Interesting discussion in #overclockers last night concerning Wireless LANS.. Pace pointed out this guide to modifying an old Galaxy/Foxtel/Austar antennae to work with Wireless, meanwhile Miken pointed out that WaveLAN cards are about the best around and V8R highlighted his WLAN project. All quite interesting stuff.. thanks to McNugget for sending in the URL's.

Mike points out this link also seen on slashdot about modifying your Mac Cube to accept a second processor.. however, with the original cube already running fairly warm (the CPU is passively cooled I believe) it might be a rather brave mod.

New site OCLabs has a rather heroic Athlon overclock posted.. a 1GHZ AYHJAR running at a massive 1708MHz. The article is in Italian, but the pictures and graphs tell half the story, and if you want the other half there is always the 'fish.

SG points out that over on SourceForge there is a petition happening requesting Creative to release the source code to the Aureal 8830 drivers. I reckon it'd be really awesome if Creative did so, and with A3D pretty much dead I don't see any harm in them doing so.. but I still don't think it'll happen too quickly.

OverclockerCafe is giving away an Asus V8200 GeForce3 to one lucky reader for Christmas.

As we reported a while ago, Radeonic has decided to close their virtual doors.. they've now reopened under their new banner of 3DVelocity.
