Err, does that even count?

The Beatles are finally available in digital form. However, you need to shell out $279.99 for it. Granted, it comes in an apple-shaped USB stick,
both in FLAC and MP3 formats. It seems they are all-together shunning the iTunes music store. Apple Corps and EMI Music have announced the worldwide
release a limited edition of only 30,000 Stereo USB devices. What do you get for that? The same thing the band and EMI Music Group are already selling
for $219: All of the band's music, in a remastered stereo mix — the same just released in a CD set. For all those die-hard fans paying
extra yet, you get the same tunes bundled up in a single USB stick.

It looks like Microsoft are getting closer to putting Windows onto a portable USB Flash drive.
The All About Microsoft blog has news an an
upcoming Microsoft Start Key. It is the same kind of thing as U3 but more windows-centric. The idea being that you could plug it in to a computer at
home/school/work or even a public kiosk and have all of your settings, wallpaper, windows Live Contacts, favorites etc. with you.
Microsoft’s goal is to build an end-to-end StartKey environment — comprised of everything from system software on the flash devices, a
software development kit to enable third-party developers to create products that can leverage StartKey, and accompany Microsoft applications and
services, sources said.

Conversion Pack
Windows Server 2003 is well
known for its superior speed,
stability, and security when
compared to Windows XP. This
fact is proven by
Microsoft's use of the

Given this fact, it's no
wonder that many Windows users
have already switched to
Windows Server 2003 to gain
such improvements. However,
these users will have no doubt
also discovered that
compatibility issues are
common when using Windows
Server 2003 as a primary
home-use OS. Until Now... We
are proud to present version
2.0 of Windows X's
popular Windows Server 2003 -
XP Conversion Pack. This tool
will convert the Windows 2003
codebase from ServerNT to
WinNT, which will enable
locked features and transform
Windows Server 2003 into a
more compatible, and usable OS
like Windows XP. After
converting, your OS will
perform like Windows XP
Professional x64 Edition.
Finally you can gain all the
advantages of running Windows
Server 2003, without the
compatibility headaches!..

Created in IBM's Zurich Research Lab,
the "security on a stick" is still a prototype and being tested in a few trials in Europe, says Michael Baentsch, a senior researcher there. IBM,
which unveiled the device today, officially calls it the "Zone Trusted Information Channel" because the little USB-based device works to set up a
