Memory Markets
All the devices we rely on day to day, from mobile phones to televisions, all need memory. The international commodity trading in memory chips has never been more cut-throat. Price fixing, lawsuits and dodgy dealings are all par for the course. Simon talks to David Manners of Electronics Weekly and Click On鈥檚 resident technology expert Rupert Goodwins about just how this market works and how in the struggle for supremacy colossal sums are being spent despite all the manufacturers making a loss.
Knife space
Knife crime and gang violence are never far from the headlines these days. Nick Balneaves visits a Strathclyde Police operation which is using social networking sites to bring the thugs to justice.
