I haven't read this in detail yet but a few people including my Dad sent it in - Robert X. Cringely has written an article about internet security and Microsoft.. looks like an interesting one.

G3D have a 60mm fan comparison article posted.

Chris notes that there's a new NVClock out - this is a program to overclock your NVIDIA-based card under Linux, of course..

The Terapin Mine is a new handheld device with 10GB of storage on board, thanks Tim.

Apparently ATI have their own motherboard-chipset-with-inbuilt-graphics on the way, similar to NVIDIA's nForce. They're calling it A3 and it contains a cutdown Radeon2 core, thanks Morjo.

Very interesting article about measuring CPU temperatures accurately over on SwiftNets site, thanks Auenf.

Hmm, interesting idea from IBM who are building server farms around the world in anticpation of a future "compting power" grid like an electricity grid, with people buying CPU grunt as they need it.

StratosFear put up some info about this Vcool program in the forums. Apparently it's like CPUIdle but better. Might be worth a shot..
