6 more SirCam virus messages today. Update your virus software - yes, you! Got some in Spanish too, which was a refreshing change. There's a guide here to removing it from your system if you have it.

It's cooler comparison time over at Adrian's Rojak Pot, with 10 coolers on a P3.

3DReality have a mind-wobbling 42-way video card roundup posted. Better get the comfy chair and a couple of Viking bars for that one.. thanks Nigel.

Leo had some trouble with KingMax 256MB PC150 modules (reviewed here) and Abit's KT7A motherboard. He says In summary if using the Kingmax 256MB PC150 modules on a KT7A motherboard set the DRAM memory timing to fast or turbo and even use CAS 2 to fix windows registry errors. MD strength should be Hi.

Skeptilence notes that Australia is officially the second-best place to live in the world. I guess nobody told them about Canberra.. :)

Leon sent in more info in the FBI losing laptops and weapons saga..

Here's a sexy case, thanks Hoopstar - or you could go the whole hog with this quad 900mhz xeon box on eBay, ta alchemy. Both dwarfed by Big Daddy Kahuna of course. :)

Still not happy? Consider some shiny colourful stuff for your case, then.. or some glowy stringy stuff, even.

There's an article about high-performance DDR and how to keep it happy on LostCircuits.

Memphis has a pretty cool machine - but check out this awesome lan box!

Funny pic on HardOCP, putting orbs to good use.. thanks LoneWolf.
