Don't write off newspapers By John Schenkenfelder The newspaper industry has been on the ropes for the last 10 years. Ad revenues, reader subscription and employment headcount have been declining as newsprint costs have risen. Readers have been drifting toward Internet news sources and television or radio broadcasts. Newspaper editions are getting smaller as companies struggle to cut costs.

EeePC keyboards different on black and white models

Filed under: Laptops Okay, this is pretty much for the crazy keyboard aficionados out there, but the crew over at Laptop says there's a distinct difference between the keyboards on the black and white Eee PC laptops. They compared the 'boards on a white 701, black 4G Surf, and white 900, and while the two white Eees had identical keys, the black unit featured different switches with deeper keypresses and more tactile feedback, smaller spaces between the keys, and rougher plastic.

And until that changes, the trends will be difficult to reverse. The upshot of the status quo is that Mumbai and Beijing – often by way of MIT and Stanford – are currently producing a good amount of the talent that Bill Gates needs to keep Microsoft competitive. I

Last Loop to London - London, England, United Kingdom

Jump to the full entry & travel map London, England, United Kingdom We took an early flight back to London on the European airline Ryan Air.
