It's of little surprise if we hear of someone getting the short end of the stick in some situation just because they're a gamer, but this is a new one. Colleen Lachowicz, a Senate hopeful from Maine, is being assaulted by her opposition for being a big fan of World of Warcraft. Now, we'll...

This is one of those times where it truly doesn't feel like an entire year has already passed, but indeed it has. On October 5, 2011, the world was taken back by the news that Apple's co-founder and innovator Steve Jobs had passed. You may recall an editorial Brett wrote which took a look at his...

It's been a long time since we reviewed anything from Edifier, but with the recent release of the Spinnaker speakers, they were hard to resist. We decided to grab the bull by the horns and take them for a spin. With an eye-catching design, puns out of the way and wireless to boot, will these...

Much to NVIDIA's angst, there haven't been too many Tegra-based phones released in the US, and whenever I've questioned the company about when things could pick up, I've never given much of a confident answer. Well, with HTC's latest announcement, we might just see things begin to pick up on the...

The launch of Motorola's RAZR i a couple of weeks ago was made interesting for the fact that it's powered by an Intel Atom (Medfield-based) processor. Since Intel phones are far and few between, I couldn't help but wonder if this would be the phone that would finally give Intel the success it...

To some, tattoos are the ultimate form of expression. Getting one takes a lot of guts, and often a strong belief in whatever the tattoo is all about. It's not all too often we see a geeky tattoo with some actual meaning, however, but the case of Megan Orsi, from Pennsylvania, is a bit of an...

It's hardly a secret that Intel is currently the most competitive CPU vendor in terms of performance, and while that might seem fine on the surface, where pricing is concerned, it's not. If you've built a PC in the past couple of years and have focused on Intel, you've likely noticed that...

Looking for a large monitor at a good price and can deal with a modest resolution? If so, AOC's just-released i2757fh might be for you. It features an IPS anti-glare panel, a ridiculously-thin 2mm bezel, 5ms response time, 50,000,000:1 contrast ratio, a brightness of 250cd/m2, built-in speakers...

Acronis has just followed-up to its award-winning PC backup software True Image, and as we're big fans of the previous versions at TG, we're taking a quick look 2013 here. This time around, Windows 8 support is introduced along with a major emphasis on cloud storage - and if nothing else, its...

AMD will be launching its Trinity APUs early next month, marking the first follow-up to its Llano release from last year. While not a high-end part like Bulldozer, AMD is touting Trinity as being a great desktop product and perfect for the HTPC. Whether or not that actually proves to be the...

If there's one thing the roll-out of 4TB hard drives has proven, it seems no vendor is interested in marketing them towards the regular consumer. That fact receives some backup today with WD's announcement of its first 4TB models, falling under the RE (loosely, 'RAID edition') branding...

I just can't get over Apple sometimes. Earlier this month, it tried to sue an online grocery store just because it had a freaking apple in the logo: http://www.webpronews.com/apple-sues-online-grocery-store-over-its-logo-2012-09 and then, Apple gets denied a patent for an orange icon with...

An interesting question is posed over at Network World today, by "Linux Tycoon" and funnyman Bryan Lunduke. Simply put, is there such thing as a "best" distro order for learning and becoming absorbed into Linux? Or rather, does the first distro you use kind of determine where you eventually end...

It's not uncommon to see the folks over at iFixit take a brand-new device and, without hesitation, disassemble it to show us what it's made of. Today, however, things are taken a bit - okay, a lot - further. They've teamed up with Chipworks, who have taken Apple's latest A6 SoC, hit it with an...

We posted a story last week where Android phones, the S III in particular, could be compromised via NFC, and this week, we have one that definitely beats it. In last week's story, the major risk was that the person who gained access could suck down all of your data, while with this...

With professionals having received their CS6 fix earlier this year, we knew it wouldn't be long before Adobe followed-up with some Elements love for those that don't need the ultimate control that their full-blown counterparts avail. The latest version of each launches today, 11, sporting what...

Cooler Master's original Scout brought a lot to the table when it was released in 2009, and for all it did right, it came highly recommended by us. Will we be left just as impressed with its sequel, the "Scout 2"? On the surface, this LAN-inspired chassis looks the part and its feature-set...
