Here’s a way to get attention to your product: suggest that it can prevent consumers’ PCs from becoming a “zombie.” Believe it or not, a new report from McAfee suggests there has been a 50% increase in the number of detected “zombie computers” since 2008. You’re terrified already, aren’t you?According to a BBC report, a zombie PC is simply one that has been hijacked by a cyber-criminal, or in other words, commandeered without the owner realizing it. Needless to say, such a situation is indeed scary, with crooks

It’s not often that you see a manufacturer release a self-proclaimed “incremental update” to an existing product (firmware refreshes notwithstanding), so Lenovo’s new IdeaPad S10-2 is certainly noteworthy. The original IdeaPad S10 first surfaced last autumn, and rather than delivering a true successor, Lenovo has opted to dole out a Revision B (if you will) that is more evolutionary than revolutionary. Indeed, the entire machine is simply tweaked rather than overhauled, but there’s no need to reinvent the wheel

We’ve seen Acer demonstrate a few of its notebooks with WiMAX modules built in, so it’s no real surprise to hear that this very company has decided to join the Open Patent Alliance (OPA), a group dedicated to offering intellectual property rights (IPR) solutions that support the development and widespread adoption of WiMAX. In fact, Acer has become the very first global PC OEM board member, and we’re told that it will help the proliferation of WiMAX technology, devices and applications around the world.If you’ll

ECS A790GXM-AD3 Review @ OCC and other reviews from around the web can be found by visiting our forums!

This, friends, is the definition of “caught between a rock and a hard place.” You see, AT&T is desperate to hang on to its iPhone exclusivity, particularly now that Verizon Wireless is reportedly looking to coerce Apple into producing a version for its CDMA network. On one hand, keeping the iPhone close to the chest enables AT&T to net loads of new customers; on the other, it forces the carrier to continually upgrade its networks to handle the influx of data usage. A tough spot to be in, clearly.According

NASA’s getting Twitter-ific. Not only is astronaut Mike Massimino tweeting updates in preparation for the Hubble mission scheduled to launch Monday, in NASA’s next shuttle mission to the International Space Station in June, shuttle commander Mark Polansky is inviting followers to submit video questions via YouTube that he will answer from orbit, via Twitter. To submit a question, Polansky’s Twitter followers (about 2,300 right now, compared to Massimino’s over 200K, whoops!) should post a video question no longer
