SanDisk Sansa e270 6GB MP3 Player

Now, 11 months after the introduction of a brand new product line, SanDisk is well positioned and a relatively serious threat to the Nano.

Face Off: Windows vs Linux Real World RAM and Disk Tests

"Windows’ memory usage went up by 0.07GB, or 71.68MB. The CPU still fluctuated madly but hung around 20%. Under Fedora, memory usage increased by only 50MB and with a maximum processor utilisation of 4%, shortly resuming to 1% while sitting idle (with Windows still jumping all about.) Closing each application did release the memory and this was reliably repeated over several tests. However, opening Microsoft Word multiple times – including with a large 53 page document – did consume substantially more memory than the equivalent actions and document with OpenOffice Writer. Additionally, Fedora’s processor usage remained in low numbers, and barely rose above 1% when idle."

Open Source Cards Project Meets Objections

An attempt to create an open-source set of public safety protocol cards has run into a legal setback after a commercial company issued an Internet cease-and-desist order that claimed copyright infringement. The cards were developed by the Open ISES Project, which has also developed an open-source CAD software application, and posted on-line just last March. However, last week the group says it received a letter from attorneys representing Medical Priority Consultants, who apparently stated that the open source cards infringed on the company's copyrights. In response, the Project took down the cards, and issued a statement explaining their actions. "We are hoping that we can work out an agreement with them. However, until such time, we had to take the site and associated files down," said Robert Austin, who manages the Project.
