From Wokket: Apparently there's a second moon in a U-shaped orbit around the earth - and there may be more. How to kill 70,000 phones with just one spanner.. bizarre alcohol laws from the USA.
IBM have made the world's fastest computer.. again.
Digit-Life have a roundup of Apollo Pro 266 motherboards. I checked out a couple of boards based on that Socket370 DDR chipset right here a few weeks ago. Fairly unexciting performance, sadly.
TheRegister seems to be down for me at the moment, but apparently on this page they say Intel are releasing their 2GHz P4 on Aug 27.
From Ashley: Majestic is different, a conspiracy-theory game that is dynamically tailored to each player. It is played through the web, by phone, fax and email. Sounds like paranoia city to me.
Mr Bill points out these sexy black IBM TFT widescreen monitors.. mmm, very droolworthy.
If you're into distributing pirate software and movies via Optus@Home your days may be numbered, according to this article on Whirlpool, thanks Daniel.
HWExtreme have a Gadget Showcase.. lots of interesting goodies there.
If your girlfriend says she's feeling horny, let's hope this isn't what she meant, thanks DarkP3.
Klif-e sent in this great flash anim of WindowsRG.. it's an interactive piss-take of Windows. Lots of little in jokes and things to play with. :)
NVIDIA have released 12.41 Detonator drivers for their range of video chipsets. Choose your O/S from the menu at left on that page.
LeperMessiah noticed this Intel CPU Stepping Codes chart.
For a trip down OCAU memory lane, check out oldnews.shtml, which is what we had before we started using NewsPro to manage the news on this site. It's a big file (250kb of text) but there is some funny stuff buried in there from way back in 1999 when the site first started and into early 2000.
Reviews::
2CoolPC Plus and Turbo system coolers on OCrCafe, our reviews here and here.
