Have you ever wondered why your speakers on your PC make a weird noise when your cell phone rings?

When a cell phone begins receiving a call, or checks in with a nearby tower, the phone’s RF receiver is turned on and off repeatedly at a very fast rate. This ‘pulsing’ can be picked up by nearby devices that do not have proper shielding. The phone is actually required to transmit at a higher level the farther away it is from the nearest tower, which may translate to a louder buzz.

New technology is changing the way this transmission occurs, and there are now standards in place for manufacturers of equipment like your computer speakers to ensure that they build their products with enough shielding to prevent this buzz from occurring. In the future, the cell phone buzz may be a thing of the past!

Ncomputing

MAXIMUM COMPUTING. MINIMUM COST.
Today's PCs are so powerful that the vast majority of applications only use a small fraction of the computer's capacity. Ncomputing's virtualization software and hardware tap this unused capacity so that it can be simultaneously shared by many users. Each user connects to the shared PC through a small Ncomputing access device. The access device has no CPU, memory, or moving parts—so it is rugged, durable, and easy to deploy and maintain.

Tech Tidbits - ARM's Multicore Chips Aim for Netbooks

The race to faster netbooks and smartphones is making more advanced mobile applications possible…
BARCELONA—ARM, the company that has designed most of the processors in mobile phones, on Monday announced a new, low-cost processor called "Sparrow" at the Mobile World Congress trade show. The company said it is aiming to conquer the netbook market with its multi-core Cortex A9 architecture.
Sparrow is a small, inexpensive chip which shares its instruction set with ARM's top-of-the-line Cortex A8 product, the chip used by the Palm Pre. While one Sparrow chip has about the power of an existing ARM11 (the chip in Apple's iPhone and other leading smartphones), Sparrow can also be used in a multi-core setup to multiply performance.
