SD/MMC to CompactFlash Type II Converter at DragonSteelMods:

The adapter itself is obviously the size of a Compact Flash Type II card, it is made of metal and plastic and feel very sturdy so your data should be well protected. You can see the slot for the SD/MMC cards is on the side of the adapter.


Cooler Master Cosmos at DVHardware:

One of the special features of this case is that the opening direction of the door can be changed. By default the door opens to the right but it's pretty easy to change this, only takes a minute or two. The front panel of the case features two magnets on the left and right side so the door won't accidentally open and the door also features two small pieces of rubber which ensure that the door won't slam too hard.


takeMS MEM-Drive 1Gb Firewall and 4Gb Mini Hi-speed USB Drives at Tekbunker:

Whether you use the Internet Explorer or Firefox, with Carry it Easy+Plus you can synchronize both browsers' favourites. With Carry it Easy +Plus you can synchronize Microsoft Outlook on several PCs or just make your Outlook data portable when you are off on holiday. This saves you having to take your notebook.


Intel QX6850 Quad-Core CPU - 1333MHz FSB at TweakTown:

Intel tried all it could to squeeze as much money out of Netburst, but when Dothan laptop CPUs were simply able to kill the desktop versions it was time to put this to bed. Intel’s Core architecture made its debut not on the desktop but on the Laptop and mobile platforms, with the Core Solo and Core Duo really making a name for themselves in the initial stages, so much so that it made sense for desktop boards to be developed which could run these mighty quick and efficient CPUs.


Samsung 32GB Solid State Drive at Bit-tech:

Despite solid state devices offering a greater reliability because of no moving parts, NAND Flash suffers from wear of use and actually loses the ability to record data after a certain number of writes. That amount is into the many millions but that hasn’t stopped people in the past trying to use large Compact Flash cards as a dedicated pagefile drive and having them die within a day. The pagefile (swap in Linux) is constantly read and written to in Windows and is ideally suited to a high I/O device like Flash, however after several million read/writes to the same area it will fail.


Sunbeam Silent Whisper at techPowerUp:

The Silent Whisper is a smaller heatsink based on a 92mm fan. It consists of three U-shaped heatpipes, a copper base and aluminum fins like many other coolers out there. The fan is an open-frame style which reduces turbulence and decreases fan noise. The fan clips and screws onto the fins of the heatsink, which means it is not easily replaceable. The two heatsinks actually use different fans, one for the Socket 775 version and one for the K8 version. The AMD version uses a standard three-pin connector, but the Intel version uses the newer four-pin connector with the PWM output.


SilverStone TJ09 Full Tower Case at XtremeComputing:

The vent at the bottom right of the side panel serves 2 purposes, first it allows air to get to the hard drives immediately behind it which have their own compartment. Also it also allows air to be drawn into the case by the “centre” fan as the hole you can see below passes right through the case. I have to say this feature is a first for me personally.


Uniblue SpeedUpMyPC 3 at PCApex:

We shall see. I will be testing and evaluating SpeedUpMyPC 3 on a machine that desperately needs some kind of help, my parents old and dying Athlon XP 2200+ with 512Mb DDR333. My reasoning being of course that this is just the kind of piece of cra... sorry, machine, this program is aimed at. My initial suggestion involving an open window and a three storey drop didn't meet much approval, so here goes plan B. SpeedUpMyPC 3, you have your orders.


Thermaltake SopranoRS 101 Enclosure at Virtual-Hideout:

Two thumb screws on the back are removed and the side panel slides off. The interior of the SopranoRS is laid out very simply, and should make installation of gear a snap. Five internal 3.5" bays are present, and all of the bays (internal and external) have a redesigned Tool-free clip. The seven PCI expansion slots on the back also have the Tool-free clips. Only one fan is supplied with the enclosure, which is an 120mm fan on the exhaust port at the rear of the enclosure.


Canon PowerShot SD1000/IXUS 70 Digital Camera at Madshrimps:

The DISP stands for Display; it turns on/off the LCD display. Pressing the MENU button will show the screen settings below. We will go through the ISO, Macro/Infinity, Erase/Burst shots/Timer, Flash and FUNC Set (short cut) settings afterward. Then, there is a slide switch to toggle between photo/video/review.
