Sony have announced an intermediate console between their PS2 and the much-anticipated PS3. The PSX will attempt to go "far beyond its gaming roots".

You know how phone numbers in (American) movies always have the area code 555? Wondered why? Because this and this happens when they don't.

Skymaster says Geeksalad, a cartoon by a Canberran, will appeal to OCAU readers and Linux fans. I wasn't rolling on the floor, but I did keep on clicking next.. :)

IPKonfig went to the Chaintech Reloaded promotional event.

Guru3D want to tell us all about Powerline Networking.. it's been a rumour for a long time, is it ready for prime-time yet?

Comit says that Acrobat Reader 6 is now out, for your portable documenting pleasure.

This Toaster PC is pretty cool, thanks ledz.

Fancy yourself a mini-Schumacher? Live in South Australia? Hoopstar is organising a Go-Kart Championship in the forums.

Win yourself a Soltek KT400A motherboard over on VIA-Arena, by taking a photo of your work area. I keep getting requests to put some photos of the AggCave up on OCAU, but I can't find an angle that fully captures the mind-scrambling chaos in here. :)

Things gone disastrously wrong for your motherboard? Sometimes a hot flash is the only way to recover it.

Want to start your own website? Why not start a hardware website, the scene could do with a few more of those. :) Addaboy have a guide to making your own site. Advice from a jaded old webmaster: there's nothing so expensive as what you get for free.

Digit-Life have rounded up some barebone mini-PC's from Asus, Iwill, Shuttle and Soltek.

Someone calling himself epia from Austria has managed to get a fanless heatpipe cooler on his EPIA motherboard, making a small PC even quieter.

Darkness spotted mobile phones that can control cars.. little cars, not like in James Bond, but it's still pretty cool. You can have your Snake, I'm doing some hot laps. :)

NordicHardware rounded up some Intel i845PE motherboards, for P4s and DDR memory. Not the latest and greatest chipset, but still going strong.

eDust noticed this multi-format DVD burner from Pioneer, giving the Sony unit a competitor at last. He also says that Phoenix have a BIOS that can completely disable your PC if it's stolen.
