nosismav be that there are somanvopportunities in the CAD field and so many areas of
engineering and architectura) design/rendering that can use specialized CAD-based
boosts that it is hard to decide where to start.
Literally, AutoCAD has so much territory to
coverand defend. ItsAutoSketch, Actrix,and
AutoCAD LTE are designed to ward off the
low-end tools perpetually trying to chip away
at the AutoCAD &anchise.
Currently, DesignCAD Pro (httpt/wwwwa
grahxcom, $450) is one of the best competitors. But AutoCAD has quietly amassed
expertise in G I S w it h t h e A utoDesk
MapGuide, Survey and View programs
among others; it supports a large and widening set of specialized engineering extensions
(civil, electrical, mechanical, etc); plus it
owns a large interest in Discret, which markets such 3D and animation powerhouses as

The database world was turned upside down
this year with the perennial Transaction
Pmcessiug Performance Council benchmark
champion Oracle being ousted Erst by
Microsoft with SQL Server doing 262KtpmC
(read 262 thousand TPC transactions per
minute), then IBM DB2 achieving a whopping 441KtpmC. Even Sybase managed to
leap ahead of Oracle with a very credible
157KtpmC benchmark followed by Oracle at
144KtpmC.
But the more interesting trend in database
softwaremay be whathas been happening in
the Linux and fieeware worlcL Linux uow
boasts uot just the latest copies of IBM,
Oracle, and Sybase databases (plus a host of
freeware databases,sce below) but also lava
development tools aud Web/applicatiou
servers from ag three vendors. These trends,
along with improvements in multi-processing and 64-bit support, wig make Linux an
even more attractive database aud Web server
tool.
No smaB help to the Liuux cause are the

The remit is that OS vendors are scrambliug to Net-ize their offerings to take advantage of aB that bandwidth. For example, one

So now lava applets or .NET applications

styles and effects to m ake complex
image-editing operations easier and less
mistake prone.
All of the above compromise on supplying as full a set of tools as Photoshop.
Nonetheless, many users will find the
easy-to-use software very anractive for
their home and Web image-editing uses,
and may never need the level of control
Photoshop offers.
However, that's not to say Photoshop is
unapproachable by anyone who is not a
professional graphic artist. Adobe has
made its latest version of this software.
Photoshop 6 (hnp//wwwadubecom, $800),
much easier to use, while increasing its
capabilities yet again.
For ease of use, layers and styles are
not only easier to organize but also to
apply to images. In addition, the number
of layersis increased from 99 to 8,000,
and there is no limit to the number of
custom styles that can be saved on disk.
Copying CorelDraw's context-sensitive
property bar makes many editing operation so much simpler.
New features include a number of vector drawing capabilities that can be layered over bitmap graphics and saved as
shape thumbnails for easy reuse. Thus,

(http //wwwmakoocumputei corn, $3,300, animation, rendering, and sound).
Combustion'
(hnp//wwwz discreet rom,
$3,500, video editing, animation, and
composition).
' Lightwave 6 . 0 ( h tip.//www
Hewtekcum,
$3,600, 3D modeling, animation, and
rendering).
Maya 3.0 (hup.//wwwowsgi.com, $12,000,
advanced rendering, animation, and
modeling).
Soft)mage XSI (http.//wwwsu(timogecum,
$12,000, 3D modeling, animation, and
graphics).
These are the programs used to produce special effects in ntovies (Maya 3.0
was used in Perfect Storm and Excalibur),
p roduct d esigns ( 3 D S t udio M a x ,
Lightwave, and Softlmage), and video
editing (Combustion ).
However, in reality, both 2D and 3D
graphic design tools have been used tor
movies (Awiz, Toy Story, The Clue, and
scores of others), TV shows (A/ly McBev(,
Roswe/), X-Fi/es, and dozens more), plus
commercials, and product layout and
design.
The strength of the high-end 3D programs is that they have solved the tough
animation and media integration problems that 2D animation tools like Adobe
LiveMotion (http//www.adobecpm, $380),
Corel RAVE ( http.//www
core(.com, $640,
including CorelDraw and PhotoPaint),
Flash
5
(hitp.//wwwmacro
mediacom, $600. includes Freehand), and
their drawing/illustration counterparts
are just addressing.
Admittedly, drawing and 2D animation
tools are one fifth the price or are constrained by Web-output formats, but
these high-end 3D tools have rendering,
lighting, animation. texture mapping and
graphic composition ski)ls that would be
ultra competitive in the 2D world.
NB
A new daily "soap opera called
Gimmesoap has been (aunched on the Wob.
Eachdaily episode is500 words long and features new pictures of the main characters.

