In many ways, the Apple iPhone is similar to the iPod including the need to be charged and sync via USB and electrical outlet. The iPhone ships with a charging/sync cable that is similar in appearance to cable that accompanies many of the newer iPods. Unlike most iPod connectors, the iPhone's connector cable does not include tension clips. However, there is no other physical difference between the iPhone and iPod's sync/charging connectors. Both can be used interchangeably.

Not everyone is building computers to sit on their desktop or next to their table, some of us are actually building computer to record and watch Television with it. When we do, we need a power supply that is far quieter than the normal ones and that is where the Zalman ZM 600 HP 600 watt Heatpipe Cooled Power Supply comes into play.

The best thing about indie games nowadays though is the way they are spreading to other systems and are being encouraged by some of the major developers, like Microsoft.

Microsoft in particular is going crazy for indie developers and cheaply giving away support and assets to indie game makers who want to sign up to the XNA Creators Club. Doing so allows designers to create their own games, with the hope of distributing them on Xbox Live and becoming the next Geometry Wars.

But Microsoft isn't alone in the way it is encouraging indie developers.

Nintendo too is eager to entice bedroom-based game designers to the Wii and is encouraging developers to make 'WiiWare' games which will build on the unique and lower-end appeal of the Wii as a console.

The In-Win Mt Jade/BK623 Tiny tower case is a mATX slim form factor chassis that is just half the size of many desktop mATX PCs. This case is designed to work with micro ATX-sized motherboard and full height audio and video cards. The chassis uses Partition Plate cooling technology, which separates the CPU fan from the heatsink to reduce back draft. With this design no case fan is needed which means better acoustic performance. Read on to see if this case is what you need!

Neither of these heatsinks are outright cheaper than the competition, but they are both available around the ?30 mark - this is certainly a viable cost to anyone looking for a performance cooler. The MaxOrb is on the right side of that ?30 depending where you shop and offers a marginally better performance, although it is physically larger. But does that matter? It still fits on every board we tried it on and even though the mounting is a bit of a hassle at first, once the clips are on/screws are in, it's job done in five minutes. Pop the kettle on and have a brew waiting for when you've finished.

The V1 has more intuitive and accessible clips, whereas the Orb needs clips and a screw retention, but the beauty of the MaxOrb is that the retention clips don't need forcefully pushing into the motherboard because they are just used to mount the surrounding plate.

All in all, set the fan to medium-low and both will cool fantastically well for a very reasonable investment of around ?30. Both provide a great cooler for the investment, but the MaxOrb simply looks great in a case and despite being a pain to install, once in, it performs better than the V1 with a similar amount of (low) noise.

Saitek which is one of the leading computer peripheral companies has introduced a wireless mouse with some interesting features. This rechargable mouse with a 1000dpi resolution has replaced the scroll wheel with a touch sensitive strip. Will these features prove to be useful or a distraction? Read our review to find out.
