How a Bell Labs engineer discovered the inherit insecurity of all encryption due to “compromising emanations,” the electromagnetic and acoustic energy which radiates from every device.

Working on IBM DisplayWriters, Mag Card and Electronic Typewriters, and Office System/6, I had access to all service manuals. Most had part numbers for Tempest spares, and I had a chance to look over a Tempest-certified DisplayWriter service…

Funny concept, Lenovo — manila envelope stuffing was just ripe for a demonstration of what all you typical MacBook Air user is going to need on hand.

That's a good one. Admittedly, IBM thinkpads are some sweet looking hardware, but I wouldn't run vista if they paid me a consulting fee. We should start separating our hardware from our software and leave it to personal preference….

It looks like Mark Hamburg, a Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom programming guru, will be leading work to give Microsoft Windows a better user interface. And given the dramatic user interface differences between earlier and later Adobe projects that Hamburg worked on, that raises some very intriguing possibilities. Microsoft and Adobe Systems had…

“One of the goals in Lightroom was to consciously think about the product personality we were trying to create with the expectation that a less accidental personality would induce a stronger emotional reaction in users. That stronger reaction…

One of the most surprising things about the launch of an ultra-portable laptop dubbed “Air” by Apple wasn't it's thinness but the lack of an embedded WWAN radio. No more, at least if you're not intimidated by smoldering solder and warranty violations. Jordan Bunnell has posted a step-by-step of his success at integrating a Verizon USB727 Aircard.

agreed. i think linux is the best choice for schools, actually. it's free, it's already pretty far along with usability — i would say that ubuntu takes a reasonably knowledgeable person to properly set up but any stupid joe can…

While greeted with heaps of initial skepticism, forum jockeys over at OQO Talk now seem convinced that a junior member by the name of TRF has successfully hacked the OQO to run OS X Leopard. Adding a video filmed by Mr. Blurry Cam didn’t hurt the cause. TRF’s OQO is setup in a dual-boot Vista / OS X mode which boots Leopard in about 2 minutes.

There's a very good reason for this:Notice how the reflections are well focused, this is the trade off for not having macro activated.Now that the reflections are correctly displayed, there will be no claim of Photoshop's involvement to…

We'd explain this thing, but we're really having trouble taking our eyes off of it long enough to string some full sentences together. Suffice it to say Festo's AirJelly is powered by some magical jelly fish properties, a lithium-ion battery, an electric motor and a bit of helium.

It doesn't necessarily have to have a direct Real World Application. considering all the crap that we make that is unnecessary (ie. Hello Kitty laptops, Windows - Millenium Edition, et cetera), these make themselves worthwhile by…

Slap on a B to the processor name and you have a business class processor. At least that is what AMD is going to tell you. Do you buy it?

Sunnyvale (CA) ? There is no denying that desktop CPU sales are on what seems to be an unstoppable decline. Intel expects to begin shipping more notebook processors than desktop CPUs sometime later this year and while AMD may be trailing…

A new SQL injection attack aimed at Microsoft IIS web servers has hit some 500,000 websites, including the United Nations, UK Government sites and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. While the attack is not necessarily Microsoft's fault, it is unique to the company's IIS server.

The NoScript add-in for Firefox isn't going to help you if you've added a compromised site to your trusted list. Thats teh point of this attack - it compromised trusted sites to in turn install malicious software on an end…

This lightweight drop down menu script allows you to easily add smooth transitioning dropdowns to your website. This can be used for navigation, dropdown lists, info panels, etc.

@Diego - Excellent suggestion. I definately do recommend using existing HTML tags in lieu of classed divs. I will take a look at incorporating those tags and update the post if I like how it works out. I have never actually used definition…

In three months time, the Canadian music, movie and TV industries will unleash their combined legal might on a little known BitTorrent tracker. A true David and Goliath battle, the QuebecTorrent case is one that Michael Geist says is one worth watching?, and will have wide implications for all of online Canada.

Sheila: Times have changed Our kids are getting worse They won’t obey their parents They just want to fart and curse! Sharon: Should we blame the government? Liane: Or blame society? Dads: Or should we blame the images on TV? Sheila: No,…

New data on the ever changing P2P landscape shows that the number of uTorrent users worldwide has more than doubled compared to last year. The BitTorrent client is most popular in Europe - with an install rate of 11.6% - and least popular in the United States, where 5.1% of the PCs have uTorrent installed.

I have been using utorrent (bitcomet before that ) some time now and wouldn’t trade it for anything. As for limewire, if I really need a song I’ll either use symella (limewire for symbian os) or use the power of…

Windows Vista haters got a ray of hope recently when Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer said the company was willing to consider extending Windows XP’s lifespan. However, while Ballmer tells the Associated Press, “if customer feedback varies, we can always wake up smarter,” don’t count on Microsoft keeping XP around to satisfy a handful of disgruntled use

I just purchased a PC that came with vista pre-installed. Just like a previous poster I spent 2 days screwing around with numerous problems. For example, Dell's website would always crash IE7. The sidebar gadgets from microsoft would not…