the sheer number of third-party add-ons
available &om statistics, math programming, advanced financial calcu)ations, risk
analysis, mapping and other analytical calculation vendors. But with the increased
importance of Excel's link to SQL Server's
powerful data mining and OLAP services,
expect to see either Micmsoft or a third
party provide a better Excel modeling language to greatly simplif)i the link between
Excel and OLE/DB for OLAP servims.
Sun Microsystems is c hallenging
Micmsoft and other suite vendors by making its StarO%ca suite (hllpy/wwnsm.cern)
available for fiee. Star 0%ce has components nearly as capable as Word,
Presentations, and ExceL StarOffice programs can read Olfice file formats directly
or export StarOIBce files into 0%ce 97 or
2000 formats.
The pmblem with Star0%ce is that a few
advanced Microsoft 0%ce features get

Critical mass
How will Canadian cities blossom in the Internet age>
Sy SInfan Duhm>vahf
ver the past 9,000 years, since the lirst
pro>In?'pes of urban life began ai
len<ho m Palesune and Catal Huyuk
in Anatolia, n has alway~ been a mystery how
certain places acquire the magic to become
entres ot' political, religious, technological
and economic creativity.
Many ciu<s have,fora ume, had the magic.
They' ve attracted or created human talent,
new ideas, economic activity and a vibrant,
healthy wban culture out of proportion to
their simple size. How our own Canadian
cities can ride the waves of the New Economy
to a sustainahle, healthy existence in the global economy is the trillion-dollar question.
In her book, The Deu>h and I.i jr of Great
American Cities, Jane lacobs has this to say
about what a living <ity needs for diversity
and urban liveliness:
"A mixture of uses. if it is to be sufliciently
complex to sustain city safety, public contact
and crossuse.needs an enormous diversity of
ingredients."
But lacobs' words seem to have gone unnoticed in the high-tech industry. Here we see
SystemsCorp., Alcatel Networks Corp (formerly Newbridge Networks) and Mitcl Corp.
B.C.
George Hunter is the executive director of
the B.C. Technology Industries Association
(BCTIA k He sees examples of this congregation happ
<a>ng in the Yaletown and Castown
areas of Vancouver.
"If you hsten closely over lunch you can
herc afi of the business deals going, on," he
>a>d over th< telephone. "There's this intense
need for interaction with peers. The real drive
is on for a>eas that are 'funky.'"
Whar' i he appeal! "Other companies are
there," Hunier said.
Ls th>s m keeping with jacobs' detimtion of
diversity? Or does our tech-penchant segregate services and stitl city excitement'.
According to Beth Moore Milroy, director
of Ryerson Polytechmc University's School of
Urban and Regional Planning, su<h concentration might seem homogeneous, but m
truth d>versity rules.
"It's ~(most one of those timeless features,"
Moore Milroy said. Con~ider Caned;i's major
finaninal district, which lines Bay Street in
Toronto.
"You would see a vanety of services if you
looked closely at the financial district... You'd
see lawyers, you'd see restaurants, you'd sce
corner store activity. I don't think (the hightech sectorj is afi that different."
But computing companies arc dilTerent in
one respect:they're on the leading edge of
communication. What's the porn>of clustering when cofi
eagues and conversation are
only a mouse-dick away?

