< COMMENTARY w

Welcome to2002
t's doubtful anyone could have
anticipated all that's happened
during the past year, and here
we are, entering 2002 and facing a
changed world. Fall Comdex, from
which we have just returned, presented an interesting microcosm of
the various forces now at play,
which is basically a story about a
s s'
weakened teh sector playing host
to an insecure population.
But before I get into that, I'd like to note that we still
found Comdex worth attending. Again this year, the
exhibit area was divided into zones, or "pavilions," that
concentrated exhibitors with similar technologies into
common areas: Bluetooth, USB, Wi-Fi, Palm, and others.
We anticipated that security and videoconferencing
vendors would be the big exhibitors this year, and we may
have been half right. This year's security pavilion was
called Biometropolis, and according to two exhibitors I
spoke with, there was an increased interest in security as
people seem more acutely aware of threats of all types.
But there was not any big push for videoconferencing.

Thathappened a few yearsago,so ma ybe even the vendors consider it old news. Given the drop-oIT in business
travel, though, we think videoconferencing, like security,
will be an option many businesses will revisit in 2002.
One exhibitor I was surprised to see was NTT
DoCoMo, the Japanese telco that rolled out the world' s
first 3G cellular service in Japan last October. The mobile
service is called FOMA (Ireedom of mobile multimedia
access), and includes a number of multimedia services
that a 384Kbps download speed (64Kbps upload) permits. These inriude a lot of the services we already see
available on cellular phones in this country (for example,
weather and traffic reports, online banking, and news)

Caautks unwelaotnaatYahoo autgan sile

Afterseeing Yahoo.ca quoted asan authoritative source oa online business in Canada in
your previous issue, I
think your readers
should b e m ade
aware of some recent
d eveiopments a t

only served more quickly and on tiny colour screens.

NTT had a number of 3G phones on display, many
looking a lot like the Sanyo 5000 colour phones adorning
Telus billboards in various parts of the country. One
model even incorporated a tiny digital camera that could
be used to record both stN images and video clips. I asked
one of the representatives why NTT was at the show,
given the incompatibilities of their service with North
American cellular systems, and she stated simply "to show
what is possible."
There were other technologies we found interesting,
and you can read about these in ow special show report
section.
As an event, it was different than any other Comdex I' ve
attended. First, it was much smaller than in previous
years. Two years ago. organizers reported that attendance
exceeded 200,000, with more than 2,000 exhibitors taking
part. While I haven't seen official figures for this year, one
news report suggested attendance had fallen to somewhere around 100,000. Exhibitors once packed both the
Las Vegas Convention Center and two floors of the Sands
Convention Center, but the Fall 2001 show fit all of them
into the LVCC with room to spare. I walked to the
LVCC one morning, down Sands Avenue and Paradise
Road and encountered just one person who was also
walking. Last year, that mute was teeming with people.
In the weeks leading up to the event, we were informed
by Key3Media, the show organizer. that security would be
tight. All attendees would have to show photo ID and only

security measures would have created a severe bottleneck,

but with the diminished crowds, the only lineups (and
short ones at that) were first thing in the morning.
The Sept. 11 terrorist attacks in New York certainly had
a part to play in the reduced attendance. I read a news
report that said registration for the show fell off by about
30 percent in the weeks following the attacks. The tanking
of the PC industry in 2001 also had an effect, with companies scaling back marketing and travel budgets as a
matter of survival.

ButComdex events were getting smaller even before

Sept. 11, with the 2000 event in Las Vegas and the
Vancouver and Toronto shows in 2001 feehng noticeably
smaller than in previous years. For many years, Comdex
was the main event for anyone who wanted to sell or buy
the latest computer technologies. Today. you can get as
much information olf the Internet. Moreover, digital
technology is a central part of many sectors now, including consumer electronics, telecommunications, photography, and film mahng. There's only so much that a single show can do to cover that expanding base, and meanwhile, other sperialized shows have become better conduits to carry the dig)tel message to their constituents.
In the past, we used Fall Comdex as a reality check on
our own editorial planning for the coming year. It still
serves that function to an extent, but we know, just as
technology consumers do, that revealing the expanding
digital universe needs more than a single discovery point.
Our snooping continues in earnest.

media would be allowed to bring bags or computers into

the exhibit halls. There were metal detectors set up at the
entrance to the convention centre that everyone had to
pass through, and the area was being patrolled by security guards and bomb-sniffing dogs. But no one was
required to show photo ID.
Had there been as many people as in previous years, the

andthe spiritofNAFTA in the face.By reducing the amount of items up for sale, Yahoo
has driven both segers and bidders into the
arms of eBay, and doomed their auction site
to eventual extinction. I can no longer say I' ll
be among the mourners on that inevitable
day. If Canadians are forbidden to sell on

After using a couple of black cartridges,

e turned to tnakscate. It turns out
that my HP printer (842c) is designed to use
the colour cartridge to attain "a better

using black only. I needed to replace the

colour cartridge as one of the colours had run
dry.
Thiswas not explained in the documentation I received with the printer. Perhaps the

Editor, SeanCanuthers, modethe pilgrimoge toComdex Fall2001 in Los Vegos in
mid4fovember to see whot new products,
services, and technologiesmoy be coming
round the comer in the newyear. Following
ore somehighlights from the show floor.

Anoto pushesdlgaof ink

LAS VEGAS Comdex has traditionally been
a place to see what's on the digital horizon, and while the show was noticeably
smaller than last year's event, innovation
continued to be showcased.

One of the most ambitious projects we

encountered is being led by Anoto, a sub-

sidi
ary ofSwedish company CTechnologies.
Anoto's goal is to build an infrastructure
that will auow anything you write by hand
to be captured digitally and sentto a computer, cell phone, or electronic organizer.
"We want to create a global de facto

standard for pen and paper," says Nino

Taranti
no, Anoto's Boston, Mass.-based
vice-pr
esident of business development.

But building such a standard requires coordination of three big building blocks: pen,
paper,and data communications system.

Thepen used forthe demonstrationswas

Ericsson's Chatpen, a writing instrument
with a few electronic twists. It has a microcamera near the writing tip, and also houses a microprocessor and a Bluetooth radio

module. As you write, the ink Rows from

the ball point as normal, but the camera
alsorecordsthe movement overthe surface

of the paper.
Andthat'
s the second part ofthe equation. Special paper printed with a barely

visible patter
n ofdotsisneeded to provide
co-ordinate reference points for the camera. The camera doesn't record the ink as it

is being laid down on paper, but creates a

matching digital trace from the reference
dots on the paper.

Tarantino cans it"smart papeV'because

the dots are notjust X-Y coordinate markers, but may also be spedfic data that
would be used by applications, such as
forms processors.
The third component is the Bluetooth
communication system. In its simplest
form, it could be a wireless transmission
from the pen to a Bluetooth-enabled PC.
One area Anoto hopes to quickly move into
is paper-based organizers, where the
Chatpen system would eliminate the distinction between paper-based and eiectronic organizers.
What you write in a paper organizer
would immediately become part of your
computer-based personal information manager. During Comdex Fail 2001, Anoto

Stop thief.
Essential steps for protecting your PC assets

arly one morning in l 984, a

stranger came to Concord, Ont. to

visit Canada's first personal computer-based typesetting company, which
my wife and I had established a year earlier. He didn't stay long, just long enough
to heave a cement block through the window, jump in, and steal our state-of-theart (for 1984) 8086 portable and 286
typesetting PCs.
When we arrived to survey the scene
the next morning, we had to sadly admit
that we had made it easy for the thief. No
burglar alarm, computers visible to the
outside parking lot and road, no appropriat
e insurance coverage,and no external backups of the last ?0 days'work. Yup,
we were innocent in those days, and stupid. With the benefit of hindsight, my
advice is simple: don't let this happen to
you.

necessary, and recognize that there are

additional ongoing costs, in time as well
as in dollars, involved in any security

Hopefor the besLphn for theToorst

plan.
RIBS(keep it simple, silly): Always

The first step in protecting yourself and

your computer systems is t o t h ink
through a basic security plan:
Risk How much could it cost you, if
something goes wrong? How much financial or personal loss will you suffer if your
computer is stolen, or if your home office
or business is burned down?
If you' re a hobbyist or student, the
answer may be, "not much." If yow PC is
central to your livelihood, then neglecting
security could bankrupt you.
Budget: How much time and money

do you have to hnplement your security

p)an? Budget your security plan like you
would any other part of your business or
household management. Include ongoing
training for yourself and employees, if

keep in mind that a security plan is only

as good as the people using it. If someone
turns a burglar alarm off and props a

door open on a hot day, then goes to

lunch, your system is void. If you attach a
biometric fingerprint sensor to a PC, then
lose the password, you have shut down
the PC as effectively as if it had been
stolen.

Concenttic cirdes

Unfriendly environments
The criminal element is not the only risk to
yourcomputer and its data. Securing the
environment so your computer avoids dam-

ageisa basicneed thatisoften ovedooked

in the home oflice. Low-cost measures

include:
An anti-static plastic floor pad, especially useful in Canadian winters.
An uninterruptible power supply (UPS)

keepssystems running in the event ofa

power outage, and protects against

hardware damage or data loss due to
power fiutuations.
Environmental controL avoid exposing
computersto excessive heat, humidity,
water,or conosion (fr
om street salt
tracked in to the of?ice for example).

Let's start with a single PC as the focus of

concern, then work outward, to site security, insurance, and other services.
One way to protect a PC's data against
theft or damage by unauthorized users is
to deny an intruder the ability to physically use your computer. A wide range of
biometric security devices are available to
determine whether the person at the keyboard is authorized to use the PC, and if
they aren' t, to prevent them from accessing the computer.
According to the Webopedia tech dictionary (nwwwebopedis.coin), "In computer
security, biometrics refers to authentication techniques that rely on measurable
physical characteristics that can be automatically checked. Examples include
computer analysis of f ingerprints or
speech."
If the would-be user's fingerprint,
voiceprint, retinal scan, or face scan does
not match the list of authorized users, he
or she is denied access by the biometric
device.
Biometric technology can also be used
for authentication for entry into or exit
from restricted or controfied areas, making electronic purchases, or transferring
funds or goods.
Companies such as Siemens and
SecuGen already o&'er mice with built-in
fingerprint scanners, and in the future
these scanners will also be appearing on
some notebook computers. The computerwould analyzeyour fingerprint to grant
you permission to use the computer.
Authorization could also be tied to credit
card permissions, or facilitating electronic purchases.
Examples of biometric products currently available for PC users include:

Biometric technology works, and makes
sense for installations where security is a
primary concern. and where the IT budgets and infrastructure exist to keep it
operating properly all the time.
For example, the British government
has made extensive use of face recognition technology as part of its anti-terrorist operations. The Sagem Morpho company (waw.morpho.com) sens a Morpho
Civil AFIS fingerprint recognition system
for government social agencies, to reduce
fraud by users who adopt multiple identities to collect multiple benefits.
However, for the small business or
home office, biometric technology should
be examined carefully in terms of return
on investment. In many cases, a better
option is a combination of lower tech
security (locks and alarms), combined
with software-based security measures,

such as passwords and encryption.

Biometric devices are increasingly finding their place as an identification technology for governments and corporations, not as anti-theft technology for
individual PC owners. If this trend continues, expect vigorous debates over the
civil liberty and privacy implications of
biometric surveillance in the post-Sept.
I I world.

