Author: Ben Sun · 07-20-2008 Intel released their latest chipset, the Intel P45 chipset just a short month or so ago. The newest chipset includes new features like being built on the 65 nanometer process, support for the new ICH10R Memory Controller Hub and support for DDR1200. MSI’s new board, the P45 Platinum is based upon the new chipset and that is the board on the review bench today. So what’s the new P45 chipset all about? How does it perform compared to the X48 that is Intel’s big dog in the chipset market. Check it out at our friends , MotherBoards.org

An Amazon.com Exclusive, the Fallout 3: Survival Edition, is the ultimate Fallout 3 package that includes a life-size replica of the Pip-Boy 3000, the wrist-mounted device worn by characters in-game. The Pip-Boy 3000 has been painstakingly recreated and modified for real world display as a digital clock. In addition to the Pip-Boy 3000, the Survival Edition will include all of the items from the Fallout 3 Collector’s Edition including the Fallout 3 game, a customized, metal Vault-Tec lunch box, 5" Vault Boy Bobblehead, The Art of Fallout 3 hardcover book, and The Making of Fallout 3 DVD. Amazon.comAmazon also has the 'regular' Fallout 3 and Fallout 3: Collectors Edition which doesn't include the "real life" Pipboy 3000 alarm clock for pre-order. As much as I am trying to talk myself out of ordering the "Survival Pack" ($119.00USD), it's not working! The though of being a super-dork and having my own life-size PipBoy 3000 is too tempting. I am probably going to pre-order it. Someone talk me out of it?

As many as 20 to 30 processes may be running invisibly, silently in the background on your PC. Some hog system resources, drastically slowing down your computer. Others are a threat to security and privacy. A few may be harmless. The Windows Task Manager displays most of these processes but you have no information to learn and understand what is what. Get the latest definitions and exhaustive advice on all the processes running on directly in the Windows Task Manager by downloading the QuickLink InfoBar from ProcessLibrary.com. processlibrary

When we asked readers to submit their coolest, craziest, most all-consuming DIY projects, we knew we'd see some off-the-chart innovation (with video, plans and more). After all, when it comes to welding, building, modding and wiring brainstorms into reality, who does it better than Popular Mechanics readers? This year's winning inventions range from a submarine to a beer dispenser to a jet-powered go-kart, but they all have one thing in common. They deftly address a challenge—even if it's only how to get from here to there, very fast. popularmechanics

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Dozens of partygoers at an outdoor rave near Moscow last week have lost partial vision after a laser light show burned their retinas, Russian health officials said on Monday. Moscow city health department officials confirmed 12 cases of laser-blindness at the Central Ophthalmological Clinic, and daily newspaper Kommersant said another 17 were registered at City Hospital 32 in the centre of the capital. Attendees at the July 5 Aquamarine Open Air Festival in Kirzhach, 80 km (50 miles) northeast of Moscow, began seeking medical help days after the show, complaining of eye and vision problems, health officials told Reuters. "They all have retinal burns, scarring is visible on them. Loss of vision in individual cases is as high as 80 percent, and regaining it is already impossible," Kommersant quoted a treating ophthalmologist as saying. Attendees said heavy rains forced organizers to erect massive tents for the all-night dance party, and lasers that normally illuminate upwards into the sky were instead partially refracted into the ravers' eyes.

Popular electronics retailer Best Buy now has Ubuntu Linux version 8.04, known as Hardy Heron, available for sale for $19.99 along with additional open source software. Best Buy hopes working with Canonical will help expand the use of Ubuntu Linux to a new crowd it hopes is ready for Linux. Ubuntu has quickly become one of the most popular Linux distributions, overtaking the likes of Mandriva, Red Hat, and Debian. Other Linux distributors have attempted to bundle a Linux OS and additional software for retail sale, but have had little success due to the open availability of the OSes over the Internet. Hardy Heron has OpenOffice, Mozilla Firefox, Thunderbird, and additional free software features. Most important for new Linux users, the Ubuntu Wubi feature was designed to install Ubuntu through the Windows GUI without going through the trials and tribulations of partitioning the HDD. Customers who purchase Ubuntu from Best Buy will receive 60 days of free support, which may end up not being enough for completely new Linux users. It's possible to download Ubuntu for free through the ShipIt service and use the Ubuntu support forums to receive help from Canonical staff and other Ubuntu users. DailyTech

