To be deadly honest with you, the Australian Game Developers Conference which was held over this past weekend at the Melbourne Convention Center was not all that exciting for a strictly hardware junkie like myself.
However... for an Australian conference, it was very good to see large companies such as Intel, AMD, nVidia, Microsoft, Sony and Creative in your backyard all putting some dollars back into the industry for the benefit of future game development in our good country down under.
While we did not see it necessary to post any formal coverage, throughout the weekend we did learn a few things of interest for us hardware folks, obviously though much of it was focused toward the gaming industry with no ground-breaking new juicy hardware news to feed you folk with.
So without further ado, here is some of the interesting bit and pieces I found @ ADGC 2002.

nVidia bring beautiful Dawn to our shores!new video footage of both the Dawn and Ogre demos for your viewing pleasure. To view these AVI files, you will need to download the latest DivX codec from the DivX website.
You can download both videos here from our servers:
- Video #1 (Dawn) (10.1mb)
- Video #2 (Ogre) (6.7mb)
UPDATE - New Download Mirrors
Overclockers Australia were kind enough to mirror both of these videos...
- Video #1 (Dawn) from OCAU (10.1mb)
- Video #2 (Ogre) from OCAUConclusion
