Maybe I'm slow off the mark not having been here for a while but I stumbled across this on download.com whilst trying to get an ssh program.

download.com now require you to register to download from their site. The registration is free, but does ask for rather a lot of personnal details.

Thankfully my trusted old sdsd@sdsd.com was not already registered ...

Micron is still in talks with Hynix (No.3), the indebted Korean chipmaker. Hynix says it hopes for an agreement by the end of January.

If Micron assumes management control, then in just a couple of months, it will have leapfrogged Samsung, to become the world's most important DRAM maker.
