Ozzie osboren at IBM??
Published: Tuesday, January 9, 2001 | By: DennisIt seems that the WebSphere software from IBM is now translating webpages on the fly to its users. something that has been long overdue for the web. Now since this isn't really THAT interesting for all of us English speaking folk, what is funny is this..."
``The demand is very simple,'' said Ozzie Osborne, general manger of IBM Voice Systems. ``Its for people who want to translate quickly and easily, who can't get translation. Much of the content of the Web is in English, but population using the Web is becoming non-English speaking.''
Osborne said the WebSphere translation server, which has been tested by businesses such as Deutsche Bank and will be available in March, will provide global entities with the ability to allow their workforce to communicate. It also will open up new markets for English language e-commerce sites.
I wonder if the website will start jammin to "Crazy Train" if you enter the secret code. -

Banner Ads no good?
Published: Friday, January 5, 2001 | By: DennisIt seems that the trouble with the online world has affected the UGO Network and they have resorted to cut back on banner payments. This is also affecting many of the larger hardware and gaming sites out there. Considering how many page views you need to have before even being considered for an UGO banner, and how much work must go into running a site of this size. I can see how many of these sites will be no more in the coming months.
As you can see I am banner free. Maybe that will change in the coming months. -

Some of the upgrades will include, forum titles based on total posts, email notification with each reply to your message, the ability to message people via ICQ, AIM, Yahoo, and much more. I will make a formal announcement when the new forums are online. -
Micron DDR Memory Pricing
Published: Thursday, January 4, 2001 | By: DennisYou can be sure this price will change in the coming months. Though it would also appear that DDR memory doesn't cost much more to produce than regular SDRAM. Makes the switch a pretty easy one.

So if you are looking for a inexpensive upgrade that has overclocking ability you might look at the Celeron. Then again there is better options.

WaterCooled GeForce2
Published: Sunday, December 31, 2000 | By: DennisHypothermia has posted an article on water cooling his Hercules GeForce2.
He has great attention to detail, right down to the blue anodized goodies that cover the GPU and RAM and from an aesthetic standpoint, this is the best water-cooling mod I have ever seen.
