The Public Domain review
Reviews This part of Boyle's analysis is in the chapter titled 'An Evidence-Free Zone'. On what evidence did they base their vote? That this is possible probably has something to do — as Boyle suggests in the opening pages of The Public Domain: Enclosing...

Internet Forensics review
Reviews A fair amount of Robert Jones's Internet Forensics: Using Digital Evidence to Solve Computer Crime should be familiar to anyone who has lived through the spam wars of the last decade: how to analyse email headers; how to identify spam and its...

Sharp LL-T17A3-H review
Reviews Fortunately, this proved to be as effective as running directly from a digital signal, with no evidence of pixel jitter on our test patterns. Like all 17in. SXGA TFT monitors, the panel in the LL-T17A3-H has a 0.264mm pixel pitch, giving images a...

Welcome to yet another year of viruses review
Reviews By early summer of 2003, there was evidence that Sobig was building a network of what are called 'open proxies' -- systems that act as blind intermediary portals to the Internet. When the MiMail.l email virus appeared last month, it got little...

The Google Way review
Reviews There is a brief explanation of the way copyright laws impede Google's growth into video — a claim for which Girard's evidence seems to be that in 2007 only 39 percent of US internet users approached the task of finding video by using a search...

Skype 1.1 review
Reviews Call quality was very good in our trials: long-distance conversations were crystal clear, and there was only the slightest evidence of latency -- not nearly enough to interrupt the flow of the conversation.

Skype review
Reviews There was only the slightest evidence of latency, but not nearly enough to interrupt the flow of the conversation. The software is as easy to use as any instant messenger and lets you make free calls over the Internet using your desktop, notebook...

ICQ 2001b 5.18 review
Reviews But we didn't see evidence of that feature: in our trials, ICQ wouldn't allow direct connections -- necessary for file transfers and some other chores -- between outsiders and users behind our corporate firewall.

LaCie Porsche Mobile Hard Drive USB 2.0/FireWire review
Reviews Of course, this might also be considered pretty good evidence that the USB/FireWire bus and the IDE translation chips are still the biggest bottlenecks in sustained transfer performance for external drives.

Dell 1200MP review
Reviews Our tests provided airtight evidence that Dell has violated the low-price/low-brightness law. Well, maybe pixels. Like other budget models, the 1200MP is saddled with low SVGA (800 x 600) resolution, which doesn't quite match up well to the XGA (1...

iPhone insecurity review
Reviews After BlackHat, Apple rebuked Maynor's employer, saying 'despite SecureWorks being quoted saying the Mac is threatened, they have provided no evidence that it is'. Apple excels in creative and innovative marketing.

Women and Information Technology review
Reviews There is even the same omission: sexual harassment, which some of the ACM women entered on their survey forms as a reason why women drop out of computer science, and anecdotal evidence supports the view that it's a factor.

ZoneAlarm Pro 4.0 review
Reviews Other enhancements include a cache cleaner to wipe space-hogging temporary Internet files, browser histories, and cookies from your machine, plus an improved mail monitor that watches outbound mail for evidence of mass-mailing worm activity.

A first look at AMD's Athlon 64 review
Reviews AMD seems to think so, and what better evidence is there than seeing Intel scramble to catch up? For the past two years AMD has sought to debunk the notion that faster clock speed equals better performance.

In pictures: One Laptop Per Child review
Reviews The camera to the right of the OLPC's screen relays real-time video, in this case with evidence of photo-journalism taking place. When Nicholas Negroponte (above, right) of the MIT Media Lab showed off a prototype OLPC (One Laptop Per Child) at...

Vista in the enterprise review
Reviews But evidence of its effectiveness will be measured by the number of patches that the company releases — and patches there will be, as malware authors focus their attentions on trying to break the product.

Brother HL-2700CN review
Reviews Text reproduction was better, being both crisp and clear with little evidence of bleeding or banding. The HL-2700CN is fairly compact for a colour laser printer, measuring 48cm by 42cm by 38.5cm and weighing 30.5kg.

Nokia E61 review
Reviews Design With its large landscape-oriented screen and full QWERTY keyboard, the E61 is reminiscent not only of the classic BlackBerry design but also of the recent Motorola Q. The E61's weight (144g) and dimensions (69.7mm wide by 117mm deep by 14mm...