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology detailed a technique that can boost solar cell output and turn colored windows into solar panels. Published in Science magazine on Friday, the researchers have developed a way to use dyes painted on glass to redirect light. By pushing light to the edges and filtering it, they can concentrate the light and squeeze more electricity from photovoltaic solar cells. The cells are placed on the edges of the glass, rather than across the flat surface of glass, which would allow panel manufacturers to use less costly solar cell material. c|net

Microsoft's Internet Explorer remains the most popular browser in the world. This despite report after report calling the program less secure than Mozilla Firefox, Opera, and other free competitors. Yet IE remains the preferred browser of nearly four out of five people surfing the Web. If you're one of the Web majority, there's one thing you can do to enhance your online security: Update to the latest IE release. According to Net Applications, IE 6 accounted for more than 26 percent of the browser market in June 2008, while IE 7 was used by over 46 percent of all people on the Web. If your PC runs Windows 2000 or an earlier version of the OS, you can't upgrade to version 7 of IE. Unless your boss insists that you use the older version of the browser on XP or Vista, you've got no excuse for not upgrading to the safer IE 7. Unfortunately, Microsoft updates the browser only once a month, and even then not all known holes in the browser will be plugged, as Michael Horowitz pointed out in his Defensive Computing blog last week (scroll down to read the updates). c|net

The first details on the new Castle Wolfenstein game from id Software and Raven have started to slip out in the run-up to E3 and though there's still no information of a release date, it does seem that the game is being taken in a slightly new direction to the classic titles. Plot-wise, the yet-to-be-officially-named Return of the Return to Castle Wolfenstein is pretty much what you'd expect; BJ Blaskowitz, Nazis, and lots of creepy shenanigans and goin's on. Definitely expect to be going up against Nazi Ubermensch and zombies of some description. However, where it gets really interesting is in the gameplay changes. Wolfenstein is being developed not by id Software, but by best-buddy Raven and the change of hands has been evidenced in the gameplay. bit-tech.net

We've been on the phone to Nvidia this morning and have word on price drops for the latest Nvidia graphics cards: GeForce GTX 280, 260 and 9800 GTX+. The exact pricing for us (or you) Europeans and our neighbours in the States is: The GeForce GTX 280 drops to $449 or 359 Euros
GeForce GTX 260 drops to $299 or 239 Euros
GeForce 9800 GTX+ will come in at $199 or 169 EuroExact pound sterling prices are as yet to be determined since obviously our small island matters less, but you can extrapolate for yourselves a balance between Euro:Pound exchange rate, with the inevitable "British tax that makes everything more expensive than it should", added on top. The GeForce GTX 260 should now make the competition with the Radeon HD 4870 more fierce, as will the price drops for GeForce 9800 GTX+ with the Radeon HD 4850. The GeForce GTX 280 price drop is in anticipated response to the Radeon HD 4870 X2's release in the next few weeks. bit-tech.net

While the upgrade to the company's set-top box was advertised as adding support for remote control of iTunes and MobileMe, it also fixed some potentially serious flaws. All six of the issues addressed with this last batch of patches deal with the potential for arbitrary code execution, with all but one also possibly leading to crashes of the device. Three of the flaws can be exploited through movie files, two through QuickTime, and the last through PICT images. Of the movie file issues, all deal with the handling of so-called "atoms," which are bits of data in the QuickTime spec that hold various bits of information, such as title, codec identifiers, the encoded data, and so forth. Heap buffer overflows could occur in the data reference, 'crgn', and 'chan' atoms, which could be used to launch arbitrary code and crash the device. To fix it, Apple added additional validation of the data reference atoms, while adding improved bounds checking to the latter two. BetaNews

Mexican police are investigating a number of classified ads on the internet which purport to be from hitmen offering the services. The ads can be found alongside ones for private tuition or domestic help. In one of them, a person describing himself as an ex-military killer offers "discreet, professional services" for $6,000 (£3,000). Hired killers are a problem across a country which has seen at least 1,400 killings this year. Most of the killings are related to drug cartels battling for control of the illegal drugs trade to the US. Reports say the cartels have camps to train killers. The dead include dealers and gunmen as well as more than 400 police officers and other public officials, this year. Some 25,000 troops are now deployed around Mexico to try to break the cartels.
