Fellow Webmasters, Site Owners and Newsposters, Tweaknews.net has released yet another review onto the internet. I was wondering if you could please post it in today's news for me. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Article Name: In Win B2 Stealth Bomber Case Review ( -at -) Tweaknews.net Article Url: http://www.tweaknews.net/reviews/in_win_b2_stealth_bomber_case/ Article PIC: http://www.tweaknews.net/reviews/in_win_b2_stealth_bomber_case/img/email.jpg Article Snippet: "Regardless of whether or not you're a fighter jet enthusiast, In Win's latest offering is worthy of your next system build or simply to replace an old, boring case. It has just about every feature that one would need while maintaining a sleek, non-cluttered look just like the jet it was inspired by. Quite honestly, I can't find any real reason not to highly recommend it." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Could you email back saying you posted it, TWEAK IT LIKE YOU MEAN IT!!!!

I have also been guilty of name-dropping, and thinking Rosewill as "too cheap" or "too generic" before I tried any of their products. Today I will be reviewing the Rosewill RCX-Z775 CPU Cooler. It is a tower styled cooler, designed to fit LGA775 coolers, and sporting a 92mm fan. I am very familiar with 92mm tower coolers, having used them nearly exclusively for the past three years. How will the Rosewill cooler stack up against other 92mm towers? Read on and see..." -

Title: ASUS P5E3 Premium WiFi-AP ( -at -) n Motherboard Review ( -at -) HardwareLogic Quote: "As a true super power of the motherboard industry, we can always count on ASUS for a little shock and awe whenever a new chipset rolls out, filled to bursting with features and details not seen among its peers. Running the gauntlet from low-end boards that fill out the major consumer market to beastly monstrosities with endless bundles and gargantuan overclocking ability, ASUS can seemingly release new and innovative boards at will."

A news post would be great. OCC has published a new review of the ADATA C702 Classic 16GB Flash Drive Here is a quote from the review: Quote: "I must say I am amazed on how well the ADATA C702 performed. It offers blazing fast speeds and high capacities for not a lot of money. At about $70 for 16GB of portable storage that's a deal. The C702 outperformed other drives in it's class in all of the read speed tests, including the OCZ Rally2, which is a dual channel drive built for fast transfer rates. If you are in the market for a portable flash drive and don't need the frills, like encryption and U3 Smart software, I would definitely recommend the ADATA C702."

ASUS EN8800GT TOP 512MB Graphics Card Review @ Hardware Canucks
news posted a topic in Upcoming News
Hardware Canucks is pleased to present our review of the ASUS EN8800GT TOP 512MB graphics card. Quote: In every one of the tests we ran, this card was a good ten to fifteen percent faster than a stock 8800GT and in quite a few instances actually passed the performance levels of an 8800GTS 512MB. This is the perfect product for those of you who don’t want to go through the trials (and voided warranties with some companies) of overclocking your graphics card to get the maximum performance it can offer. Right out box you have a card that is able to put any stock-clocked 8800GT to shame which is incredible considering pre-overclocked products don’t usually come with the gameplay increase this one does. In the 8-series world this card occupies, it really is balls-out performance that the ASUS 8800GT TOP offers.

Bigbruin.com has new content posted... A mention in your site's news section would be greatly appreciated! Title: Kingston HyperX 1GB PC2-9600 DDR2 Memory Kit URL: http://www.bigbruin.com/2008/kingston9600_1 Image URL (150x70 pixels): http://www.bigbruin.com/2008/kingston9600/logo.gif Quote: Whether it was in benchmarks, gaming, or every day use, the Kingston PC2-9600 DDR2 kit performed well. Getting up and running at 1200MHz was easier than I expected, and the only effort required was to bump the speed up in the BIOS. Even overclocking was easy, and the test system was able to push these modules to 1280MHz by simply relaxing the tRAS value from 15 to 16. Thank you. Best regards, Jason www.bigbruin.com

