back on reviews of Web authoring
tools from 1996. Of the tive major
products we review in this roundup, only
two Microsoft FrontPage and SoftQuad
HoTMetaL Pro were among the 24 programs reviewed just four yearsago.
Back then, the buzz was about the visual

buttons, text and images. Even targeting for

rendered by the Cult3D softwme, online shoppers can control the rotation of the image in 3D
space with their mouse. They can also interact
with the virtual object, dicking on buttons with
their mouse, for example.
Several Web sites already employ the Cycore
software. Jt/c (http: //wnw.jvc.corn/featprod6.htmlj,
for example, uses Cult3D to-showcase several

Darwin 1.0 posting includes some of the
most advanced operating system technology available, and it's open to our customers
and developers so that we may collaborate
on the future of the Mac OS."
Darwin is based on Mach 3.0 kernel technologies. and is pracessor-independent,
allowing software development to take
place on Intel x66 or Power PC-based computing plafforms. Darwin doesn't represent
a total open-source access to the forthcoming Mac OS X, but according to Apple, it
will allow developers "to enhance the feature set, performance and quatity of Mac
OS X products in partnership with Apple
engineers."
Also announced at Internet World was an
open-source Darwin Streaming Server software, to allow for streaming media distribution via the Internet. Expected for release in
May, Darwin Streaming Server is aimed at
attracting developer support on a vanety of
computer platforms. including Ltnux,
Windows NT and Solaria, as well as the forthcoming Mac OS X.

encounter.
For a successful installation. connect the
mouse to the USB port after you login to
Windows, and not betore. Windows will
sense the mouse immediately and ask you
where it should get the driver.
You will also have to navigate a dialogue
box designed for mouse use with only your
keyboard. Most users will need some assistance at this point. The driver you need is
probably already on your system, so you
should indicate the Windows directory as
the place to look. If it isn't there, you may
need your Windows installation CD-ROM.
If you run into problems, consider connecti ng th e m ouse vi a a P S/2 p o rt . T h i s

Once I had passed this sticky stage, everything was fine. I installed the InteUiPoint
software and customized my settings. The
operation of the mouse is exemplary. The

InteUiPoint s oftware has m any u seful
options, and the red glow in the dark is a
bonus.
Unfortunately, although I'm left-handed,
I'm more comfortable using this mouse with
my right hand. That's a consequence of
adapting, albeit unwillingly, to the righthanded orientation of the computer world.
However, now that I have a state-of-the-art
mouse I can use with my left hand without

Copying the data on a 2.1 GB Fujitsu drive
to a 2 GB Maxtor drive was a breeze.
The "mirmred" PC ran as fast as it did pdor
to mirroring (boot-up, saves, installs, etc.).
Once set up the mirrored PC ran without a
hitch.
DupliDisk does not require an interrupt, an
copiesthe primary disk to a secondary backup. Depending on the size and speed of the
drive,and the speed of the bus and CPU, this
can take between three and 10 minutes per
gigabyte. 'The DupliDisk setup floppy comes
with a bare bones version of Caldera's DR
agltrgAe ERI,
floppy.
To simulate a drive failure Nathan manually disconnected the power to the primary hard
drive, which caused a problem during bootup
as the drive and the DupliDisk controller were
not recognized. The alarm sounded on the
DupliDisk, so Nathan manually rebooted the
PC and the "mirrored" drive took over. Very
smooth, and as fast as 9 soft reboot.
Backup soushlsrapous
Our failure simulation, however, did raise
some issues. The f irst concern i s t h at
DupliDisk does not have automatic failover,

1,200x1.200 dpi mmlution provides high-quality
output,
inking is heavier than some
olhers, causing a bit of
appealing.
Epson hasalso lone,sported Mac-compatibility, and although the 860 drops the Serial 8
connection, the inclusion of a USB interface

HP's 900 Deskjet printersoffer excegent photographic reproduction in addition to fast text
output. HP's newer printers also sport Mac
compatibility via the USB port, which is a big
plus. One tiny complaint about the higherquality mode, however: to get access to
2,400xl,200dpi printing, users have to go
through a few steps, including turning
PhotoREt lll off, which is a countcr-intuitive
procedure. It would have been nicer to just
have a clearly labeled option on the Brat page
of the print driver. That said, even the 600x600
dpi print quality that can be obtained with
PhotoREt III turned on is outstanding, and
easily rivals 1,200 dpi mode on other printers.

