ATI beats Nvidia on Video accelleration, tho you might never notice. Fire up the rumor mill: Google in talks to buy Napster? Been sharing software? UK ISPs ordered to turn over user info. We asked if you want video game coverage... and boy, did you answer. Microsoft releases IE 7.0 Beta 2: read PCMag's review. The short version? Lots of interface mods, some new security features, and it brings IE up to par with Firefox. It's really for developers and folks that love testing beta software, but you can download the beta.. Thanks to everyone that emailed us with information on the Maxthon browser. (Underneat, it's IE 6!) What is 'Fair Use' anyway? Danny O'Brien, Activism Co-ordinator, drops by from the EFF to discuss. Want some help influencing your local representative on tech policy? Go to the EFF Action Center. What were those camcorders we talked about? Looking to spend under $500? Hitachi's DZMV780A records to a DVD-R or DVD-RAM Just about any Sony or Canon is workable in that price range. Thinking sub $1000? We showed off Canon's Elura 90 and Panasonic's PV-GS250 We also mentioned Canon's Optura 400. (It picked up PCMag's Editor's Choice award.) Sony's changing over their camcorder models. You might score a deal on a, Sony DCR-HC90. Heads up: chances are that company offering a video camera camera for hundreds less than everybody else.... ...wants you to pay top dollar for an 'accessories package' or isn't going to ship you the camera at that price.. Ask us how we know. StarForce Technologies threatens BoingBoing's Cory Doctorow. The company seems rather upset that he called it "anti-copying malware." We had time for a few viewer questions, too. Keep 'em coming!
