    how do you tell if your pc has been zombified?

    This is caused by malware which is used to form a botnet. There is usually no sign about this running on your computer, because it sits there waiting for it to be activated by its creator.

    For the iPhone I definitely hope it's gonna have better reception and have its glass replaced by a stronger material. For the iPad I hope it's gonna have a higher resolution display (retina like the iPhone 4).

    old build, first build, static shock

    It are usually the little components on the motherboard who can get damaged from this. If you just hold the case with one hand, that should ground yourself properly. And yes, ATX is still the most used form factor. There are some variations to the ATX form factor, like micro-ATX. This one is...

    Code 43 problem (Win 7 32bit) with 9800GTX!

    The amount of power supplied from your PSU should be sufficient to power that graphics card, so then it's more likely that there's a problem with the card itself (Corsair has very reliable units, so it's not likely a problem with your PSU in that case).
