I haven't tried it myself yet, but Dopefish sent word that a free 1-year subscription to AVG AV Pro can be snaffled from V3.co.uk. This promotion is available between midday CET Tuesday 31st of August and midday CET Wednesday 1st of September 2010. CET is "Central European Time". If the promotion runs out of serial codes before midday CET 1st of September 2010, this promotion will expire automatically.
A video blog called DataCenterPulse has checked out a very cool converted cold war bunker in Sweden which now houses a datacentre. It is located in a bunker 30 meters under solid bedrock. It was a cold war bunker that was converted into this datacenter and is said to be able to withstand a Hydrogen bomb blast. It is very unique and reminds me of a James Bond movie!

The latest sites to tackle Mafia II performance are TechSpot and TechGage. So with a new full version copy of Mafia II loaded onto our test system and two dozen graphics cards lined up ready to test, we set about to deliver another GPU & CPU performance article. Not only have we tested a huge range of graphics cards, but we will also look at the impact PhysX has on performance with and without a dedicated card. As usual, we'll also take a quick look at CPU scaling performance for those concerned if they have the necessary guts on that front as well.
Wynode sent in an article clarifying the earlier plane crash malware story. But even if the headquarters office had maintained its PC perfectly, the plane would still have taken off.
