HIR Issue 8: Informative Resources
Web sites that carry a lot of cool information:
Overclocker's WorkBench: http://overclocking.webking.com
This site contains a lot of information about how to overclock many types of motherboards and processors. It also has a hilarious page on building a water-cooling system for Socket 7 processors, out of the heat sink from the CPU Fan. I guess it would work, but it'd take a lot of balls.
newOrder http://neworder.box.sk
NewOrder is a hacker site with loads of great information, files and other stuff. They Do have some information on Carding and Virii, which we don't really condone, but overall, it's a great little place.
Overview of media technology http://www.sel.sony.com/SEL/rmeg/mediatech/overview.html
This page contains some explanatory info on how different media operates (magnetic, CD-Rom, and CD-Recordable). It leaves out CD-Re-writeable, which I'm mildly interested in, but all in all, the info is short and to the point. too bad it all ends up being a media fair for Sony.
CD Standards http://www.km.philips.com/laseroptics/sdt_001.htm
While it doesn't contain a whole lot of data of it's own, it shows what different "books" each standard for CD-Style storage is in. (CD-Rom, photodisk, DVD, etc)
DefCon 7.0 http://www.defcon.org
This is the definitive guide to all things DefCon. Ride share page links, graphical Defcon Web page logos (Axon has one in there!), and lists of speakers and events are all online. The Hotel info is also there (and I think they're taking reservations!)
