New inkjet printer technology that analysts believe will revolutionize the imaging industry was unveiled today by secretive Silverbrook Research.
The company has released astounding videos of desktop, photo and wide-format printers that appear far faster and cheaper than products from current printer market leaders HP, Canon, Epson and Lexmark.
The nearest competing inkjet with similar speed, from HP, is said to cost $16,000! Silverbrook said their printer will cost $200 to $300!

Asia's Quest for the Ultra-Skyscraper : Photo Gallery
5 / 1
http://images.businessweek.com/ss/07/03/0315_skyscrapers/ind...
Currently eight of the world's 10 tallest skyscrapers are in Asia. The present reigning champ among skyscrapers globally is Taiwan's Taipei 101, a structure that soars 509 meters (1,671 ft). Next up is the monstrously high Burj Dubai, a tower complex slated to reach 800 meters (2624 ft.) in height and easily blow by Taipei 101 as the world's tallest building when it is completed in late 2008. (It was designed by the U.S. architectural firm of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill.)

New state of matter discovered? "like noodles in a soup"
6 / 1
http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2007-03/ns-hrf031407....
There may be a different way of thinking about matter. New theory suggests electrons are not really elementary particles, but are formed at the ends of long "strings" of other, fundamental particles? Scientists have a model in which such strings are free to move "like noodles in a soup" and weave together into huge "string-nets". "Suddenly we realised, maybe the vacuum of our whole universe is a string-net liquid," says one. New experiments by other scientists may have proved them right.

Negative voting on coRank, explained by coRank developer RBA
18 / 0
http://corank.zoomblog.com/archivo/2007/03/13/the-negative-v...
coRank developer Rogelio Bernal Andreo has a blog-post about the problems of negative voting. He says: "Originally I meant the negative vote to be nothing but a "I don't find this interesting" statement. And somehow, I still think that this would be the best way to have coRank deliver good results. But as we shall see, it's not as easy as it seems... Because I fear my negative vote might upset the submitter."

Apple may begin manufacturing Apple TV this week
13 / 1
http://www.appleinsider.com/article.php?id=2559
With last minute graphics-related issues seemingly sorted out, Apple Inc. expects to begin manufacturing ramp up of its long-awaited Apple TV wireless media hub as early as Monday.
The company has faced a series of setbacks that saw the product's launch slip from January to February and, most recently, to mid-March. In nearly all cases, the delay appear to have been software related.
