The big Microsoft stock scam? Judge for yourself. Supposedly, Microsoft isn't worth as much as it's valued at.

Since posting my review of Psion's new Revo, I've received a ton of questions about the device. I've put together a FAQ for your reading enjoyment in hopes of quelling some of your curiosity.

Reader Comments
Good news on the $100 off ValueAmerica deal--it still works, and works well--multiple times. Plus, comments on the Athlon motherboard petition, AOL's Gateway.net takeover, and Orb rises again.

PDAGeek
In today's blurb we talk about some new Springboards for the Visor, some new PDA reviews on the 'Net and a new Revo site that's coming online.

Our latest installment of comments in the PalmOS vs. WinCE battle. To keep it interesting, we've got some pro-CE ones and a thought-provoking vote for the Visor.

We got a whole batch of new pictures from the creator of the MP3 Miata, powered by Palm--there's even a pic of the author. Read the article again and check out the setup.

Support the Athlon motherboard petition, a roundup of Coppermine reviews, Micron's $20 billion deal, and price drops on the Athlon.

UGeek Spotlight
One of the common experiences all Geeks go through is when friends, family members, and random people on the street who find out you know things about computers ask you what kind of computer they should buy. Instead of having to spend 25 minutes explaining everything from IDE vs. SCSI to DVD-ROM vs. CD-ROM, send your friends to UGeek's How To: section. It's got comprehensive info with hardware/software suggestions and the basic information everyone needs to know to get themselves a quality computer.

Now you can spec and buy a PC from UGeek. We've worked a deal with SAG Electronics to have our own system configurator, including a UGeek T-shirt with each purchase. Check it out!
NOW AVAILABLE: 700 MHz Pentium III, TNT2 Ultra, Matrox G400 Max dual-head, and Ultra2 SCSI drives.

The UGeek T-shirt is still available for only US$12. Buy one to show your Geek pride!
