Websurveys are....
Published: Thursday, August 8, 2002 | By: DennisIt would appear that my current websurvey question of "Website surveys are..." falls into the category of "Depends on the topic" class though I would assume a greater number of websurfers feel it to be a "Waste of my time".
If you have feelings either way click a radio button and submit your vote. Depending on the outcome I might just remove the damn thing.

Detecting a "CyberAttack"
Published: Thursday, August 8, 2002 | By: DennisThe whole article is funny but I get a real kick out of this paragraph.
""Knowing the average cyber-ankle-biter, people known to stay up at odd hours, it's not at all unreasonable to entertain the idea that the NIPC alert might have precipitated some nincompoops who had nothing better to do with their time except create a statistical blip in someone's Internet monitoring service," Smith said.

Soltek SL-85MIR-L Review @ Tweakers Australia
Published: Thursday, August 8, 2002 | By: DennisIf you have been following the Soltek press released at all you will remember that this is the board that Soltek overclocked to 200MHz FSB.
The Tweakers crew seemed to be preoccupied with the shinny new mouse pad and lack of Vcore adjustments to take notice.
For those that don't know Soltek released a BIOS for the 85MIR-L that would allow the user to lock the AGP, and PCI clocks while still allowing adjustments to the FSB and memory. In doing so their engineers where able to overclock the system to 200MHz using an unlocked 1.7GHz P4. -
Soltek SL-85ERV Review @ Hardware-test.dk
Published: Tuesday, August 6, 2002 | By: DennisWe actually have one of these boards on the test bench and I must say I'm quite impressed with the VIA P4X400 chipset. It's an amazing overclocker at least with the 533MHz processors. Look for the review to be posted later this week, in the meantime checkout what the UK guys have to say.

phj34r my lack of news
Published: Saturday, August 3, 2002 | By: DennisSorry for the lack of news postings but since the 1st I've been quite busy. The most distracting of them was birthday stuff on the 1st of this month.
Stay tuned, there should be a new motherboard review by the middle of next week and it should be a dozy.
