The increasing prevalence of red light cameras and the legal questions that come with them, have caused one city in South Dakota to completely flip the switch on its cameras. In 2006, I.L. Wiedermann received a ticket in the mail for passing through a red light in Sioux Falls. Instead of saying "Oh crap" and just paying the fine like most people, Wiedermann filed a lawsuit against Redflex, the company that operates the cameras. That lawsuit led to a different issue entirely, which came to a head last month. In state court, Judge Kathleen Caldwell said that the entire process set up by Sioux Falls was illegal.

Caldwell said that the city was issuing civil tickets to motorists caught passing a red light, which is a criminal offense. Moreover, she said that the appeals process did not provide defendants with an assumption of innocence. "In light of that ruling, it was decided to suspend the system for now," said Sioux Falls Police Chief Doug Barthel. USB and Firewire Enclosure Adapter RAID Encryption Etc. All In One- Slash Gear.

Share This Review: Share on facebook Share on twitter Share on email Share on google More Sharing Services Back in October of 2009, when we reviewed the Gateway One ZX6810-01, we tagged it as the most powerful all-in-one (AIO) PC we'd ever seen.

Since then, comparable models from competing brands have made their way through our testing labs, though none has yet matched the ZX6810’s stellar combination of price and features. Competing models have either been significantly more expensive, like the $1,800 Sony VAIO L Series VPCL117FX/T, or hampered by a component-based Achilles’ heel, like the recently reviewed Gateway One ZX6900-01e, which is saddled with integrated Intel graphics. Aesthetically, the IdeaCentre B500 makes a respectable attempt at continuing the IdeaCentre line’s tradition of combining handsome good looks with crowd-pleasing features. The display’s bezel is made of glossy black plastic, and the base that props it up is silver and shiny. Next, we stepped up our gaming tests.

Averatec D1200 25.5-Inch All-In-One PC Review - ComputerShopper. Share This Review: Share on facebook Share on twitter Share on email Share on google More Sharing Services At about 3 inches thick, the Averatec D1200's body is pleasingly svelte for an all-in-one. Traditionally, the trade-off for buying an all-in-one desktop like the Apple iMac or our recent favorite, the Lenovo ThinkCentre A600, is that it typically costs hundreds of dollars more than comparable hardware in a typical tower with a separate LCD.

In fact, we priced the parts from our favorite online outlet, and found it almost impossible to build a desktop system with the D1200's specs (including a 25.5-inch, 1,920x1,200 monitor, 2.5GHz Pentium Dual Core E5200 processor, 4GB of RAM, a digital TV tuner with remote, and a 320GB, 7,200rpm hard drive) for under $900. We prefer the design of Lenovo's ThinkCentre A600 to the Averatec D1200's comparatively boring piano-black look. The other all-in-one PC to get a fair amount of press lately is the Dell Studio One 19.

The dev-centric TI Blaze tablet There was a time when the closest thing to a tablet computer was the Texas Instruments calculators. Personally, we still remember the time we finally got Golf to start working on our TI-83. Truly those were magical times. But now it’s time to turn in the most expensive thing in your bookbag — Texas Instruments has upgraded to the new Blaze tablet. The Blaze uses a development platform developed by Texas Instruments called OMAP 4 which is tailored to mobile hardware and features applications processors and low energy consumption. In short, it’s meant to work with a multitude of software. The Blaze name isn’t happenstance.
