Ubuntu Linux to run on Android Phones, A desktop on smartphone.

Have you ever wondered how powerful today's smartphones have become? If you ask Canonical the makers behind popular Ubuntu Linux, powerful enough to run full fledged desktop class OS with ease.  This could simply lead to a future where your mobile phone can double up as a portable desktop and a mobile. With Ubuntu for Android, which the company says launches a full desktop OS experience whenever you connect your phone to a computer screen and keyboard. With it, Canonical claims you’ll be able to use Android on the phone and Ubuntu as your desktop, both running simultaneously on the same device, with seamless sharing of contacts, messages and other common services. The company states that the phone experience will be pure Android–it’s a normal Android phone. When the device is connected to a computer screen, however, it launches a full Ubuntu desktop on the computer display. It’s exactly the same Ubuntu Unity desktop many are...

Intel's Sandy Bridge processors have a remote kill switch ???

Intel's upcoming Sandy Bridge processors have a new feature that the chip giant is calling Anti-Theft 3.0. The processor can be disabled even if the computer has no Internet connection or isn't even turned on, over a 3G network. With Intel anti-theft technology built into Sandy Bridge, David Allen, director of distribution sales at Intel North America, told  ITBusiness  that users have the option to set up their processor so that if their computer is lost or stolen, it can be shut down remotely. For those who want to protect their computers from thieves, the ability to remotely disable them sounds great. But disabling a CPU might discourage a few thieves but those technically literate criminals might not be bothered. For e.g, Most cyber criminals are after the data not the hardware itself. So if the owner disables the CPU the hard disk will still be usable & no one can stop them from accessing the hard disk from other computer. Plus the question is how...

Fusion - AMD's First CPU-GPU combo releasing by last quarter of 2010

Though Intel already has taken a lead with the release of their 'Clarkdale' Core i3 and Core i5 processors, AMD said that they won't be trailing too far behind in showing the world their version of CPU-GPU combo processors - named Fusion. Unlike Intel's solution, Fusion promises not to be a MCM (Multi-Chip Module) i.e. where multiple chips are actually sandwiched together to form a single processor; and instead, the Fusion will be based all on a single die. Intel's Clarkdale combines a 32nm processor along with a 45nm graphics controller with a memory interface, making the CPU-GPU solution. AMD Fusion is being manufactured using the 32nm fabrication process; and while reporting on its development, officials say production is going ahead promisingly fast, ensuring that the Fusion processor will be ready for shipping within this year. The CPU-GPU combo processors promise to unleash a new dimension in day-to-day computing, reducing the form factor, price and cir...

OVER-CLOCK YOUR CPU

Yeah! you must have read in heard or read that the clock of your CPU can be changed. For example My Pentium-IV Processor runs at 1.8 Ghz default but I run it at a 2.6 Ghz whenever I need & sometimes to a wooping 3.5 Ghz. To change the clock speed first you need to open your BIOS which can be accesed by pressing "Delete" key in your keyboard immediately after pressing the power button. Note:- Some times system administraters just add a password to BIOS. If it asks for password you need to hack it by opening your cabinet & look for a cell battery on your motherboard just remove it & start your pc again. Note:- Ifyou have Orignal Intel Motherboard that is it displays Intel Inside Logo when booting up then this hack is not for you Intel already disables it. OK! all done just access the BIOS & look for a option called "CPU Clock". Now all you need is to increase the number slowly & save settings & start pc it the system is stable ...