"Television has been blamed for many things,"
said Tercek."Television is not the problem, it is a
symptom of a mass soriety. We have a mass consumer soriety, with mass marketing, which led to
the rise of television as a massmedium. Television
gave the opportunity to create mass brands and
sbmula
ted massdemand.
"Now we are seeing a shift to mass customization,to a one-to-one economy," Tercekcontinued.
"It wik be a wrenching transition for the television
industry. Everyone wants things customized to him
or her, you see this as a growing trend on the
InterneL Television rrill have to become customized, because the audience will no longer be
passive, they will be an active participant,"
Tercek's address focused on four vector that
will drive the change m television frere its current
state to an interactive medium in the future: form,
value, audience and controL
8y form, Tercek refers to the transition fiom
analogue netwons to digital, two-way networks.
He quoted Alvin and Heidi Toffler's book Power
Shrft, which notedsix i mpor
tant words for the
future of entertainment ubiquity, interactivity,
connectivity, convertibility, mobility and globalizat
ion. Tercek says that the new wave oftelevision must address each of those six items.
"Convergence is a term that ismuch derided. It
also causes confusion. Television will oot converge
with PCs, convergence will come from microprocessors and telephones," he predicted. "The
value is in communication. The tenos television
and video will merge, and community and commerce will come from connectivity. Connechvity is
the future of video. ARmedia is heading towaels a
telephony sphem, that's how to reach the next bib
lion users, he added.
Tercek went on to predict that television prograrns will turn into digital software that woric an
any network.
The value will come from the change from a
fixed procfuct to acommo
dity,accordingtoTercek.
'Video will no longer be on a tape with shrink
wrap, Technology like Napster will lead to the
commoditization of content. On demand access
will prevaiL Video will be given away freewith
value-added elements wmpped amund it," he said.

ars,noteveryone can win on Wbo Wants to be
u Migionm're? Televisfon was a fmedom frere
choice, and mindlessness is liberating. The future
is freedom, and freedom means responsibility," he
add rk
Tercek left his audience with an advisory to the
members of the television indushy. "Transi'arm and
be transformed, and survive the evolutionary
process.

Foundation.
In addition, all of the major database
and Web server heavyweights including Bluestone, lnformix, IB M, Or acle,
Sybase, and others have ported their
main products to Linux.
Finally, the next version of Linux will
h ave improved clustering and m u l t i processor support built in. So Linux has
become the lightweight LVeb server of
choice.
On the desktop. Linux has received three
boosts.First, Corel Linux has set the standard for ease of installation and graphical
user interface (GUI) use.
By developing its own GUI-based file
manager and user admin programs, Corel
Linux (hup//wwwcorel,com. free, or $60 for
the D eluxe v ersion, w h ic h i n cludes
WordPerfect and other utilities) simplifies
operationsusers of Mac or Windows desktops have come to expect to be very fast
and easy.
In addition,by adopting KOE and developing the WINE Windows emulator, Corel
has given impetus to better windowing
capabilities in Linux, be it KDE, Gnome, or
other GUI.
The second boost is the retatrvety high
price Microsoft i s charging for it s f i rst
operating system that can claim to have
close to the same reliability and availability as Linux (Windows 2000).
The jury is still out, however, as no public benchmarks on reliability, security, or
performance have been done comparing the
two systems.
compelling.
Finally, L inux o n t h e d esktop h as
received a boost from China.
In January,IDG reported that China has
decreed Linux the desktop operating system of choice.
How effectively the government can
impose such a choice remains to be seen.
Stay tuned to see how this works out aver
the next few years.
But the f uture presence of a b i l lion
Linuxdesktops in China would make Linuxcompatible applications and standards very
compelling indeed.
In the meantime. Microsoft has been and
continuesto work overtime on Windows at
all levels.
W indows CEhas moved to several different h a rdware a rchitetures i n cluding
StrongArm and MIPs.
This renews the hardware independence
startedin Windows NT but then abandoned
(Windows 2000 runs only on Intel architec-
ture).
But the new .NET managed executables
have the inherent capability to be cross
platform, just l ike Java Virtual Machine
applications. So more than ever before,
Microsoft has real choices as t o which
h ardware architectures and markets i t
chooses to enter.
Jocques Surveyer
he following tools have emerged from the heiter skelter to become Web tools of choice
for a broad range of needs. The only problem in making a choice, however, is that each
of these programs take a very individualistic approach to Web development.

