o Apple Profit Surges on Strong Sales
of iPods, Macs
Cupertino, Calif. -- Buoyed by strong sales of its Macintosh
computers and iPod digital music players, Apple on Wednesday
reported earnings that far exceeded Wall Street expectations. For
the quarter, the company posted a net profit of $106 million, up
from a profit of $44 million in the same period a year ago. Revenue
was $2.35 billion, an increase of 37%. The company's per share
profit of $0.27 topped consensus analyst estimates of $0.18,
according to Thomson First Call. Apple shipped 836,000 Macintosh
units and just over 2 million iPods during the quarter -- increases
of 6% and 500%, respectively, from the same period in 2003. "We are
thrilled to report our highest fourth quarter revenue in nine
years," said Steve Jobs, Apple's CEO.

o EU Takes
Greece to Court over Ban on Computer Games
Brussels -- The European Commission (EC) announced on Thursday
that it plans to take Greece to the European Court of Justice to
reverse the country's ban on PC games. The EC said that it had
decided to refer Greece to the court over its ban on the
"installation and operation of electrical, electromechanical and
electronic games, including computer games, in all public and
private places," including premises providing Internet services,
such as cyber cafes. The Commission also said that Greece's decision
to outlaw video games to stop online gambling essentially violates
the EU treaty on the free movement of goods and services.
Furthermore, the EC said that it plans to take Greece to task for
not having notified the EU of the law when it was in its draft
stage, which is an infringement of Directive 98/34/EC.

o Microsoft's
Anticipated Xbox Game "Halo 2" Leaked Onto Internet
London -- Microsoft is investigating how a copy of its
highly-anticipated Xbox game "Halo 2" was leaked onto newsgroups and
"warez" piracy sites, the BBC Online reported on Thursday. The
pirated copy is in the French language and compatible with the PAL
European television standard, but is not enabled for online play.
"We consider downloading this code or making it available for others
to download as theft," and are "aggressively pursuing the source of
this illegal act," Microsoft said in a statement. The company
doesn't expect the leak to affect sales of the title, which will
ship to retailers on Nov. 9. The original "Halo" title, developed by
Bungie Studios, has to date sold over 4 million units.

o Google
Releases Desktop Search Tool
Mountain View, Calif. -- Search engine giant Google on Thursday
introduced a new program that allows anyone to search the contents
of their PC for email, documents chat logs and Web pages visited
through a Web browser. Google's first-to-market release of desktop
search software beats out rivals including Yahoo, AOL and Microsoft,
which has said such PC search capabilities will be included in its
next Windows operating system, codenamed Longhorn. When downloaded
by a user, the free Google Desktop Search application will scan and
index the entire hard drive of a PC, enabling users to search their
own computers. The software will also provide relevant desktop
search results alongside Web results when searching the Internet on
Google.

o Dell Aims at
$249 iPod Mini With New $199, 5GB MP3 Player
New York -- PC maker Dell on Thursday introduced its redesigned DJ
digital music player line, including a 5GB model that is similar in
size to Apple's $249 iPod mini but is priced at $199. The company
also released a $249, 20GB model. "Our competitors' prices provide
us considerable room to pass on huge savings to our customers," said
Dell senior vice president John Hamlin. "Our Dell DJ provides more
battery life and more storage space at 20 percent less than the
price of the No. 1 seller." Both devices support MP3 and Windows
Media Audio formats, in addition to Microsoft's "Janus" digital
rights management technology.

o Game
Publisher Bam Entertainment Delisted from Nasdaq
San Jose, Calif. -- Struggling video game publisher Bam
Entertainment announced on Thursday that its shares will be delisted
from the Nasdaq SmallCap Market, effective on Friday. The ruling
follows the company's failure to file its annual report on time, and
provide evidence of shareholders' equity of at least $2.5 million.
San Jose, Calif.-based Bam has created titles based on licenses of
Cartoon Network properties including "The Powerpuff Girls" and
"Dexter's Laboratory," as well as games such as "Ballistic: Ecks vs.
Sever," "Reign of Fire" and "State of Emergency." Bam said that,
following its delisting from the SmallCap market, it expects its
common stock will continue to be quoted on the Pink Sheets service.
