Ex-Beatle George Harrison has died. Some tribute messages here in our forum. Redback noticed a story in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Mitch spotted these cool but frighteningly expensive cases on 3DCool.
Mibberz has guide to making a (very) cheap hard drive mounting kit in our forum.
ProCooling have part one of a modified Yeong-Yang Cube case project posted.
Watercooling seems to be the current trend in the PCDB with new/modified entries from Avidin, C.D, edwardnott and Sciflyer.
KaZaa, like Napster in many ways, is copping legal heat like Napster did, too.. thanks Dicey.
Apparently Microsoft is to blame for the current spate of email virii. Sonic found an article saying the latest BadTrans virus can capture keystrokes which could lead to passwords and credit card details etc being recorded/exposed. I'm still getting loads of those emails every day.. have you updated your virus software yet?
There's an interesting waterblock design over in Slo-Tech's forums.
Patdman noticed this new SBLive driver for Win2K/XP.
Back in March we heard a lot of rumours about "Ginger", a new transport device. That story got blown out of proportion, but apparently in a few days we may have more details, thanks YYK. Or maybe we're just blowing it out of proportion again. :)
Alchemy noticed some funny speed-camera photos that appeared here in our forums.
Scentists have made a transistor consisting of a single molecule, thanks Ropable.
Apparently the spike in RAM prices we've all seen over the last week or so is trickling into other parts of the market. I've heard from a couple of sources now that video cards are starting to spike too - because, of course, they contain a lot of RAM. YYK noted that P4's may be in short supply while Sonic found an article saying that Intel and AMD are suffering shortages.. so that may affect CPU pricing. It's all cyclical though.. things go down, things go up.