For big site development, a number of tools like Forte Developer 6, Oracle's JDeveloper,
and IBM'sWebSphere allow users to develop enterprise wide Web systems with round-theclock reliability, security, and huge scaiability demands, but these systems can cost upwards
of $250,000.

that the onboard buffer will save quite a few
incomingfaxes for later printout, if the paper
was out or jammed while t'axes were being
received). Even so, the MFC-9100c is a surprisingly full-featured model considering the
price point, and would make a preuy good
choice for demanding users who need colour
output more than blazing speed.

Multifunction, multi-talented
TCPLab puts all-in-one office peripherals to the test
ultifunction has been a buzzword
foraslong as we an remember, but
precious few devices have really
embodied the word's spirit: the resulting
products either forced two items together
arbitrarily, or produced an end product that
wasn't particularly useful, no matter which
way you looked at it.
One product category whose manufacturers embraced the concept and got it right,
however, is the multifunction printer. People
who work in small office or at home often
gud they have a jumble of devices that are
very similar in principle. A laser printer, a
photocopier, and a fax machine all use printing technology. A photocopier, a scanner, and
a fax machine all use imagjng technology. It' s
more e(Dc)ant to roll them into one unit to
save money and space.
gs o mulkgg
uneggon unit sg~ for youP
For the home or smaller once envimnments
inwhich there areonly a few people who need
access to the equipment, an all-in-one solution may be ideaL Instead of a number of
smaller devices taking up precious space in a
home oflice, you only have to gnd deskspace
for one item. Further, you only have to worry
about replacing one set of print cartridges,
instead of replacing them on the printer,the
copierand the Buc machine. Even bauer, you
can accessall of the different functions hum
the same PC. Why print something out on
your printer then take it over to the fax
machine, when you can use your PC as the
hub for aU of the different steps in the process?
In addition to savingspace, owning one
item that handles all your printing and imaging needs can also be cheaper, at least in
terms of the initial hardware investment.
A multifunction machine isn't suitable for
every situation, however. If you have a numberof peoplewho need access to one ormore

Though Samsung focuses mainly on laser
technology when it comes to consumer
printing, it has opted for iukjet technology in
this multifuuctiou unit. It's a good choice,
providing high-quality colour reproduction
iu addition to scanning aud copying. The one
omission in the hardware is the fax component, but the bundled software will use your
PC'sfaxmodem for that purpose.
The real story with the Samsung SCX-1000,
though, is that it provides s lot of functionality aud quality for s price point that's very reasonable. With one of the lowestprices iu this
roundup, it nonetheless iududcs a flatbed
scanning surface, ss well as a high-quality
print engine aud excellent OCR software. For
those ou a budget, this is certainly n great deal.

As with Hewfert-Packard's other entries into
the world of printing, the Laser)et 3)50 is a
very capable printer, providing excellent print
output from both the PC and the built-in
copier function. Likewise, with its scanning
tmhnofogy, the ability to copy and scan documents is also excellent. However, considering the price of the unit, we have a few reservations: Erst, it would have been nice toseea
flatbedscanner instead of a sheet-feed version, so copying would be more versatile.
Secondly, although you don't need colour
scanning for fax and you catt'I opy in colour,
Oki has long been a proponent of LEDbased printing technology, and continues
to use LED in the OkiOffice 04. Like Oki's
previous muitifunction solutions. the
Ok(Office 04 is very much in the tradition
of the fax machine. with extra functional-

easy to get toner all over the place... on
your hands and clothes, and into sensitive areas of the printer. This is more
inconvenient than anything on a simple
p rinter, bu t w h e n c o m bined w i t h a
built-m scanner, it becomes more problcniatic, because the spilled toner can
g et i nt o t h e scanning area and r u i n
copies and stain originals. The advantage, though, is that a $43 toner cartridge is much less expensive than a full
$200 cartridg<, making the setup more
economical. If' you can put up with tbc
design, the economics might make the
Oki printer mnre attractive overall.