One of the simplest, cheapest, and lowest

maintenance security measures is to fit
valuable equipment (printers, copiers,
scanners, monitors, and desktop and laptop PCs) with cable lock or anchor plate
systems. Virtually all notebook computers have anchor points for cable locking
systems, and desktop PC and printers can
be bolted to anchor pad systems that are
strong yet unobtrusive.

devices. Every person has aunique pattern to the iris and retina of each eye,
and the algorithms (mathematical sets
of rules) for recognizing these patterns
is now very good. Some big problems
with eye scanning systems, however,
are their complexity, cost, and tendency to break down. They work great in
spy movies, but are so far a less
attractive option in real life, especially
for small businesses.
SpeakEZ Secure Voice Solutions (wwwtneiizcom) is a software-only produrt
that compares a stored sample of an
authorized user's voice to a live sample,
to permit access. It uses most microphone and sound card systems, and is
language independent.
FaceOn face recognition software from
Symtron
Technology
(wuw.symlientech.corn) of Taiwan, offers
high quality recognition of facial featuresfrom a video image.

if stolen, it may aid in recovery if the
equipment is sold to someone else.

Out ofsight, oui of (ahninel) mimi

One of the simplest ways to reduce the
threat of theft is to be invisible. In a home
office, don't set up your equipment where
it is visible to someone who comes to the
door, or visible through a window. Most
thieves case potential targets, often stealing to order for a "customer." If they don't
know it's there, they' re less likely to
choose you as a victim.
One of the most attractive items for
thieves is the laptop computer: easy to
carry, and readily resold for a substantial

amount of money. In the offfce, laptops

should always either be locked away in a
secure storage cabinet when not in use, or
locked down using some of the cable and
lock systems discussed in this article.
When on the move with a laptop, never
leave it or iis carrying bag visible in your
car. Always lock it in the trunk, before you
start on your trip. If the would be thief

has no way to guesswhich of many car

trunks has alaptop in it, he is not likely to
bother trying to get at them.

recordable DVD drives, which can store

the drives cost between $170 and $400,
depending on speed and other features.

quite a bit pricier, both for the hardware
(around $900 or more) and the recordable DVD media ($25 to $35 per disc).

Once you have a CD or DVD burner,

you should set up a backup schedule and
stick to it (at least once a week; daily if
you produce significant amounts of
important data), and move a copy over to
a locked storage unit at another location.

Pull up the drutubrtdge

One of the best ways to protect your PC is
to keep unwanted people out of the place
it is located. A deadbolt lock on the computer room door is a basic. A security system or burglar alarm is a must for any size
of business. Systems ranging from a few
hundred dollars to many thousands, plus
monthly security service charges, are
worth considering if your computerbased business is worth the money.

Bed tluy TV
Oneway to tell if someone has been using
your computer, or to capture footage of a
thief in action, is to set up a motion-activated video surveillance system that can
capture activity o n y ou r p r emises.
Remote-security.corn
(ww w.remotese(urit)/.com) ofFers corporate surveillance
systems for this purpose.
Smart video monitoring, where the
computer actually has8 degree of understanding of what it is "seeing," is a major
goal of military-oriented research. The
U.S. DARPA agency has funded a program by Texas Instruments for Robust
Video Motion Recognition and Event

Detection (wwwti.corn/research/docs/iuba/).
This may lead to products that can
analyse what the computer sees and
decide whether it's a security threat.

IruureTeurseU
Once of the best investments you can
make, both in terms of guarding against
catastrophic Gnancial losses from theft or
Ere aswell as to increase peace of mind, is
to properly insure your computer system.
For a home PC setup, most insurers will
add a "rider" to your basic policy to
insure replacement value of your equipment. The price is usuagy quite modest.
Though home insurance will not cover all
costs, such as those related to the interruption of a home business due to data
loss, it does help. If you have a more substantial computer-based business, commercial insurance policies that include
clauses for interruption of business costs
areavailable and areworth themoney.

CeusteutTdgileuce
In general, as the value of your computerrelated activities increases, so should your

concern for the physical security of your

system. It's OK to be laissez-faire when
you are just doing email and playing

games with your PC. When your family' s

Bnancial welfare or your company's succes'
sisatstake,you need to focus,createa
plan,and make secure computing partof
your daily routine. 0

Making security a new year's resolution

Antivirus software, firewall solutions for small and home networks
BYTemVeeeBs

estimate of the total financial lossesthat

people around the world experienced
when he let his creation loose. Some suggest it's closer to hundreds of millions,
and the US$80 million was simply the t
scale for damages for someone being sen-

K. we' ve aU heard it before: that

security is a serious issue and
should not be taken lightly. But
just in case you' ve forgotten how important it is to protect your computers and
networks, let's do a quick review of some
facts. And since we like to make resolutions when the new year strikes, perhaps
it is also time to make a resolution to take
security seriously.
According to the2001 Compurer Crime
and Security Survey, put out by San
Francisco, C a lif.-based C o mputer
Security Institute (CSI, at wwwgncsi.com),
nearly 85 percent of 538 computer security experts surveyed said they had experienced some kind of security breach in the
last year. Nearly 64 percent said the
breach led to financial losses.
And we' re not talking a few bucks here.
When Melissa virus creator, Richard
Power, was sentenced, he pleaded guilty to
causing some US$80 migion in losses.
That figure is probably not an accurate

op

tenced under U.S. federal guidelines.

Hedts eed viruses
The two security issues we should be
most concerned about are deliberate
backsand viruses.
For many people especially those
withan "always-on" DSL or cableconnections to the Internet~ e fiberate backs
are the most troubling security issue.
Every day, personal systems and small
networks are p inged, probed, and
scanned by those looking to get in and do
some mischief.
Who is doing this? According to James
Cavanagh, a global telecommunications
consultant with the Consultant Registry
(wwwconsultant-registry.corn, these attacks are
likely the result of teenagers looking to
have some fun. He estimates that some

100,000 teens are using programs they

have pulled from the Internet to break
into systems. These "script kiddies" often
do it for fun. Where teens once hung out
at the mall, they are now hanging out on
computers looking to get into your email
account and personal 61es.
What can you do to protect yourself
&om these little mischief-makers? Well,
investing in a 6rewaU is a good start.
Today, there are several software-based
security solutions that anyone can use
and that don't require a high level of IT
expertise or large amounts of time and
money to set up and maintain.
Symantec Corp. is a good place to start
when you are thinking about security
solutions. Its Norton Personal Firewafi
2002 protects your computers kom outside intrusions, such as mahcious hackers.
It aUows you to control both inbound and
outbound I nternet connections and
blocks port scans, a technique many
hackers use to see if there are unprotected
machines they can break into. But the key
components for small businesses are

application alert and application contro! the former ask you whether you
want to permit or deny an application or
communication to the Internet, and the

latter let you stop an application or program Born accessing the Internet.
You should insist on application control when looking at a software-based
6rewaU. This is because hackers accessing
a computer or network often try to take
over a program or application to either
anack the system further or to use the
compromised system as a platform to
attack other systems. For a denial of service attack, for example, a hacker takes over
a computer or network, then launches an
attack against other systems from that
compromised system. As larger companies get serious about securing their systems, hackers are increasingly turning to
home computers and smaU business networks to launch such attacks because they
are less secure.

marketing and business development

with the San Frandsco, Calif.-based Zone

Labs Inc. (www.zcaelsbs.corn) says application control is a key feature in its popular,
easy-to-use ZoneA)arm.
"The ZoneAlarm solution works by
asking a very simple question: What
applications do you trust to access the
Internet," Felman adds. "This greatly simplifies security for small businesses. It
reduces security to a set of simple questions like do you want your Internet
Explorer to access the Internet> Do you
want your g uicknooks to access the
Internet> Or do you want some unknown
program called Sub7 t o access the
internet? With something like Sub7, you
don't know what it is and you certainly
will want to stop it from accessing anything."
Zone Labs says it h as simplified
ZoneAlarm 3.0 and ZoneAlarm Pro 3.0 so
they are more intuitive to use, thereby
making it easier secure a system or network Both versions feature updated tutorials and improved wizard functions for
easy setup. They also have a home-page
style overview screen that offers a quick
glance at security details and includes
more information on the kind of alerts
ZoneAlarm can generate.
Both versions monitor applications and

components to prevent a hacker &om

planting a Trojan-horse type virus onto a
system in o rder t o a ttack i t l ater.
ZoneAlarm 3.0 comes with several other
features, induding support for LAI4 and
wirdess networks, both of which are now
common in smafi businesses.
A free version of ZoneAlarm can be
downloaded from the company's Web
site. The Pro version is US$39.95 for a
single licence and annual updates and
renewals are US$19.95. (Prices for multiseat licences are listed at Zone Labs' site.)
Another software firewafi worth considering is Tiny Personal Firewafi 2.0. Ben
Haidri, vice-president of business development with Santa Clara, Calif.-based
Tiny Software (www.tiaysoftwsre.cern), says
his company is unique in offering a bidirectional firewafi capable of filtering
both applications and protocols for the
smalland home olfi
cemarket .
"A good firewafi must check for application spoofing and needs to be doing
such things as checking for MD5 hashes
on applications to make sure that Trojans
have not shown up and [are not] trying to
take over an application," Haidri says. aA
lot of companies have 'personal firewafis,'
but very few are true firewafi technology."
Tiny Personal Firewafi allows users toi
set rules for what Internet addresses can
be trusted, remote administration, and

Another advantage of the Tiny Personal
Firewafi is that it is tiny only ),324KB
before installation. This is very attractive
to small businesses with mobile workers
or where hard drive space is at a premium. The Tiny Personal Firewafi can be
loaded onto laptops allowing for more

Some small business owners may not
want to put a f irewall on individual
machines thereby giving users the
opportunity to change settings, approve
illegal communications, or simply turn

the firewall off.

Dana Epp,president and chief executive of Merilus Inc. (wwwmeriluscom) in
Vancouver, B.C., understands these concerns. He says his company's solution,
Gateway Guardian, offers more centralized control by turning one computer
into an Internet gateway and ffrewall
appliance that can be used to protect
other machines on a network.
Gateway G u ardian co me s in
Professional and VPN conf/gurations,

and can be set up quickly by anyone with

basic networking knowledge. With the
Professional edition, rules for access to
the Internet or systems an be customized
using a set of templates. It also allows for
remote configuration and automatic
updates.
The VPN edition is designed for a small
business with a remote office or mobile
workers. In addition to the features
offered in the Professional edition, it
includes IPSEC VPN Endpoint and PPTP
and IPSEC VPN tunnel pass-through
functionality.
A hig plus: both versions work on older
systems, including older 486-based hardware.If you have an older computer at
home, you can turn it into 4 ftrewall to
protect the other computers in your
home network when they go out onto the
Net. You can huy Gateway Guardian
through authorized resellers (listed on
the company Weh site) or order it directly from Merilus. The Professional edition
is US$265 and the VPN is US$365 when
ordered from Merilus.

Beyondthe Byewall
Firewalls are simply the Erst level of protection for your computers and networks and shouldn't he the only one. A
firewall should he used in conjunction
with antivirus software, preventing your
system or network hom heing infected hy
viruses and malicious code that arrives as
an email attachment. There are several
good antivirus solutions available.
Symantec's Norton AntiVirus 2002, for
example, is compatible with Windows XP
and has useful features such as automatic
email scanning, Script Blocking, and
automatirepairof damage caused by
viruses. It i n cludes automatic virus
updates and integrates into Windows
Explorer so users can run a virus scan
without having to launch the antivirus
program itself. It also supplies system status information and lets you know when

Better known for

Creative none-

theless plays in a
few other arenas.
Its newest camera, the PC-Cam
300, doubles as
both atethered Webcam and a untethered
still camera.
The PC-Cam comes with 8 MB of
onboard flash memory, which holds
about 128 shots at the camera's maximum
untethered resolution of 640x480 (or if

you prefer, up to 75secondsof audio and

video, or up to 34 minutes of straight
audio). Back at your desktop, you can
drop it into the included baseand hook it

Logitech is a big

player in the
peripheral cate-

gory, from mice

to keyboards to
the now-ubiquitous QuickCam.
The
ClickSmart is a
direct descendant of the QuickCam, but now instead
of being tethered to the PC, you can also
quicklydetach the camera component
and use it as a standalone still camera.
Because of this dual nature, the
Clickgmart 510 looks more like a tradi-

tional camera than the QuickCam. It can

capture still images of up to 1.3 megapixels, and video at up to 640x480 pixels.
Hook it up to the PC via USB and it can
be used as aWebcam or with applications
like NetMeeting.
This all similar to other dual-mode
cameras we've looked at, but the Logitech
ClickSmart 510 has one advantage: it uses
removable media instead of internal flash
memory. It comes with an 8 M B
SmartMedia card, which you can easily
replace with a higher-capacity card if you
want to take more pictures in the fidd.
The camera i s compatible with
Windows 98, Me, 2000, and XP. It's powered by four AAA batteries.

