Or at least the idea of it is... Wireless networks abound in coffee franchises, Colleges and even McDonalds. So let's look into what is involved in making your home network wireless. This article will cover purchasing and setting up home wireless equipment, look at the available standards for wireless networking, and cover some basic security guidelines. If you have already set up a conventional home network, jump right in. Otherwise you may wish to read the PCstats Guide to basic home networking to get a better idea of the basics of networking computers. ____________________________________________ 07/07/03 - More support from Microsoft for AMD Alchemy AMD today announced Microsoft has released a Board Support Package (BSP) for the AMD Alchemy DBAu1500 development board. The BSP allows developers to speed deployment of next-generation devices that take advantage of the combination of the Microsoft Windows CE operating system and the high-performance, low-power AMD Alchemy Au1500 processor. Used by OEMs, the BSP will aid in quick development and decreased time-to-market for devices such as thin clients, handheld devices and wireless access points. With Microsoft's release of the BSP for the DBAu1500, the entire AMD Alchemy Solutions processor family is now certified on Windows CE 4.2. ____________________________________________ 07/07/03 - HighSpeed PC Athlon XP Unlocking Kit The HighSpeed Athlon XP Unlocking Kit is awesome. The agents that they provide will last a long time and should last up to or more than 25 CPU’s. Mod Synergy has successfully unlocked the same CPU for the third time and proves it with an Athlon XP1900+ multiplier which was originally at 12x and is now at 8x...

"Air cooling has very many practical cons, you only need to mount a heatsink and you're done. In some cases you also need to mount a fan, but that is also very simple to do. It is also the cheapest cooling variant, and the one with the widest range. When it comes to price and the practical part it is without doubt the winner".

MERLIN is made of 148 nodes and will reach 360 soon with a computing power of about 1330GFlops which will allow the system to be ranked among the 100 most powerful systems on earth!. Planet 3DNow! has the story here ____________________________________________ 07/02/03 - Plot thickens in AMD-IBM fab venture "As reported in May, rumors were--and still are--running rampant that IBM is in the process of building a new, advanced fab for AMD. Reports have surfaced that IBM is gutting a building in New York and turning it into a 300-mm, sub-100-nm fab. Once the fab is equipped, IBM will reportedly turn the plant over to AMD, sources said. In turn, AMD will make next-generation processors in the fab, they added".
