InfoWorld has a great article covering some of the best free (and open source) software for Windows. So, all you Windows users out there (you know who you are, tisk tisk), listen up: you really can get free software legitimately (a.k.a., not stealing). As would be expected, OpenOffice.org and Mozilla...
Well, that is a bit sensational of a title. Nevertheless, the New York Times has this intriguing article about the current state of AI, and the fact that a few computer scientist are getting a little jittery about it. It seems that over the past 5 to 8 years, the...
There is some big new from Comic Con about the new Tron movie — Tron: Legacy. From the previews, it looks like it may be pretty good. And if not good, well, at least it will be nostalgic for those of us who grew up ooohhhing and ahhhhing the original...

Ladies and gents, the evil genius Jake of all Trades has done it again. Unveiling his plans for total world domination, he has contrived a monsterfully masterful marvel of infernal engineering. This latest creation of his has been aptly dubbed the Damnation (in honor of the new PS3 game of...
For a few months now, Microsoft and Asus have been running a FUD campaign against Linux. It’s not a big campaign by any measure, but just enough to be annoying (in much the same way that a yapping chihuahua is annoying). Ironically, until now Asus has been a big supporter...
