Some news bites from MCFLY5: The next version of DirectX 9 might be called 9.0c. PCMark 2004 gets a patch released which takes it upto version 110. ATI's market share is now bigger than nVidias.
RnR spotted his scary invention of the week, being a device to suspend your laptop on a car's steering wheel. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DRIVE A VEHICLE WITH MOUNT ATTACHED TO STEERING WHEEL. DEATH or INJURY TO YOURSELF AND OTHERS WOULD OCCUR. No kidding!

Space stuff: Apparently the Mars rovers are all better now.. or maybe not. Hubble spotted some carbon and oxygen streaming off a planet near another star. Speaking of which, Hubble might not be abandoned after all. NASA released detailed photos of rocks that reflect Martian history, thanks PodgeSSS. Odyssey has been orbiting Mars for a year now, thanks Draffa.
