.... A CB radio is a simplex device. That is, two people communicating on a CB radio use the same frequency, so only one person can talk at a time. A cell phone is a duplex device, so it uses one frequency for talking, and a second separate frequency for listening (Dang). A CB radio has 40 channels. A cell phone can communicate on 1,664 channels. Cell phones also operate within cells and they can switch cells as they move around. Cells give cell phones incredible range. A walkie-talkie can transmit perhaps a mile. A CB radio, because it has much higher power, can transmit perhaps 5 miles. Someone using a cell phone, on the other hand, can drive clear acros .....

.... sector virus infects the boot program used to start the system. When the infected boot program executes, the virus is loaded into the computer's memory. Once a virus is in memory, it can spread to any floppy disk inserted into the computer. A file virus inserts virus code into program files. The virus then spreads to any program that accesses the infected file. A Trojan horse virus (named after the Greek myth) hides within or is designed to look like a legitimate program. Some viruses interrupt processing by freezing a computer system temporarily and then displaying sounds or messages. Other viruses contain time bombs or logic bombs. A time bomb is a progra .....

.... In this day and age of internet use, people in any given location can choose from at least fifteen national companies, such as sprintlink, compuserve, ameritech, erols and so on. Using these services are less expensive than America Online. Per month for unlimited use they average at around $10 to $15 dollars as opposed to AOL's hefty $19.95 a month. AOLers are paying for the appealing menus, graphics and services AOL uses to drive their customers to the internet. These same features can be located anywhere else on the net with the aid of any search device, such as infoseek, yahoo, microsoft network or web- crawler. These sites are no harder to use and the .....

.... information obtained, or by blackmail. In today's fast-paced computerized world, knowledge is indeed power. Through the miracle of the Internet, information can be shared and accessed around the globe, instantaneously. At any given time, millions of people's credit card numbers, social security numbers, and other private data are flying through phone lines near your house. The downside to this technological marvel that we all use, whether we know it or not, is that thieves, disgruntled network administrators, and other unsavory characters can make an easy living off of the Internet, maybe even stealing from you. How? It's all in a day's work for them. .....

.... society. For example, the hunter-gatherer cultures of prehistoric times were constantly moving about and lacked the stability necessary for the development of civilization. However, as advances were made in tools and discoveries were made in cultivation, these cultures became more stationary and more time was diverted from the pursuit of nutrition to the development of civilization. This can clearly be demonstrated through the fact that all major ancient civilizations including Egypt, Mesopotamia, China, and India were founded upon a stationary, river-based agricultural system ("Agriculture" Encarta 1999). Similarly, technological advances in the field .....

.... as part to make the products better. The Microsoft is trying to enhance the popular Windows Operating System (OS) by integrating the web browser Internet Explorer 4.0 (IE4) into it. The integrating of Internet Explorer with the Windows OS is the logical step in enhancing everyone’s ease of computer use, and it is not an anti-competitive practice on the part of Microsoft. This type of integration is vital to the advancement of technology. It makes products better. We may not realize it but adding things to the heart of Windows has been going on since the day it was made. Things like memory management, disk compression, or networking have been added to the .....

.... create faster machines that can store much more information. For speed, the internal microprocessor has been tweaked to perform at high rates of speed. One such microprocessor is the Intel Pentium chip that is the fastest commercial microprocessor on the market. In addition to internal speed and to allow faster hook- up to the Internet, faster telephone lines, most notably the fiber optic lines, have been added, for an extra charge, to transfer data about 4 times faster than conventional phone lines (about 28,000 bits per second has been quadrupled to about 128,000 bits per second. As speed enhances, memory and storage space is needed to hold excess info .....