O n t h e m o n o chrnme l aser s i d e o f
things, Xerox also nft'ers a high-quality
machine.
T he W o r kCentrc 3 9 0 ( n o t ic e t h e
Canadian-ized spelling?) bundles scanning, copying, and faxing into 4 single
printer.
Scan quality i s very good. as is the
printed output. Additionally, this is one
o f th e exceptions i n t h e laser mu l t i functinn category, in that it can actually scan to the PC in colour.
B ecause i t' s m n r c f a x - o r i ented, i t
makes u>e of a sheet-feed scanning
mechanism, which is one of the
machine's few downsides.
The only other notable downside we
came ~crossduring,testing was the USB
installation problem tlimt also occurred
with Xerox'1 ink/et model, above.
Hopefully this, ton, will be tixed up
m future versions.

Ttus is a cosaborative
server product that' s
easy to install and just
as easy to use. It's one
of several products in
the BorderWare line, each of which is interesting.
Border(Vare is a privately held Canadian
company, founded in 1998 and based in
Mississauga, Ont. Although it's quite new, its
key people have impressive credentials and
experience.
The president and chief executive officer is
John Alsop, who has worked in Internet
product development since the mid-'80s. In
1996, he co-founded iPass Inc., where he
worked on network architecture and system
software. IPass provides a system for global
Internet roaming and settlement services. If
your ISP is a member of the consortium, you
can use your account (for an additional
hourly fee) in virtually every country in the
world without incurring long distance
charges.

"If everyone in the office is listening to
the radio, the IT department is going to
crack down," Chang said.

of online stations," Chang said. "People

No one goes out and photocopies a newspaper in order not to pay the 50 cents it costs
to pick it up at a vendor. It is too cumbersome
and expensive to do so. The same thing
should be done for music or movies, he

favourite piece of music is a rather time consuming process. One can never be sure if a
certain song is even available online. And if it
is, one often has to deal with long download
times and corrupted music files.

complete control of the computer.
I decided to limit my tests io my internal
network. although making the server available on the internet isn't much harder. Ai the
end of the installation, I assigned an internal
IP address of 192.168.1.145. To configure
Document Gateway, and to populate it with

LAN, and typed that address in the Wcb
browser. Then, I logged in with the default
administrative account.
The firsi step was to change the Password.

important for apparel and other things. It
made us wonder if the executives were
hesitant to include any technology for
fearof angering customers who could not

The design of the lyra is alsoproblematic.
For a flash memory-based player, it really
should be more compact to be competitive.
Further, the exposed CF slot coupled with a
lack of a lockout on the eject lever means you
could easily eject your media even when you
orturning theplayeroff.
But there are some nice features to the
player as well. The sound from the unit is
very good (although we achieved best performance by using headphones from another
player). Also, by using CompactFlash media
instead of SmartMedia, it doubles the poten-
tial capacity of the player, provided you supply your own higher-capacity CF card. And
the player's ability t o h a ndle M P 3,
RealAudio, and Windows streaming media
right out of the box makes it one of the most
flexible players currently available. Bottoni
line though, is that to take advantage of these
pluses you have to be willing to put up with
the aforementioned headaches.

Your cable company will run a regtdar coaxial cable from the box on the side of your

Similarly, the telephone company will do
some work to their box on the side of your

to run a wire to a DSL modem. That is unless

Initially, I proposed this artide as a way to
find out which service to use. I assumed that
there would be one clear choice. There certainly are differences between the two services, but deciding between them isn't so easy. I
will tell you the decision I made in a moment,
but first the factors.
bours. This has speed and security ramiffcations.Some circuits have upwards of 3,000
users.
This design means you will get higher
speeds if there are fewer users in your neighbourhood. Shaw has stated that it intends to
add circuits so that there will be a maximum
of 1,000 users per circuit, or node. Cable

work, you might run the modem into a separate box called an Internet sharing device,
which then connects to a network hub. This
gives all the computers on the network high
speed Internet access. (See the LAN Line column in the September and October issues of
TCP for more on Internet sharing devices for
small networks.)

ttmo fast?
How fast is a tough question to answer. First,
like road traflk, a posted speed does not
mean you will travel that fast. There are traflic jams and sometimes your car is not the
most powerfu). Second, testing your highspeed service is quite difficult, partly because
at any given time there may be various bottlenecks and partly because nobody nlakes it
easy.Even gening the numbers straight can
be a real chore.
These difficulties aside, broadband is way
faster than dialup service! At the very minimum broadband is four, tive, or six times
faster than any dialup speed you could get.
More often it i s 10 or 2 0 t imes faster.
Sometimes even faster than that. The numbersare somewhat fuzzy in thatthey referto

