More IBM revolutions
CNN notes that a new technology from IBM promises for even faster processors in the future.

IMG has a lot of stuff about games, among them a preview of Alice, an upcoming 3rd person action game based on the Quake 3 engine (hopefully working better than the current version of the original).
