There's some more info here about the long-term planetary effects of the 2004 Sumatran earthquake. The magnitude 9.3 earthquake has already been said to have shortened the day by fractions of a second, shifted the North Pole by an inch, and made the planet less fat around the middle.

ocelotx says we can call off the search for the Moore's Law magazine, because this guy in the UK won the prize.

Hexus compared ATI's Radeon X850 XT Platinum Edition AGP and Club3D's Radeon X800 XL AGP video cards, while TechWareLabs looked at the Hitachi 7K400 and Seagate 7200.8 400GB SATA hard drives. HWSecrets meanwhile consider the differences between AthlonXP and Sempr0n processors.
