Feds Fail Security
Published: Saturday, November 10, 2001 | By: DennisJust like in grade school a Federal Subcommittee was given the task of rating how other Federal agencies are doing when it comes to computer and network security.

Soltek SL-85DRS P4 DDR333 Motherboard
Published: Friday, November 9, 2001 | By: Dennis
Most of the preview reviews of the SIS 645 chipset have shown some very impressive memory scores. Now if you put that chip on a P4 motherboard, then throw in some Over Clocking controls, you will get a product with some potential. It would appear that Soltek has done just that. -

0.13 Pentium 4 at Comdex
Published: Wednesday, November 7, 2001 | By: DennisThe new 0.13-micron process seems to be the next big step for Intel and they are going to demo the technology at Comdex this year.

Slow News Week
Published: Tuesday, November 6, 2001 | By: DennisGood tech news is getting hard to find these days, which is kind of strange considering the time of year. I suppose we can blame it on what I will call "The Tech Slowdown Syndrome". or TTSS for short.

Multi-Network NIC
Published: Sunday, November 4, 2001 | By: DennisSomething I saw over at the OCP today got me thinking. What if you could have a dual-homed server that only used one NIC? As it would turn out Intel is all over that.