Estimatedprice: U5599
If you' re looking for an ultra-compact
MP3 player with the abiTity to store a lot
of songs, the Nex II may be what you

CF card or microdrive included, but if

programmable, and features useradjustable EQ settings.You can get data to

the player via USB or by copying your

audio flles directly to the media using a
CF reader attached to your PC.

it's that it doesn't support folders, which
means that if you' re using a 1 GB microdrive, you'fl have to wade through a lot of
tracks on the mini LCD screen to flnd the
one you want. (With the microdrive, any
shocks to the player may also result in
stuttering, which means you may be better off with high-capacity CF cards. over-

the last complete virus scan was done

oper indude easy-to-use antivirus protection and daily automatic updates so you
can keep up with new viruses as they are

(and why you should do it regularly).

From PandaSoftware Canada (www.pam
dssoltware.mm) comes Panda Antivirus in
Platinum and Titanium editions. Both

released.
Panda president, Francois lourtau, says
you should make sure your antivirus

solution does more than just compare

possgsle viruses to a database of known
ctdprits. Instead, look for antivirus software with a "heuristic" engine, which will
also look for teBtale signs a virus leaves
when it begins to infect a computer or

cious codes will begin to perform certain

tasks: rewriting the registry, accessing the
email address book o f Mi c rosoft
Outlook, trying to access the Internet or
an unknown server throu@ a program. If
this happens, a heuristic engine alerts the
user or adminstrator, allowing the system
to be shut down or the process isolated
before the real damage is done.
If you think a system is infected, but
you haven't installed antivirus software,
take a look at HouseCa)L This online
offering from Cupertino, Calif.-based
Trend Micro I nc. (www.trendmicro.com)
recently took first prize in an online
antivirus test conducted by AV-Test.org.
HouseCag uses Internet Explorer or
Netscape and the ActiveX technology
built into both browsers to scan a
machine's hard drive. If your browser
does not have ActiveX, HouseCaB offers a
downloadable Java installer to conduct
the scan. If HouseCag finds a virus, it tells
you about and how to get rid of it. It wiB
even helpyou create a Rescue Disk for
repairing a co m promised system.
(However, it has to be created on an uninfected machine.)
Finally, even if you instag a firewag,
antivirus software, and other security
solutions, in the end it aB comes down to
the human factor. Security is process, not
a singe solution or set of solutions. It is
amazing how often the best security
setups fail because someone was not following the pmcedures.
Some of the most basic procedures are
the following:
Never shut off your antivirus progf allis.

Never open an email attachment lrom

someone you do not know.
Automate a ntivirus a nd f ir e waB
updates. It's one of the best ways to
protect yow system.
If employees are mobile or work in a
remote location, insist that they log in
and areauthenticated before they can
accessthe company network
Change p
asswords often and keep them
secret.
Taking any of these steps could save
you a considerable amount of gdef, time,
and money. Don't follow any of these

steps and you might as well leave your

doors unlocked. 0

heard the name,

I
our reaction was,
" but afi o f o ur
are
pants
mobile!" In reality, th e M o bile
Pant is for people
who live a mobile
lifestyle, with a
lot of gadgets and
other items that
would b ecome
poket-clutter in
a regular pair of
pants. In the past,
you' ve been able to buy cargo-style pants
with lots of pockets, but they' ve typicaUy
been an informal kind of pant, and not
suited for business.
The Mobile Pant solves that problem
with a business-casual pant with a number of i nternal and hidden pockets

designed to take up the excess technology

you have without making you look hke
you' re about to go fishing.
Tnfo of the hidden pockets are inside
the regular hip-level pocketholes,hidden
behind discrete zippers designed to look
like a seam, and are big enough to hide
your wallet, a pair of sunglasses, or even a
small digital camera. There is also astowawaypocket running along the right outside seam of the pants, large enough to
hide a PDA or cell phone. AU of the pockets are made from mesh.
The hidden pocket format is nice, even
if you don't have a lot of gadgets it
allows you to separate the contents of
your pockets into smaller piles, and if
you' re concerned about keeping money
or cert
ain papers safe,you can put them
in the secret pockets. The pants are
designed to carry a fair amount of weight,
though they will start to look like the are
bulging if you cram too much into the
pockets. The biggest worry you'U have is
making sure ag of the pockets are empty
before throwing them in the wash! One
complaint: the Mobile Pant is available in
men's sizes only, which is unfortunate if
you' re a gadget-loving gaL

there's no technology aspect

here, t h ough:
Sanyo has a deal
with

pocket specificagy designed for your cellularphone, and a pocket for your sunglasses.
Most of these pockets, apart from the
cash and Palm pockets, are included in
the removable lining, so if you want to
lighten up the coat for warmer weather,
you' ll lose a few pockets in the process.
The Sanyo raincoats are extremely well
designed, and for that reason alone,
they' ll cost you more than the average
jacket. For th e mobile professional,
though, it may be indispensable. (Note:
while Sanyo also has a raincoat line for
women, these models don't feature the
Multi-Function Pocket System. Alas.) 0

Pocket System in its raincoats, with one

pocket designed speclfically to hold a
Palm handheld unit.
There are number of different models
available, each available in three colours
(black,mulch, and bark). We had a
chance to look at the Stockbridge model
(US$375). The coat features a number of
pockets marked with special buttons to

A tablet for the rest of us

If you want to create art on a computer

screen, you really need to throw away
your mouse and replace it with a graphics
tablet. Because theseperipherals are pressure-sensitive, they allow you to draw
lines that change over their length, just
like ink on paper. No more sterile, perfect
computer shapes.

and more for artwork and precisioncomputer aided design (CAD) work But for
the most part, these were high-end, professional tools at a high-end price.
Wacom's new Graphire2 would like to
be the graphics tablet for the rest of us.
It's affordable and comes in a choice of
iMac-like colours. Connecting to a computer through a powered USB port, it' s
compatible with recent PCs (Windows 98
or later) and Macs (OS 8.5 to 10.1).
Owners of older Macs and PCs may still
be able to Find the original serial-port
model. It includes a cordless, battery-less
pressure-sensitive pen (complete with
digital eraser) and mouse, and comes
bundled with PC and Mac versions of
Adobe Photoshop LE and Corel Painter
Classic, so users can plunge right into
I'teeing up their artistic souls.
It will also work with any other graphic
software, particularly products that support pressure sensitivity, a feature that
mouse usersnever knew was there. AU the
Painter tools are pressure sensitive, but so
are several Photoshop, PaintShop Pro,
and CorelDraw tools. In Photoshop, for
instance, more pressure produces a darker rubber stamp or a fatter stroke. Like in
the real world, a light touch results in
lighter, almost transparent lines. While
you can get these effects by mousing
around, the process is hardly intuitive.
With a tablet and pen, you just draw.
Graphics tablets like the Graphire2 can
also be used with business applications.
Microsoft'sOffice XP, for example, supports handwriting recognition, letting
you write with the Graphire's pen onto
the tablet into the new versions of Word
and Excel. In Powerpoint, you can write
onto presentation slides. Similarly, the

more than a decade, with pens for beehand drawing, pucks for tradng, and yes,
even mice.They've been connected to
PCs, Macs, Amigas, Unix workstations,

for electronic ink on so-caged ePaper.

With this technology, you can mark up
Acrobat documents with the digital pen.
The tablet's transparent overlay is easily used for tracing put a photo under

mouse, with three programmable buttons, and a scroll wheel is a precise, optical model, and connects to the Graphire
(and the computer) wirelessly, making it
the match of standalone models from the
likes of Microsoft and Logitech.
While featuring precise, 1,01 5 dots per

inch (dpi) resolution, Wacom'spopularly

priced Graphire is aimed more at home
users and hobbyists than at professional
artists and CAD-users. That's because of
its size: it's active area of 9.2x12.8 cm

Of course, Wacom would be happy to
help users who need more. Its Intuos2
line offers twice the pressure sensitivity,
and tablets with active areas from 10x12.7
cm (4x5 in.) to a massive 30.5x45.7 cm
(12x18 in.), at prices ranging from $300

yours forabout $2,900.
But given it s l imited size, the
Graphire2's affordable price, easyinstagation, range of features, and bundled software should make it a fun tool to help

Emboldened by its success (with some
24 migion registered users), ACD Systems
took a big risk late in September. With
ACDSee 4.0, it tried to turn what had
been a handy little Bie viewer into s much
more substantial Swiss Army Knife-like
graphics suite. For the most part, the

gamble has paid oif.

Still, the main thing ACDSee does-

letting you instantly view image formats

including JPEG,TIFF, and PNG, aswell as
many less common formats like ART,
SGI, and TGA hasn't changed in this
new version. ACDSee can also browse

One of our favourite features is the

swivel-tilt LCD viewing screen, which
allows you to hold the camera at unusual
angles for example,above your head or
near the ground for a worm's eye viewand still see your composition.
Among the pre-programmed shooting
modes are scenics, which set the camera
for maximum depth of Beld, and a
panorama mode (which we Brst saw on
Casio digital cameras), where you can
stitch together several &ames into a single
larger image. In panorama mode, the
image of a shot you' ve just taken remains
in view on the LCD screen to help you
line up the next shot.
Canon's RAW format allows advanced
amateurs to access the raw image data as
it comes off the image sensor, before it is
processed by the camera's software. This
permits certain Bmdamental changes to
the image, such as resetting the white balance. With the RAW format, you can do
things like set the white balance after
you' ve taken the picture. The main disadvantage of the format, however, is the
inconvenience of having to acquire the

images using a twain driver, since image

editors do not understand the format.

Canon's PowerShot line has recently
included a number of very compact models, including one of ou r p erennial
favourites, the S100 (which has been
replaced by the S110). While it's not quite
as small as the S100/Sl IO, the S40 is still
fairly tiny, and easily 6ts into a coat pocket. That it's a four megapixel model is all
the more impressive.

The shutter and zoom are both located

on the top of the camera, within easy
reach of the fore6nger. It has a directional tilt-panel located on the edge between
the top and the rear of the camera, which
allows you to scroll through menus and
can be depressed in the centre to make
selections. Another nice touch is that the
lens cover doubles as the on/off switch for
the camera.
O ne interesting thing about t h e
powerShot S40 is its playback mode.
Instead of switching a selector dial &om
recordto playback,you keep the selector
dial in the mode you had it in (manual,

night, movie, etc.), and depress another

button on the back of the camera This
puts you into playback mode but agows
you to stay ready to capture a shot while
in playback mode, you can depress the
shutter to capture the next image. It
means you never have to miss a shot while
fumbling for the selector diaL

Should this camera be included in a

roundup of four-plus megapixel cameras?
We raise the question because the camera
will take six megapixel images, although
the image sensor carries just 33 megapixels. However, it is Fujifllm's unique
Su per CCD image sensor, and t hat

requires some explanation.

