Interesting tidbit over on AcesHardware - this forum post is a translation of a message on a Taiwanese hardware site. They claim firstly that they have a software-only hack for turning an SBLive! into an SB Audigy - I admit I'm a little dubious about this. The drivers may work and you may be able to use some of the features of the Audigy drivers on an SBLive! but it was my understanding that the hardware is quite different between the two cards. This would be a much bigger deal than the Promise Hack if turns out to be true. Anyway, the post on AcesHW focusses more on Creative HK's lawyer-centric approach to managing the issue than the technical details.

Lindsay notes this article on TheInq saying there may be an Athlon 1900+ close to release.

Iceman points out on Whirlpool that the Optus Cable NetStats service has not been updated in a few days.. so if you've been leeching like crazy and thinking your NetStats are not going up, you might be in for a nasty surprise.

TweakTown have a guide to tweaking WinXP.

There's another site on the scene - ColdOC.com - they have some new reviews and articles if you're stuck for something to read..
