Yes, it seems that the next generation computer processors would closely resemble our DNA – well at least IBM is studying the possibilities of using the DNA origami model in order to build next generation processors.
If IBM succeeds, we’ll see 28nm processing technology in the near future and this would mean that you can pack more processing power inside the miniature processor.
Here’s a glimpse on what it might seem as DNA origami:

I believe that the Windows 7 looks rather promising and the media and market is giving it such a positive vibe, I believe that the Windows 7 would overtake the XP anytime soon when it comes to widespread adoption. Nevertheless, even the Microsoft development team has produced a Windows Home Server Power Pack 3 beta version that incorporates all the new features found on Windows 7.
These features are such as support for full image backup of Windows 7 PCs, built-in Windows Search 4, Windows 7 libraries support for shared media folders, Windows Media Center enhancements and many more.
This will be a free update for all current Windows Home Server users – isn’t that great?

When I saw news which revolves around Fujitsu, my initial impression has always been – oh no, not another expensive device produced by Fujitsu! Nevertheless, Fujitsu has unveiled their FUTRO S100 today and it’s one of the industry’s most silent basic PC.
The FUTRO S100 comes with the following hardware specifications:
500MHz VIA Eden ULV processor
1GB of DDR2 memory
2 USB 2.0 connectors
VX800 media processor
VGA output, Ethernet
Chrome9 HC3 graphics
Well it seems that the 500MHz VIA Eden ULV processor only consumes 11 watts of power, thus giving it the ability to work in a very cool environment.
However, Fujitsu has yet to disclose the price for the FUTRO S100. I believe that you’ll need to cross your fingers and pray hard that they won’t sell it ridiculously expensive for such a basic PC?

According to Nintendo, they will be shipping the black Wii sometime this month. What’s even more shocking is the fact that they have not made plans to ship the black Wii to the United States market.
No official reasons were given by Nintendo on their moves to make the black Wii unavailable for the US market.
Of course, I believe that you shouldn’t bet high that Nintendo might change their mind. Well, there’s always eBay or other online sources which you can purchase these black Wii right?

For those who are looking for an alternative solution for the Maemo MIDs, I believe that the Optima OP5-E MID would definitely fit your criteria as the second best non-Nokia solution that runs on Maemo.
This particular MID has an 806MHz Marvell processor and it even comes with 128MB of RAM. However, the MID currently does not support telephony or SMS, but I believe that the company has made plans to incorporate such features into the device. Also, the Optima OP5-E MID has a 4.3 touchscreen which looks simply stylish, which I think pretty much resembles the iPhone.
Take a look at the Optima OP5-E MID:
