Adobe has announced that its next version of Photoshop will include 64-bit capacity, but due to a recent Mac programming quirk, the higher-rate application will only be available for Windows.
Advanced Micro Devices will detail its "Pacifica" virtualisation technology by the end of this month, enabling software companies to start working with the feature, which makes it easier for a computer to run several operating systems simultaneously.
A headline like that is bound to draw the ire of the Macintosh faithful. After all, since Microsoft, which can marshal its forces and target competitors at will with lethal precision, hasn't finished-off Apple after all these years (and I'm not saying that this was necessarily a Redmond goal), how on earth can an operating system like Linux spell trouble for Apple?
Today, even the cheapest notebook computers outstrip the performance needs of the most demanding business users, and you no longer have to settle for a desktop because the notebook is too expensive.
In this roundup we looked at both internal and external storage devices. We got our hands on the all-new Castlewood ORB51100 drive, which uses 5.7GB media. We looked at a variety of solutions including PC Card based solutions and all sorts of different media capacities.
Today's notebooks come with a vast range of processors, but will they give you the best performance? Our comprehensive review benchmarks 19 of the latest mobile processors, giving you an insight into the best chips on the market.
From a do-it-yourself perspective, we're mostly unimpressed with AMD's new 2.5GHz Phenom X4 9850 quad-core desktop processor.

It's as fast as we imagined, but we wish AMD's new dual-core chip played better with other computer parts out of the gate.
AMD and Intel both have dual-core CPUs out on the market, but which chip maker's technology is truly the best? To find the answer, we built two testbeds as nearly identical as we could and ran each chip through a battery of tests.
Processors are now called upon to handle everything from simple text and graphics, through 3D games, to serious tasks like video rendering. We put Intel and AMD's desktop CPUs through the labs to see how they cope.
