old school OS

Devicelogics™, Inc., providers of DOS- and Linux-based embedded systems technologies, today began shipping DR-DOS 8.0, the latest version of this industry standard embedded operating system. Most noteworthy among enhancements to DR-DOS 8.0 is its new FAT32/large partition support, enabling this stable OS to keep up with market demand for DOS-based embedded solutions built on FAT32 platforms.

“DR-DOS is the fastest-to-market, the most reliable—and with new FAT32 and Linux extensions—the absolute best operation system for single-task embedded devices,” said Bryan Sparks, co-founder and CEO, Devicelogics.

Fortune 500 companies continue to depend on DOS-based devices to deliver their day-to-day services. DR-DOS is widely deployed by industry leading company’s using single-application, single-task systems including barcode scanners, kiosks, handheld inventory management systems, medical systems, satellite dishes, video gaming devices and fast food order processing systems. DR-DOS is especially valuable to large-volume embedded system OEMs.

“Arguably, DOS remains one of the most stable OS environments,” said Troy Tribe, Co-Founder and Principal, Devicelogics. “With the enhancements included in version 8.0, DR-DOS will continue to be deployed on embedded devices where stability, ease-of-deployment and speed-of-deployment are king.”

NEWS : "The 40-year-old Mr. Everett was raised in McLean, Va., with his sister Elizabeth, mother Nancy and father Hugh Everett III, a quantum physicist who in 1957 proposed a formal theory of parallel universes known as 'The Many-Worlds Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics.' 'Everett's work has boggled minds inside and outside physics for more than four decades,' reported Scientific American in last month's issue. Mr. Everett said his brilliant father wasn't communicative at home. When I asked him what the conversation was like around the breakfast table, he replied, 'There wasn't any.' 'Physicists and geniuses don't always make great family men. I lived with him for 18 years and I learned more about him from the Internet.' Mr. Everett's family was a heartrending source of inspiration for his most notable work, the 1998 album 'Electro-Shock Blues' (DreamWorks), written after his sister committed suicide and h...

Digital Cam media safe to fly with

Technocrat.net : "Recent tests found no evidence of X-ray scanner damage to digital camera media cards or to the images they hold. The tests of scanner models currently in use in the U.S. transportation industry were jointly conducted by the International Imaging Industry Association (I3A), the leading global association for the imaging industry; SanDisk Corporation, a manufacturer of digital media cards; and the U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA). These findings mean that digital cameras and their image storage media can travel safely in either checked or carry-on bags, which will be reassuring to holiday travelers. And though they were not explicitly tested, it is likely that images on camera-phones will be safe in either situation as well. More care is needed for cameras with film, however, as the X-ray scanners for both checked and carry-on luggage can fog both developed and undeveloped film."
