As we all know only too well, over the past couple of years, the popularity of portable computing systems, whether we're talking about netbooks, notebooks or laptops, has reached some unprecedented high levels, due to the high level of versatility all of these devices can provide. However, despite allowing users to communicate, work and play wherever they might be, these things also have some minuses, one of the most important being related to the heat.
We're quite sure that each of you (well, at least those of you who've ever used a notebook) can testify to the fact that these things tend to get very hot, especially if you're using them for extensive periods of time. Of course, they won't cause burns, but they'll get you all sweaty, especially if you're holding them on your lap.
One of the most commonly-used solutions to this problem is represented by notebook coolers, and this is exactly the type of product we'll talk about as follows, namely the Cooler Master NotePal X1 model, which proved to be a surprising product, at least as far as its design is concerned.
Despite the fact that it's been around for quite some time now, the X1 remains a worthy contender on the notebook coolers' segment, especially that dedicated to portable computing systems with a maximum display size of 15 inches. In other words, it will work quite well with both your older laptop or notebook and the brand new netbook (or CULV notebook) you've just purchased.
Plus, this thing is without a doubt one of the coolest-looking such products we've seen arrive on the market, one that you'll be able to use both at home and in public venues, since it will surely draw positive attention due to its unusual form factor and design.

“X-Men Origins: Wolverine” was meant to bring the story of the mutants full circle by returning to the one character who (arguably) made everyone stick together, and who was, at the same time, clearly one of the most beloved mutants ever created. The prequel should have explained how Wolverine controls his berserker rage, and how he grows into the dangerous X-Man with remarkable leader skills that we see in the successful trilogy. In all fairness, when Logan / Wolverine / Hugh Jackman lets rage take over him, the picture is not pretty – but that’s not to say the film itself manages to rise above the level of familiar competence, movie critics argue.
Understandably, X-Men and Wolverine fans will love this film, simply because it brings back on the big screen not one, but several beloved characters, including the all-powerful villain, now-silent but former-heartthrob Deadpool. Those who are not so easily sucked in by the mythology will notice from the first second that, if anything, “Wolverine” is just a mild attempt on Fox’s behalf to squeeze even the last drop of juice still remaining in the franchise – while also promising countless other sequels, spinoffs and whatnot. It’s a hurried movie that bits off more than it can chew, and the only things that hold it together are Hugh Jackman’s admirable efforts and performance.
Of course, that’s not to say that “Wolverine” is bad from start to finish, but it does imply that Fox should have thought twice before rushing into making such a film if it did not feel ready for it – just like fans were saying it would a while back. Comparisons with the leaked version are to be avoided when speaking of it, as hard as it may seem, but, even so, the film still appears like an unfinished version of a production we’ll never see. It’s either because the script tried to include more stories than it was feasible, or because director Gavin Hood fell a victim to his own well-learned vocabulary of special effects, but “Wolverine” comes short of that certain something, that je ne sais quoi that could have turned it into both a blockbuster at the box-office and a quality film, critics say.
Rewind to 1845. Logan is James, a sickly boy who accidentally murders his father, a man he did not even know that well, and who, this way, finds out about the existence of a half elder brother, Victor Creed aka Sabretooth (Liev Schreiber). The two run off together and, once their super-abilities are discovered and properly mastered, enlist their services with the army and fight other people’s battles. Even from the start, it becomes obvious that Logan, unlike Victor, is not the violent type: he may flex and howl and pack the meanest punch, but, deep down inside, all he wants to do is help others. Oppositely, Victor just wants to kill, cause bloodshed and basically beat to a pulp anyone weaker than him, which means just about everyone who crosses his path.
Hugh Jackman as the ripped, angry and ultimately endearing Logan / Wolverine
Enlarge picture
There is, of course, a devious army officer who schemes and plots, and orchestrates things to suit his agenda. Colonel Stryker (Danny Huston) deceives Logan into believing he’ll help him – but only after making him think he had taken something very precious from him –, and offers to make him indestructible. When the Frankenstein-like Wolverine emerges from the steaming bathtub, muscles ripped and dripping in the water necessary for the adamantium to be injected and cooled, he’s a man out for revenge. And revenge he’ll get, because he has to fight not one, but at least three villains – which is precisely why fans and critics alike were disappointed by the twisted, too complicated plotline.
