007 - 05 : Man lebt nur zweimal

Man lebt nur zweimal ist der fünfte Film der offiziellen James-Bond-Reihe von Albert R. Broccoli und Harry Saltzman. Unter Fans gilt dieser Film als eher schwach, da dem Film der Charme von Goldfinger und die spannende Agentengeschichte von Liebesgrüße aus Moskau fehlt. Dieser Bond-Film ist der erste, der zu einem großen Teil vom Originalroman von Ian Fleming abweicht. Das von Roald Dahl geschriebene Drehbuch enthält aber dennoch wichtige Elemente des Romans.

Ein mysteriöses Raumfahrzeug entführt und stiehlt bemannte Raumkapseln sowohl der USA als auch der Sowjetunion. Beide Staaten glauben, die jeweils andere Supermacht sei dafür verantwortlich; ein Atomkrieg steht unmittelbar bevor. Die britische Regierung glaubt jedoch, dass das Raumfahrzeug in Japan gelandet ist. James Bond, der in Hongkong seinen Tod vortäuscht (daher der Filmtitel), wird nach Japan geschickt, um diesem Verdacht nachzugehen. Er wird dabei von Tiger Tanaka, dem Chef des japanischen Geheimdienstes unterstützt. Zusammen finden sie den wahren Verantwortlichen, Ernst Stavro Blofeld und seine Verbrecherorganisation SPECTRE. Es stellt sich heraus, dass die Volksrepublik China den Plan finanziell unterstützt. Die beiden Supermächte sollen sich gegenseitig auslöschen; China und SPECTRE hoffen, danach die Weltherrschaft an sich reißen zu können. Bond gelingt es, den geheimen Raumhafen zu finden, der in einem erloschenen Vulkan versteckt ist. Bevor Bond jedoch die Ausführung des letzten Teils des Plans stoppen kann, wird er gefasst und zu Blofeld gebracht. In der Zwischenzeit versuchen Tanaka und seine Ninja-Kämpfer in den Vulkan einzudringen. Sie werden jedoch entdeckt und in eine tödliche Schlacht verwickelt. Jede Hoffnung scheint verloren, doch Bond kann sich befreien und in den Kontrollraum eindringen. Er zerstört das SPECTRE-Raumfahrzeug, kurz bevor es ein weiteres US-Raumschiff kapern will. Obwohl Blofeld die Flucht gelingt, wird der Krieg in letzter Sekunde abgewendet.

007 - 04 : Feuerball

007 - 04 : Feuerball
Feuerball ist der vierte Teil der von Eon Productions Ltd. produzierten James-Bond-Reihe. Der Film erhielt als einziger James-Bond-Film überhaupt einen Oscar für die besten Spezialeffekte.

Aufgrund der auf mehrere Urheber verteilten Rechte am Roman erschien 1983 das Remake Sag niemals nie in den Kinos.

Die Filmhandlung lehnt sich stark an die Romanvorlage an. Die Verbrecherorganisation SPECTRE hat ein NATO-Flugzeug vom Typ Avro Vulcan mit zwei Atombomben an Bord entführt und droht, eine Großstadt mit Millionen von Menschen zu vernichten, falls nicht ein hohes Lösegeld bezahlt wird. Während die Welt wegen der Gefahr eines Atomkriegs den Atem anhält, folgt Bond in einem Wettlauf gegen die Zeit einer Spur, die ihn nach Nassau auf den Bahamas führt. Dort trifft er auf den hochrangigen SPECTRE-Agenten Emilio Largo und die atemberaubende Domino Derval. Mit ihr hat Bond (selbstverständlich) eine Romanze. Außerdem findet er sich im Bett mit der Gehilfin des Ganoven, Fiona Volpe (Luciana Paluzzi) wieder. Er entkommt einigen Handlangern Largos, die ihn zu entführen versuchten. Die Konfrontation entlädt sich in einer gigantischen Unterwasserschlacht, wo Bond und seine Verbündeten versuchen, die Bomben zu entschärfen und die drohende Katastrophe abzuwenden.

Data-Recovery: What You Need

By: Noel Matthew

Data recovery is something we hope that we will never need. Whether you simply make the mistake of deleting important software or you lose it all in a computer crash, that valuable asset of information may seem like it is lost forever. But, if you have complete and quality data-recovery software on your computer or through your system, you can be confident that it has a backup and it is there even though these things will happen to you. This can be so important when it comes to safeguarding your business or your personal information.

