UserHealth Official Homepage!
UserHealth Official Homepage! This free software is the perfect program for all computer users that spend several hours in front of the computer without breaks or pauses. It is also ideal for everybody that has difficulties in going to bed in time, like me 🙂
The purpose of this program is to be your silent health and sleep supervisor! What UserHealth actually will do is provide you with regular health, pause, and go to bed messages. The messages can be displayed like small popup windows in the right corner (Almost like a MSN login popup) or if you prefer a topmost window or just sound feedback. The messages will contain suggestions about pauses and small exercise that the user can do to stimulate the body. But the main purpose is to draw attention to the user that he or she has been using the computer for a long time and maybe need to take a break.

Apple to ditch IBM, switch to Intel chips | CNET News.com
Apple to ditch IBM, switch to Intel chips | CNET News.com: “Apple has used IBM’s PowerPC processors since 1994, but will begin a phased transition to Intel’s chips, sources familiar with the situation said. Apple plans to move lower-end computers such as the Mac Mini to Intel chips in mid-2006 and higher-end models such as the Power Mac in mid-2007, sources said.
The announcement is expected Monday at Apple’s Worldwide Developer Conference in San Francisco, at which Chief Executive Steve Jobs is giving the keynote speech. The conference would be an appropriate venue: Changing the chips would require programmers to rewrite their software to take full advantage of the new processor.”

How to turn your dual-monitor PC into a dual mac-PC system : Lifehacker: “I have what I believe is my dream setup. My office desk has one keyboard and mouse in the middle, and two monitors above. On the left, I have OS X running from my powerbook and on the right, I have Windows XP running on my HP desktop. There’s one mouse pointer and I can move it back and forth across the monitors just like I was on a single system. While I can’t drag windows from one monitor to the other, I can copy and paste text across and move files easily with mapped desktop drives on both ends.”
SQL Injection Attacks by Example
SQL Injection Attacks by Example: “SQL Injection Attacks by Example: “SQL Injection” is subset of the an unverified/unsanitized user input vulnerability (“buffer overflows” are a different subset), and the idea is to convince the application to run SQL code that was not intended. If the application is creating SQL strings naively on the fly and then running them, it’s straightforward to create some real surprises.”