For this review, my local cable operator,
Rogers,and local telephone company, Telus
(formerly BCTel), installed their broadband
servicesconcurrently to my testcomputer (a
450 MHz Pentium III-based system with 128
MB of RAM). For two months I was able to
use either service simply by unplugging one
cable, plugging in the other, and rebooting.
During this time I tested the new services by
keeping track of my experiences as a user,
and by visiting bandwidth testing sites (listed

A few years back when people started talking
abouta convergence between the PC and the
Internet, I was slow to be convinced. The conceptual shift this demanded was too much At
that time, running an application that was
Web based was unheard of, and impractical
with a dialup service. The idea that I would
scessthe world as easily as I would my hard
drive just seemed wrong.
Now, an epiphany the prognosticators
were right. It doesn't matter where data or
applications live. Broadband retrains you.
Suddenly, installing a plug-in or jetting out to
pick up the latest driver is like scratching your
back an unconscious act.Data lives everywhere and is but a moment away. And PC/TV
convergence?
Of course, streaming video should be on
every page. Background music or other forms
of push? Yes, why not? Broadband liberates;
dialup is dead. That's the feeling of broad-

PrivacyScan begins to look to see what is out
there. If PrivacySan finds anything, it produces a report for the person outlining what
personal in(ormation and profiles exist,
But the Internet does more than simply
aUow online companies to gather information about someone in a fashion similar to
the information that can be found in off-line
databases.
Lance CottrB, president of the San Diego,
gttrlnsn nnntrgntntts
These kinds of threats to personal privacy
and easyaccessto personal information have
given rise to a growing industry that helps
people mask their online surfing and identities.
Calif
.-based Anonymizer.om, says how
online sites gather information is similar to
pinning a aniera on someone's jacket to
tr~ckeverything they do and see.
"The character of the (information gathered j is very dtf(creat," Cottreg addm "If I go
into garnes and Noble and purchase a book,
one of the options I have is to pay with cash.
Then you know nothing about me. If I pay
with a credit sard, you know what book I
bought, but not the 50 other books I looked
at or how long I spent with each one. So in
order of magnitude, the amount of information gathered using the Imernet is much larger and more detailed."
Like the information is gathered by ofi-line
databases, the information collected online
can, in many cases, also can be accessed by
anyone who wants it.
And it's not just marketing and sales companies looking Ior in(ormation about potential customers. Cottreg says it is now quite
common for employers to go online looking
to see what employees may be doing or saying
about them. So if an employee posts an
online resume or vents their spleen about the
boss at ihatemyboss.corn (not a real site, by
the wayl, it could very weU come back to
haunt them.
information is similar to
pinnin
g a camera on someone'
sjacketto trackeverything they do and see.
Anonymizer.corn (hltp://wwwannnym
iiei corn)
was started in 1997 with the express purpose
of giving people tools that protect their privacy online. It works by using proxy servers
to act as an intermediary between a person
and the sitesthey visit. A person goes to the
Anonymizer.corn site, and from there, type in
the URL of a site they are interested in visiting. Each page they visit is rewrinen so that
any information that can be used to track and
identif
y ihem isremoved. These an include
l ava, la vaScript and
Web
bug s.
Anonymizer.corn also protects against cookies. the most common way Web sites and
Anonymizer
.corn offers what itcalls a "safe
cookie."
"We encapsulate the cookie the Web site
si
nn
sions."
Privada l nc . ( hnp//wwwprwadacnm/) also
started in I 997 to protect the privacy of
Internet users. For one of the founders, protecting private information was something
she came to know firsthand.
7
My own personal situation causes me to
be very interested in privacy," says Barbara
Begissimo,co-founder and vice-president of
marketing for Privada in San lose, Calif. "A
while hack my daughter was admitted to the
hospital with a heart condition. She went into
the hospital at 10 in the evening and by eight
the next morning I was getting calls from
organizations that had gotten my phone
number (iom my health insurance provider.
So that caused me to be concerned about
what was happening with my personal information that I thought I was giving in confidene to that particular company and to be
wary with how my information was used by
other companies."
Privada uses a two-part solution to protect
identities online. The first is the Privada
Network, which is installed at an ISP and is
usd to mask a person's !P address. The
Network also derrypts the Internet requests a
user sends to the ISP from their PC, which is
equipped
wit h
Priv adaControl.
PrivadaControl takes a request (or a Web site
that a person wants to visit and breaks it
down into pieces that are then encrypted. The
pieces are decrypted at the ISP and only by
the servers that need that particular piece of

