The Obama administration was still debating whether to release gruesome images of bin Laden’s corpse, balancing efforts to demonstrate to the world that he was dead against the risk that the images could provoke further anti-U.S. sentiment. But CIA Director Leon Panetta said a photograph would be released. “I don’t think there was any question that ultimately a photograph would be presented to the public,” Panetta said…

May 3, 2011 No Comment
What better way for Seagate to celebrate its $1.375 billion dollar purchase of Samsung’s HDD division than to re-introduce the old firm’s breakthrough ? Seagate took the Samsung’s 1TB platter prototypes and packed them into a real hard drive, bringing the new technology to market for the first time. These new drives will boast an areal-density of 625 gigabits (78.13GB) per square inch, scoring 1TB platters for the outfit’s next generation of hard disks. Unfortunately, Seagate won’t be cramming four of those 1TB plates into a single hard drive as Samsung originally planned, instead opting to debut the technology in a 3TB external drive under their GoFlex brand. No official specs this time around, but when the turkey was on Samsung’s platter, it spun at 5,400 RPM with a 32MB cache and SATA 6Gbps compatibility.
