Windows Vista users report that the files cause their computers to crash or enter an endless cycle of boots and reboots.

Model LM3D provides automated volume measurement and mass calculations of bulk materials. Device uses rotating laser head for multipoint laser scans to measure uneven surface of stored materials, creates 3D map of surface, and on-board microprocessor calculates stored material's volume and mass. LM2D incorporates non-contact sensor to measure conveyor speed and scanner head that scans profile of flowing material. On-board microprocessor calculates volume and mass throughput in real time.This story is related to the following:Computer Hardware and PeripheralsTest and Measuring Instruments Sponsored by: Thermo Fisher Scientific Air Quailty Instruments Division - Simplicity of Design- Mercury Monitoring made easySearch for suppliers of: Laser Scanners | Volumetric Measuring Systems

HVC 22xyA and HVC 24xyA 8-bit microcontrollers combine all logic functions, peripheral modules, and LIN bus interface in single device. Devices integrate 5 and 2.5 V regulators, true EEPROM, watchdogs, and power-driver electronics. Internal voltage regulators operate directly from automobile's 12 V supply and withstand load dumps of up to 40 V. Subsystem includes LIN 2.0 physical layer interface, 10-bit queued ADC, 3 multithreshold comparators, op-amp, and multiple interrupt inputs.This story is related to the following:Computer Hardware and PeripheralsSearch for suppliers of: Microcontrollers (MCU's)

Google is funding work to ensure the Windows version of Adobe Systems' Photoshop and other Creative Suite software can run on Linux computers. 'We hired CodeWeavers to make Photoshop CS and CS2 work better under Wine,' Dan Kegel, of Google's software engineering team and the Wine 1.0 release manager, said on Google's open-source blog. 'Photoshop is one of those applications that desktop Linux users are constantly clamoring for, and we're happy to say they work pretty well now... We look forward to further improvements in this area.'

ScienceDaily is reporting that a new exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art in New York is part computer, part robot, and part child. Part of the 'Design and the Elastic Mind' exhibit 'WizKid' is able to focus on human faces and follows your movement allowing you to interact with objects on it's display simply by waving your arms. 'Wizkid looks like a computer with a neck. But there the similarities with the familiar personal computer end. Wizkid isn't static. The screen on the mobile neck moves about like a head, and it's trained to hone in on human faces. Once it sees you, Wizkid focuses on you and follows your movement. Unlike a computer, which requires you to stop what you're doing and adapt your behavior and social interactions in order to use it, Wizkid blends into human space. There's no mouse and no keyboard. You don't touch anything. There's no language getting in the way. On Wizkid's screen you see yourself surrounded by a 'halo' of interactive elements that you can simply selec

'Although I have some doubts that XFCE is 'so very much lighter' than GNOME (GNOME 2.20 doesn't take too much memory if you don't start all kind of crap), it is still lighter, and in a few years there will be less and less antiquated computers who require extra-light window managers (Fluxbox, Openbox, Blackbox, WindowMaker, IceWM). XFCE is reasonably mature, and constantly improving, so it has all the chances to become the mid-weighted Desktop Environment of choice pretty soon! What is XFCE needing to reach the Nirvana? Here's the way I see things.'

It's been nearly three years since Apple CEO Steve Jobs announced that Mac computers would sport Intel processors. In that time, however, the number of games ported for Mac computers continues at a relative trickle, with only six to eight top-tier games coming out in a given year.
