On the 64-bit processor roadmap, The Inquirer thinks that Intel is in danger. AMD soon will introduce its "Hammer" series of x86-64 chips. And they will offer far more versatility than Intel's Itanium family -- and will surely be cheaper.So watch out if you need a commodity 64-bit processor. Rumours say that even Sun Microsystems is interested. But I insist: it's a *rumour*:!

Sabine et les haricots sauteursHere is another article in french, about a young arts teacher in Paris. She's 25 and can be credited for a short movie "La Révolte des haricots rouges".
A rough translation would be "The Revolt of kidney beans."
You can watch the video here, but be warned: depending on the version you choose, you'll have to download between 9 and 32 megabytes...

Famous quotes containing the word giant:
“Of a truth, Knowledge is power, but it is a power reined by scruple, having a conscience of what must be and what may be; whereas Ignorance is a blind giant who, let him but wax unbound, would make it a sport to seize the pillars that hold up the long- wrought fabric of human good, and turn all the places of joy as dark as a buried Babylon.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