The action scenes are, as expected, impressive but not because there really is some novelty to them or they carry any relevance to the main character, but rather because they’re used as dust in the eyes of the viewers, critics say. Since chances of Wolverine or Sabretooth being killed are slim to none, for instance, their confrontations become redundant since they lack finality and a specific sense of purpose, failing to show the evolution of the characters. The same goes for the other action sequences, which seem either too far-fetched – since the last “X-Men” movie, Wolverine has acquired a new ability, that of jumping really high in the air and tearing helicopter blades with his adamantium claws – or downright useless, with the mutants showing off their skills in a very blatant manner, when they could easily attack in “stealth” mode and be just as efficient.
Nevertheless, as noted above, none of this is the cast’s fault, all of the actors struggling to really make this heavy, unstructured material work. Jackman, as far as he’s concerned, seems to be the only thing keeping “Wolverine” from falling into the abyss where comic book-inspired movies go to die (where “Daredevil” is also to be found), as they say. Ryan Reynolds does his bit as well as Wade Wilson, a terribly charming and annoying skilled soldier who only lacks discipline.
Liev makes for a brilliant villain, having a certain sense of delightful menace about him that initially stuns his victims into not knowing whether they should run in fear or welcome him with open arms. Swift and insinuating, as well as extremely good-looking, Taylor Kitsch as Remy LeBeau aka Gambit also puts on a great show, as do the other mutants. Should anyone think Fox killed “Wolverine,” they should at least know for a fact that it wasn’t because it hadn’t wonderful actors to work with – and an equally awesome story to match.
“X-Men Origins: Wolverine” runs 107 minutes, minus the Easter eggs at the end of the final credits. It opened in Argentina, Germany and France at the end of April, reached the US, Romania and Sweden on May 1, and will conclude its theatrical run in Japan, on August 22.
The Good
Fans of the comics should go to “X-Men Origins: Wolverine,” at least to see their favorite heroes and villains again, if not for the movie itself. Backed up by a strong and determined cast, as well as by certain fun and highly entertaining moments, “Wolverine” makes for a light way of passing almost two hours, but offers no guarantee as to it being a memorable experience as well.
The Bad
“Wolverine” falls short in many respects but the one that pains fans the most, critics argue, is the fact that it promised the world and delivered, well… nothing. Its complicated plotline, obvious use of special effects to mask shortcomings in the story, and the abundance of useless trivia make it one unsuccessful effort on behalf of Fox to continue cashing in on the mutant milk cow.
The Truth
The truth about “Wolverine,” it is being said, is that it should have not been made – or, at the very least, that it should have gone into more competent hands than those of director Hood and Fox high-ups. Without being downright painful to watch, “Wolverine” offers little to redeem itself in the eyes of the fans, with Jackman’s performance being among those few things. Fans will certainly see it, but whether they’ll also like it is a different matter altogether.

Yesterday, the gaming department of Softpedia decided to try some co operative play for Resident Evil 5, the latest game in the very popular series from Capcom. My last experience with the franchise was the excellent Resident Evil 2, which managed to scare me a little and to thrill me quite a lot with its puzzles, boss fights and quite engaging story.
Co op in Resident Evil 5 means someone taking on the role of Sheva Alomar, the side kick that helps protagonist Chris Redfield to take care of yet another zombie (technically “ganados”) outbreak, which occurs in an undisclosed location in Africa.
The problem with Sheva is that she is nothing like me. I am white, a bit overweight and speak English with an accent, while she is a woman, quite beautiful and speaks almost perfect Oxford English. And she has quite a few skills, like doing roundhouse kicks, which I cannot hope to learn. So, I decided that out of respect for a clearly superior human being, be her simulated, I would tailor my playing style to what I believe Sheva would do. I would be daring, quick, deadly with a long range rifle and quick to run away from any hard hitting zombies.