According to Fujifgm, the SuperCCD
uses individual sensors that are both larger and oriented differently than in a standard CCD image sensor. The individual
SuperCCD sensors are octagonal and
arranged in a honeycomb pattern. In a

normal CCD design, they are rectangular

According to Fuj(Sm, the SuperCCD is

feature,because itmakes panorama creation a real snap. When you' re in panoram a mode,
theedge ofeach shot featuresa
ghost image from the other side of the
previous shot, allowing you to line up
each shot exactly, creating exceptionally
smooth panoramas right on the camera.
The controls on the Casio QV-4000 sre,
for the most part, very economical and
easy to use. There is a tiny button on the
rear of the camera, much like the nubstyle mouse controller on a notebook
computer, which can be tilted and
depressed for scrolling through menus
and making selections. A "layered" selector dial allows you to choose between
camera modes (manual versus automatic
on one layer, and n ormal/movie/
burst/panorama on the other). We could
quibble that the on/off switch might be
mistaken for a zoom control, but it's easy
enough to get that straight when you' ve
been using the camera for a bit.

the technology's capabibty.
We spent a lot of time with the FinePix
6900, taking nearly ),000 images with it.
Based on this, we think the camera can
compete in this group of four-plus
megapixel models.
Some of the appealing features of this

camera are tbe 6X optical zoom and a fast

image processor. Fujffilm seems to have
done its homework on its colour processing too, because the 6900's output is gor-

The last time we did a digital camera

roundup, the Minolta line was fairly
basic... lower resolutions, not too many
features, and fairly competitive prices.
Midway through 2001, Minolta introduced new models that went from the
back of the pack right to the cutting edge
ofthe consumer market.The Dimage 7 is
the top end of the new line.
The Dimage 7 features an LCD monitor as well as an optical viewfinder, and
when the viewfinder mode is set to automatic, it will switch between the two
when youreye comes up to the opticaL
The optical viewfinder uses a smaller
LCD display, which givesyou a true whatyou-see-is-what-you-get image, but suffers a bit from graininess. This becomes
problematic in manual focus mode,
because you may not be able to focus with
as much preci
sion as you'd like when
using the optical viewfinder.
That's the only real concern we had

with the camera, thong)I. Otherwise, the

picture quality was excellent, and the
usab?Tity was topnotch. Those used to
analogue SLR models will appreciate the
analogue-style zoom and the focus ring,
especiagy.

like it should be a manual zoom or focus

control but is actually just decorative.
The real zoom control, located on a
lever near the shutter, provides up to 3X
optical, but has a bit of a latency problem once you depressthe lever, it takes a
portion of a second to react. This may be
the only real problem with the camera, as
it has all of Olympus' usual features,
induding manual control over most of
the photo settings, aswell as the abiTity to
capture images in TIFF mode. If you' re
planning to take most of your shots in the
amera's highest resolution, though,
you' ll probably want to upgrade the
SmartMedia card to something that will
hold more shots.

Although, Olympus has also recently
introduced the B-20, a much more expensive and professional-level four-megapixel digital camera, the C-4040 Zoom is a
better choice for those looking for the
same resolution at a lower price. The
camera weight,shape,and size feelsgood
in the hand. It has afew design points that
suggest a 35 mm SLR, most notably the

high-quality Carl Zeiss lens is larger

because it has 5X optical zoom capability
and a manual focus ring. Because it's so
much heavier than the body, the tripod
mount has been moved to the lens component. Making this configuration more
usable, the lens swtvds up and down.
The Cyber-shot has a number of other
nice features, induding one that automatically zooms in on the item in the centre
of the screen when using manual focus so
you can be sure you' re getting the right
picture element in focus. The flash is also
tucked into the lens until you need it if
the camera senses you need it, the flash
automatically pops up when you pressthe
shutter. If you'd prefer to use an external
Bash, a mounting seat is included.
One complaint about this model is that
the 16 MB MemoryStick storage is a bit
small for a five megapixd camera (it only
holds seven shots at the highest resolu-

tion), so you'B pmbably want to buy a

Sony made its name in the digital camera
world with the Iloppy disk-based Mavica,

bigger card. At the time of writing, 128

MB cards were about 5250 eadh CJ

but where the company is making real

strides is with its Cyber-shot line. The
DSC-F707 is one of the newest models in
that line, and at &re megapixels, is pushing the resolution envelope. It's also push-

ing the designenvelope, asSony haswith

several earlier models.
The Brat thing you'B notice is that the
DSC-F707 is particularly lens-heavy. 'IIM

only with Canon's digital camerasprimarily models in the A, G, and S series.

Seond, like the Polaroid unit, the prints it
makes are quite smaB,barely bigger than a
business card: 8.6x5.4 cm (3.4x2.1 in.).
However, they are of excellent quality.
The printer uses a dye-sublimation

pmcess.The image is created by applying

three transparent dye layers, plus a protective overcoat to the paper base. In order to
make a print, you connect the camera to
the printer using the supplied USB cable,
then control the printer via the menu that
appears on the camera's LCD screen.
We used the CP-10 with an S300 Diip'tal
Hpb. The S300 is a slightly larger version
of Canon's original S100 Hph, which is
about the same width and height as a
credit card. The S300 uses tbe same 2.1
megapixd sensor, but ofFers a 3x optial
zoom, compared to the S100's 2x zoom
(the S100 has been refreshed and is now
the S110). We were very enthusiastic
about the S100 when we first tested it, and
the S300 trades olf a slightly bigger body
for a longer zoom lens.
If you already own a Canon digital
camera, the CP-10 will make a tidy carryalong printer that makes excellent prints.
And like the Polaroid, because the prints
from the CP-10 are relatively small, you' ll
get great looking prints, even kom the
budget-priced A series cameras.
Canon seems to be trying to make the
product appeal to a youth/fun audience,
as it also offers adhesive-backed paper for
printing images as stickers. Canon also
makes a dye-sublimation printer that outputs up to 4x6 prints.

If aB you ever want are 4x6 prints, the
PhotoSmart 100 is worth checking out.
While it might be argued that $300 is a lot
to pay for an inkjet printer that prints
only on 4x6 paper, this one-trik pony
does its duties very welL
Another desirable feature is its compact

size 22.4x12x23 cm (8.8x4.7x9.1 in.)whichmeans itcan betucked away unobtrusively, something that's harder to do
with a full-size inkjet.
The unit includes memory card slots
for Type I and II CE SM, and Sony
Memory Stick It uses a single threecolour (cyan, magenta and yeBow) ink
cartridge. We were initially dubious that
this ink system could produce decent
blacks. but the print samples were excellent better in our estimation than the
PhotoSmart 1315 discussed below.
Setup is as straightforward as plugging
the unit in and installing the cartridge. A
monochrome LCD readout shows a simple menu system through whih you
select size of print (choices are 4x6, wafietsize, and thumbnail), range of images to
be printed, and number of copies. In our
test, the PhotoSmart 100 printed 10 borderless prints in 27.5 minutes for an average of just under three minutes per print.
HP's 4x6 printer paper is actually

paper on rolls, and we tested a 10 cm x 8

finislz The printer can print right to the

edgesof the paper, so youcan queue up a

number of imagesand out will come a roll
of borderless 4x6 prints.
While the Epson brochure states the
unit will output a 4x6 print in less than
one minute, we found that to be exaggerated (Epson is not alone in stating print
speeds optimistically).
Using the settings for best quality output, we found it took 40 minutes to print
10 4x6 prints using roll paper about
four minutes per print. One minor issue
we had with tbe roB paper was that once
cut, the 4x6 prints were excessively curled.
Reverse-curling t h e p r inted s trip
overnight before cutting it apart into separate prints reduced the curling consider-

once the print is made. The strip provides

a gripping area for the printer as it makes
borderless prints.
If you want to perform image correction on your pictures before printing
them, you can connect the unit to a computer (Windows only) via the induded
USB port and send print jobs to it as you
would with a normal printer.

We printed approximately 60 4x6 prints
before the printer gave an error message
indicating that the cartridges needed
changing, so the cost of the ink plus paper
print with one qualification. We hadn' t
loaded the printer driver onto a PC, so we
couldn't read the ink level display menu.
We changed both cartridges, but it may
have been the casethat the black cartridge
wasn't depleted. This would have
improved the cost per print rating.
The 785EXP can also be used as a standard inkjet printer, and comes with USB
and parallel ports, plus Windows and Mac
drivers. The printer accepts up to legalsize paper, and works with the full range
of Epson photo papers including precut
4x6 and 4x20 in. panorama sheets.

In m any ways, the j ust r eleased
PhotoSmart 1315 is a close match for the
Epson 785, improving on the Epson's feature set in a few ways or implementing the
same functions difFerently. While Epson
offers an optional 1.6-inch colour LCD
for previewing images, the PhotoSmart
has a built-in 2.5-inch colour screen. The
Epson has a single PC Card slot, and
accepts the most common kinds of digital
camera memory cards with the appropriate adapters. The HP unit has three memory card slots, one to accommodate Cp I
and II cards (including IBM's microdrive), one for SM cards, and the third for
Sony MemorySticks.
While the HP unit does not offer a

paper roll bolder, it does incorporate a

special 4x6 photo paper bin into the letter-size paper tray to acomodate this

common size of photo print paper.

One notable ddference is with the ink
system: while the Epson uses six colours
(cyan, light cyan, magenta, light magenta,
yellow, and black), the HP unit stays with
the more standard four-colour array

(cyan, magenta, yellow, and black).

Theoretically, tbe two additional inks
allow a six-colour printer to reproduce
more subtle variations in hue.
On its own, the HP's output (using HP-

brand paper) wasvery good, but in sideby-side comparisons, the Epson's colours
are richer and more accurate. Colours
were pleasing, although a slight corduroy
pattern could be detected on some of our
print samples, an artefact of inkjet spray
pattern. Overall, the images were very

pleasing, with the prints reminding us of

postcards. The printer has a setting called
ACE (automatic colour enhancement)
that noticeably improves the saturation of
the images without much impact on
prmtmg times.
The pri
ntersoftware makes good use of
the built-in screen, allowing for some
minor image correction, photo rotation,
and cropping. However, we found the
onboard image processor was quite slow,
and we had to wait a few moments for the
image to appear onscreen once we selected it.
L ike t h e E pson 7 85EXP, t h e
photoSmart 1315 is also a full inkjet
printer. It comes with a parallel and a VSB
port, along with Windows and Macintosh
drivers. C2

pane, in particular, can switch to show

Pavorites, Albums, Photo Discs, and
Search views. Favorites are just shortcuts
to often-used locations on your system.
Albums are essentiafiy folders containing
shortcuts to groups of images, making
them easy to browse.
Photo Discs are more powerful, allowing you to store ifie listings and thumbnails to catalogue your Bbrary of images
on CD or other removable media. Anyone
who deals with clipart collections or
who has owned a diytal aunera for more
than a few months wifi rejoice at this
capability. One disappointment, however:
the Photo Discs catalogue doesn't refiect
any folder structure on your CDs; instead,
afi of the images are in one long list.
The Search view works much like
Windows Search, but adds the ability to
search on image properties and embedded metadata. And, naturally, it can
searh for oflline images within Photo
Discs catalogues.
When it comes to processing your
images, ACDSee 4.0 now inludes so
many features that it takes a new kind of
toolbar to access them. For example, lik
on the Edit button and a secondary bar
appears below the main toolbar, showing
the available editing functions: Convert
(to another format), Resize, Rotate,
brightness and contrast), and
Editor
(wh ic h la u nches A C D 's
FotoCanvas or other bitmap editor).
Virtuafiy afi these functions now work
in batch mode. Thus when you press
Resize, the operation is carried out on afi
selected files. If you select the Enlarge Or
Reduce To option, you can quickly
changeabunch of images to onestandard
size agreatfeature forWeb page design.
If you need further automation, you
can step up to ACD's new RoboEnhancer
plugin (which works with both ACDSee
3.0 and 4.0). It lets you create complex

