Antonio has spotted a mention of us in a newspaper article. Our mention is located in the first column, third paragraph. Amazingly the article is not about Overclocking at all, it is about Apple computers.

Hexus has interviewed Intel's marketing man Don MacDonald. "Don is vice president of the Sales and Marketing Group and director of Corporate Brands and Marketing for Intel. He is in charge of Intel's branding and marketing worldwide. HEXUS talks to Don about his job and breaking down the platform boundaries."

Mark has sent in this video of an interesting advertisement of a new bizarre Wii game Rayman Raving Rabbids.

ViaArena takes a look at Vista Aero and some of the myths of the new GUI system. Also Microsoft has released an update to try and thwart the activation workaround people hava discovered.

TFOT has a great article about solid state hard disks delving in detail what they are all about. "Samsung was the first to come out with a consumer 32 GB flash-based solid state drive for mobile PCs, opening up the category for other solid state drive manufacturers. This article explores the solid state drive technology that might replace our aging hard drives in only a couple of years."

Yonas sent in an article about Firefox 3. "Firefox 3 will include some significant changes. It uses version 1.9 of the Gecko rendering engine--which itself hasn't been released yet and which includes the Cairo graphics layer. Gecko 1.9 has been in development since before the release of Firefox 2, and it provides vector-based rendering on all platforms."

The next version of Windows (after Vista) has been announced. Codenamed Fiji it may turn into a minor update to Vista or a fully fledged OS.

Matt has sent in a humorous Google Earth picture (Not safe for work). Hint: look closely at the center building.
