   comments,  called-out One side effect of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks on 
New York and Washington has been a surge of interest in biometric security. 
Biometrics is the practice of using something on the body–a fingerprint, a 
facial pattern or the unique pattern of the eye–in place of a password to gain 
access to a computer network or individual PC. Biometrics, its backers say, will 
save us from the laziness of passwords that are never really secure, pin numbers 
that are never really secret, and other security measures that often fail 
because they are rarely implemented correctly in the first place.Powered by Goldvk Forum ,the perfessional game raiders forum,including game raides,instance,Game Gold(Guild Wars 2 gold  ), equipment, pvp, quests, etc.
In refreshing its laptop PC line, MicronPC has added a fingerprint scanner 
authentication system to its Transport GX2. The scanner is made by Veridicom *, 
a spinoff of Lucent Technologies ; Veridicom was acquired by STMicroelectronics 
earlier this year. Without the right fingerprint, the machine won’t start up.

Using technology developed at Bell Labs, the Veridicom scanner creates a 
geometric image based on the location of different points in the fingerprint 
itself. The image becomes a password that allows the machine to start up the 
boot process. Other companies have created fingerprint scanners that can be 
inserted into the PC card slot, but few have gone so far as to embed the scanner 
directly into the body of the machine. 
Fingerprint scanning is just the start. Aside from building in a fingerprint 
scanner, the notebook also ships with built-in IEEE 802.11b wireless networking 
gear. Also known as Wi-Fi, the technology is used for wireless networks in the 
office, at home, and in public places, such as airports and the occasional 
coffee shop, for quick and easy access to a fast Internet connection. Find
