NeoSeeker have an interview with David Kirk from nVidia, as well as a GeForce 6800 technical article.

Graham sent in a story supporting the much-debated claims that petrol pumps and mobile phones are a bad mix.

ATI had a chat about their Trilinear Filtering technology and Bjorn3D have a transcript. Tech-Report have more info on this technology which is at the heart of the latest "is it an optimisation or is it cheating" debate.

DesignTechnica have some info about LCD Monitors. Unfortunately, the contradiction of today’s Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) technology is that bigger often means smaller. And as a result, consumers who think a bigger screen will be easier on their eyes are often disappointed in their purchase. On a similar note, PCReview have a article on LCD vs CRT monitors.

Microsoft Australia have confirmed no XP SP2 for pirates, thanks Firestorm.

I mentioned the gargantuan Zalman silent case recently - SilentPCReview looked at a pre-built PC based on that case.

fr33z3 noticed you can get a 45-day free trial of Microsoft Virtual PC from their website. Virtual PC is a powerful software virtualization solution that allows you to run multiple PC-based operating systems simultaneously on one workstation, providing a safety net to maintain compatibility with legacy applications while you migrate to a new operating system. Sounds a bit like VMWare.

TheModFathers look at RAID drive cooling using waterblocks.

Murray spotted some hard drive tech info from Seagate, as well as info on VIA's upcoming CPU core.

Here's an interesting Memory Glasses project from FREF. Still seems to be a fair way off, though.

AusGamers have the Battlefield:Vietnam v1.01 patch available, as well as a UT2004 Community Bonus Pack.
