PC Review News Edition - 28-07-2004

[Ian]

We now have the Tour of Disklabs Data Recovery published on the site, following on from our Hard Drive Data Recovery Guide. The tour was a great experience, and I learnt plenty of interesting things about hard drives in general.

The How to choose a Web Host article has also been published, which will hopefully guide some readers in the right direction when choosing a web host. If you have any questions about a hosting package you are considering, please post it in the Forum to get some feedback.

The best of the web news:

• Microsoft attack worm rides on the back of MyDoom - The Register
• Kingston DataTraveler 2.0 Hi-Speed - Viper Lair
• Apple iPod Mini 4GB - Design Technica
• LG GSA-4120B Multi-Format DVD Writer - Hardware Zone
• id Software's Official DOOM3 Benchmarks - Hard OCP
• AMD Sempron Introduction - Anandtech
• Memory Timings Explained - CoolTechZone
• ATI Interview with Andrew Dodd - VR Zone

There are going to be a few little tweaks to the site over the coming weeks, mainly a better way to find the popular areas of the site with a "site map", and also the introduction for anyone to add reviews to a new section. Muckshifter also has a new article which will be published in the coming days, explaining all you need to know on upgrading your PC.

You may have noticed a new section on the site already, the Computing News section. This is a data feed from other large technology sites, providing snippets of all the latest news stories as they happen!