The problem is that Resident Evil 5 makes role-playing hard. First, the inventory is rather small, at only nine spaces. Consider that fact that, for the first two levels, I relied on the pistol while having a shotgun that I dared not use for fear of wasting its ammo before I really needed it. I also carried grenades, again not using them, and ammo for the pistol and the shotgun, plus some herbs.
So, when I finally found the long range sniper rifle, I was faced with some tough choices. Should I drop the pistol that is quite effective and for which I had full ammo? Should I drop the more powerful shotgun? Should I drop the healing herbs, even if they are a combination of red and green? I think I prefer the days of role playing game inventories, when I could make two halberds and three scimitars disappear in my magical pouch.
And because inventory management is done in real time, I also found that my elegant strategy of running and gunning was not too effective when I had to fiddle with swapping weapons with zombies closing my avenues of escape. I had to settle for some serious melee work at some points. And let me tell you, it was not pretty and it did not feel like something Sheva would engage in.
Even with the game design of Resident Evil 5 cramping my style, I really enjoyed the opening levels, especially the portion where we ran frantically from a huge guy with a jagged axe while our helicopter came in to save us.

Microsoft was yet to announce the releasing to manufacturing of Windows Vista Service Pack 2 and Windows Server 2008 SP2 that the bits had already been leaked to torrent trackers. On April 28, the Redmond company indicated that Vista SP2 (a package that also contains Windows Server 2008 SP2) had RTM'd. But signing off the Vista SP2 bits is by no means synonymous with the public availability of the service pack. Still, while Microsoft
estimates that it could take as much as a few months for the public to get access to Vista SP2, end users can already download the gold version of the service pack provided they have a BitTorrent client and know where to look on peer-to-peer networks.
Both the 32-bit and the 64-bit flavors of Vista SP2 have been leaked. Installing the service pack will bump the Windows version up to 6002.18005, according to reports in the wild, full string being 6.0.6002.18005. Information accompanying the leaked bits reveals that 32- bit (x86) Vista SP2 RTM and Server 2008 SP2 RTM are available in English, Japanese, Spanish, German and French. For the x86 releases CRC: 3368C777, MD5: C9394FD32DB15619328AF4FF0315750A, and SHA1: 106C0484D7449CC4B70353C21D0C0D63E4BA66C3 certify that the downloads are indeed what they claim. As far as the x64 versions are concerned, users should look for CRC: 1737E14D, MD5: A3BCB1FFDB366397FA5FAB0898EB098D, and SHA1: BE8D74ADC029FA7350FC1F0D32BEF853C0519A92.
At the same time, Microsoft has not offered the Vista SP2 RTM bits in just five languages. The packages containing a full 36 languages have also been leaked. In this regard, 32-bit Vista SP2 RTM (36 languages) features: CRC32: 8D07A886, MD5: cad218b99fc301836e385049c75f5eaf, and SHA-1: 7f8aa802e157282d84cf47950281de53a8c26f22. The 64-bit version is accompanied by the following info: CRC32: 19C1676E, MD5: db35df98ae5a6fd085386580a6ee8b55, and SHA-1: f0e46deb7734b8ed277b0cf2304ee2babc4d9b1c.
Microsoft must have offered Vista SP2 RTM and Windows Server 2008 SP2 RTM to partners, which subsequently leaked the bits. At the time of this article MSDN and TechNet subscribers had not yet been offered Vista SP2 RTM. Public downloads of Windows Vista SP2 RTM and Windows Server 2008 SP2 RTM are expected in the second quarter of 2009.

Setelah melewati masa beta selama hampir satu tahun, hari ini Microsoft telah merilis Internet Explorer 8 secara resmi. Internet Explorer 8 diyakini dapat memberikan pengalaman browsing yang lebih cepat dan memiliki tingkat keamanan yang jauh lebih baik daripada IE versi sebelumnya. Tidak banyak perubahan pada IE 8 ini dibandingkan versi sebelumnya. Microsoft lebih menekankan penambahan pada sistem keamanan yang lebih ketat dibandingkan versi sebelumnya. Bahkan, untuk menguji sistem keamanan browser ini, Microsoft melakukan penelitian yang dilakukan oleh NSS Lab. Hasilnya, IE 8 mampu menahan dua sampai empat kali serangan lebih banyak dibandingkan browser yang ada di pasaran saat ini. Memang tidak bisa dipungkiri, keamanan merupakan salah satu hal yang diperhatikan pengguna internet dalam memilih browser. Para pengguna lebih suka menggunakan browser yang sudah menggunakan keamanan built-in dalam browser tanpa harus download plugin keamanan terlebih dahulu.
