Maxtor has introduced 300GB Diamond Max 10 drives (http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=17893). These drives have the benefit of using single chip Serial ATA technology, and also include native command queuing for dual processors and also come with a 16MB buffer for all models over 250GB.
Meanwhile, it looks like the MSI Geforce 6800 Ultra (probably a pretty expensive card) has some serious problems (http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=17887) with freeze ups that can only be fixed by flashing the card's BIOS.
Infected PCs continue to have problems with the MyDoom variant MyDoom-S (http://www.theregister.co.uk/2004/08/16/mydoom_spam/), when their silly users are silly enough to fall for the trick of opening an infectious attachment called photos_arc.exe.
And, in very interesting news, AMD may well ship a 4-core CPU by 2007. Read more here (http://www.theregister.co.uk/2004/08/16/amd_quad-core_opteron/) about the plans for a quad-core Operton.
