Jeff sees dead people.. they're everywhere.. and they like Microsoft..

Baker has taken the "OCAU Phone Logo" concept a step further with different designs in the forums.

Dan has taken a look at rounded IDE cables and he's not too keen on them. Our shorter review of a similar product is here and of course, the cheapy option (which Dan was kind enough to link to) is always here too.

VooDoo won the tshirt from the first quick joke thread. I've made another one here.. doesn't seem in any danger of being won yet. :)

SourceMagazine have an article about Linux in Education.

Komson over at Xoverclocker pushed a Tbird 1.33 to 1.81GHz.. impressive benchies, but hardly practical.. the iced-over socket is a dead giveaway. :)

There's a new BETA IDE driver for VIA chipsets.. for those who like living on the edge.. and who back up their data regularly.

The ArsMasters compared Windows XP Home and Professional versions. Our own look at the Professional version is here.

Apparently the ACC has denied Telstra's proposed line rental increase. Apparently Telstra has cheaper options but doesn't tell you about them.. reminds me of the HHGTTG episode one - they were stuck in a disused toilet with a sign on the door saying "Beware of the Leopard".. ever thought of going into advertising?