Selain menyadari betapa pentingnya keamanan, Microsoft juga tetap peduli terhadap pengalaman surfing yang lebih cepat. Bahkan, Microsoft menyatakan bahwa IE 8 merupakan salah satu browser tercepat yang ada di pasaran hari ini. Ini merupakan bukti keseriusan mereka untuk menghadirkan browser yang tetap mengedepankan kecepatan.
Sayangnya, masih ada beberapa kekurangan pada browser teranyar dari Microsoft ini. Masih banyak website yang dibangun agar mampu memberikan tampilan yang optimal pada IE 7 tetapi tidak berjalan dengan baik pada IE 8. Untuk mengatasi masalah ini, Microsoft mengeluarkan feature yang disebut Compatibility View. Feature ini akan bekerja secara otomatis bila Anda mengakese website yang dibangun untuk IE 7 dan langsung memberikan tampilan yang terbaik untuk IE 8.
Dengan peluncuran IE 8 versi final ini, Microsoft telah meramaikan peperangan browser yang sedang terjadi sekarang ini. Diharapkan dengan peluncuran ini konsumen akan semakin banyak pilihan dalam memilih produk browser yang terbaik sesuai dengan kebutuhan masing-masing.
Anda sudah dapat me-download IE 8 dalam 25 bahasa di website resmi Microsoft (http://www.microsoft.com/ie8).

sekarang ini, banyak orang dipusingkan dengan prosesor intel berinti 2. Berikut akan saja jelaskan perbedaannya :
Prosesor ini dijual dengan harga $999 pada masanya dan tidak banyak di produksi. (merupakan prosesor yang langka.. sangat sulit mencarinya saat ini).
Untuk Desktop, intel core2 ini memiliki 2 codename yaitu Allendale (for lower-end) dan Conroe (for high-end).
Allendale memiliki kode prosesor E6300 (1.86 GHz) dan E6400 ( 2.13 GHz), dan keduanya memiliki 2MB L2 cache dengan FSB 800Mhz. Pada januari 2007, intel meluncurkan lanjutan Core2Duo Alledale dengan seri E4xxx. Prosesor ini memiliki bus 800Mhz dengan L2 cache sebesar 2MB)
Sedangkan conroe (E6×00) memiliki FSB 1066Mhz dengan L2 cache sebesar 4MB. Pada april 2007, diluncurkan seri conroe yang baru yakni E6320 dan E6420 (conroe yang memiliki clock lebih kecil 1,8Ghz dan 2,13Ghz). 3 bulan kemudian, intel meluncurkan lagi tambahan list conroe, yakni E6×50 yang memiliki FSB 1333Mhz dengan L2 cache 4MB.
Selain itu ada juga ConroeXE (Core2Extreme), yang merupakan kelas premium dari Core2Duo (yang harganya $999) dengan clock speed 2,93Mhz (tertinggi diserinya), L2Cache 4MB dan Bus sebesar 1066Mhz.
Pada Januari 2008, bisa dikatakan bahwa conroe telah tamat dan muncul core2duo prosesor baru 45nm dengan code name Wolfdale. serinya E7200,(fsb 1066) , E7300 (fsb 1066), E8190, E8200, E8300, E8400, E8500, E8600. Selain seri E7200 dan E7200, semuanya memiliki fsb 1333Mhz dengan L2 cache sebesar 6MB.
Untuk Core2Duo mobile, terdapat beberapa generasi.
Generasi pertama memiliki code name Merom. Ditandai dengan seri prosesor T5×00 yang memiliki L2Cache 2MB, bus antara 533 atau 667Mhz; atau T7×00 yang memiliki L2Cache 4MB dan bus sebesar 667Mhz.
