More Netscape 7 News
Published: Friday, May 24, 2002 - By: DennisNews Source: Ninjalane
I've been using the RC1 for a couple of days now and I must say it is a vast improvement over 6.2. Security features are easier to find, browsing is faster, and the tabbed browsing is awesome.
I am currently working on a sidebar page for Netscape 6+ so all of the latest News, Reviews, and Forum posts will be at your fingertips. The trick is you will have to run Netscape to use it.

Netscape 7 Preview Release 1
Published: Friday, May 24, 2002 - By: DennisNews Source: Ninjalane
Much like how Netscape 6 was just an altered version of the mozilla 0.9 browser I suspect Netscape 7 will follow suit being based on Mozilla's 1.0 release, I can't wait.
PCWorld has a biased review of the new browser located here.

This is a pretty short interview but does give a few details on the new Doom III game and what it will have to offer.
Preview of Win4Lin 4.0
Published: Thursday, May 23, 2002 - By: DennisNews Source: Ninjalane
A usable Linux desktop for the Windows user might not be that far away. Personally I would have already jumped at the chance of ridding Microsoft from my desktop but many of the apps that I use on a daily basis won't run under Linux. ![]()
SQL Worm Getting Press
Published: Thursday, May 23, 2002 - By: DennisNews Source: Ninjalane
What a suprise another Microsoft product under attack but this time not on a consumer level. "A new worm that targets Microsoft SQL Server software has inundated networks with thousands of scans for vulnerable database servers".

Website Feature Reminder
Published: Wednesday, May 22, 2002 - By: DennisNews Source: Ninjalane
This is a friendly reminder of the many features that are somewhat hidden here at Ninjalane.
First and foremost ad space both above and to the left. Our advertisers keep the reviews fresh and help pay for bandwidth so please click and buy what you can.
Next we have the Ninjalane Message Forums. In recent months I have applied quite a few updates to enhance forum features and security. What are you waiting for?, go forth and Register, its free!
Another not so well known feature is the Ninjalane World News section that features and XML news feed from Moreover.com.
For those that dare to be different you can change the color of your Ninjalane experience by applying a Color Theme, currently the default color is green though you can choose from Red, Blue, and Gray.
Also keep watch for Ninjalane v2 to be released soon, the design is done I just need to find time to code the templates.
KoreaMOD Moddin Site
Published: Wednesday, May 22, 2002 - By: DennisNews Source: Ninjalane
This site is littered with Korea speak so us non-Korean speaking peeps will have to settle with looking at pretty pictures. Be warned there is a nasty refresh bug in the gallery section that reloads the page every 20 seconds or so, its really annoying in non-IE browsers.

DigiTimes tells us that K8 chipsets will be at Computex but the processors have yet to be seen. For once the chipset market is ahead of the game.

Kyle and the OCP gang have rolled out their new site design this week complete with PHP programming and a PostgreSQL backend. Now if they will ever post the news I send in I'll be happy. ![]()
VIA P4X333 Review @ Anandtech
Published: Monday, May 20, 2002 - By: DennisNews Source: Ninjalane
I really like the title of this review "VIA's P4X333 - If they only had a License". It would appear that Anand is happy with the performance. In case you didn't know VIA has cornered the market with their AMD chipsets though is producing Pentium 4 chipsets "illegally". In a way it's like driving without a license, nobody can really stop you from doing it and you might be really good but, when you get caught there can be trouble.
AMD Demos the Slegehammer
Published: Friday, May 17, 2002 - By: DennisNews Source: Ninjalane
The demo system was even running the 64-bit version of Windows. So in a way we have a couple of firsts here. The first public demo of the Slegehammer and the first public demo of a 64-bit Windows OS
Intel Celeron 1.7GHz @ Anandtech
Published: Friday, May 17, 2002 - By: DennisNews Source: Ninjalane
This is a typical Celeron offering cept its using a trimmed down Willamette P4 core. The trimmings really hurt overall performance but for less than 100 bones what can you expect.
MSI 845E Max2 Review @ tbreak
Published: Friday, May 17, 2002 - By: DennisNews Source: Ninjalane
MSI seems to be really on the ball when it comes to releasing new products to the public. This board is based on the new Intel 845E Pentium 4 chipset supporting the new 533MHz FSB. Intel still hasn't switched to the current DDR333 trend but that's not a big surprise considering DDRII is coming around the corner.
Gainward GeForce4 Ultra/650TV GS Review @ tbreak
Published: Friday, May 17, 2002 - By: DennisNews Source: Ninjalane
This looks to be a great low-end solution to the GeForce4 line of video cards. Nvidia originally wanted the GF4MX to fill that gap but the chip left much to be desired. Plus the PCB is red. ![]()
The Perfect P4 Chipset?
Published: Wednesday, May 15, 2002 - By: DennisNews Source: Ninjalane
VIA is at it again this time with a whole new chipset for the P4, the P4X333. This chipset features AGP 8x, ATA133, DDR333 and a nice ball kick to Intel.
Matrox Parhelia-512 Preview @ HardwareZone
Published: Tuesday, May 14, 2002 - By: DennisNews Source: Ninjalane
I used to be very loyal to Matrox in the days before AGP was a mainstream video solution. My love of Matrox turned with the release of the G200 with its sub-par gaming performance and lack of tweakable features. I have a feeling that this might all change can you say triple-head gaming??
I knew you could.
So far no word on framerates but it supports some hella high resolutions.

The site full of weird, and wacky news, kind of a cross between Popular Science, and Popular Mechanics with a little "news from the weird" to mix it up.
Kingwin KT-436 Alu Case Review @ Hardware Pub
Published: Tuesday, May 14, 2002 - By: DennisNews Source: Ninjalane
Casedepot sold these cases last time I checked. Personally I'm still running a non Alu case mostly cause I feel better about modding it.
