Cooler Master CM Storm Scout 2 Modders-Inc spent a little quality time with the Cooler Master CM Storm Scout 2 mid-tower ATX case today and came away with an overall positive impression.

The incident led to the death of a maintenance contractor who was brought in to fix a pipe leaking hydrofluoric acid gas at one of Samsung's semiconductor plants. Comments Read More ...

Scientists Build The One Million Dollar Man I'm not trying to belittle this accomplishment but shouldn't we have a billion dollar man by now? Hell, we had a six million dollar man back in the 1970s. "I was climbing better with artificial limbs than I achieved before my accident with biological limbs," he said."Technology has this extraordinary capacity to heal, to rehabilitate and even to extend human capability beyond what nature intended. "I think having normal bodies is boring...I have legs, you have shoes. If a fairy came and tapped on my shoulder and granted me a wish, would I wish my legs back? Absolutely not."