of ACDSee 4.0, you'B get two useful plugin modules: FotoCanvas 1.1, a remarkably
capable bitmap editor; and FotoAngelo
1.1, a unique dialogue-box operated
slideshow creator. Both plugins have been
updated substantially. FotoAngelo, for
example, can now add text slides, and
FotoCanvas has a new Clone brush.
The only downside with ACDSee 4.0 is
that unfortunately, as so often happens,
the major rewrite has created a number of
minor bugs, glitches, and inconsistencies.
Most notably, launching ACDSee 4.0 in
a folder containing 1,000 images or more
(not an entirely unlikely scenario, for
heavy users) can result in a delay of a
minute or more before the program
appears. Also, ACDSee can occasionally
crash when previewing video lips. (You
can easily disable this feature, but it's a
shame it's not more usable.)
There's also an accumulation of otherwise trivial i nterface idiosyncrasies:
mouse focus doesn't always default to
where you'd expect it; audio won't stay
muted when previewing video clips;
dragy'ng files out of the ACDSee list causes the list to jiggle; and so on. None of
these are serious, but together they somewhat erode the overall experience.
Still, ACD Systems is very much aware
of these issues, and in mid-November
reported that a substantial decimal-point
update was imminent. Considering the
company's solid track record with previous releases of ACDSee (for example, the
quick release of version 3.1), there's little
reason to doubt that these rough edges
will be smoothed out fairly expeditiously.
Despite the slight teething troubles,
ACDSee 4.0 in its current form is stifi very
much a worthwhile upgrade. Microsoft
has put more image management into
recent versions of Windows, but ACDSee
4.0 goes far beyond those basics, tackling
just about every imaginable graphics

closure (

scripts using Iy processing eKects, including sharpening, watermarking, text overlays, colour depth transformations or

despeckle filters... each with extensive

options.
That extra power comes with extra
complexity, so Robofinhancer is targeted
mainly at graphics professionals. ACDSee
4.0 should be more than enough for the
simpler, on-the-fiy processing that average users are likely to neetL
ACDSee 4.0 abounds with other useful
features, too: Generate File Listing creates
a text file containing a detailed directory
listing of the current folder; Contact
Sheet creates thumbnail index of selected
images; and Print Contact Sheet prints
out a sbnfiar index page.
The Acquire button now does more

chore. If you work (or play) with images

for as much as a few minutes a day, this is
a package you shouldn't be without. Cl

Logitech's Wheel Mouse Optical is very

basic, with two buttons and a scroll wheel
down the middle (which can also be used
as a third button when you install the
MouseWare software included in the
box). It works with either Mac or PC, and
can be plugged into a USB or PS/2 port.
This mouse has an 800 dpi sensor, for
twice the performance of previous optical
mice. It also comes in a stylish cherry red.
So, what more could you want?

Well, sometimes people want to cut the

cords, too. The Cordless Optical Mouse

mouse itself requires two AA batteries

(two are included).
A special note, before you buy: optical
mice often don't work very well on reflective surfaces like glass or mirrors, and
sometimes won't work on extremely dark

and patternless surfaces, like a solid black

major difference is that this mouse comes

What's so special about the Special
Edition cordless mouse? Well, it comes
with the standard roller ball inside, and
with Logitech's traditional two-button
and scroll-wheel design. It also comes
with a cordless receiver that hooks to your
PC or Mac via aPS/2 or USB port. What
really makes the Special Edition special,
however, is the interchangeable faceplates while the standard version is a
dark blue-grey, the Special Edition also
comes with yegow and bright red plates.

Professional on my home system a

Symantec had added to its suite of system
utiTities and tools.
The new flexibility became evident
while installing the suite. Instead of

Database
modules
weakest links
By torquesSurveyer
oth Corel and Microsoft have venerable desktop databases in their
office productivity suites: Corel's
Paradox is from the mid-1980s and
Microsoft's Access I'rom the early 1990s.
Both are dearly showing their age. The
problem is that these programs are barely
appropriate for standalone use and certainly are not suitable for workgroup.
mobile, Web, and distributed applications.
In short, these are vestigial databases,
hanging on like the appendix and tonsils,
because the body central has not figured
how to get rid of them. Here is a short list
of the major problems with Paradox and
Access:

1.They departlargely from SQL 92 and

SQL 99 standards for query, update,
and control syntax.
2. Some of these departures are either
omissions or partial implementations
of security, privacy, and referential
integrity features critical to modern
mobile and distributed database tasks.
3. The databases lack the replication,
transaction. and messaging interfaces
that are vital for distributed applications.
4. The data store engines and file formats
are getting further and further behind
the state of the art available even in

compact form for desktops from the

major vendors.
5. The database programs do not offer a
smooth upgrade path. Paradox is the
worst, but perhaps because Accesshas
lingered with an outmoded let database engine when an alternative has
been available, Access is more blem-

ished.
6. Both programs force users to learn
separate GVI d evelopment tools,
scripting languages, and stored proce-

dures elements useful only in one

operating system (Windows), while ay

the equivalents are available in VBA.
In this list. perhaps points 2 and 3 are
the most damning from a database
integrity view, but as a developer I onsider the last point to be the straw that
broke the camel's back. In these days of
HTML, SQL, XML, VBA, Java, and
C/C++, the last thing I want to do is master a diS'erent, and in this case incomplete, toolseh I do not need to learn a new
and obsolete programming language like
Object PAL or Access macro language. I
do not need to learn the idiosyncrasies of
a database format that runs effectively on
one platform Windows, and really only
desktop Windows.
Some might argue that desktop databases relieve hard-pressed database and
system administrators of having to create
and maintain isolated desktop systems for
end users. My counter argument is that a
system with MySQL or desktop SQL
Server is much easier to develop and can
be much upgraded to server or distributed use more readily ii' required.
Some others might argue that desktop
databases at least help teach basic database concepts to end users which is the
only reason I can see for giving the databases the ratings noted below.

Where goesthe cilia marked

As we have seen throughout this threepart review, oflice suites are hardly brimming with innovation and new, inventive
features. Of ourse, there are feints in that
direction with speech and handwriting
modules, plus new functions in messaging, but these are hardly complete and
well-integrated features.

XML support is slow in appearing,

ing from two major quarters. First, open

source and/or discounted suites will
attraca attention. Sun's Star Office has features very close to par w it h Corel
Wordperfect Oflice and Microsoft Ofiice
XP and it has the advantage of running
on several OSes, being open source, and

free. (However. open soure is not a ticket to success, as the very slow-to-develop
Netsape/Mozilla venture has proven.)
The second competing trend may come
from other development clusters. For
example, document creation has heretofore been dominated by the word pro-

cessing and desktop publishing paradigms. Yet Web, mobile, and TV/rich
media output are becoming as important
as or even more important than purely text-oriented presentation of information. Vendors such as Macromedia,

Staroffice has a fairly complete set of
standard office features and modules. The
word processing and presentation tools
are nearly on a par with their competitive
counterparts. StarOIBce's database and
HTML editor are steps ahead, while the
Draw and Formulas programs have no
exact counterpart in either the Corel or
Microsoft suites. However, there are a few
areas in which StarOffice 6.0 is clearly

Microsoft's Pubhsher and Smart Tags or

Corel's Oxford Dictionary and Quick

The most serious deficiency in
Staroffice 6.0 is the previously noted lack
of collaborative/groupware features and a
thinness in Web features. StarOffice is
dependent on either ASP- or Perl-based
servers, whereas its competitors can produce HTML/JavaScript-based 6les that
can run locally or on a server.

has dramatically improved. It is now one

of the fastest office suites, with quick
startup and processing times. Third.
Staroffice has become promiscuous,
reading and writing all the latest Office
XP and WordPerfect Office formats,
along with half a dozen other popular
formats.
By using DTD-based XML for its own
file storage formats, Staroffice data and
files are immediatdy accessible to a wide
range of XML-savvy programs. It could
become astandard for offi
ce data inter-

change.
Staroffice 6.0 also bas an improved
Basic-like (similar to CorelScript and
VBA) macro language. In firct, the only
area in which the program has not followed suit is in active online support. And
Sun

prom ising
more
collaborative/groupware features as it gets
its XML-based file formats properly
tuned.
In short, for free on Windows, Solaria

and Linux, Staroffice isgoing to bea formidable competitor. It was remarkably

stable yet fast during our testing. In fact
StarCHBce beta displaced Office XP off
our test madune because of Olfice XP's
constant activation hassles (we change
our hardware often, which requires "reacthmtion").
Staroffice is also several steps ahead of
Microsoft Works and other "home office"
suites on features, speed, and price. The
Starof6ce 6.0 Beta is usable now in
Windows (Linux and Solaris versions
were not tested). It can be downloaded
from Sun M icrosystems' Web site

(wwwsnn.om).
The 6nal version will be available in the
first quarter of 2002. (Note: Staroffice 6.0
beta now supports Simpli6ed Chinese,
Traditional Chinese, Japanese, and
Korean.) 0

to see whether the virus definitions are

2000, or XP, this feature is available only
when you are logged on as an administraton
Using the single-dick scan, I was able to
correct several problems that I was not
aware of but that were slowing down my
s ystem. I n pr evious versions of
SystemWorks, I would get a noti6cation
that no 6x was automatically found and I
spent a good deal of time hunting for one
or trying to go into the registry to find
and fix the problem myself.
Many of the Norton Utilities features
have also been streamlined and updated
with the disk fragmentation and optimization functions working smoothly. A
few people have told me that previous

versions of SystemWorks often defaulted

to Windows' built-in disk fragmentation
solution if they were running Windows
NT or 2000. They rightly complained that
thisdefeated thepurpose ofhaving a separate (and arguably more thorough) utility. This seems to have been 6xed in
SystemWorks 2002.
The Norton CleanSweep program also
worked well, agowing me to easily remove
several old programs and 6les, leaving
behind few stray DLLs and file extensions. SystemWorks helped me 6nd and
remove any remaining strays quickly. And
managmg cache 6les and coohes remams
as easy as it was in the previous versions.
Some of the most interesting tweaking
to System Works is i n t h e N orton
AntiVrrus toolset. The AntiVirus interface

such asAuto-Protect, email scanning, and
script blocking are on, and when the last

SystemWorks CD.
If installation of software, for example,
creates problems with your system,
GoBack allows you to revert to the preinstall version of your hard drive. This version of GoBack is a Personal Edition,
which lacks some of the Qexibility, customization, and password protection
options of the Deluxe Edition.
GoBack requires about 10 percent of
your hard drive space. I can't really say
how well GoBack works, as I have not
needed it (knock wood). But, even with
the creation of a Rescue Disk (something
you s h ould do aft e r in stalling
SystemWorks), I'm thankful I have the
option of reverting back to a pervious
version of my hard drive if something
goes terribly wrong.
I once had my system crash badly due
to a badly installed program. While the
Rescue Disk allowed me to recover my
system enough to back up important files
and programs, I still needed to reformat
and reinstall everything from scratch. If
GoBack can prevent that, it is well worth

iTunes 2.0 picks up where Sound3am leftoff

SV JushnSiemens
hile Apple has released iTunes 2.0
to coincide with the launch of its
new iPod music player, it still has a
lotto offernon-iPod owners.Some people
may remember that when iTunes debuted,
it was, in fact, just an Apple-branded versionof Soundaam MP the leading commerrial MP3 player on the Mac platform at
the time. Within a few months of iTunes'
release, Soun(L)am went belly up, leaving
many people unhappy because iTunes was
not a's full featured.
Among the SoundJam features missing
from iTunes were: a fully editable equalizer

have a hands-on review for you in an
upcoming issue.

viith built-in presets, multiple visual plugins, and support for audio plugins to
enhancethe sound output.ITunes 2.0 adds
all these capabilities and remains free,
which is good news for everyone, except
thosewho paid $60 forSoundDam.
ITunes 2.0 also features faster built-in
CD burningthan version 1.0 and a slightly
tweaked inter
face. Now the only thing
missing is skins, and it's doubtful Apple
will ever allow those, as the company tends
to be rather cool toward any sort of interface modification.
If you want a skinable p(aye( for DS 9 or
X, look at Audion (wwwpaniccom/aud(Dry)its developer even offers a discount for formerSoundJam owners. For the rest of us
iTunes2.0 is a worthy upgrade,even ifyou
aren't planing to get an iPod. ITunes 2.0 is
available for both OS 9 and X. A small note:
the first version of the OS Xinstaller resulted in data loss for some users, but Apple
pulled it quickly and the current release
has no such problems.

ture.But, in 10.1.1 ifthe dock is on the

to 7.5cm (2 to 3 in.).It's annoying and
the only way to fix itis to set the dock to
auto hide, or place the dock back on the
bottom.
We' ve heard there are other minor bugs
such as these, but in general it makes
things more stable, so we'd recommend
instaUing it anyway.

