Here is the latest entry in the physical data destruction market:  MediaVise by Phiston Technologies:

The MediaVise™ is a desktop data sanitation solution standing only 25" tall and 12" wide. When a computer hard drive is "fed" into the MediaVise™, its patent-pending crushing plates deliver over 33,000 pounds of force per square inch to the vulnerable platters and read heads of the drive. In less than a minute, the hard drive is crushed, mangled and rendered unreadable and discharged into a debris collection bin. The entire process is "hands off" and meets NSA specifications for Data Destruction.

From ILY:

Share Your Creativity Without Compromising Flexibility

Spartan Fortress is the only standalone DVD duplicator on the market featuring hardware-based copy protection that discourages unauthorized duplication. You do not need a computer and proprietary software to create copy-protected discs so there is no per-copy royalty to pay and no one to call for software licenses. Our exclusive DiscLock¹ Technology embeds copy protection within each target disc making them almost impossible to copy using a computer or another duplicator.

Spartan Fortress is based on #1 selling SATA-based duplication technology fortified with DiscLock¹ Technology. SATA-interface offers superior features such as faster data transfer rate, enhanced error checking, shielded connector to minimize interference and breakage-resistant cables. Spartan Fortress is ideal for independent film-makers, event photographers, video production professionals and other creative artists to distribute digital video contents selectively. The protected discs play normally on DVD players and you control the option to enable playback on a computer. Spartan Fortress helps people to showcase their talents without compromising flexibility. 

• Standalone, no PC required.
• Exclusive DiscLock¹ Technology automatically encrypts copyright protection on duplicated discs
• Dynamic Hard Drive Partitioning automatically adjusts hard drive partitions based on the size of your master disc.

• Dual-Level Security provides separate Startup and Setup passwords for complete restriction and protection against unauthorized users.
• Advanced Diagnosis Mode troubleshoots and sets adjustment for optimal performance.

¹Disclock Technology copy protection is only available on DVD-R video discs.

The interactive whiteboard industry was expected to reach sales of US $1 billion worldwide by 2008; one of every seven classrooms in the world will feature an interactive whiteboard by 2011 according to market research by Futuresource Consulting.

In a nutshell :

An interactive whiteboard (IWB), is a large interactive display that connects to a computer and projector.

A projector projects the computer's desktop onto the board's surface where users control the computer using a pen, finger or other device.

The board basically functions like a large mouse.

The board is typically mounted to a wall or floor stand.

In the education and business presentation markets ,interactive whiteboards are used as replacements for traditional whiteboards or flip charts, or video/media systems such as a DVD player and TV combination.

Advantages for Teachers:

-Save notes and annotations during the class -as an electronic file eg. PDF which can then be emailed to students after the lesson.

-Supplemental instructional materials and lesson plans are now specifically designed for interactive whiteboards eg. Mimic books for shared reading practice / diagramming activities / reinforce learning skills by using on-line interactive websites etc

-Greater student interaction - allow them to use the IWB in front of the class

Advantages of Newline IdeaMax Interactive Whiteboards (over other IWBs):

1.   Durable porcelain surface - will resist scratching/puncture (infrared technology)

2.   No electric stylus required (which can be lost or batteries can die).You can use anything to write on the board : eg. your finger / any type of marker - not just the supplied marker.

3.   Open platform : works with any lesson plan software.
