IBM on Monday will roll-out a revamped server lineup that revolves around Intel’s latest server chips.Intel’s Xeon 5550 chips, formerly known as Nehalem, will give IBM’s servers a performance boost.
IBM calls the System x retooling its “most comprehensive upgrade to its family of x86 products.”In a nutshell, IBM’s latest systems can handle 3.5-times more bandwidth and 2.25-times better performance for enterprise computing.
IBM added that it designed its servers cut power costs and operate in a virtualized cloud data center. To that end, IBM also updated its management software.Here’s a look at IBM’s server lineup. All of them have Intel Xeon processors with speeds running from 2 GHz to 2.93 GHz with the power draw ranging from 60 watts to 95 watts.System x3550 M2 and x3650 M2:
These rack servers are redesigned with voltage regulators and a new thermal design to cut energy loss.
- BladeCenter HS22: This blade server has a memory capacity up to 96GB and can process twice as many transactions as its prior version.
System x iDataPlex dx360 M2: This blade server is more dense than its predecessor and designed for tight spaces.
In addition, IBM rolled out tools to go with its servers including IBM Systems Director 6.1 to manage virtual resources, new firmware and diagnostics modules.

1. First go to Google Images : images.Google.com
2. Search for anything you want like "flowers , cats , dogs,etc"
3. Next, you’ll see lot of image thumbnails as usual…
4. Now, here is the trick :
Just copy and paste this code in your address bar and press Enter.
See what happens.. (surprise for you… )

Conficker worm which starts affect the most of the PC on April 1. Microsoft says that conficker worm is scheduled to do its vulnerability attack on April 1. If the worm is sitting in your PC worm can take over the control of your system.
Microsoft says : The vulnerability could allow an anonymous attacker to successfully take full control of a vulnerable system through a network-based attack. If you are updating your anti virus software regularly then your anti virus software will protect your pc from vulnerable attack. If you are not updating your PC regularly then the vulnerability may take control your system.
This vulnerability attacks Windows Server service used by Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008.
If your computer is infected with this worm, you may not experience any symptoms, or you may experience any of the following symptoms:
- Account lockout policies are being tripped.
- Automatic Updates, Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS),
- Windows Defender, and Error Reporting Services are disabled.
- Domain controllers respond slowly to client requests.
- The network is congested.
- Various security-related Web sites cannot be accessed.
To protect your PC install conficker remover
Microsoft released a security update MS08-067 to resolve this vulnerability and some of the anti virus software companies also released conficker removal tool.

The new processors are all based on Intel’s 45 nm manufacturing process, and they basically utilize the same silicon as the regular, non-S models, centering on the Core 2 Duo ‘Wolfdale’ design, utilizing two processing cores. Intel puts two of these onto one physical processor to create a Core 2 Quad processor, which it refers to as Yorkfield. Supporters of monolithic processor design have criticized this approach, saying it would not result in a true quad-core. And indeed, the disadvantage is increased front side bus traffic due to inter-core communication. However, we believe that the real judge should be the benchmarks, and the results there have been nice: the Core 2 Quad delivers high performance at an acceptable power consumption level.
S-Series Models
The S-series currently consists of three processor models. All have exactly the same technical characteristics and performance as the corresponding regular models, but they are rated at a maximum thermal design power of 65 W. The Core 2 Quad Q8200S runs at 2.33 GHz and has two 2 MB L2 caches; the Core 2 Quad Q9400S is a 2.66 GHz part with two 3 MB caches; and the Q9550S top model runs at 2.83 GHz and has the full 6 MB L2 cache for each dual core die, resulting in a total of 12 MB L2 cache.
Power Matters
Having four cores run at only 65 W is a significant step, as this has been the thermal design limit for Intel’s Core 2 Duo processors since their introduction. This means that virtually any Core 2 Duo system that was designed to be energy efficient will now be able to work with these quad cores as well, effectively doubling the performance reserves.
However, Intel is not the first company to deploy a 65 W quad core processor for desktops, as AMD presented its Phenom X4 9100e in May 2008. Credit belongs to AMD as the first, but the 9100e wasn’t a high-performance part at only a 1.8 GHz clock speed. Not only is the Core 2 Quad faster when compared at the same clock speed, but the new S-series models at 65 W are available at mainstream clock speeds of up to 2.83 GHz. The higher frequencies mean that they are able to provide substantial performance even for traditional applications that may not be able to benefit from multiple processing cores.
“Registry Editing Has Been Disabled By Your Administrator”
Use This way:
Use the gpedit.msc to enable the registry editor.
Go to run than type gpedit.msc
than Click on Administrative Templates
Click the System and locate the Prevent access to registry editing tools and double click on it
