The God Box...It knows...
The Ars gang took some time out of their busy schedule to update their system guides. A definite read if your planning on purchasing a system soon!
Avoid the 9XXX Radeon's though if your planning on doing serious 3d "app" work.

GeForce FX 5600 Ultra Preview
Like NV30 though, NV31 is based on TSMC's 130nm process technology. With about 80 Million transistors required to facilitate the CineFX feature set in NV31's configuration, this means the chip is even more complex than NV25, and so the decrease in process size should offset the increased die size required to house all those transistors. However, at present TSMC's 130nm process is still relatively immature, despite both major graphics firms basing the mid range/volume parts on it, and its quite possible that initial NV31 chips will be more expensive to NVIDIA than the low end NV25 chips that its replacing.

Sony's New Humanoid Robot SDR-4X II
Sony introduces at the Robodex 2003 it's new version of the humanoid Robot SDR-4X. The new version SDR-4X II has improved movement functions, safety functions and conversation capabilities. The new speech processor supports continuous speech recognition with about 20,000 words. The Sony SDR-4X II is about 580x190x270mm in size and weighs about 7kg. If you want one of these little guys to entertain your next party expect to pay a price tag equal to that of a luxury car!! I think "Micro" Rosie can wait a few more years. =)
