Logitech MX1000 Laser Cordless Mouse @ TrustedReviews

“According to Logitech this new laser technology is 20 times more sensitive than even the best LED based mice, which means that you can use it on virtually any surface. Of course I had to try this, so I got a clear CD jewel case out and held it up in the air, and believe it or not, it worked just fine. Now, where did I put that glass mouse mat?”

Asus AX800XT/TVD Videocard Review @ PCStats

“In this review PCstats is testing one of Asus’s flagship Radeon videocards, the AX800XT/TVD. Built on the extremely popular ATI Radeon X800 XT Platinum Edition VPU, I’m sure you can already guess that the benchmark results are going to be fast… like hella-fast! ATI offload the production of their graphics processors to TSMC’s now aging 0.13 micron manufacturing process, and each one of these little slabs of silicone contains a full 160 million transistors. Backing those 160 million transistors is 256MB of Samsung 1.6ns DDR-3 memory, clocked at 1.12 GHz.”