What people do not realize is that there are a number of ways that things can go wrong on their computers. Whether you are responsible for the computers of a large corporation, a small business or even just your own personal computer, having a way to restore information when things go wrong is quite important. Here are some things that could happen to you, well, anytime, even right now. Your computer could be running slowly or be loaded with powerful spyware that can destroy files, transmit personal data or, even worse, cause the computer to crash. All of a sudden, it's gone. Or, you could be working along nicely without a care in the world and bam! A power surge, an electric storm or something else electrical happens and it's all gone.

There are many more ways in which you can lose all of the personal data that is stored on your computer. You don't even have to have the programs running to lose it. Nevertheless, many people mistakenly believe this will not happen to them and therefore do not do anything to prevent this total loss. Data recovery is necessary for this not to happen. The strange thing is, it takes only minutes to install and use and it virtually and it takes care of itself. It is not overly costly either. So, why don't more people use data recovery? They just don't realize its importance. And that is one mistake we don't want to make. Data recovery is a need all computer users have.

Advancement in Computer Technology

By: Saad Shamim

5 years ago we gathered around and marveled at the little specs moving at our commands, doing not much – except moving off course, we called these things games. Today the hardware in computers and other devices has changed significantly; we went from having a "spacious" 1mb hard drive to 250 GB of space. The graphics have also taken a giant leap for our computers, no longer are we confined to little dots but our 256mb graphic cards allow us to explore a virtual world in 3d. The sound has also changed from 4bit to 32 and pretty soon 64bit; we went from beeps to actually words. Finally the speed of our beloved computers has also increased from mere kilobytes to gigabytes of rams. In such a short period of time we went from what we used to call "advanced" technology to today's much superior devices. So if you guys are like I am, there is one question that strikes our mind, what's next? Well I would love to say that we will be able to put on our virtual glasses that will allow us to explore the virtual world as if we were in it, but this is not likely, sorry guys; however, these sorts of glasses are being constructed but its unlikely they will come out any time soon. What we can expect to see is an improvement in our Text-to-speech and vise versa programs after the 64bit sound card is released allowing the computer to understand our voices much clearly, also we should soon be seeing more "dept" in our computer as you may know that the most our computers can run on 32bit resolution, it is expected that Microsoft is like to bring out a 64bit resolution with there next version of windows. Also the speed and graphics are to increase a lot more, already some games look as they are almost real, and soon they will look real. I am not certain exactly what marvel the computer hardware's will hold in the future, but one thing is certain it will be something to forward too, and once again the next generation will be mocking the so called advanced technology we have today.

3 Simple Ways To Save A Bunch Of Money When Buying A New Computer!

By: Kris Bickell

Looking to buy a new computer?

Overwhelmed by all of the options available to you?

Stressed by the high cost of computers today?

For most people, buying a new computer does not have to be as stressful as buying a new car. Nor does it have to be as expensive. If you're like most people, and you have a limited budget for buying a computer, then you need to try to get as much computer for your money as possible.

Here are 3 simple ways anyone can save money when buying a new computer:

1) Shop around for best deal.

Sounds pretty obvious. But many people don't realize they don't need the fastest, most expensive computer with the most "extras". In fact, if you are already using an older computer, even the least expensive new computer will be a big upgrade. If you don't know a lot about computers, you can learn a lot by shopping around. Ask lots of questions, compare prices, compare features, then find the best price. Shop at your local electronics store, and look for the best deals online. You'll be surprised at how much money you can save by shopping around!

2) Install your own "extras"

Many computers you will find in a store have a lot of extra software already installed. While this is convenient, it is not always the best way for you to save money. Also, while many of these extras sound good, you don't always need them. You can often find better deals by shopping around separately for your own software extras (such as a word processor, anti-virus, popup blocker, spyware removal, games, etc). And some of these you can get for free. So before you buy the "fully loaded" computer, ask yourself if you really need all the extras, then shop around to see if you can buy a scaled down computer - and get the extras yourself for much less!

3) Don't buy extended warranty

If you are not a computer "techie", the extended warranties offered by the computer retailers often sound like a good idea. After all, who wants to be bothered paying for service on a computer after you buy it. But keep in mind that most computers come with a warranty, and most computer problems will either happen at the beginning (when you still have the warranty in effect) or much later (when it might be cheaper to buy a new computer). Technology changes very quickly these days. So consider whether or not it's worth the inflated price of the extended warranty. And, if you really feel you need the extended warranty, then ask to purchase it at a lower price. Not all retailers will negotiate on the warranty, but some will. And whether you buy the extended warranty or not, make sure you back up all your files periodically, just in case!

If you have an unlimited budget, consider yourself lucky. And if you do business on the computer, make sure you get what you need, while trying to keep the price down. At any price, buying something that does not fit your needs is not a good deal.

Hope you find these tips helpful, and happy computer shopping!
