Welcome!
CeBIT and E3 are on the way. Hopefully this will bring a ton of new computer announcements to keep our pockets empty.
I plan to go to CES or E3 every year, but I never make it. If procrastination was an Olyimpic event, I would medal in it every time (if I ever got around to participating).
Case Mod
The Best Case Scenario has a good forum section filled with work logs of computer mods. Lots of good tips, tricks and ideas.
Best known for their "Project Mars City" Doom III case that a lot of people have been following in the Hardforum
Free MMORPG List
A post in the forums at MMORPG.com has a huge list of free online games. Kingdom of Loathing was not on the list, but is also free and fun.
Disinfecting a Computer
Usually a vacuum is enough to clean the dust bunnies out of a case. But what if a real animal gets in there and makes a deposit? Find out at Anandtech, where a Ferret has made a stink about the issue.
Deal of the Day
SanDisk 2GB Memory Stick Pro Duo $85.19!
After Rebate. Best price I have seen, I may get one for my digital camera. I would get one for my PSP, but I don't have one yet :-(
Past deals of the day
Network Terms
With all of the acronyms and other terms used in networking it would be nice to have a handy little reference to sort it all out. Well at the Tech Report someone has put together a nice little "sticky" to help out.

Forums are a very good place for hardware rumors and news. nVnews has a section dedicated to that, with several posts regarding the next chip from NVIDIA.
There is also a thread about a DigiTimes article at the Hardforum.
With the ATI X1900XTX already here this could be the last high end DirectX 9 card.
Poll - Nice Package
Is it really "what's inside that counts"? Check out this poll at Rojackpot to see if people are interested in the whole package and not just the computer part that comes with it.