I -year warranty.
Although a few other manufacturers have
introduced inkiet printers that accept digital
camera media directly (rather than having to
access it through a PC), Lexmark was the lirst
out of the gate with this model. Based on the
older 5700 model, the 5770 offers excellent
photographic output as well as crisp and
speedy text printing.
We did have a few quibbles with this unit.
First, the default colour is skewed a bit too
heavil
y towards red, which means skin tones
may be an issue if you don't adjust the colour
ratios in the printer driver. Secondly, the LCD
m enu on thefront of the printer forces the
user to do quite a bit of scrolling end button

Note: Z52 will not be in stores unhl June.
The Z series was a reinvention of Lexmark's
consumer inkiet line, bringing technology
from the higher end down to users at the
budget end. The Z5I was at the highest end of
that line... until now. Maintaining the same
basic form factor as the Z5 I, the Z52 raises the
resolution bar to 2,400xi,200 dpi.
Linlike the HP models that use this resolution, the Z52 can use it on any grade of paper,
and with a single driver selection. Speed-wise,
the I52 is capable of up to l5 ppm of draftquality black text. If that wasn't enough, it

Web-based browser debuts
SAN FRANCISCO CrowdBurst Corp. (httg //www crowdburst,corn) has unveiled a Iree
Web-based browsing service that allows users viewing the same page to chat. leave
notes and browse the Web together.
A new window appears when the visitor clicks a link on the CrowdBurst home page
or at a Web site on the CrowdBurst network, according to CrowdBurst marketing
director Nathan Tyler. "Inside that window you can communicate with people who are
viewing the same page," he said. For Web sites, CrowdBurst opens a new window in
which they can interact with their customers."
Tyler says Ihe time was npe for s browser like Crowdgurst, which he claims is easier to use than other browsers and does not have to be downloaded. "We are Webbased, whereas many of the other services in this area are client-based and require a
large download and installation process. CrowdBurst appears immediately to the end
users. It makes it a lot easier for people to use our service."
CrowdBurst, founded in August 1999 by tour Nelscape veterans and a graduate of
Massachusetts institute ol Technology (MIT), released a preview version of ihe browser service in late April. It also announced a partnership with CbffeeCup Software,
which will bundle the service in its kTML tool, allowing for the easy integration of
CrowdBurst inlO Web sites. Other Crowdgurst partners include beaulyQ.corn.
CrowdBurst says its users get instant access to chat rooms, can leave messages
on busetin boards, establish special interest groups, and browse the Web in groups.
"On lhe Web today. you can be in the middle of what is the equivalent of Times
Square and there isn'I a single person around. There's no one to talk to, no one to
give you help," says CrowdBurst president Cary David. "Our goal is to bridge the gap
between the static content of the Web and the people surfing the Web. With
CrowdBurst. people burst oul of the page, adding immediate interaclivity and enloy.
ment to the Web surfing experience."
To run CrowdBurst software, users need a system running Windows 95 or 98, and a
mmimum oi Internet Explorer 4.01 or Netscape Nauigatcr 4.0.

The magnesium alloy chassis on this unit is
eye-catching. There are two USB ports. Two
different bags were included, one typical notebook bag and another insert, or protector.
This model was shipped to us with only 64
MB RAM, and therefore didn't do as welt on
the benchmarking. It is possible to upgrade
system RAM to a maximum of 256 MB. The
Global Service Member warranty is designed

Our evaluation unit really kicked butt in the
benchmarking. The overall Sysmark98 score
of 232 was the highest of the units we test-
earing advice
Playing with the latest hardware is the hest part
of a technology reviewer'
s lob. The hardest
part is giving advice about a specitic brand to
buy. Every person will have his or her own idea
of the best notebook, which is how it should
be.
Some observations: the Ultinet entry
returned the best benchmark scores. The TTX
had the largest screen, while the IBM was the
easiest to carry. Asus had the lowest price. N EC
and Compaq had exceUent large-company
warranties. The Apple was the easiest to set up.
