IBM is proud to announce a product
you may have a personal interest in. It's a tool that could soon be on your desk, in your home or in your child's schoolroom. It can make a surprising difference in the way you work, learn or otherwise approach the complexities (and some of the the simple pleasures) of living."

On January 19, 1986, the first PC virus —
Brain — was detected. It was virtually harmless, and the Pakistani creators
claim that it was only intended to protect their copyrights. (They did, after all, include their own address and phone number in the machine code.) In the past 20 years, though, both
creating viruses and
destroying them have become billion-dollar industries.

Google and Wal-Mart to launch the Google Computer [GoogleFilter] - Rumor-merchants around the industry are abuzz with speculation that Google is about to launch a no-frills, $200 networked computer via (ahem) Wal-Mart. They will also announce Google Cubes, media and home automation control devices. Will this be a watershed event or an infamous folly? Film at 11.

In their day, Trilobyte was at the height of the computer gaming world. Their first title,
7th Guest, made them an instant success, and their follow-ups,
11th Hour and
Clandestiny, were equally well-received. But as the saying goes, the bigger they are, the harder they fall.
Haunted Glory, from the GameSpot archives, documents the rise and fall of Trilobyte.

New Bose radio hooks up to PC. I just saw their ad in wired and when to check the site. It had some popups so I turned webwasher off and reloaded the page. When I did, I was just redirected to a teaser. So I turned webwasher back on and was able to get to this site, which shows off a new radio that connects to the PC. The funny thing is to try going to
http://wavepc.bose.com/ with and without
webwasher yields different results.
