ASUS P4C800:

Lost Circuits busted out this review of the ASUS P4C800 Canterwood mainboard today, giving us a little insight into the boards performance and features.

Every mainboard manufacturer of rank is rushing to market with their incarnation of i875-based mainboard to grab a piece of the pie while it is still hot. Among the heavy weights, one might have guessed it, is ASUSTek with their P4C800.

RIAA Chat?

Don’t answer that instant message just yet…it might be the RIAA threatening you. No kidding. Thank Joe Alpert for that one.

The recording industry is turning file-swappers' own tools against them with a new campaign to send warnings to people who are offering copyrighted materials online. Tapping into the chat functions built into software programs such as Kazaa and Grokster, the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on Tuesday started sending automatic messages to people who are providing copyrighted songs online, warning them that they're breaking the law. About 200,000 people who use Kazaa and Grokster received the warning notice Tuesday and millions more will get notices in coming weeks, said Cary Sherman, the RIAA's president

Heh, I think I just found a new way to play jokes on my friends that swap tunes. Message them with “This is the RIAA, put your hands up and drop the MP3s”, heh…that is too funny.
