Will The GPU Merge With The CPU? - Check out comments from the head of Alienware and two game developers (Tim Sweeney of Epic and David Wu of Pseudo Interactive)
ASUS enthusiast AM2 motherboard duel - HEXUS has posted a review on two ASUS AM2 motherboards. Both boards have a hilarious number of BIOS features, but the M2N32-SLI came across as slightly more tweakable, reflected by the fact that we could overclock the HTT by 10MHz more than the CROSSHAIR.
ASUS PhysX P1 - The enhanced visual affects afforded by the PhysX PPU will not be matched for at least another few months, and by that time you should see a considerably larger amount of hardware support for the card.
Dell XPS 700 Review - Bit-Tech take a look at the Dell XPS 700 - Dell's first machine designed for hardcore gamers. The system offers reasonable value for money as a base spec with a single card, a decent Core 2 Duo processor and storage. However, the cost of uprating the system with options is ludicrous!
Killer NIC gets an early review - The improvement with the Killer NIC was noticeable and impressive. Pings to server dramatically improved, generally ranging from 17-50ms, averaging 45ms over another two 15 minute sessions. FPS also got a nice bump, jumping our average from 74 to 86 fps.
Creative Fatal1ty Keyboard - The keyboard has backlighting that can be turned on and off. The keyset is the Sunrex keyset, which is similar to the feel of a laptop keyboard and has a quick response time, shorter keystrokes, etc.
Canon Pixma mini260 vs HP Photosmart A516 - Behardware.com has tested two inkjet printers.
FairUse4WM Cracks Windows Media DRM, Again - Only days after Microsoft patched the FairUse4WM DRM hack, the creators of the program have released an update that once again breaks the restrictions on protected WMA and WMV files.
Microsoft Delivers Another RC: .Net Framework 3.0 - The new Release Candidate of the .Net Framework 3.0 includes updated bits of Windows Presentation Foundation (Avalon), Windows Communications Foundation (Indigo), Windows Workflow Foundation, CardSpace (InfoSpace) and the .Net Framework 2.0. The Release Candidate build runs on Vista, Windows XP SP2, Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1.
Microsoft Photosynth Poised to Revolutionize Photo Imaging - Microsoft is currently hard at work on a project it calls Photosynth. Currently, the project is under the Microsoft Live development team, and no release date has been planned. However, what is known about Photosynth is that it will attempt to revolutionize the way people view their photo collections as well as change the way people take photos.
Google maps vs. Yahoo! maps - Side by side comparison tool by Sergey Chernyshev.
How BitTorrent Works - This article examines how BitTorrent works and how it is different from other file-distribution methods. It also discusses BitTorrent's future on the Internet.
Problems hit Debian world - One of the open sauce project Debian's significant champions, Matthew Garrett has quit over the way things are being run.
160Mbps down / 120Mbps up cable speeds coming - Cable modem speed freaks, be patient. One analyst predicts that by 2011, only 40 percent of consumers will be able to take advantage of the higher speeds offered by DOCSIS 3.0. DOCSIS 3.0 achieves its speed boost in part through "channel bonding" (using more than one channel to transmit data) for both up- and downstream transmission.
LG shows off 32in 3D display - The only downside was the 4m ideal viewing distance, although this should be too much of a problem if this was to become a technology used in TVs. The picture doesn't do it any justice at all, as the camera was unable to capture the 3D aspect of the panel, but some of the demos looked very impressive.
TracNet 100 Mobile WiFi and TV Now In Your Car - The TracNet 100 Mobile puts a WiFi hotspot, web browsing, and IPTV in your car.
Samsung previews updated credit-card phone - The SGH-P310 - to give it its full designation - retains the 220 x 176, 262,144-colour display of the P300, along with the latter's 80MB of memory and Micro SD memory card slot. Again, there's Bluetooth on board, now with A2DP wireless stereo, it seems. The P300 was a tri-band GSM/GPRS device.
M300: wristwatch GSM phone with SMS - First of all, it has SMS capabilities (thus the name). Secondly, it is indeed a mobile phone, sporting tri-band GSM/GPRS protocols in the 900/1800/1900 MHz ranges.
NASA Wants Elevator to Space - The key feature of a space elevator would be the use of a satellite that will orbit almost 23,000 miles above Earth. At this altitude, known as geostationary orbit, the orbital period of a satellite moving around the globe matches Earth's rotation.
Troops to test liquid armour - The armour consists of material impregnated with liquid silica that has been modified using nanotechnology.
The Ten Common Myths of I.T. - The TechZone has posted an article looking at The Ten Common Myths of I.T.
Sorry, you can't have the internet... you're over 70 - check it out
How to Destroy a City with Photoshop - Creativity can create, and in this case, DESTROY. A great tutorial showing the power of Photoshop when it comes to image manipulation
PornoTube Breaks into Alexa Top 300 within 2 Months - PornoTube, which is an adult version of YouTube, breaks into top 300 websites within two months. Since being introduced at TechCrunch, July 25 2006, Alexa now ranks PornoTube.com as the 253rd site on the Web (9/3/2006). Damn, maybe I should start porno here too :-D
The History Of Labor Day - Today is Labor Day. Most people think of Labor Day as a 3 day weekend, while that may be true, there is more to it than that
Steve Irwin Dead - News.com.au is reporting that Steve Irwin was killed in a freak accident while filming one of his well known documentaries. Surprisingly it wasn't a crocodile, it was a sting-ray.

The croc hunter is no more! I guess he had a pretty good run considering all beasties he hung around with.
