Actually it´s a photo of a usual 100MHz OverDrive processors for boards supporting Intel 486DX Socket 3! Therefore the prize remains with us and we just publish the photos of the complete and "covered" processor :)
Digivox announces a new universal T-IV MP3 player Digivox prepares to launch volume shipment of its new miniature Digivox T-IV MP3 player, and today we can offer you its first photos and specs.
Digivox T-IV specs:
Prescotts available by preliminary orders Just days are left until the announcement of Prescott-based Pentium 4 processors. But today we can just share with you the information provided by our French colleagues that report that Pentium 4 E are already available by preliminary orders:
The chips general features are Socket 478, 800MHz FSB, 1MB L2 cache. For you to compare here are prices for existing Pentium 4 processors:

PRO/Wireless 2200BG: a new Intel Centrino component supporting IEEE 802.11b/g Following its own roadmap, Intel introduced a new component for its Centrino platform Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG adapter supporting 802.11b and higher-speed 802.11g. Being "Wi-Fi CERTIFIED" already, Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG supports Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) and can be software upgraded to the new security standards, e.g. implied by 802.11i. Designed as a usual mini-PCI card, Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG bases on Intel´s proprietary comm and RF chips. The adapter is bundled with PROSet for Wireless software simplifying network settings and traffic management.
Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG brief specs:
The first Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG adapters are expected in Centrino-based notebooks in Q1 2004. Within these weeks such models should be presented by Japanese Fujitsu, Matsushita Electric, NEC, Sony, and Toshiba. In over 10,000-unit quantities Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG adapter will cost $25.
SiS965L: a new Southbridge with PCI-Express support SiS, continuing the development of integrated Southbridges, yesterday announced SiS965L solution with PCI-Express support. The new SiS965L Southbridge is compatible with the existing Northbridges, including SiS661FX, SiS648FX, SiS655FX, SiS655TX, SiS748, SiS755, SiS755FX, and SiS760. It provides the support of 2 x PCI-Express, 8 x USB 2.0, 8-channel audio, 10/100 LAN, 2 x Serial ATA (hot plug), and 4 x PATA.
Soltek unveils its first graphics cards on ATI GPUs The general enthusiasm of extending the list of GPU partners touched Soltek as well. Formerly only the NVIDIA partner, today Soltek unveiled its first three cards on ATI GPUs. For the sake of justice I must state that the company selected the most safe variants lower-end and cheps ATI Radeon 9600 SE (SL-9600S-PD) and ATI Radeon 9200 SE (SL-9200S-PT, SL-9200S-CT).
Brief specs:
Another mystery of our Hardware Museum Inspired by the popularity of our last riddle, Andrew Vorobyev, the Editor of our Video section and the keeper of the Hardware Museum, continued to literally uncover processor rarities. Today riddle is some easier, however I don´t think that everyone will at once recognize this chip and its clock speed. Give it a try! :-) P.S. Please mail to answers to Andrew Vorobyev.
