Yep, those bloody pirates have struck again! But the British police were right to save the day as they conducted a dawn raid in Cardiff, Welsh and arrested three people suspected of involvement in Internet-based music and film piracy rings. Two men (one of which is the ring leader) and a woman were said to be part of the biggest suppliers of pirated music and films in Britain, earning about 3,000 pounds (6,173 $) a month. Now I understand how these cyber thieves find the piracy business a lucrative one. Too bad it�s considered illegal and unethical. But piracy is not going to end unless people stop buying from them. Just some food for thought, folks.

The converter gives different results between the motherboards with chipset ich7 and ich8 when I install OSX pc version.

At first, I use the converter on Gigabyte 945P to connect the ide drives to the sata ports on the motherboard. It works perfect in OSX PC system, no matter harddisks or DVD writers. You can take the unit combining the harddisk and the converter equal to a REAL sata drive.

Because the ich8 does not support IDE devices, I consider it would be a good way to build sata drives. When I connect IDE hardisk and DVD drive to the sata ports of the motherboard Gigabyte 965P-DS3, DVD drive can not boot and hardisk can not be shown in Disk Utility. I am sure the CMOS are configured right (disable sata native mode), and the real sata harddisks are shown.

One thing the Internet has been known today is to distribute pornography. While government agencies have cracked down on these sites, there are still a bunch of them today. Worst, they may be sites that can deceive you. Hence, it would be best to be wary of a site that has a lot of pop ups and porno pics at first load.

People should really be more alert since it is not the pornographic materials which you should be wary of. Malware and viruses are sure to be there and without even making any action, they can make their way into your computer and create problems. So keep it safe and just close the browser or even go back to the previous page immediately.

Bad news for that certain someone who leaked the info at Sun Microsystems. Intel is furious when news of a particular PDF document that outlines the year-old partnership between the twp companies. It does not contain highly- sensitive information however there are pricing details and other information on a new high-end Xeon for multiprocessor server. Sources state that the leak came from the Austrian offices of Sun and has wormed its way outside the company’s network. However, Intel still refuses to comment on said leak.
