  • Netscape Seeks Damages From Microsoft

    Published: Tuesday, January 22, 2002 | By: Dennis

    Not really a bad idea if I say so myself. I am an avid Netscape fan and would like to see the browser come back on top but being that AOL suxX0rs it probably won't happen.

  • Zalman CNPS6000-Cu Fan Heatsink Review

    Published: Tuesday, January 22, 2002 | By: Dennis

    Frosty Tech is jumping in with some heatsink reviews for the P4 478. Personally I'm partial to the copper core, aluminum finned heatsinks like the Alpha and others like it but this one looked to cool to pass up. It isn't the best cooler for the P4 but it is very quiet.

  • Abit BD7 RAID i845D socket 478 @ Active Hardware

    Published: Tuesday, January 22, 2002 | By: Dennis

    Active Hardware has the Abit 845D board on the grill and with most Abit motherboards it is quite impressive.

  • EPoX 4BDA2+ Motherboard Review @ Tweakers Asylum

    Published: Tuesday, January 22, 2002 | By: Dennis

    This board from Epox looks to be wider than the rest and the review would seem more like a round-up considering how many boards the Tweakers compared it against.

  • IWill XP333-R Motherboard Review @ PC Stats

    Published: Tuesday, January 22, 2002 | By: Dennis

    Honestly I didn't read though this review fully however I did find this quote on the front page that explains alot. " However, the absolute biggest issue with this board is the fact that Iwill calls this a DDR333 capable board. And while yes that is technically correct, and you should be able to hit 166 MHz FSB, there isn't a option in the BIOS to run your memory +33 MHz when you're running your system at stock 133 MHz FSB speeds. So in that way it is not a 'true' 333-based board like any of the newer SiS645 (P4) or the SiS745 (AMD) systems, or even for that matter VIA's up and coming KT333 chipset." sad smile

  • VIA DDR333 Summit 2002

    Published: Tuesday, January 22, 2002 | By: Dennis

    It would seem that Via thinks the future is in DDR333 and figures that everyone should know this as well. Think Intel will be at the summit? Ya, your probably right wink smile

  • Osama Hunter-Hacker Busted

    Kim Schmitz was busted just hours before he was going to commit suicide and broadcast it on the net via webcam. What a great way to go into hiding. Do a show and tell if you killing yourself and in the confusion skip town. Click the link to read more.

    I just finished the single player of this game last weekend. It was tough to beat but really fun to play.

  • AMD Bug in Linux

    Published: Monday, January 21, 2002 | By: Dennis

    It would seem that an old bug in the Athlon processor is still causing problems with Linux 2.4 kernel. The Linux/AMD bug is in relation to a compatibility issue with Intel's 4MB page size. (x86 processors have used 4k pages, ever since paging was introduced in the 80386).

  • [H]ard|OCP Got a Refresh

    Published: Monday, January 21, 2002 | By: Dennis

    Looks like Kyle at [H]ard|OCP has finally gotten his new site design online, complete with dynamic database driven content and HTML code that only IE could love (I wouldn't suggest going there with Netscape 6 you will be in for a surprise). Overall the new design and layout is pretty sweet, a much needed update for an old player.
