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( http://www.goldvk.com/Game.gw2_us.Guild%20Wars%202.gw2.Gold.Info.aspx" rel="nofollow - 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

The laptops also ship with Intel Pentium III-M processors running at clock
speeds of up to 1.2 gigahertz, and with a 15-inch SXGA active matrix display.
They ship with Microsoft ‘s Windows XP installed. Prices start at about $2,250.Find cheapest http://www.goldvk.com/Game.gw2_us.Guild%20Wars%202.gw2.Gold.Info.aspx" rel="nofollow - Guild Wars 2 gold new from us.

acquired by STMicroelectronics.
