Well, it has been a long time, but I think I've still got what it takes to make a news post here. Let's see, shall we?...
Ever since the PCDB came back online fully, there's been a spate of new systems listed (and some old listings updated). Very nice watercooled setup from morphling1... CubeH20 and KungFuCamel's entries are not too shabby either...
Rumour has it (it's the Enquirer, OK?) that Gainward plan on releasing a "Golden Sample" GeForce4 Ti4200 video card, clocked at 270MHz/570MHz (core/RAM). That's getting RIGHT up there into Ti4400 territory. Thanks to goofydave for that link.
Speaking of rumours, Daniel let us know that DigiTimes are reporting that nForce 2 will be debuting on July 16th.
First there was Terminator, where Arnie was the bad guy. Then there was Terminator 2, when Arnie was the good guy. Now there's Terminator 3 - I don't know if Arnie's good or bad in this one, but you can view the trailer here on the Apple website. Thanks to Kaser for spotting that one.
Daniel Rutter (of Dan's Data fame) has decided to let people know how not to email him in his latest Ground Zero column. Read, pay attention, learn. He's also posted an I/O Letters column.
Tired of lugging your 17" or 19" monitor around when you go to a LAN? What about your mid or full tower system? Bjorn3D reckon they've got the answer.
Have you ever wondered how some of the fancier etched case windows were made? Ever wished you could have one? Systemcooling.com thought that you might like some instructions on doing it yourself...
You may or may not know what a trebuchet is - it was designed in medieval times for hurling large objects (like rocks/boulders/burning things) at people you really didn't like (who were holed up in a castle you wanted to get into for instance). I bet the original designers never imagined in their wildest dreams that their contraption would be one day be built as a functioning lego model though. Thanks to Icarus for that link - it may not necessarily be technical, or related to computer hardware, but it is cool...
Something else that's rather cool. TonyR let us know about the NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day page.
And just when you thought you were safe from further Shockwave Flash games, Rage sent in this link. Multi-player mini golf and other fantastic time wasters await you there...
