InsaneHardware, one of our hosted sites, has put up a buncha pics from Computex2001 in Taiwan. I'm still looking for the one that doesn't have an Intel logo in it somewhere - talk about guerilla marketing, this is more like carpet-bomb-marketing. Still, with SMP Athlon articles popping up all over the web today I guess they're in a bit of a panic. Speaking of which, I'm beginning to suspect our roving reporter is slumped in a gutter outside a bar somewhere in Taipei..

AusPCMarket have some computex pics too, focussing on cooling gear, thanks Denis.

DrR0M mentioned these two images ( here and here - ~120kb each) in IRC. They're of the Lotus Elise which is a nice enough car but hardly breaking news - however what fascinated me about those images is that they're not photographs, they're rendered. Wow.

OCMelbourne, another aussie site, have a guide to Editing the Win2K Bootmenu..

DansData, yet another aussie site, have added 3 more coolers to their roundup.

Andrew sent in this fanless case - more interesting than it sounds. It uses a vapour phase-change system, piping gaseous refrigerant around through thin tubing, and using the side of the case as a heat exchanger.. hmm.

AMD SMP is here, on shelves, down under - according to this article, thanks Scott. Unafraid to stick it to arch rival Intel, Robinson joked; "We will not only kick their backside, but we will inflict more pain by kicking them where it hurts the most - in the front-side bus". Oh dear, geek humour. :)
