Apple's Magic Mouse has a secret rendezvous with Windows PCs

Justin Yu  |  Nov 24, 2009

Windows users still drooling over Apple's multitouch Magic Mouse might finally have an excuse to step into an Apple store, thanks to "a little hackery" by UneasySilence.

The hack exploits a vulnerability in Apple's latest Bluetooth Update, uncovering Magic Mouse drivers for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows from XP to 7. We've yet to put it to the test ourselves, but users online are reporting success with full use of the Magic Mouse's vertical touch-scrolling. Leave a comment and let us know if it works for you.

New Popoplug comes in pink and more USB ports

The new Pogoplug: More USB ports for extra hard drives, very pink.

Just recently we reviewed Cloud Engines' Pogoplug, a very affordable US$99 solution that effortlessly turns any USB hard drive or memory stick into an online-connected makeshift server. We really enjoyed playing with the original, although its blocky white look wasn't exactly eyecatching. We take that back--and perhaps even long for the minimalism--with Cloud Engines' new Pogoplug, available in December.

If you've wished you could connect your external hard drive to your computer without having to use the USB cable, now you can.

Imation announced recently the availability of the first wireless USB external hard drive, the Pro WX. The hard drive works just like any other USB hard drive, with one exception: It doesn't require a USB cable.

Wireless USB has been under development for about five years, and some of the first products were demoed at CES 2009. This technology allows you to connect USB 2.0 devices to a computer wirelessly from up to 10m away with a throughput speed of up to 480Mbps.

Cray XT5 Jaguar beats IBM as world's fastest supercomputer

IBM is no longer king.

The lead position on ORNL’s Top 500 Supercomputer list is now Cray’s XT5 "Jaguar" supercomputer, besting IBM’s Roadrunner.

The XT5 Jaguar, located at Oak Ridge National Lab in Tennessee, recently received a refresh that included upgrading its quad-core CPUs to hex-core Opteron processors. That means a 2.3 petaflop per second theoretical performance peak ("nearly a quarter of a million cores"), and 1.75 petaflops measured by the Linpack benchmark.

AMD Phenom II chip overclocked to 7GHz

Darius Chang  |  Nov 16, 2009


Some people push physical boundaries through body modification or inane stunts and get accolades. Others break through scientific frontiers and get awarded with the Nobel prize. Overclockers, however, do it simply because it's nerdy cool.

Using the AMD Dragon platform and a 3.2GHz Phenom II X4 955 processor, overclockers at QuakeCon (an enthusiast PC convention) managed to bring the CPU clockspeed to just over 7GHz. Instead of liquid Nitrogen that cools to -196 degrees Celsius, this feat was achieved by using liquid Helium which brought the system temperature down to -267 degrees Celsius.