Generasi kedua memiliki codename Merom 2M (T7×50) yang diluncurkan pada awal 2007 dan memiliki L2 cache sebesar 2MB dengan FSB sebesar 667MHz (kecuali T5470 yang berFSB 800Mhz)
Generasi ketiga memiliki codename SantaRosa (T7×00) yang diluncurkan pada May 2007, dengan ciri-ciri memiliki FSB sebesar 800Mhz.
Generasi berikutnya, disebut penryn. Prosesor mobile intel dengan arsitektur 45nm. Bus antara 800Mhz (seri T8×00, T9×00, SU9×00) dan 1066Mhz (SL9×00 dan SP9×00 series). L2 cache antara 3MB atau 6MB.
list Core2Duo prosesor dapat dilihat disini
Pentium Dual Core. 
Kesimpulannya Pentium Dualcore hanya produk lama yang dikurangi performanya untuk menurunkan harga jual
INTEL berencana membuat processor beteknologi 22 nm pada tahun 2011, 16 nm pada tahun 2013, dan 11 nm pada tahun 2015

It's now over one year since Microsoft introduced the first Windows 7 Build. Back at the start of 2008, the next iteration of the Windows client was still in Alpha stage, with the software giant planning a total of three major development milestone releases ahead of moving the operating system into Beta. Fast forward to 2009, and the Redmond company is now cooking Windows 7 Builds from the Release Candidate branch. Microsoft's three-years-after-the-Vista-GA availability deadline for Windows 7 aside, the next version of Windows, namely Windows 6.1, is closer and closer to RTM. Over the past year, testers that had access to Windows 7 milestone builds from the earliest stages of the development process witnessed a constant improvement of the operating system. At the same time, Windows 7 moved slowly but surely away from Windows Vista, and grew into its own. With the platform both API- and feature-complete, and a development strategy similar to that of the Office System, testers have seen very few Build releases, a trend which will continue moving onward, and are bound to see only minor changes to the operating system's architecture.
Microsoft is currently harvesting feedback from various sources, including the Windows 7 feedback mechanism, and is focusing on incorporating tester input into RC-branch builds. And yes, all the Windows 7 development milestones past Beta Build 7000 are Release Candidate Builds of Windows 7, since RC is the next building stage of the operating system. There is little talk of Windows 7 RC, and, in fact, little details available on just how tester feedback is being used to build the next milestone of the operating system. However, testers should not interpret the radio silence from Microsoft as inactivity. In fact, the last thing that Microsoft is doing is to ignore the feedback from users running Windows 7 Beta. The silence, sometimes indeed deafening, is just an aspect of the translucency communication strategy introduced by Steven Sinofsky, Senior Vice President, Windows and Windows Live Engineering Group. But just looking at the Beta of Windows 7, you have to admit that the Windows team with Sinofsky at the helm did nothing short of a superb job, and I must underline superb job, in comparison to Windows Vista Beta 1.
What must be understood from the get go is that the Windows team has its hands full with tester feedback. According to Sinofsky, via Geeksmart, each member on the Windows team has to handle over 500 suggestions on Windows 7 since the Beta was launched. The Send Feedback button has been hit more than half a million times following the public availability of Windows 7 Beta Build 7000. Sinofsky emphasized that the Windows team is placing a strong focus on all suggestions, and incorporating the feedback into Windows 7.
Then again, all you have to do is take a hard look at the evolution of Windows 7 from development milestone to development milestone, as the translucency veil lifted more and more, to get sufficient proof that Microsoft is indeed building what Sinofsky referred to as a “great,” “major” release of Windows.
Windows 7 Milestone 1 Build 6.1.6519.1
And so it began... Windows 7 Milestone 1 Build 6.1.6519.1 was the first consistent sign of Windows life past Windows Vista. At that time, leaked information, screenshots and videos of Build 6.1.6519.1 were welcomed with a great deal of skepticism, with the public arguing that the release was Windows Vista and not Windows 7. And this was indeed the case, as version 6519 was closer to Vista than its successor, especially when it comes down to the graphical user interface. Still, Build 6519.1.x86.fre.winmain.071220-1525 was the real thing, but also the illustrative proof that Windows 7 was indeed Windows 6.1 compared to Vista (Windows 6.0), and the evolution of its precursor.
