"While AMD stock is flying to the moon, AMDboard's slaves are quietly collecting the smallest pieces of the huge Athlon 64 jigsaw. After tons of motherboards, wonderful barebones, smart chipsets and thousand of useful links they are now back with a compilation of anything comestible on Athlon 64 laptops, notebooks and desktop replacements (sorry but that's AMD official terminology)."

"Tired of lugging around your notebook in poorly designed bags? Can't stuff all your mobile devices into one bag? Perhaps it's time to take a look at the new Kensington Saddlebag Pro!"

"ATI has been dominating the playing field in the VGA arena for the past year and they seem to find ways to grab our attention every few months. The 9800/9600XT series offer faster memory and core clock settings, but are they worth the extra money?"

"Gateway's latest entry into the digital imaging marketplace is their DV-S20, a 2.1 megapixel digital still and video camera. Gateway calls the camera "pocket sized" and for good reason. At 4.3 oz it measures 3.5 x 2.5 x 1.2 inches and truly does fit in a pocket. The camera records still images in the JPEG format and movies in the MPEG-4 format. "

"Most people do not realize just how important the PSU is to a modern day PC. It is really the heart of the PC, giving power and stability to each of the components in the system. A really good PSU is even more important to today's overclockers. With the ever growing demands placed on power supplies today, overclockers are always on the lookout for a very affordable PSU with really good and reliable power."

"The Snap Server 1100, is a small server about the size of a brick. The 1100 is the smallest and least expensive in a product line that goes all the way up to much more elaborate and costly enterprise NAS solutions. Strictly speaking, the Snap Server is called a "server appliance" because it works kind of like a microwave or a CD player, you plug it into the wall and into the network, turn it on, and use it. And having used it for the past two months I can attest to the fact that it does indeed live up to the "appliance" moniker. "

"The Thermaltake Extreme Volcano 12 is the latest in the Volcano series. An all copper base and a newly designed fan, the blood red and black tones are there to draw attention. Does the increase in size from my stock cooler guarantee proportionally increased results in cooling? "

"As you may recall about 2 months ago I reviewed the Corsair XMS 4000 memory modules, and as to be expected I gathered great results. At that time I thought to myself that memory could not get much better! I thought the heat-spreader design was attractive and so was the speed. The engineers over at Corsair obviously were not satisfied with their work and they decided to improve their flagship product with two very exciting and distinguishing features that actually make the new PRO memory not only more attractive physically, but functionally as well.
