Intel Core 2 Duo E2160 vs E6300: Budget CPU Comparison
"Last year Intel gave us the Core 2 Duo, a competitively priced CPU
with very acceptable prices for the low and mid-range. This year Intel
introduced newer models from low to high end, we take a look at the
new low priced E2160 model which has less L2 cache but higher
multiplier and compare it with the low end part from last year, the
E6300."

Summary:
A series of quick reference tables containing the main specs of all Core Duo and Core Solo processors released to date.
Here is a snippet:
"Core Duo (formerly known by its codename, Yonah) was the first dual-core Intel CPU targeted to the mobile market, i.e. inside it there are two complete CPUs. Curiously it was also the first Intel processor to be adopted by Apple Computer. In this tutorial we will present the main features of Core Duo and Core Solo and tables with all models released to date."
ASUS Artic Square CPU Cooler
"I like my water-cooling, and in recent years the CPU cooler market has lost it's attraction. However, I was intrigued by the design of the Arctic Square and was hopeful that it might prove to be interesting. Holding it in my hands for the first time I became more than a little concerned that it just wouldn't be able to perform all that well. It was mainly aluminium and quite light considering the size. Testing proved it to be quite the sleeper though, with load temperatures almost as low as the stock coolers idle temperatures."

Targus Desktop USB 2.0 4-port hub Review
Obviously when I'm doing a review, I am looking to see what doesn't work, if anything, along with what does work. In the case of the Targus ACH80US Desktop USB 2.0 4-port hub with Audio pass-through, there wasn't anything that didn't work. It did all that it says that it will do, and it did it easily. There was no forcing required on any of the connections, everything plugged in smoothly. All of the functions worked as they should and basically there were no surprises. With four USB 2.0 ports, two of which being "high power" for those devices needing that extra bit of juice, I can see where this hub will find many a happy home with both notebook users and PC users.
