There's a 160GB hard disk drive roundup on HWSecrets. I didn't know they were even still making 160GB HDD's! :) Of course there is the option of buying a 250 GB or bigger model, but on this review we decided to focus on the low-cost market, leaving models with higher capacity for a future round-up (you can count on it!).
HWZone meanwhile have a trio of GeForce GTX 260 video cards and some passive HDD coolers from Scythe and Titan are compared on MadShrimps.

Anthrox sent in some pics of an extremely dusty PC. Found this PC at work a few months ago it had been running a few years in a manufacturing environment the hdd finally died.
Panasonic have a giant touchscreen on display. The dully named Digital Wall might not do multi-touch, but the size of the thing makes it a must-see if you ever get down there.
