IBM Announces World's Smallest Working Silicon Transistor
Have you ever noticed how our computers, mobile phones and other appliances seem to be getting progressively smaller? Advances in technology mean that we can now rely on more compact, efficient tools to get our day-to-day jobs done.
Scientists at IBM recently announced that they have produced the world’s smallest working silicon transistor. The transistor is only 6 nanometers long, making it 10 times smaller than transistors currently being produced. A nanometer is one billionth of a metre!
Dr Randy Isaac, vice president of science and technology at IBM Research explained the significance of this new development; “The ability to build working transistors at these dimensions could allow us to put 100 times more transistors into a computer chip than is currently possible.” Imagine the power and speed of a computer with this number of transistors compared to the one you are using now!
As well as improving the performance and speed of chips, this new development will lower the manufacturing cost and power consumption of transistors, which is good news for both us and the environment.

How Do I?
How do I find Unpresented Payments and Deposits?
To get a print out of the unpresented payments and deposits in SAS2000 (release 636):
 |
Go to REPORTS>BANKING>BANK RECONCILIATION
|
|
For Date Range select ALL DATES and set the Reconciled field to NO. This will pick up all Payment and Deposit transactions in SAS2000 that have not been marked off on the GENERAL LEDGER>BANK RECONCILIATION form.
|
|
Unreconciled transactions from a certain period can be reported on by setting the date range to just the period of time you are interested in.
|
Also under REPORTS>BANKING is a BANK PAYMENTS report and a BANK DEPOSITS report. These reports can also be run to report only on the transactions that are unreconciled in SAS2000 by setting the Reconciled option on the report to NO.
|
The Bank Payments report lists only transactions that are for payments
|
|
The Bank Deposits report lists only transactions that are for deposits
|
|
The Bank Reconciliation report lists both Payment and Deposit transactions

Website of the Week
http://www.isubscribe.com.au
Stuck for gift ideas this Christmas? A magazine subscription could be the perfect solution!
The isubscribe website provides magazine subscriptions online and features over 750 magazine titles to choose from. You can search for magazines either by title or by category.
The benefit of subscribing online is that your request is received instantaneously; there is no need to wait for postal delivery. This means that your subscription can be processed much faster, and you receive your first magazine earlier! (Magazines are sent via regular mail.)
Another benefit of using the site is the opportunity to win prizes such as DVD players and cars when you subscribe to particular magazines. If you also choose to subscribe to the free isubscribe newsletter you will receive notifications of offers of the month, giveaways and competitions.
The isubscribe Gift Centre is the place to purchase your gift subscription. Once you have ordered your subscription you can email an isubscribe icard to the recipient letting them know that a great gift is coming their way! These cards can also be printed in the event that your gift recipient does not have access to email.
Magazine subscriptions make great gifts as they continue to give throughout the year. And, as they say on the website, it is great to be able to look forward to something other than bills in your letterbox!
