Firstly, DailyTech have posted an article saying the Defective Radeon Report is completely untrue. A recent article from DigiTimes had many graphics partners pointing a finger at AMD for several thousand potentially faulty Radeon HD 2600 and HD 2400 products.

Fujitsu is expected to announce a 1.2TB 2.5" HDD in for 2010. Manufacturers have been punching out larger capacity hard drives like crazy over the past few years.

According to PC World, the company is expected to announce later this week that it has developed a type of hard disk which uses alumina nanoholes for isolated bit-by-bit recording on a large disk area.
VIA Arena have posted an article on the Google Search engine. "Google has developed what the company calls "personalized search". It uses your own search history to guess what you want based on your past searches. Also, if you've ever signed up for a Google product like Gmail, AdSense, or the Google toolbar, Google also takes that information into account when returning Universal Search results. This is transparent in use – most people aren't aware that Google keeps two years' of your search history, and other information, on its servers."
Martin has sent in a blog of someone showing off Windows XP SP3. I did a clean install of Windows XP Professional (English, 32bit, Volume License) with Service Pack 2 integrated in a Virtual Machine. After that I installed Windows XP Service Pack 3 Beta build 3180. The SP3 executable pack is named windowsxp-kb936929-sp3-x86-enu.exe. So there we have the reserved KB article number. The size of the pack is 332 MB.

And lastly The Inquirer have posted an article on what the new DirectX 10.1 revision has to offer. REPRESENTATIVES from the almighty Vole have been speaking at Siggraph over the last few days, and what they've said hasn't exactly lowered the blood pressure of many attendees. Microserfs were there to espouse the greatness of DirectX 10.1, the next revision to the DX graphics spec, which is due to arrive with Windows Vista SP1.
