Tom's Hardware Probably the best hardware site in cyberspace.
Anand Tech First runner-up.
Maximum PC Ms. Congeniality. Actually, the website's only so-so, but we love the magazine.
Micron We put them on here 'cause they're one of our sponsors and we want to suck up to them. They also happen to make really great computers.
PalmPilot.Org News, reviews and discussion about our favorite handheld.
Mr. Driver A search engine of device drivers for Windows, OS/2, DOS and Linux.
USB Workshop Everything you ever wanted to know about USB but didn't have the time to scour the Web for. Reviews, buyer's guide, USB news: it's all here.
Dick Perron's Hardware Information Page "Guru site" with tons of links to hardware manufacturers' sites, pages on individual systems and components, DIY pages, legacy systems and more.
Silicon Sam's Technology Resource An absolutely incredible collection of repair FAQs for consumer electronics, computer components and household appliances.
Biomorph Interactive Desks More sucking up to our sponsors. But again, we sought these people out in the first place 'cause we thought they made killer computer furniture. Now that they help make Street Tech possibly, we *really* like their furniture!
