeon HD 4670 and HD 4830 for gamers with tighter pockets. In these troubled financial times, it's could well turn out to be a very effective strategy. [Read more...]

The assets for Silicon Graphics can be transferred to Rackable Systems, a US court has decided.

Rackable will buy nearly all the assets of Silicon Graphics for $42.5 million in cash, a US Bankruptcy court has decided. The deal will be completed in just one week.

The CEO of Rackable, Mark J. Barrenchea, said the deal will make his company stronger. The company will have "differentiated product lines and professional services reaching commercial, government and scientific sectors on a worldwide basis."

It seems that the final price paid for SGI is higher than the original bid of $25 million.

It's not entirely clear yet what impact Rackable's acquisition will have on jobs at SGI.

Scientists at the Max Planck Institute of Microstructure Physics in Germany have discovered a way to make spider silk three times stronger by adding small amounts of metal.

The new technique could make the material useful for manufacturing super-tough textiles and high-tech medical materials, inlcuding artificial bones and tendons.

The innovative method, developed by Seung-Mo Lee, utilizes a process called atomic layer deposition. The process coats spider dragline silks with zinc, titanium or aluminum, causing certain ions to penetrate the fibers and react within their protein structures.

Kim Thompson, CEO of Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, termed the discovery "absolutely incredible."

"Spider silk is already known as one of the strongest fibers found in nature and is recognized for its unparalleled capacity to absorb and dissipate energy in a very controlled manner. Being five times stronger than steel of the same diameter in its natural form, this enhancement reminds us again of the extraordinary potential spider silk has," said Thompson.

While military camouflage patterns for vehicles have evolved, the application process has been stuck in the spray booth. Now, however, GI equivalents of Earl Scheib can apply a precut "wrap" of adhesive vinyl that will blend in on virtually any battlefield.

The process is similar to the advertising and decorative wraps commonly seen on cars and buses, except that this product from Military Wraps, called Photo Veil, is lightweight and incorporates images from cameras on drones, satellites, or lidar in the field and loops them back to be applied to vehicles or equipment as site-specific, high-resolution camouflage.

It combines "megapixel digital images, state-of-the-art inking systems and revolutionary lightweight and waterproof mesh material to duplicate precisely any operational environment," be it mountain, desert, jungle, forest, or urban terrain, according to Military Wraps. [Read more...]

There's a lot of speculation (not to mention misconceptions) flying around about VMware's recent move towards the "Cloud". Critics believe it to be absolute rubbish, a step back to the age of the mainframe, warning us of the dangers of centralized data storage and the security/availability issues that might bring about. "Only your own PC is safe enough for your data." Proponents counter these arguments by quoting the numerous applications that people use that basically require no more than a dumb terminal anyway. For example, our readers wouldn't technically need a monster PC to read our articles and their emails; just a thin client with web access would suffice. [Read more...]

In the search for Earth-like planets, astronomers zeroed in Tuesday on two places that look awfully familiar to home. One is close to the right size. The other is in the right place. European researchers said they not only found the smallest exoplanet ever, called Gliese 581 e, but realized that a neighboring planet discovered earlier, Gliese 581 d, was in the prime habitable zone for potential life.

"The Holy Grail of current exoplanet research is the detection of a rocky, Earth-like planet in the 'habitable zone,'" said Michel Mayor, an astrophysicist at Geneva University in Switzerland.

An American expert called the discovery of the tiny planet "extraordinary." [Read more...]

When Americans are wounded in Afghanistan or Iraq, no expense is spared to save their lives. But once they're home, if they have suffered an amputation of their arm, they usually end up wearing an artificial limb that hasn't changed much since World War II.

In all the wonders of modern medicine, building a robotic arm with a fully functioning hand has not been remotely possible.

But as 60 Minutes correspondent Scott Pelley reports, that is starting to change. One remarkable leap in technology is called the DEKA arm and it's just one of the breakthroughs in a $100 million Pentagon program called "Revolutionizing Prosthetics." [Read more...]

Acer launched a PC Tuesday that attempts to bring PC-class performance to Atom-processor-based PCs. The Acer AspireRevo, about the size of a hardcover book, combines Nvidia graphics with the Intel Atom processor. The Acer AspireRevo is the first Atom-based PC from a major PC supplier to use Nvidia's Ion chipset that packs GeForce 9400M graphics, the same graphics used in the Apple 13-inch MacBook and MacBook Air. By design, Atom is a more power frugal and, concomitantly, slower processor than Intel's mainstream Core 2 chip architecture. [Read more...]
