More CeBIT stuff: Xbit, here and here on HWZ, and here on TrustedReviews.
From Paul: Australian training course teaches ethical hacking. Windows is more secure than Linux out of the box. New Zealand to 'legalise CD piracy' - the Act could be amended as early as the middle of the year. It would still make duplicating a CD for a third party, or copying a disc you don't own an illegal act.
von Stalhein noticed this nano-lightning for cooling article on NewScientist. More info here, thanks Kernal32.
From Dink: Game classifications are being reviewed. However there is still not going to be a R or X rating for games, because everyone knows that people stop playing games as soon as they turn 18.
Plextor have announced a 12X SATA DVD Burner, thanks enigma.
James sent word that the XSI EXP for Half-Life 2 is available for download. Everything you need to create Half-Life 2 characters, models, and environment elements is here.
From petal666: Seems all the Muvo2 and iPod minis are putting pressure on supplies of the 4Gb microdrives so the iPod mini release worldwide will possibly be delayed till July. Info here and here.
ZGeek fitted a PC with an airbag and filmed it blowing itself to bits.

Piracy is bad, but apparently not quite bad enough to get you extradited to face charges in the USA, thanks Dennis.
Murray noticed dual-layer recordable DVD media is on the way, with drives from Sony. 8.4GB per disk!
For timewasters: Sabretooth noticed that Happy Tree Friends have posted their take on the penguin game, while daveha sent in Nun Gunners which is pretty cool. Those on broadband might want to view a video of a gibbon teasing tiger cubs, thanks Neevo. Too painful for me to watch on dialup.