What PrivaTX.om currently offers users
is an anonymous email service that takes proteting a person's privacy an extra step:
PrivasyILom does not ofiect any personal
information about the people using its email
service, thereby making it even more difficult
for anybody to track or steal personal information.
"We avoid the problems associated with
cogeting and handling personal information
by striving not to handle personal information in the first place," Renardson says, "We

Creative claims that you can "merge your
entire collection of MPSs and CDs in one
compactdevice" using the Nomad Jukebox,
xnd that's probably true for all but the most
avid music collectors. Even if you can't get
your entire collection onboard, you can certainly get x substantial amount of music into
a portable solution: xt )00 hours, you could
literally listen to music for more than four
days straight without hearing the same song
twice.
Because it holds so much music, the
biggest problem with the device is uploxding
and management. The first time you load the
fuU fr GH onto the device, ft'0 take you three
hours or more, unless you have duplicated
song titles (tbe same song might appear on
an album and a greatest hits compilation, for
example, which will cause the transfer to
pausexnd ask you to rename or skip the second track), or other small hitches that will
delay the process.
The other issue is that loading 0 GB of
material onto the player presents you with
more material than you may be able to comfortably deal with. To make it quite a bit easier, though, Creative's interface allows you to
sort by artist, album, and genre. It also lets
you search xnd scroll.
With so much data onboord, the Nomad
Jukebox's responsiveness is occasionally sluggish. Pressing "expand" to list the track titles
of a currently playing album may take the
better portion of a minute, but it doesn' t

n the Urst of what will be a continuing
series of articles on digital photography
and imaging, it seems Utting to devote
some space to Epson'8 new Stylus Photo
2000P (http//www epson.corn).
The introduction of this printer marks a
milestone in ink)et fine art printmaking.
With it, photographers can finally expect
image permanence of ink)et prints that is
comparable to traditional chemical-based
photo prints, without having to spend thousands of dollars on specialized printing solutions.
Granted, at an estimated street price of
51,349, this printer is not cheap, but considering what it offers, it will be a must-have
item for many digital photographers and
artists.

Photographic artists usually want to
elchgbst larger pnnts, and also want to exert a
higher level of control during printmaking
than they can if they merely drop the film
roll OS at the one-hour photognisher in the
malL
This is the initial attraction of photo-quality ink)et printers. But the separate issue of
print permanence has not been addressed
until recently. While the colour and resolution of ink)et printers have impsoved drsm aticagyover the past couple of years,fade
resistance is still measured in months or
years, and not in the decades that is the

Tiny perfect digital LED printer

ki Data has introduced an ultracompact monochrome printer that
is appropriate for almost any desktop, whether in the enterprise, small business, or home environment. Although it can
be shared on a network, it is best thought of
as a personal printer.

Justbecause you're on a network, itdoesn't mean you want to use a network printer.
If you print a lot of sensitive material (personnel reports, financial data, etc.), and
especially if your office isn't close to the
sharedprinter,you might require a personal printer on your desk. Although Oki Data
pitches the OkiPage 8z as a business printer,
it can be used in the home or in the dorm
just as weU. It is a cost-effective solution for
everyone who doesn't need colour and doesn't print more than 2,500 pages per month.
tant than results. The OkiPage sz is surprisingly fast and quiet. It produces printed
pages with quality comparable to a true 600
dpi laser. It achieves "600 dpi class" with Oki
Smoothing Technology. It has 2 M B of
onboard RAM, which is more than enough
for most business printing jobs.
I printed a wide variety of word processing files, Web pages, and topographical hiking maps. The results were always crisp and
indistinguishable to me from printouts
from laser printers costing a few hundred
dofiars more.
Printing a one-page word processing file
took 47 seconds when the printer was in
sleep mode,and 23 seconds under normal
cirumstances. An eight-page word processing document took 85 seconds. A fairly elaborate home page took 41 seconds to print
on two pages.
The top-loading sheet feeder takes 100
pages of 20-lb. paper. In autofeed mode it
can handle paper weights from 16 to 28 lb.
With manual feed, it can take up to 32 lb.

