A Walkabout in SLS (25-3-2006) - Planet NVIDIA's launch weekend! AMD Athlon 64 FX-60 & the cheapest wireless optical mouse ever
Over at Fuwell, we've spotted the absolute fastest in AMD's line of CPUs. The AMD Athlon 64 FX-60 is now available there, at an eye popping price tag of $ 1899. Remember, you're getting a Dual Core CPU, that runs at 2.6GHz, with multipliers unlocked totally both upwards and downwards. Those we've found are of a pretty recent batch, made this year, on the 8th week.
Following the packaging of the previous Athlon FX line of silver packaging, the FX-60 follows the tradition.
For those interested, here's a snapshot of the CPU complete with all it's markings.
At Bell systems, we've spotted the absolute cheapest wireless optical mouse ever. The Microsoft Wireless Optical Mouse is going for only $ 29, making it cheaper then some basic optical wired mouse! Although it doesn't have any top end optical sensor engines to boasts about, but hey, it's not even $ 30 for a wireless mouse! Not to mention, it even comes with Microsoft's special tilt scroll wheel that allows horizontal tilting - great for frequent spreadsheet users.
The mouse that we're talking about. Yes, this package is only for $ 29.
A close up on the label, with some information on the mouse.
Seems like this mouse is able to last 3 times longer then other wireless mice in terms of battery life. Not bad at all.