IBN (www.ibm.corn/sohware/speech/maC/ostt/)
has announced that it is bringing its voicerecognition software Viayoice to Mac 05 X.
The new version of Viayoice 3.0 is in fact
for 05 X only and wiU feature many
improvements over the 05 9 version.

Viayoic
e forX can be used to controlthe
finder, open applications, run AppleScripts,
and dictate text into any word processor.
Previous Viayoice softwam required the use
of either a special Viayoice note pad or
Nicmsoft Word. Viayoice for X is available
for U5$170 directly from IBN. It comes
bundledwith a USB headset mic. Users of
pmvious versions will be able to upgrade to
thenew software without buying the whole

packagewith the mic, but pricing was not

available at press time.
IBN wiU be leaving previous versions of
Viayoice on the shelf at retailers so 05 9
ownerscan purchase and run them without
having to upgrade to 10.1.

Building an arcade cabinet

Part 1: Finding the parts
pie who had actually taken the next step:

building arcade boxes for playing MAME

hen I was a teenager in the '80s, I,
likemany of my contemporaries,
misspent my youth literally a
quarter at a time. I would get hooked on the
latest video games, and can still remember
the quarter-sucking fascination that came

with playing such c)ernie arcade games as

Space I n vaders, A steroids, B erserk,
Centipede, Defender, Star Castle, Tempest,
Gravitar, and many, many more.
That, of course, was years ago, and I
haven'tbeen in an arcade foryears.Recently,
however, I came across tbe Multiple Arcade
Machine Emulator (MAME), which allows
you to download software versions of the
ROM Bles derived from the original arcade
games. While it let me play my favourite
games on my PC without needing a bag full
of quarters, it just wasn't the same as playing
the games on an arcade machine. Playing
games like Missile Command or Stargate on
a keyboard or with a dinky little gamepad
was often sn exercise in frustration. I wanted
to get closer to the actual arcade gaming
experience.
On the Web, I was able to find some peo-

games. The boxes use authentic game contons, and joysticks. My interest was peaked,
and while I know my way around a soldering
iron, I was daunted by the idea of the woodworking required to build a cabinet.
I mentioned this to a friend who had a
similarly misspent youth, but who also had
extensive woodworking knowledge and
tools. Thus, a plan was hatched.

initially, we planned to split the work me

doing the research and my friend looking
into what was required woodworking-wise.
One thing we knew we would need was real
arcade controls.
Though I remembered nuuung across a
site on spare parts for pinball machines (I
own an electromechanical pinball game
from the late-'70s called Wild Card), we
thought there was probably a local source for
arcade controls.
This is where we truly lucked out. we hit
the jackpot with the Toronto Coin Machine

details LuSiD's quest to build his own
MAME arcadebox. This is easily one of
the better sites out there on this subject, primarily because of the detail it
offers. Plans for building your own cabinet are available for downloading, along
with plenty of information about designing such things as the control panel,
installing a working coin door, and
selecting and configuring a computer for
the unit.

real arcade controls, check out Happ

existing arcade unit, or want to build your
own, Happ has what you are looking for,
including buttons, coin mechanisms, trackballs, keyboard interface controls, and

4. Toronto pinimli Exchange If you happen to live in the Toronto and are interested in either buying an arcade unit or
new orused controls,considermaking a
visit to the Oakville business. Its handson expertise with all kinds of arcade
controls and systems was an invaluable
source of information when I was buiiding my arcade unit. And like the name
implies, it also carries pinball machines
thatyou can buy orrentin an exchange
program.

S. Michael Wsilem's Super Xyborg 3 If

you'
re interested in how one of my
arcadeunits tumed out,check out this
page on Michael Willem's site. There are
extensive pictures of the unit in various
stages of assembly, often annotated to
descri
be exactly what you're seeing. The
site is short on fine detail, but it does
give a pictorial ovenriew of some of the
etectmnics behind building your own
MANE arcade unit.

wnwmvw.net/arcade.php

CmdrTaco is one of the principals behind

the well-known Slashdot news referral
service. I n a ddition t o f o unding
Slashdot, he has built his own MANE
arcade unit, which is detailed on these
pages.Not as detailed as LuSiD's page
(to whom CmdrTaco acknowledges his
debt),but it has many pictures of the
building process. As well, for those who
are building a Linux-based arcade system, you can download game control
software here.

0. IJameascbive If you are interested in

the history ofarcade games, thissite is
wortha visit.It has sectionsdevoted to
pinball and video gamesthe latter featuring information on games such as
Dragon'sLair, classic Atari, and Sega
Vectorgames. The site also has a FAO
page and article archive.

g. The Curtis MAME Unemuialed ROMs

Databme Even though there are MAME
ROMs formore than 3,000 arcade games.
there are still plenty to be emulated. The
folks behind this site are tracking the
effort
s of those copying the ROMs from
specifi
c games. These pages provide a
fascinating glimpse into the technical
aspectsof converting old game code
into PC-playable versions.
www.unemutated.com/

Tadtrcade Cabiaet Etuunides page Ibis

page is comprised entirely of links to
otherpages and sites of other enthusiastswho are documenting the construction of their own arcade games. The
links include people who have completed units
, as well as those tackling particular issues, like game controls. The
searchengine builtinto the page makes
this a wealth of information for would-

be builders.

English no longer rules the Web

WASHINGTON, D.C. For the first time in the history
of the World Wide Web, native English speakers are no
longer the dominant demographic group on the Internet,
thanks to a surge of more than 100 million new Internet
users in 2001, a report released in mid-November found.
The third annual Stateof the Internet Report, produced
jointly by the U.S. Internet Council and International
Technology 8i Trade Assodates Inc., (ITTA, online at
www.uucorg) found the new users mainly &om the South
Pacific region helped shrink the share of native English
speakers online to roughly 45 percent of the estimated
total of 500 million Web users.
Within the United States, 59 percent of households
have home Internet access, a 15 percent increase over last
The report also details significant pmgress in eirorts to
eradicate the so-called "digital divide" that persists along
racial, gender and economic lines. Women now make up
52 percent of U.S. Internet users, and 51 percent of
African-American households are online, a 35 percent
growth over 2000 and only slightly below the 60 percent
penetration rate among white households.
Outside the United States, however, the digital divide is
still quite wide, primarily between countries in the northern and southern hemispheres, the report notes.
The study highlight's an increasing desire among countries to regulate the Internet at the local and regional
level, as nations grapple with the prospect of enfordng
their sovereign laws across an international medium.
"There is no question that the governments of the

has been in business since the mid-'80s,
when the proprietors bought the stock
from people who been in the business
since the '30s.
When we asked about parts and controllers for arcade games, we were taken
through a hallway filled with '80s and '90s
vintage pinball games, into an area
crammed to the gills with old arcade
games. Nirvana!
We were ofiered a deal on a set of old
cabinets minus their game electronics.

world have tried to legislate and regulate the Net," said
USIC president Bill Myers. "The result, where they' ve
been successfiul, has been pockets around the world
where there is not as much innovation, and access to the
Net is limited."
Afghanistan, for example, has completely banned all
use of the Internet within its borders, Myers said. As part
pril 2001. Chinese authorities
have shut down more than 2,000 Internet cafes, and an
additional 6,000 have been forced to suspend operations.
The Chinese government also is carefully building a
stand-alone Chinese Web that has been purged of content
and opiniondeemed inappmpriateor subversive,effectively creating a "cyber wall" between the Internet in
China and the rest of the world, the report notes.
Heightened security concerns in the wake of the Sept.
ll t errorist attacks also have increased government
involvement in the day-to-day affairs of the Internet,
Myers said.
"If we look at what has happened over last two months,
we see a drive in the U.S. and elsewhere to bring the
Internet under increasing regulation for security purposes," he said. "There has been lot of motivation for govern-

Each cabinet came with a working 19inch computer display (rather than the
television displays more typical of most
arcade units), a trackball, and a couple of
arcade buttons. This setup not only
solved our problem of getting a monitor
and new trackball, but we were getting a
ready-made cabinet in the bargain.
The cabinets were sold in sets of three,
so we found a mutual friend to sign onto
our arcade project and bought the lot.

Once we took delivery of all the arcade
units, the work really started. Before putting our systems together, however, we

appear to be receding as security concerns move forward."
Governments around the world are making their presence online felt in positive ways, most notably in the form
of e-government programs. Canada, Singapore, the
United States, Finland, and the United Kingdom continue to lead in pmviding government services online.

ITTA president Mark Rhoads said this year's report
makes clear that economic and policy divisions in the
ofiline world translate almost seamlessly into Internet
space.
"We are realizing that as the Net becomes more part of
culture, the same fault lines that are out there in the economy and culture at large are going to manifest themselves
on the Internet," he said.

had to answer a few fundamental questions:

Which operating system should we use
on the computer driving the arcade
games?
How fast does this computer have to
be?
What is the best controller interface?
How many arcade buttons do we need!
Which controls do we use?
In the end, we each answered these
questions difierently, which led to important design decisions.
There were a lot of other less fundamental questions we knew we'd have to

tadde along the way, induding how to

paint the cabinets, whether or not we
could get the coin mechanisms to work,
and how to create new plastic marquee
signs. This series will look at all of these
issues in turn. 0

y of the previous generation of
Rash-based storage card.
What may seem strange to those who
have been following developments in the
world of Compactftash is the lack of any
new Rash-based cards using the slightly
larger Type II I'orm factor. According to

Micael Wong, senior public relations manager at SanDisk, the reason is quite simple:
"Therejust aren't enough devices with a
Type 11 slot available."
The director of public relations, Bob
Goligoski, concurred, adding that the highest-capaci
ty Type I CF cards now available
provide more storage than most people
know whatto do with anyhow, so there is
no real value in developing products for the
TypeIIslotin addition to Type I.Thus,the
lastType II CF card from SanDisk was the
320 MBversion,and ithasnow been effectively discontinued. The 1 GB CF card wil
be available in early 2002. and is expected
to hit the street ata price ofUS$800.

