 Root for your favourite atomican Monday, 20th June 2005 
This week Atomic brings you a world first review of the powerful and innovative ASUS EN6800 ULTRA DUAL. It's almost as big as a motherboard, and it's noisier than bloody Concorde. And that's why we love it.

Last week's Chat with a Supergeek was a winner. Our guest Supergeek George Mobbs handled the barrage well. This week sees Stage 2, where you can root for your favourite Atomican to win a ThinkPad! Check it out at www.atomicmpc.com.au/supergeek
