Kyle @ HardOCP has posted his full Computex Coverage. PCStats have their coverage posted too. VooDoo's back in the country now so expect a comparable roundup here soon. Thanks again to Achieva Technology and Computer Alliance for helping get him there and (eventually!) back.

UnderTheInfluence says: Running both Speedfan and Asus Pc Probe 2.12.02 simultaneously on my P3V4X causes random voltage drops in the Voltage Monitor of PC Probe. Of course, this gets rather annoying at times. However I still find Speedfan an incredibly useful piece of software, just have to work out how to configure it properly.

Yaleman pointed out this 4-port NIC, just the thing for LAN parties. :)

Dicey says that Microsoft has worms.. oh dear.

MikhailTech are rounding cables again.. compare our method here.

We now have a Genome@Home team, if you're after something to do with your spare CPU cycles. Thanks to chestRcopRpot for setting it up. I'll be moving all the distributed computing teams onto their own "Team OCAU" page at some point with info on what they are and how to join them - we have SETI@HOME, RC5 and Folding@Home teams too.

Nice solid-state hard drve info from Sacrifice..

The Oz telecomms drama continues to unfold - cd_crazy sends word that GoConnect are moving away from free services now. Hellfire notes that DingoBlue are looking at ADSL services soon. Someone sent me an email saying that DB have been appointed by the Administrators of One.Tel to provide immediate internet access to One.Net customers.. but I seem to have lost that email now. There's another site with info & action to take about Telstra's 3GB cap. Telstra have made it pretty clear that they are not going to reconsider the cap so I wonder how much effect these petitions etc are going to have.
