This coming Saturday is a National Day of Action against internet censorship in Australia. This Saturday 6 March 2010, some of the other organisations that are working for an Open Internet and against the Government’s impractical and costly policy of Government censorship are holding a series of events around the country Looks like there's events in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth and Brisbane.

InTheFade spotted a superfast system from Patriot. Well, superfast on the storage side of things at least. hey managed to build the worlds fastest PC, using five LSI controllers to connect forty SSDs to them. The system manages a sustained 155,000 IOPS/s This may not give you and idea about the actual speed, but we were given a great example. Ripping a Blu-Ray takes 2-3 hours on a good PC. It takes a mere 0.9 seconds on this one.

There's a new issue of TheOverclocker out, and it's a special edition about "The Science of Overclocking". Could be interesting..