We are pleased to announce version 0.2.0 of Vala, a compiler for the GObject type system. Vala 0.2.0 is now available for download at: http://download.gnome.org/sources/vala/0.2/ Changes since 0.1.7 * Support nested namespaces. * Support static constructors. * Register enums with GType (Marc-André Lureau) * Small syntax change for default values of properties. * Add --verbose commandline option (Daniel Silverstone) * Improve pointer support. * Add GNOME Keyring bindings (Andrea Del Signore) * Add SDL bindings (Levi Bard) * Add libftdi bindings (Evan Nemerson) * Updates to the GLib, GTK+, GStreamer, and SQLite bindings. * Many bug fixes all over the place. Vala is a new programming language that aims to bring modern programming language features to GNOME developers without imposing any additional runtime requirements and without using a different ABI compared to applications and libraries written in C. valac, the Vala compiler, is a self-hosting compiler that translates Vala source code into C source and header files. It uses the GObject type system to create classes and interfaces declared in the Vala source code. It's also planned to generate GIDL files when gobject- introspection is ready. The syntax of Vala is similar to C#, modified to better fit the GObject type system. Vala supports modern language features as the following: * Interfaces * Properties * Signals * Foreach * Lambda expressions * Type inference for local variables * Generics * Non-null types * Assisted memory management * Exception handling Vala is designed to allow access to existing C libraries, especially GObject-based libraries, without the need for runtime bindings. Each to be used library requires a Vala API file at compile-time, containing the class and method declarations in Vala syntax. Vala currently comes with bindings for current versions of GLib, GTK+, and many more. Using classes and methods written in Vala from an application written in C is not difficult. The Vala library only has to install the generated header files and C applications may then access the GObject-based API of the Vala library as usual. It should also be easily possible to write a bindings generator for access to Vala libraries from applications written in e.g. C# as the Vala parser is written as a library, so that all compile-time information is available when generating a binding. More information about Vala is available at http://live.gnome.org/Vala The Vala Team Jürg Billeter and Raffaele Sandrini _______________________________________________

Hello again! I'm afraid that the 4.7.2 tarball was accidentally built from the wrong version of the code, so I've rebuilt the correct version as 4.7.3 and uploaded again.

Hi, We've just posted our latest review and would love it if you linked it. TIA! "Whereas some might prefer the traditional interface and stability of Cyberlink's PowerDVD, WinDVD 9 Plus Blu-ray is definitely the reigning champ. Having said that it's not without its faults. Most noticeable is that you can't select WinDVD 9 for playing only some video and audio file formats, as it does not use file associations. This means you can't designate it as your default player for MPEG-2 HD and use something else for MOV and WAV files. Still, while it's not entirely perfect, Corel has a winner on its hands - at least until the next release of PowerDVD." http://www.biosmagazine.co.uk/rev.php?id=724 _____ Christian Harris Editor/Publisher BIOS (http://www.biosmagazine.co.uk) _____

Nvidia's new 9-series graphics cards offer bold new frontiers of 3D video power - if you've got the money to build a three- or four-way SLI system. If one graphics card with one processor on it is more your speed, though, is there any reason to bother with a GeForce 9600 or 9800?

(Vincent Untz) - Move default Welcome/RemoteWelcome strings from gdm.h to gdm-daemon-config-keys.h so it isn't defined twice. (Brian Cameron) - Translation updates (Takeshi AIHANA, Wouter Bolsterlee, Luca Ferretti, Gil Forcada, Jorge Gonzalez, Gabor Kelemen, Petr Kovar, Yuri Kozlov, Duarte Loreto, Gintautas Miliauskas, Inaki Larranaga Murgoitio, Jovan Naumovski, Claude Paroz, Marcel Telka, Philip Withnall) Note: GDM2 was originally written by Martin K. Petersen . Much work has been done on GDM2 by George Lebl; and Brian Cameron. Note2: If installing from the tarball do note that make install overwrites most of the setup files, all except gdm.conf. It will however save backups with the .orig extension first. #ifndef GDM_DISABLE_DEPRECATED Note3: Note3 has been depracated ... #endif /* GDM_DISABLE_DEPRECATED */ Downloading: ============ Online Documentation - http://www.gnome.org/projects/gdm/ Latest Stable - http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gdm/2.20/ Latest Unstable - http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gdm/2.21/ Bug Reporting - http://bugzilla.gnome.org in the "gdm" category.
