Solar System 3D Screensaver - Have you ever dreamed
of getting a chance to see the rings of Saturn, distant Pluto, the
Asteroid Belt, Jupiter, Mars, or mother Earth from space? This
screensaver is an outstanding 3D model of the solar system. Every
planet is there along with its satellites and even a small info graph
with basic facts. All the proportions and trajectories are right. You
get to float through some of the best known constellations like the
Big Dipper and get a great view of the Milky Way. It's not only the
sheer beauty but also the educational content that makes Solar System
3D Screensaver an absolute must-have. [Download

Man, this is not bad for a run of the mill HDD case! Designed with
the average user in mind, the Alpha-Data battery-powered 2.5" HDD case
has to be one of the nicer cases out there for 2.5' drives. One

In word, Netgear. Anything with Netgear on it has from my