Struggling CPU chip maker, Transmeta Corp.

some big f r iends. i ncluding several

attemptto keep alive its message of lowpower, low-heat, and high-performance

Thereare a few things standing in the
way ofthis technology right now. Rrst up,

But Frank Priscaro, Transmeta's director

requim a network infrastructure to be in

any indication, the coverage would likely
be fairly patchy and concentrated in urban

In mid-October, Fujitsu and Sony introduced Crusoe-based subnotebooks for the

"As the Japanese economy comes back,

The toughest word game oa the Web

NB Takethisquizandfind outwhat you
really know about the English language.
Entymologic's interactive quiz poses multipie-choice questions about the origin of
words, and the correct answers can be
very tricky. The false answers in fact are
remarkably plausible, and some of the
true answers are hard to believe, An
example of a quiz question: "What's a
nephrectomy?" Choices: surgical correctionto the kneecap;surgicalaiteration of

the nasal cavity; neurological (nervous

system) therapy; or surgical removal of a
kidney? ..... Give up? Maybe you'll get
this question when you take the test...
For quicker results, grab your dictionary
and look it up.

AOL Time Warner chairman Steve Case
dropped in on Ando's keynote via satellite
to hail expansion of AOL and Sony'sexisting partnership. The companies plan to
develop a new open broadband home networking environment in which "phones,
computers, and other devices will be able
to talk to each other," CasesaicL
In his address, Ando declared said 2001
marks the beginning of the broadband
age, adding that despite the many
advances in the Internet in recent years,
some peopleare frustrated.
Consumers will delight in the upcoming shift from a narrowband Web that is
centered on the PC and a few mobile
phones to a broadband environment that
indudes many devices, Ando said. He
caged this new environment a "ubiquitous value network," or UVN.
"In this UVN, PCs and consumer
devices will be connected to each other,"
said Ando. "Sony is committed to making
aa of its products network connected."
"We can put an IP address on every
device," he continuaL "That means you
can listen to music and watch movies the
way you want. Frustration with the PCcentric world will be resolvecL"
Ando demonstrated the company's
vision of the future, which induded a long
list of gadgets: apalm-size Handycam that

records, receives and transmits digital

video images; a two-way wrist communicator worthy of Dick Tracy with a small
camera and a screen, sending video email
to and from several devices, including
PDAs, sunglasses, and an in-dash car
Internet receiver.
He said the key is broadband wireless
technology that allows the transfer of rich
media content from device to device without cables.
"There are many possibilities for the
future," Ando said. "I hope you believe, as
I do, that future shock is simply future
excitement."

Inthe next step,companies are becoming "virtual global corporations," thanks

to wave after wave of e-applications, he
said.

In Cisco (wwwcisco.corn) chief executive
John Chambers' vision of the future, the
Internet wiB allow companies to become
"virtual network organizations," which in
turn will drive increased profits, cash flow
and productivity.
In his keynote Nov. 12, Chambers said
the Internet has accomplished in fow
yearsaa ofthe advancements thathe had
predicted, during a speech at the show in
1997, would take 10 years.
Chambers recaaed that when he forecasted integrated voice, video, and data
networks for years ago he was told he was
on the lunatic &inge. Those networks are
now acceptedascommonplace.

Piuiac Station

"But don't underestimate the power of

brand, and don't underestimate how fast
the market moves," Chambers cautioned.
"The 'Net impact' means I can run Cisco

connections. It means more people are

companies connecting their offices, they
are connecung to supphers.
Jim Grubb, Cisco's manager of demonstrations, joined Chambers on stage.
Grubb showed a few of the ways the Net
impact will afiect business. First, Grubb
sat in a "cofiee shop" and used an 802.11b
wireless card in a laptop to obtain broadband access to the Internet. Once online,
he was able to use virtual private network
(VPN) software to establish an encrypted
connection to the Cisco corporate system
as if he were sitting in his office.
Grubb then showed how users could
tap their wireless Internet access to do elearning virtually anywhere, including
desktop computers at work, laptop omputers on the go or even automobiles.
While in his car, he used an in-dash
computer to find the nearest cofiee shop
and order a beverage to go. He then purchased the latest song from the band
Destiny's Child. When he noticed the
service light was ifiuminated in the car's
display, Grubb used the Internet connection to find a nearby service station and
make an appointment.
"The entire car is networked. When I
dick 'accept' for this service, the station's
computer automatically orders the needed part," said Grubb.

PCs, and stressed the importance of reliability as well as the desire of consumers to

Treo device. Hawkins said Handspring
wiU make the Treo muh, much smaller,

believing that's what consumers want

from a handheld. "I think they' re becoming mainstream computing devices."
He also said the opening of wireless
networks to programmable devices will
raise huge security issues on networks
that have not been subjected to such

"opportunities for creating havoc." That' s

a challenge and an opportunity for companies like Handspring.
To access the Internet via wireless in the
future will be "mostly free," Hawkins said.

Handspring ( www.hEndspliogcom) cofounder Jeff Hawkins said the Internet,

via wireless networks, wiU some day have
a billion or so communicators attached to
it, and he predicted that the future of personal computing will be the future of
mobile computing.
During his keynote, Hawkins introduced his vision of future personal computing by describing a history of the
product, entertaining the audience with
images and descriptions of evolutionary
dead ends in the 19805 and I990s.

A duster of cellular handset vendors and

carriers are working together to develop
an open architecture for wireless handsets
and smartphones.
In h i s k e ynote a ddress, N okis
(waw.noha.coin) president iorma Ollila said
open standards are what made the
Internet great. This latest initiative, he
said, plans to do the same for the cellular
industry.

dropped considerably, and the decline
will continue as network operators amortize their infrastructure costs, he said.
"The incremental cost of handling one
more wireless call will be essentially zero,"
Hawkins said, which will make affordable
wireless devices inexpensive to use in the
future. He predicted it will cost very little
for people to carry amund these small
devices and access the internet all day.

Ollila said his company is offering to
license its mobile phone software to
third-party vendors. Samsung is the arst
third-party vendor to license Nokia's
mobile browser technology. In addition
to the mobile browser, the Korean electronics giant has also licensed the source
code for Nokia's smart massaging technology. The initiative also seeks to avoid
the cr(Stion of multiple standards in the
cellular industry, Ollila addEL
To kick-start the initiative. Nokia is
offering its competitors a range of termi-

nal dient components, induding multimedia and standard massaging dients,

multimedia (WAP/XHTML) b rowser

technology, and a SyncML-based synchronization engine.

Court rules DeCSSposting

on Web is protected speech
SAN JOSE, Calif. A California appeals
court has issued a potentially far-reaching
decision in a case involving the online
publi
cation of DVD-copying software.
On Nov.1, the Court of Appeal in the
Sixth Appellate District o f California
reversed a lower court's decision to impose
a temporaryinjunction against defendant
AndrewDunner's posting ofthesource code
forOeCSS on hisWeb site.
The courtsaid the tempomry injunction
was a "prior restraint violation of Dunner's
FirstAmendment right to freedom of
speech.
DeCSS is a computer program designed
to defeat an encryption-based copy protectionsystem known astheContentScramble

System (Css), which is empioyed to

encrypt and protect the copyri
ghted
motionpictures contained on DVDs.
In January2000, a Santa Clara County
Superior Court judge imposed a preliminary
injunction that ordered Dunner and numerous other defendants to cease Internet
publi
cation ofthe source code forDeCSS.
Bunner appealed the preliminary injunction, and the three-judge Appellate Court
panel ruled in his favour.
The DVD Copy ControlAssociation (OVD
CCA, at www.dvdcca.org), which developed
CSS, discovered DeCSSposted on numerous
Web sites in October 1999. The association
then filed suit in California seeking injunctions preventing further posting of DeCSS,
and the Motion Picture Association of
America (MPAA) filed a similar suit in New
York.
The DVD CCA argued the posting of
DeCSSby Dunner and other defendants was
a misappropriation of a trade secret, and it
was appropriate to enjoin dissemination of
it.
The organization said such actions are
violations not covered by t h e First
Amendment because the First Amendment

is not a defense in the theft of a trade

secret.The DVD CCA said the defendants
violated the Uniform Trade Secrets Act
(UTSA).
D unner was r epresented b y th e
Eiectronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) and
the First Amendment Project, a non-profit
public interest law firm and advocacy
organization based in Oakland, Calif.
Banner'
s attorneys asserted that he

foundthe information on the Internet and

decided to republish it using a domain
name he owned but did not regularly use.
In the Nov. 1 decision, the court said the
DVD CCA'sstatutory right to protect its
economically valuable trade secret "is not
an interestthatis'more fundamental'than

the First Amendment ri

ght to freedom of
speech or even on equal footing with the
national security interests or other vital
interests that have previously been found insufffcient to justify a prior
restraint."

our respect for the Legislature and its

enactmentofthe UTSA cannot displace our
dutyto safeguard the rights guaranteed by
the Fir
st Amendment," the court wrote.
"Accordingly, we are compelled to reverse
the preliminary injunction."
In addition, the courtfound that DeCSS
is "pure speech" for the purposes of First
Amendment protection.

Opinions of the attorneys forthe two

sides were sharply divided.
Robin Gross, an attorney with the EFF,
hailed the court's decision as a "landmark
ruling for First Amendment protection of
individuals in an online society."
"The court did a thorough analysis of
whatprotections are afforded to different
types of intellectual property," said Gross.
"The court held trade secrets only bind
people who have a legal obligation to keep
something a trade secret. Outside that,
anyone who publishes DeCSS cannot be
enjoined from discussing or republishing
information obtained i n t h e p ublic
domain."

Jeffrey Kessler, theattorney forthe DVD

CCA, blasted the court's ruling as aNdisasterforthe U.S.economy thathas nothing

to do with DVDs orcontent protection."
"The court held that trade secret laws are
unconsti
tutionalto the extentthey provide
for prevention of dissemination of the
trade secret," Kessler said."If a company
has a manufacturi
ng trade secret that is
stolen by terrorists and published on the
Internet,the company cannot stop the
publication."
"It is not good for the protection of
DVDs, and it is nationally significant across
industries," Kessler continued.
"It is wrong, it won't stand, and we are
going to appeal it t o t h e California
Supreme Court."

U.S. telcos asked to expand wiretap access

WASHINGTON, D.C. Alarmed by the
steady emergence of technologies that do
not lend themselves to traditional eavesdropping methods, the FBI is pressuring
teiecom providers in the U.S. to allow
more direct access to their communications networks.

Wireless and telephone industry insiders say the changeswould require carriers
to implement functionality that they do
not currently oker to their own customers. Many also are worried that the
requested changes could carry a hefty
price tag at a time when the entire industry is struggling through a serious cash
crunch.
The FBI outlined its requests in a con6dential meeting with more than 100
telecom industry executives in 'Ittscon,
Ariz.. in early November.
The bureau later made more sped6c
demands in a n a s-yet unreleased
Fundamental Needs document, which
calls for a new round of changes to powe rs granted th e F B I u n der t h e
Communications Assistance for Law
Enforcement Act (CALEA), a 1994 statute
that required U.S. wire-line and wireless
telephone companies to build l aw
enforcement surveillance capabilities into
their newer digital communications systems.
While the law clearly applied to
telecommunications carriers, it specifically exempted providers of information
services, such a s I nternet service
providers (ISPs) and instant massaging
services.
Today, the FBI can intercept communications over such services using
Carnivore. a device that can seek and 6nd
specific communications that travel
across an ISP's network
The bulk of the FBI's new requests,

however, apply to technologies that rely

on so-called "packet-switched" networks,
where communications data is broken up
into digital bits before being sent and
reassembled at the receiving end. The
Internet is built on packet-switching technologies, and it is widely expected that all
telecommunications eventually will be
based on it.

