Congrats to Queenslander Chris Vermeulen who is now the World Supersport Champion.. thanks to Aaron for reminding me.
Beyond3D checked out the ATI Radeon 9100 IGP, which is one of ATI's attempts at a P4 motherboard chipset. Meanwhile, Hexus reviewed the Athlon 64 3200+ on VIA K8T800 and nForce3 150 in retail form. Will one of these combinations be in your next PC?
Intel are apparently cutting prices, thanks VoiD.
IBM have been thinking about how to make laptop hard drives less likely to die when the laptop is dropped, and they've come up with this.

Yes, but it doesn't stop your screen from getting that big black spiderweb effect.
Tesla coils are pretty cool - here's a an Australian guy taking his hobby very seriously, thanks Laurens.
