.... and suffering due to a worldwide depression? A scale that would be twenty-times the size of the Great Depression during the 1920's. Technology has so wondrously and destructively marveled the human mind and body throughout the centuries. From out of the dark depths of the mind have sprung explosive ideas, producing inventions that have transformed minute villages into gigantic civilizations; stimulating population increases throughout the world. Simple tasks such as the automatic traffic signal, and railway air brakes (the first safe method of stopping trains) have advanced .....

.... meet a deadline. They also teamed up with Intel to supply its chips for the first IBM personal computer. When the personal computer hit the market it was a major hit and IBM became a strong power in electronic computers. Phoenix Technologies went through published documentation to figure out the internal operating system (BIOS) in the IBM. In turn, they designed a BIOS of their own which could be used with IBM computers. It stood up in courts and now with a non IBM BIOS, the clone was created. Many manufacturers jumped in and started making their own IBM Compatible compu .....

.... hard disk of the computer could be endangered by the flood of coffee. Besides, human caretaker of computer system can cause as much as harm as any physical hazard. For example, a cashier in a bank can transfer some money from one of his customer's account to his own account. Nonetheless, the most dangerous thief are not those who work with computer every day, but youthful amateurs who experiment at night --- the hackers. The term "hacker "may have originated at M.I.T. as students' jargon for classmates who labored nights in the computer lab. In the beginning, hackers are .....

.... to a host. When I travel from place to place (site to site), I do not cover any known physical distances, but instead I cover visual distance. Just as many people do, I refer to the places that I visit as virtual worlds. I like calling them this because I never actually get to see the reality of the "world". I only get to see it electronically and digitally. The feeling that I experience while in cyberspace is knowing that I possess the power to visit any where I want. When I click one of the buttons on the mouse, or what I refer to as a transporter, I feel as thoug .....

.... of the tags, you can create a web page, as you desire. Now let's start creating a web page. The very first thing you need to put into your HTML document is a tag, it identifies the entire document as an HTML document. The next thing you will do is to create a header. An HTML document can be roughly divided into two sections: header and body. Header is where you display information about your web page, like its title. In a basic HTML document, header has two kinds of tags. First is the tag, it identifies this section as a header section. Inside the head is the tag, w .....

.... with Artificial Intelligence programs control robots that are fully automatic. Robots are taught to perform repetitive tasks. Intelligent robots incorporate the other disciplines of Artificial Intelligence like, human sensory simulation for touch, sight, and hearing. Our future will definitely have a place for robots. Some radicals believe that robots will eventually take over our planet. “Fifty years, tops, until the robots exceed us,” says Hans Moravec, director of Carnegie Mellon's Mobile Robot Lab. "When you compare the evolution of mental abilities in animals .....

.... cycle and the fact that applications can be developed by a reasonably sophisticated end user. The main disadvantage is that RAD tools often require code to be written, which will result in most developers probably having to learn to program using the underlying programming language, except in the case of the simplest applications. The time gained from using a RAD tool can be immense, however: Programmers using IBM's VisualAge report the ability to create up to 80 percent of an application visually, with the last 20 percent consisting of specialized functions, which means by .....

.... physical spaces for the year in this date format, after '99', the only logical choice is to reset the number to '00'. The year 2000 problem is unlike any other problem in modern history for several reasons. William Adams points out some of the most important ones. "Time is running out- the Year 2000 is inevitable! The problem will occur simultaneously worldwide, time zones withstanding. It affects all languages and platforms, hardware & software. The demand for solutions will exceed the supply. Survivors will survive big, losers will lose big. There is no 'silver bullet' that .....
