.... to efficiently and economically create professional looking documents such as memoranda, letters, reports, and resumes. With a word processor, one can easily revise a document. To improve the accuracy of one's writing, word processors can check the spelling and the grammar in a document. They also provide a thesaurus to enable a user to add variety and precision to his or her writing. Many word processing programs also provide desktop publishing features to create brochures, advertisements, and newsletters. An electronic spreadsheet enables a user to organize data in a fashion similar to a paper spreadsheet. The difference is the user does not have to perform calcula ....

.... pursuit for the 'hack'. Just as they were enthralled with their pursuit of information, so are we. The thrill of the hack is not in breaking the law, it's in the pursuit and capture of knowledge. To this end, let me contribute my suggestions for guidelines to follow to ensure that not only you stay out of trouble, but you pursue your craft without damaging the computers you hack into or the companies who own them. I. Do not intentionally damage *any* system. II. Do not alter any system files other than ones needed to ensure your escape from detection and your future access (Trojan Horses, Altering Logs, and the like are all necessary to your survival f ....

.... help you get it going again. In addition, back up any files with an extension of .sys. For Windows systems, all files with an extension of .ini and .grp should also be backed up. Next any time you work inside you computer turn off the power and disconnect the equipment form the power source. Before you touch anything inside the computer, touch and unpainted metal surface such as the power supply. This will help to discharge any static electricity that could damage internal components. Now you should periodically, defragment your hard disk. Defragmenting your hard disk reorganizes files so they are in contiguous clusters and makes disk operations faster. Defragmentati ....

.... sound that is not only stored digitally, but also has been created and manipulated with computers. Viewers are witnessing the results of all this in the form of stories and experiences that they never dreamed of before. Perhaps the most surprising aspect of all this, however, is that the entire digital effects and animation industry is still in its infancy. The future looks bright. How It Was In the beginning, computer graphics were as cumbersome and as hard to control as dinosaurs must have been in their own time. Like dinosaurs, the hardware systems, or muscles, of early computer graphics were huge and ungainly. The machines often filled entire buildings. Also like ....

.... don't exist yet or won't be coming until America until the new fall TV season rears its ugly head, we at Sega Radar feel obligated to bask in the warm, charisma-building, hype-free glow of the Dreamcast and its many wonderful game titles. Also, we plan to conclusively prove that the Dreamcast makes it 33 percent less likely you'll ever walk for six hours with a piece of broccoli stuck in your teeth, or toilet paper on your shoe. But you knew that already. While screen shots from PlayStation2 titles filter in from Japan, we are all, of course, duly impressed. No one will doubt the power of Sony's newest behemoth, or the sheer beauty of its games. Titles such as Ridge Racer ....

.... up incredible uses for this technology including using it as a sort of drug. This became evident when, among other people, Timothy Leary became interested in VR. This has also worried some of the researchers who are trying to create very real applications for medical, space, physical, chemical, and entertainment uses among other things. In order to create this alternate reality, however, you need to find ways to create the illusion of reality with a piece of machinery known as the computer. This is done with several computer-user interfaces used to simulate the senses. Among these, are stereoscopic glasses to make the simulated world look real, a 3D auditory display ....

.... conflicts lie on the issue of whether information should be made publicly available or not (centralise or decentralise government) and on issues of law enforcement. Hackers have raised serious issues about values and practices in an information society. Introduction It is true that computers and telecommunication networks have become a growing aspect of our society and of course of our lives. This type of technology is used to support unlawful as well as legal activities. Personal computers and especially the Internet consist of a collection of tools, which attract people from all social classes. People like housewives, workers and chief executives. Nowadays criminals are ....

.... Multiple bits are used to represent characters, which then can represent words, numbers, programs, etc. The analog signals are just varying voltages sent across the wires over time. Digital signals are represented and transmitted by pulses with a limited number of discrete voltage levels. [Hopkins] The modem was certainly a big breakthrough in computer technology. It allowed computers to communicate with each other by converting their digital communications into an analog format to travel through the public phone network. However, there is a limit to the amount of information that a common analog telephone line can hold. Currently, it is about 28.8 kbit/s. [Hopkins] ISDN ....
