Ballmer on Windows 7, economy, Google

Posted on 22. Jan, 2009 by SciTech Shark.

In the nutshell, Ballmer says:

  • Windows 7 continues where Vista left off – translation: “we are really sorry Vista did not sell well, but let’s kin off Vista a bet, adjust its engine, make up new name, and sell to people as brand new candy… easy”
  • “I do not know when Windows 7 will be available and it is really up to my geeks team to tell me when I can sell it.”  Translation: Windows 7 beta is really what will become final product, but let’s wait a while and show people that we are really working on it.
  • What does “slower economy means to Microsoft”. Well, probably more easy-to-do reincarnation of existing software that we may sell instead of innovating new ways.
  • “Google may not be defeated” – at least this is my impression of Ballmer’s position in this case
  • “Yahoooo….” – “we do not really know what to do with it”
  • Lay-offs? Not… It is really a “reset time” for the company…

IBM Research’s nanoMRI microscope

Posted on 13. Jan, 2009 by SciTech Shark.

IBM Research scientists, in collaboration with the Center for Probing the Nanoscale at Stanford University, have demonstrated magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with volume resolution 100 million times finer than conventional MRI. This result, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), signals a significant step forward in tools for molecular biology and nanotechnology by offering the ability to study complex 3D structures at the nanoscale. By extending MRI to such fine resolution, the scientists have created a microscope that, with further development, may ultimately be powerful enough to unravel the structure and interactions of proteins, paving the way for new advances in personalized healthcare and targeted medicine. This achievement stands to impact the study of materials from proteins to integrated circuits for which a detailed understanding of atomic structure is essential.