Windows 7 Milestone 2 Build 6574.1
Following its release to a select group of partners, Build 6519.1.x86.fre.winmain.071220-1525 was leaked to torrent websites, and the same path was reserved for Windows 7 Milestone 2 Build 6574.1. Testers continued to see more Vista than Windows 7 with version 6574, with Microsoft increasingly focusing on under-the-hood changes, at this stage in the development of the operating system. But, between M1 and M2, Microsoft offered a sneak peek of Windows 7, the first official previews of the platform. At that time, the company revealed a video demonstration of Windows 7's touch capabilities, as it was introducing the first major feature that would differentiate Win 7 from its precursors.
Julie Larson-Green, Corporate Vice President, Windows Experience Program Management, demonstrated Windows 7 at the D6 - All Things Digital conference. It was the very first time that Microsoft showed the new Superbar (the enhanced Taskbar) to the public, hinting at the evolution of the operating system's graphical user interface. And just as the build featured in the official presentations, release 6574 did introduce new UI elements, but only minor changes.
August 14, 2008
Is the date when the first words were published on Engineering Windows 7, an initiative which involved the senior engineering managers for Windows 7, Jon DeVaan and Steven Sinofsky, and various members of the Windows team. This was the day Microsoft started “talking” Windows 7, although the details were indeed limited to the engineering process. E7 has since launch been a consistent effort, with deep and comprehensive insights, offering a perspective over the development process of Windows 7. Can't wait for E8!
The official Windows 7 brand
There are undoubtedly more than few that still recall this moment. It was October 13, 2008 and Mike Nash, Corporate Vice President, Windows Product Management, announced that the Windows 7 was leaving its codename behind and that it would be branded as... Windows 7. It was for the first time in the history of Windows that the codename of a product was used as the final name. Nash revealed that the decision was made in search of simplicity.
Windows 7 pre-Beta Milestone 3 Build 6801 and Build 6956
It was the time of the Windows 7 road show, starting with the Professional Developer Conference 2009 and the Windows hardware Engineering Conference 2009 in Los Angeles, at the end of October, respectively the start of November of past year. Microsoft demonstrated Windows 7 to the PDC and WinHEC audiences, and the demos featured the new UI enhancements, like Aero Shake, Aero Snap, Thumbnail Previews, Aero Peek, the Superbar in all of its glory. Most importantly, as far as Microsoft was concerned, Windows 7 pre-Beta Milestone 3 Build 6801 was API complete just in time to be handed over to hardware and software developers. It was a signal from the Redmond company that companies building software and hardware products for Windows 7 could start to adapt their current offerings, as well as develop new ones for Windows 7. Windows 7 Beta Build 7000
As far as Microsoft was concerned, Windows 7 pre-Beta was not feature complete. But the Beta was. Signed off in December 2008, leaked to BitTorrent trackers the same month, and released as a public download on January 10, 2009, Windows 7 Beta is the complete recipe of what Microsoft envisioned the next Windows iteration to be, feature-wise. Microsoft served Build 7000 downloads until February 12, 2009, at which time it discontinued completely access to the bits. Users that have failed to jump aboard, with Microsoft applauding millions of installs, in excess of the initial 2.5 million mark which the company intended to reach, will have a chance to grab the Windows 7 Release Candidate via the company's official channels once it comes out.
Windows 7 Release Candidate
Sinofsky has confirmed that all the post-Beta Windows 7 development milestones are Release Candidate builds of the operating system. However, the Windows boss denied that Windows 7 had reached the Build 7048 mark. Sinofsky stated that ahead of the weekend Microsoft was working on Windows 7 Build 7046, a release which had not been compiled at that time. Still, this is proof that Build 7048 was a fake, and that, at this point in time, it doesn't even exist. The initial Windows 7 roadmap leaked to the public indicated that Windows 7 RC was right on target for April 2009.