Packetswitching makesitdifficult to monitor asinglecommunicationseamlessly asit

travelsacrossdifferentcommunicationsplatforms, routes
andservices,andthe FBI
wantscarriersto implement
changesthatwould makesuch
servicesmore reliable and
easier to track.
But packet switching makes it dii6cult
to monitor a single communication
seamlessl
y as it travels across different
communications platforms, routes and
services, and the FBI wants carriers to
implement changes that would make
such services more reliable and easier to
track
That particular demand has set oir a
small storm of controversy among many
wireless carriers, who have long quibbled
with the FBI over the scope of CALEA as
it relates to wireless massaging and newer
dlgltal seMces.
Michael Altschul, vice-president and
general counsel fo r t h e C e llular
Industry
Telecommunications
Association (CIIA), said unlike previous
CALEA requests, the latest demandsshow
the FBI essentially expects caniers to

develop new services for the government

that they do not even offer to their own
customers.
"As an end user, when I send an email,
it's very duacult for me to tell whether it
even got to its destination, or whether or
when [the] redpient actually read it," said
Altschul, who attended the Tuscon meeting. "They' re asking camera to provide
capabilities to the FBI that go way beyond
what they can currently pmvide to their
customers.
The FBI also wants carriers to add
functionality that would seamlessly handle common wireless industry pitfalls,
such as dropped calls and calls that get
handed oif to another provider's network
when thecallermoves out ofrange.
"Basically, what they want is to be able
to sit down at a mirror and watch the person [under surveillance] use the system,"
said Al Gidari, a partner with the law 6rm
of Perkins Coie in Seattle who represents
several wireless companies. "Tbe FBI
wants to make sure their target customer
is given priority of service.
"There's absolutely no business reason
why you'd create something with that
quality of service level that eats up so
much bandwidth, particularly in an
industry where there's an inherent scarcity of bandwidth already," Gidari said.
"Much of that scarcity is exacerbated by
the government's cap on spectrum [ownership], most of which has been sucked
up by the government already."
Gidari added that carriers have sunk a
ton of money into building out their networks, and that redesigning thosesystems
would be a very expensive proposition.
But Lee Tien, a lawyer with the
Electronic Frontier Foundation a digital
rights advocacy group based in San
Francisco said the FBI probably is

focusing more on priming carriers to

consider its needs as they design the systems they' ll deploy in the years to come.
"There are so many different standards
used in the industry right now, and
nobody really knows what's going to
become the market standard," Tien said "I
think the FBI has learned something
about their previous battles with this
industry and knows how long it can take
to get some of this stufF moving."

"Basically,what they [theFBI]

wantisto beabletositdown
at a mirrorandwatchthe person [undersurveillance] use
the system."
While several industry sources said
they fe)t the FBI was asking for too many
concessions, sources with experience on
both sides of the issue say the industry as
a whole is likely to go along with the FBI's
latest CALEA request.
"The bureau would love to get people
to design in these capabilities where it' s
not legally required, and in fact that' s
what's going to happen," said Stewart
Baker, an attorney with the Washininon,
D.C. Iaw 6rm of Steptoe grJohnson, and a
former deputy director for the National
Security Agency.
"There are a lot of companies whoparticularly after Sept. 11 wiB say,'If it' s
not so hard to do, let's just do it so that if
the FBI needs to get access to this information, they can," Baker said. "Now if it
turns out to be very expensive, they might
think twice, but there's generally been a
great diminution in the spirit that says, 'If
they can't make me do it, then I won' t.'"

runs on two AA batteries, making it

noticeably heavier than it's corded

cousins (if you only have a small area to
m ove your mouseand have a habit of
picking up it to compensate for that, the
extra weight takes some getting used to).
The small, dark grey mouse-shaped
receiver plugs into the VSB port.
The silver and black case has a nice,
ergonomic shape that fits well in the
hand... if it's a right hand. that is. The
Wireless IntelliMouse Explorer has the
traditional two buttons and a scroll
wheel, and adds another two navigation
buttons on the left side, near where yow
thumb sitsthese buttons make forward
and back navigation through the Web a
breeze. Earlier incarnations of Microsoft's
optical mice placed these buffons on
either side, this new layout is much nicer.
All 6ve controls four buttons and the
scroll wheel can be programmed to perform specific tasks.
This mouse is Mac (OS 8.6 or higher)
and Windows (95, 98, Me, NT 4.0, 2000,
or XP ) compatible and requires a VSB or
PS/2 port.

Microsoft's Olfice Keyboard has bells and

whistles and more. At the top are application-specific (Word, Excel, Web, Mail,
etc.) launch buttons, mute and volume
controls, aswell as Sleep and Iog Off buttons that are now common on premium
keyboards. These buttons can all be programmed to suit the applications you use.
Sweeping below and around the lefi of
the main keyboard area is a grey band
that acts as a wrist guard and has another
set of controls. These include a scroll
wheel, Cut, Copy, Paste, Forward, and
Back buttons, and a n A pplication
toggle. The scroll wheel in combination
with a mouse makesWeb navigation very
smooth and quick. The Application toggleis also quite useful.
The keyboard is quite deep about 26
cm (10.25 in.) so may not fit in some
keyboard trays, or on deskswhere space is
tight. ( See W i reless l ntelliMouse

requirements.) i3

option (otherwise, the transition wiB take
effect whenever you click the mouse or
press Enter or N on your keyboard to
move to the next slide). However, you can
enable both checkboxes and set the timing so the slide will move forward automaticagy after a preset period of time if
you haven't already moved it forward
yourself.
Before you exit this dialogue, select
either to apply the transition to the currently selected slide (click Apply) or to ag
the slides in the show by choosing the
Apply to AB option (recommended).
When you apply a transition effect only to
the currently selected slide, the effect
occurs when that slide loads (not as it
exits).

Animating within a slide

setting

In addition to
animations between
slides, you can animate within a slide, to
create a bullet list with the list items
appearing one at a time in quick succession,forexample.
To do this, create or open a slide that
contains a list of items formatted using

either the bugets or numbers. With this

slide showing in the edit window, choose
Slide Show, Preset Animation, then Fly
From Top. Test the slide either by running
your show (choose Slide Show, then View
Show) or better still, choose Slide Show,
then Animation Preview, which allows
you to view animation in a small window.
Notice that each bullet or numbered
point "flies in" from the top of the slide
and drops into place. This is one of the
quiet animations. If you want to hear a
sound with your animation, turn on your
speakersand choose Flying as the preset
animation. Notice that a sound will play
as the animation appears. Other Preset
Animation effects have more sound still,
and some are very noisy indeed try the
Typewriter option to see just how noisy
they can get!
If you like the animation but not the

sound, you can turn it off if you alter the

settings. To try this, set a slide to use the

Typewriter animation and choose Slide

Show, then Custom Animation. This dialogue allows you to create your own custom animation effects and alter the builtin ones to suit your needs. Choose the
Effects tab and, in the Entry animation
and sound area, notice that the sound is
set to Typewriter. Click to open this dropdown list and choose No Sound, then
click Preview to see the animation play
without the sound effects. Choose OK to
finish.

Security and exception handling

Sy Jnct)nesSnrueyer
n a wired and increasingly menaceridden networking world, Java has a
well-deserved reputation for high reliability and security. This reputation is
based on three solid foundations.
First, the Java Virtual Machine (JVM)
takes over all memory agocation and
handling for all Java programs and
applets. This means rogue programs that
deliberately go out and attempt to access
or (worse) change other users' memory
space arevery hard to construct.
ln addition, the JVM performs a variety

catch(lrieNatfoundE
xceptian fnfe)().

Try/cefdt blocks

//Erstdegnethe saurcefor rite driver

uy(

strings, variables, objects, and arrays,

returning exception or error conditions.
These error conditions can be handled by
the user with the rry/catch block that was
popularized by Java and is now being
imported into a number of languages,
including Microsoft's Visual Basic.Net
and new Crr (referred to as C Sharp).
Second, the restricted sandlot model
that Java has adopted for all applets
means Javaprograms that run in a browser normally cannot access any local disk
storage other than what the user has
afiowed/enabled through the use of cookies which is disk space under strict control of the browser and local desktop
operating system.
Developers are allowed to build applets
that can read and write other user disk
space; but there is a carefid runtime security manager required to setup, then
enable this type of access.
The third foundation to java security is

//Nmt hsdtheJDK/ODK cannertor

Chssfa/Name(sun.idhcarikJdxOribd)rk/Y);

the rry/catch statements with user con-

//

trofied exception handling. In dfect, users

are allowed to de6ne the specific exceptions and error conditions that can occur.
Then if the JVM signals that those exceptions or error conditions haveoccurred in
code bounded by a rry block, the user can
catch the exception and code in their specific response.
The following listing shows asample of
this rry/carchprogramming used in the
context of processing some simple SQL
d atabase statements. However, it i s
important to note that exception handling is by no means restricted to data-

//~
d Rd dd l
mph(OsssnatFaundE
xrerianmfe)(
S ystemorf/rincn(~JDK Orner nat fau/xp
Systemerit(-52);

In fact, asyou might expect, Java prede6nes a bmad range of exceptions and
errors. Errorsare fatal exceptions such as
LinkageError or VirtualMachineError,
which the programmer is not expected to
catch or be able to react to.

catch all exceptions declared in dasses

they create or import (even if it is empty
catchcode).
Second, users must delineate speci6cally what Java statementsthe catch block(s)
apply to with the rry block Most of the
main methods code in the above example
is contained in a rry block that is trapping
for two different exceptions:
CfassNarFaandgxceprian
' SQLExceprian

Canneuian

lid I

d Ida & d

)
)

lf the Cfassrpaundgxceptian occurs

the program exits with a spedal error
code, -32. If a SQLE/rceptian occurs, the
program tries to provide additional information about the exception by providing
SQLState and Error Message info.
However, any Java statements can be
contained in a catchblock. Some Java
programs have very elaborate code to
pickupand recoverorexitgracefully from
their exception or error conditions.
We have been calling exception handling rry/sarah blocks; but really we
should sayrry/catch/finall blocks. Thisis
because for every rry there must be at
least one catch exception handler (but, as
noted before, there may be several catch
blocks) and there may be one /inaffy
block A /)aujfy block is executed as soon
asthe rry block is exited no matter how.
The purpose of the finally block is to
allow for dean-up codeafier a block has
executed.
Sometimes when there are multiple

possibleexits fkom amethod. a rry//f nally

But exceptions can becaught, and users

can spedfy appropriate additional messages or exception logs. Indeed, aB classes

with predefined exceptions must be
explidtly caught. Thus users will see in
Java code examples of empty catch blocks
like the following:

of bounds-checking operations on

applied justabout anywhere in java

Thesecarchblocks are required by the

Javacompiler and if they are not found,
the lava compiler issues error messages
for all the exceptions that are missing
catch blocks. By inserting an empty catch
block, users indicate to Java that they
want the JVM to handle the exception in
a standard way that varies with the nature
of the exception.

shall see in the next tutorial). But for all
you chartists and numerical beavers,
being able to handle Java and your own
defined numeric exceptions is a godsend.

the method returns.

)
But this could just as well have been a
sample of matrix multiplication or
numerical integration in which the user
de6nes the Exception, rhravvabfs conditions (say a singular matrix or matrix
dimensional mismatch), then invokes
throw new Myfixreprian as tbe situation
requires. The attraction is threefold:
the user can trap for exceptions in a
standard way across all numerical routines;
the user can take some minimal mustbe-done action;
' and the end user is allowed to add their
spedfic action for this exception.
To know that, at minimum, certain
numerical exceptions will be handled
uniformly is the dream of many numerical analysts. This does not apply just to
numerical analysis, however, but to all
sorts of database, co-ordination, and collaborative pmgramming routines.
See the chapters on Exceptions in Ivor
Horton's Beginning Java, or Kniemeyer
and Knudsen's Learmngjava (pages 90109) for examples of how Exceptions can
make errorhandling more standardized
yet thorough; thus improving the reliability and usability of your Java code.0
