We'll highlight a few of the interesting search terms and take stock of what's shakin' in the world's busiest search engine. Surprise, surprise.

Cisco Systems has introduced a new data center switch, to go with the new Fiber Channel Over Ethernet standard networking platform, that is mind-bogglingly powerful and fast. With the increasing demand placed on networks by high bandwith applications like video, and the amount of just plain data that any business generates, data centers are constantly struggling to increase capacity. Cisco's new Nexus 7000 will allow greater consolidation of data centers because even enormous amounts of information can be moved to and from remote storage locations fast. How fast is fast?

AMD is advising ATI Radeon graphics users to update to Catalyst version 7.8 once it is available at its software and drivers...

Tonight we'll kick off the weekend with something off-topic that might just get you fighting mad - as in angry. We all know the health care system here in the US leaves a lot to be desired in spots. Insurance companies shafting patients in need, drug companies gouging; you know the drill. But when the “good Doctor” is too blinded by his own jaded view of the people that he is charged with the responsibility of healing, it’s just plain inexcusable. We’re all human, sure. Humans make mistakes. However, if the pride of something as superficial as our vocational pedigree gets in the way of sound judgment, it quickly goes beyond human – or in other words - inhumane. "The doctor...

Microsoft sold 20 million copies of Windows Vista in February, a rather strong start according to them. In comparison, Windows XP sold 17 million copies in the two months follow its release. While the numbers are there, analysts warn it's still a little to early to gauge the OS's overall popularity, and it's also worth noting that even though Vista's sales are stronger than XP's were, the number of consumers have nearly doubled since XP's launch. "Starting in late October, PC makers included coupons for free or low-cost Vista upgrades that could be used once the software became available at the end of January. Microsoft's...
