Adesso Cybertablet Z12 - works with Photoshop
Thursday, January 24th, 2008
Adesso has released a new graphics tablet named CybertabletZ12, which has an affordable price of $180 and a good set of features, like the inclusion of different software such as Adobe Photoshop Elements 5.0, and Power Presenter RE II.
One of the most important details - the writing area - measures 10 x 6.25, which seems to be good enough for the average computer artist. Since the Cybertablet Z12S can be used for a couple of various tasks, like drawing, sketching, and picture editing, the pen being used must be good, and that is why it features 1024 levels of pressure sensitive - to make it as precise as possible.
- No need for separate power adapter, completely USB powered.
- High resolution, supports up to 1000 lines per inch.

It looks like Western Digital’s hard drives are about to get a good deal denser, with the company now rolling out its first 3.5-inch WD Caviar drives based on 320GB-per-platter technology. That, as the company points out, is the very same areal density seen recently in WD’s 160 GB-per-platter 2.5-inch Scorpio drives, which topped out with a total of 320GB of storage due to the obvious size constraints. While the 3.5-inch drives have plenty more room to grow than their smaller counterparts, Western Digital seems to be starting things out slow, with only a single-platter 320GB drive available at the moment. That’ll apparently be followed by upgrades across WD’s various product lines throughout the year, including drives at “additional capacity points.,” Unfortunately, the company doesn’t seem to be ready to specify exactly what those points may be just yet, although The Inquirer speculates that we should see three-platter 1TB drives from the company before everything is all said and done.



Israel is reportedly developing a sophisticated piece of software meant to help troops make quick decisions during battle and, under the right conditions, autonomously manipulate the nation’s defense systems. First reported in Defense News (subscription required), the unnamed system would primarily be used for tactical decisions during periods of heavy bombardment, although in a worst-case scenario, the complex algorithm would supposedly be capable of taking over total military control. Yes, we know what you’re thinking, but don’t worry: Israeli officials have already sworn up and down that “there’s no way we’re letting this thing go Terminator on us — no freakin’ way.”
