Arg! Went to turn my Nikon CP990 digicam on a couple of days ago and the whole power switch assembly fell apart. Took it to Maxwells (Nikon dealer) today and they said 10-day turnaround to fix it.. but they're doing it under warranty even tho it expired a couple of weeks ago, so I can't complain too much. Still.. will have to go back to the Kodak DC210 Plus Zoom for a couple of weeks.. noooooo......

Nice watercooling project story on OC.com, thanks Epoch.

Spotted in the aus.motorcycles forum - Victoria has some new plain-clothes motorcycle cops..

There is some cool lego stuff on this page, I suspect borrowed from HardOCP by Mike. The big crawler crane is very very cool.

Over in the HardForums there's a car case.. has to be seen to be believed. :)

Lauhead noticed this clear case on FiringSquad..

Neato little case here in the PCDB. Not sure what it is, very cute tho.

SystemLogic have an article comparing Mandrake Linux and Windows XP from an aesthetic perspective. Bit of an odd premise for an article, but it's an interesting read and funny in places. If you want a do-it-yourself OCAU version, read our Mandrake 7 and WinXP articles which go into slightly more detail.

Ooh, hackers in Parliament, the Premier is very grumpy about it, all very exciting. I hope this doesn't lead to another round of unenforceable Internet laws.

A bunch of interesting new stuff on Akiba PC, thanks Kyocera.. use the magic fish if you want the details.

IPKonfig have an article on modding the Blue Orb to fit a larger fan. Fairly dodgy graph in that article. Once you've done that, you could lap it, too.

ClubOC decided to check out exactly what makes an AMD approved PSU.. or at least, AMD-capable.

There's another Kevin Smith film on the way - this time it's Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back.. heh, can't wait for that one, thanks Pax.

Dan's added 8 more coolers to his comparo..

NASA have a new robot that uses Linux and a P3 and assists astronauts.. I guess the last thing you want while spacewalking is a BSOD, thanks Barry.
