A few people mentioned there's a "Hacker Documentary" on SBS at 8:30 tonight, might be worth checking out.

This came via 2600.org.au's mailing list - an analysis of some worrisome cookie-based behaviour in MS IE.

Yet another cooler roundup is up, this 15-unit one on SpodesAbode. Looks like we really caught the front of the wave with our 21-cooler roundup from a few weeks ago now.

From Manaz: Apparently there's a listing on Pricewatch for a Tyan Thunder dual Athlon motherboards, USD$575...

I don't know if it's dual Athlon4 (Palomino) or Thunderbird (or perhaps both), but that translates to about AUD$1200 landed here...

Hopefully some of the other manufacturers will have a go at a dual Athlon board, without all the server stuff (the Tyan board will more than likely come with onboard LAN, SCSI and video, and the ability to run more RAM than most users would know what to do with), but I can still see a dual Athlon setup's most expensive piece being its motherboard...


We need a BP6 equivalent! Still, it's early days for the technology. Do we know if 2 CPU's is the limit for the K7 platform? Or will we see quad Palomino workstations? Now -there's- some serious power suckage. Anyway, Electic have a link to the Pricewatch page in question. Wonder if it'll get yanked.

More to come..
