Apple to setle in Pittsburgh
the register
notes that Apple seems to be looking for places to put their retail stores in Pittsburgh. Better a Pittsburgh than a Pitbull, right?

CPU news
Shacknews
reports that both AMD and Intel are about to release their next speed step, 1.33GHz for the Athlon and 1.7GHz for the P4 respectively. Of course you won't be able to pay either one initially.

Burn even faster
the register
is not talking about Pentiums or Athlons, no they are reporting on a new and insanely fast CD-RW drive from Yamaha with the following specs: 20/10/40x. Amazing, isn't it?

Mac OS X on Intel: no
MacObserver
has posted what I think is the first article on Mac OS X on Intel that does not say it should be done, it would be cool, better, etc etc, but instead takes a look at the issues and the consequences such a massive change would bring. I knew I can't be the only one who thinks like that.
However: Linux is not an Unix variant, it's a Unix derivate, but only few people actually know that.

Marathon Rubicon
a huge add-on or stand-alone version for Marathon Infinity/Aleph One has been released and is most certainly going to win the hearts of many veteran Marathon players.
