double-digit growth
party is winding down
In Canada, according to market research Srm IDC Canada, personal computer sales in 2000 grew just 9.5
percent over 1999. This might seem like a
respectableSgure, but the PC industry has
been austomed to a loftier tlight. Just 18
months ago, the same research 6rm reported
PC sales in the first half of 1999
increased 30 percent year over year.
Even notebook computers, which just
take
up
much space
and can be
used anywhere in
the home.
The biggest barrier has been the price difference, but even that's been dramatically
reduced. Last year, you could have purchased
a decent desktop system for about $1300, but
as well as
at school, at work, and while travelling.
Notebook technology is Snally catching up to
what's available on the desktop, so there's no
studyJoe'sentrailshaveanumber of
half decades.
If and when those PC-less homes join the
digital revolution, it will be with devices that
don't 6t the usual PC mould. You' ve no doubt
heardsome of the variations. Tack on "Web-
and software.
If you want to watch, get a TV or Internet
sur6ng box.

products mentioned here are too soft, while
others are far too hard, consider Photolmpact
6, which I find to be just right. Ifiead Systems
makes excellent products for still and video
imaging, and Photolmpact 6 is the company's
most full-featured product.
I like it because it has aU the power I need.
I can import an image, work the contrast,
then mask out the background. I can lay it on
another image and endlessly fuss over every

Both PhotoPaint and Photoshop also have
the ability to crop off colour borders and crop
down toa mask of any shape or to rotate an
arbitrary angular amount to a kaction of a
degree in either direction. What really distinguishes PhotoPaint and Photashop, however,
are the many additional colour modes geared

detailed colour profr)fng.
In addition, the two programs provide

so subtle it goes unnoticed. Only Epson colour ink jet printers have: zggo x?zo

charged lmttery unit that only kicks in when
a power event occurs, at which point it
switches over to the battery. There is a tiny
d elay between power-outage and t h e
switchover to battery Power, and while it' s
usually measured in mere microseconds, that
gap can occasionally be enough to cause a
computer to &cere up or shut down.
What'sworse, though, is that every Power
event causes a standby UPS to switch completely to the battery, which causesmore wear
and tear on the battery module and taluces
the life of the UPS. Because of that, more
manufacturers are moving towards lineinteractive technology.
Line-interactive UPS models feature regulator circuitry and a bridge between the utility
Power and the battery, to mmpensate for

downtime, repairs, environmental and safety conditions, production

restroom, the gal just across congded in me. "He thinks he has got
problems. At our hospital, we have a database for every patient, every
