Chomping at the (64) bit
For years, mainstream PC processors have been capable of calculating 64 bits (binary digits) at a time, an advancement over 32 bits that can potentially speed up some applications—like gaming and photo editing—and allow the PC to use virtually unlimited memory space. Apple PCs running Mac OS 10.5 already have full support for 64-bit operation. But, so far, Windows PCs marketed to consumers have overwhelmingly been equipped with only a 32-bit version of Windows Vista. Well, no more. New PCs from Gateway and HP that we recently tested for our Latest Ratings of desktop computers (available to subscribers) are only sold with the 64-bit version of Windows Vista Home Premium. Why? The main reason, we think, is that they are equipped with more than the 3 GB of memory (RAM) that the 32-bit version of Vista can use. Moving to 64-bit memory addressing allows PC makers to equip desktops and laptops with (ultimately) many times more RAM than before—potentially 8,192 GB. This will usher in a new generation of applications with enormous memory-usage capabilities, improving performance in such areas as home-video editing. But there are downsides to 64-bit computing.

NewsFactor - China may be open to the Olympics, but it has shut off access to Apple's iTunes Store -- apparently because of a new album dedicated to Tibet.

Cuba tops USA 10-2 in semi; bronze game looms
Baseball might be as American as apple pie, but the gold medal hopes of the U.S. team proved to be pie-in-the-sky dreams on Friday night. Cuba's experienced Olympic team defeated the U.S. 10-2 behind four home runs and the pitching of Norge Luis Vera and Pedro Luis Lazo, meaning that they'll be no gold medal for U.S. in baseball until 2016 at least.