The image drum lasts 10,000 pages at five
percent density (five percent of the page is
covered by ink, which is typical for a page of
text> and costs $130. The toner cartridge
lasts 1,500 pages at the same density and
costs $28.74. Both of these lead to a very low
cost per page. Excluding the price of paper,
and assuming you use up one image drum
and seven toner cartridges, it costs about
$331 in onsumables to print 10,000 pages.
That'sabout $0.033 per page, assuming you
are mostly printing text. Pages with graphiConiinaed on page 114

There are three significant differences
between the r e cently r e viewed Scaniet
3400Cse and Scanjet 4300Cse, which only
work in Windows 95/98. The Scanlet 5370
also comes with drivers for Windows 2000
Pro, NT4, and Mac OS 8.5 and above,
The second distinction is Ihe top-lit transparency adapter that comes with the 537OC.
Negatives,slides.and transparencies can be
scanned using the adapter. This is noteworthy
because scanners were not initially designed
to scannegatives and transparencies.

Learning to write shell scripts is a great
way to explore the richness of the Linux
toolkit. It's also an enjoyable way to learn
programming concepts. It's satisfying to be
able to create your own custom utility programs with just a few lines of code.

To set up the invoice template so that key

For example, a teacher could create a form
to record information for a student for a subject and store a summary as a record in a
database for the entire class. Salespeople an
have a spreadsheet for each sale and record
summary information as a record in a database containing information on ag sales.
Anyone who records data about anything for
the current month can keep key information

similar details for the full year. The uses for

lfyou're using Office 97,you can easdy create
d atabases in f ormats other than t h e
Microsoft Excel Workbook format I' ve used
in this example. To do this you must have
Data AccessObjects for Visual Basic installed.
You can instafi them from your original
Oftice 97 C(7-ROM. Start the Setup program
and select Data Access fiom the Options list,
then select Change Option. If the l)ata Access
Objects for Visual Basic checkbox is not
selected, then pick it, click OK, and continue
to install it. If the checkbox is seleaed, then
the Data Access Oblects shnuld be installed
on your systenx so exit inctag.
In Step 2 of the Template Wizard, you can
choose from a ange of database formats to
store information from your template. Of
course,you'llneed a database program capableof reading this database fde to make use
of it.

Let's examine what this small script does.
Line I contains the shebang path !/bin/sh
that instructs the operating system to run
this program using the sh pmgram (bash in
the case of Linux). Line 2 is a comment.
Comments in shell scripts are preceded with
sequentially assigns the variable file each 6lename passed to the Icf script. The $' symbol
holds a list of the filenames. The full extent of
the for loop is contained between do (line 4)
and done (line 13).
Line 5 begins the first if statement, ending
with fi (if spelled backwards) on line 12. This
forms the outer conditionaL The brackets
([] ) in line 5 indicate a test. What we' re testing is whether or not the name we' reexamining is a 6!e (-f). We only want to lowercase
filenames, not directory names. If the condition is true, we go to the then statement, line
6. An expficit then is required in shell scriptlng.
Line 7 (Icfile=...) forms the heart of the
script. We pipe the current 6)ename in the
list ($6)e) through the Linux tr (translate)

shuning down Apache, then restarting it a
few seconds later once we' ve rotated the logs.
Although rotate-apachelogs is a longer
script than Icf, it's a simpler script. There are
no conditionals or loops just a straight

hat puts the polish on many graphical user interface-based (GUIbased) programs is their use of
wizards to help users through a rough spot in
