Lanacom was a software firm based in Toronto, founded by ex-Delrina executive Tony Davis.
 It focused on "push" content software for the Internet.
 In early 1997 the firm released a product called "Headliner", a program which automatically collated and delivered content derived from Internet sources.
 It offered several different types of interfaces for the end-user: Ticker (news ticker), NewsTitle (just the news titles) and ScreenSaver.
GPS Tuner is the name of a software company based in Budapest, Hungary, and of a software product they make.
 The software is a tool intended for off-road navigation based on the Global Positioning System (GPS), where it is used to determine position while cycling, hiking, geocaching, boating, flying, driving, and many other outdoor sporting activities.
 It can be used by those with a GPS receiver alone, or in a smartphone, Pocket PC, or iPhone.
 Recently, the firm released a new version of its navigation software dedicated to electric bicycles named eBike Navigation.
 This new version includes a variety of battery management features like display for battery capacity, range, gear, power and battery consumption.
 EBike Navigation also offers assistance recommendations for optimizing battery capacity along with a real rage calculation based on terrain elevation and other variable conditions.
 In mid-2010, the firm released an iPhone app version of the software that included technology allowing off-road turn-by-turn navigation.
The Firm was an American hip hop supergroup that formed in New York City in 1996.
 It was created by rapper Nas, his manager Steve Stoute, producer Dr. Dre and production team the Trackmasters.
 The group was composed of East Coast-based rappers Nas, Foxy Brown, AZ and also Nature, who served as a replacement for Cormega after he was ousted from the group.
The Firm is an album by American pianist Dave Grusin released in 1993, recorded for the GRP label.
 This album is a soundtrack to the Motion Picture "The Firm" directed by Sidney Pollack.
 It reached No. 131 on "Billboard"'s Contemporary Jazz chart.
 This soundtrack was a 1993 Academy Award nominee for Best Original Score.
The Firm is the first studio album by the British rock band The Firm, released by Atlantic Records on 11 February 1985.
 Tracks ranged from the epic "Midnight Moonlight" based on a previously unreleased song by Led Zeppelin called "Swan Song", first tinkered with during the "Physical Graffiti" sessions, to the commercially successful "Radioactive".
 "Closer" employs a horn section to subtle effect.
 It also includes the Righteous Brothers' hit "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'" with the fretless bass sound of Tony Franklin.
Mean Business is the second and final studio album by The Firm, released by Atlantic Records on 3 February 1986.
 Repeating the same bluesy formula as on the first album, "The Firm" (1985), "Mean Business" did not achieve the same commercial success.

"Radioactive" is a song by English rock band The Firm.
 It was the first single released from their eponymous début album "The Firm", where it was the fifth track.
 It was written by Paul Rodgers.
"Firm Biz" is the first single by the Hip hop supergroup The Firm from their singular collaborative LP "The Album".
 The song was produced by L.E.S, who based the song's track on a sample of Teena Marie's 1981 hit "Square Biz".
 "Firm Biz" also features a chorus performed by former En Vogue singer Dawn Robinson, reworked from the "Square Biz" chorus.
 AZ raps the first verse of the song, Nas the second, and Foxy Brown the third and final verse.
 The song never reached any US chart positions, but was a UK Top 20 hit in 1997.
 A remix of the song was released, featuring a verse from Half-A-Mill and a chorus by Mary J. Blige.
 The word "feds" is censored in the explicit version, in verse 2, performed by Nas, when he says "Never that though Black .4-4's for feds".
