...option favored by most state attorneys general would require Microsoft to divulge its Windows source code--its most valuable piece of intellectual property--to other tech firms. This would allow Microsoft's rivals to develop their own versions of the world's dominant computer operating system.

The Abilene Project runs at 2.4 gigabits per second...

Newcomer Girl Tech is offering some electronic alternatives. Its Password Journal locks with the sound of the owner's voice. And the Door Pass sticks onto a bedroom door and requests a verbal password each time it detects motion outside. If the voice doesn't match the one stored in memory, it blinks to indicate that an intruder may have entered the room while its owner was out. Each product costs...
