Computers

The Keyboard Connection - A site containing reviews and information for keyboard connoisseur (true geeks :).
Ars Technica - A well run hardware site. One of the more useful features are the buyer's guides (which recommend various hardware components for anyone interested in assembling their own PC).
Sharky Extreme - An often updated site with lots of useful information.
Tom's Hardware Guide - A good site concerning PC performance and hardware tweaks.

Linux Systems Labs - A Linux-oriented site offering substantial discounts on software and books.

Action Quake2! - An extremely fun mod for Quake 2.
Gamecenter - A source of game news, demos, and product reviews.
Gamers eXtreme - A nice source of game news.
GameSpot - Yet another source of game news, demos, and reviews.
NetHack - In my opinion, one of the coolest computerized role-playing games ever. I haven't seen any other game contain as much depth of play as this game has.
XEvil - A sidescrolling kill-everything-you-see type of game. Not for wussies.
Xpilot - A very cool multiplayer space war game for X windows.

CNN Interactive - A well done site from Mr. Turner's empire.
the ONION - An unusually funny "news" site. Stay away if you're easily offended.

Hardware.PairNET.com - A choice site, offering links to the latest computer hardware news.
NEWS.COM - Rewritten wire feed?
PC Magazine - Somewhat useful at times (if you're into advertiser-driven media).
Slashdot.org - A pro-Linux news site with good coverage.

Scott Duff - He (and Pat) introduced me to the Web and HTML in the first place (along with Linux and Perl), so I guess I should like, put a link to his page, eh?
HERMANN HATES Web Archives - Read this stuff. Its funny.
Sniper Country - Happiness is a confirmed kill!
School Sucks - Having trouble with that paper? Before you pull an all-nighter, why not look here...

AltaVista - Digital's too-much-crap (at times) search engine.
ComputerESP - Shopping for new computer equipment? Try this computer product "street" price search engine first.
Price Watch(TM) - Another "street" price search engine. Although a slower and less-attractive site than ComputerESP, it offers a nice second-opinion. Be forewarned though, they don't police the input prices as well as ComputerESP.
Yahoo! - Do you get excited easily?
