The PCDB creeps past #1600.. I think Samson's golden orb-cooled Mac was the magic number. Rex, Sabien and thenemesis all have some pretty cool boxes. Interesting paintwork on MaGR's minitower and BinaryZero has a cool wooden case kinda reminiscent of MWP's. Not sure what to make of the bottom picture + caption in PingGU's entry, tho. :)

Digit-Life have posted their May 2001 storage digest and 3D digest.

Seen this before but it's cool - sodaplay - click on "Soda Constructor" if you've got a lot of spare time.

OCMods have a guide to installing an LCD display, controlled via your parallel port.

Check out this amazing animation called "Lots of Robots".. probably too huge for dialup peeps :( but quite spectacular. You'll need Quicktime..

The CEO of Telstra notes that We have got a really high-quality underutilised HFC (hybrid fibre coaxial) network that is clearly going to participate in the delivery of digital television, but offers us all sorts of other high band with opportunities for cable modems. leperMessiah wonders (in slightly more colourful language) why Telstra have limited their broadband customers to 3GB/month, if it's underutilised..

Here's a list of 10 reasons to upgrade..

More info on the latest Dets, from Steven: I just downloaded and installed the latest DD from nvidia's website. After putting them on games such as Midtown Madness and NFS went stupid and objects like wheels were missing from cars.. most textures in the games were missing too. And for some unknown reason.. CoolBits is gone, And I can't get it back. The box in NvMax says it's there... but it's not... grrr. .. and from Ray: This is the first paragraph from the 12.41 driver download page. I just cut and pasted it. No mention of TNT at all. "TNT2, Vanta, GeForce256, GeForce2*, GeForce3, Quadro, and Quadro2 family of graphic processors are supported through NVIDIA's Industry Standard Unified Driver Architecture (UDA)." The plot thickens.
