Boy, these things are really becoming a dime a dozen. It's good though.

Back on track, I have one word: I want this SSD.

Hah... I am not too sure I'd be that trusting of someone who can't even get the OS they're an "expert" at correct.

It's been rumored that Apple would be holding a media event this month to launch the third iteration of the iPad, but according to sources close to the folks at AllThingsD, it'll actually be March when it happens. At this point, no specs have been finalized about the device, though it's been...

Haha, that was the first thing I noticed. $500? That thing is worth $200, and that's "just because" it's a computer. Give me a netbook or ultrabook any day for that kind of money.

Own a TRENDnet IP camera? You'll want to head over to the company's support section to see if there is an update available for your product, as a severe security vulnerability has been discovered in select models. So severe, in fact, that anyone who has access to your IP camera's IP address can...

In a bit of surprising news, Canonical via its mailing list has announced that it will cease support for its Kubuntu distribution after 12.04 ships in April. Jonathan Riddel, Kubuntu's previous maintainer, stated in his e-mail that Canonical is preferring to treat Kubuntu much like other leading...

Regarding the add-in connector, I look at it this way. Some people might want to add this thing to an HTPC, or a PC in general that already has a lot of hard drives hooked up. With this adapter, it could allow some people the ability of mounting the drive in a non-conventional spot, such as...

Votes are on! The 14th Annual Independent Games Festival (IGF) has opened its finalists games for public voting. From this procedure the prestigious IGF Audience Award will be delivered to the game with more votes. Gamers and indie developers alike can vote for any of the 28 finalist games in...

It could prove useful depending on your cable routing, but it is an interesting inclusion nonetheless.

SandForce is back in town and it's here to stay. Intel's 520 Series is a full replacement for the 510 Series, but utilize the SF-2281 controller and custom Intel firmware to deliver one of the best SSDs we seen to date. If you already want an Intel SSD but don’t know which to get, we can answer...

With the upcoming update, I'm curious to see how good these things become. I was tempted in the past to pick one up, but I am so tied into Android, I'd hate to move a platform that has none of the apps I've ever purchased (and for the most part, aren't available on BlackBerry to begin with)...

Micron Technology's Board of Directors has released a statement announcing the death of the company's CEO, Steven Appleton. Mr. Appleton, 51, died earlier today as the result of a crash in a small plane in Boise, Idaho - the city where Micron's headquarters is located. The statement is brief...

Futuremark is well known in the gaming community, but not for its games. Better known for its benchmarks such as 3D Mark, it's proving itself capable of more than just synthetic tests. Shattered Horizons was its first foray into making games back in 2009. Keeping the space theme but moving back...

I'm sure it'd come as a surprise to almost no one that a countless number of Facebook profiles are fake, but to help put things into perspective, the folks over at Barracuda Networks did some research to see just how bad the problem has become. The company has also put together a simple...

Yup, it's ridiculous. Egypt's PM looks to have disbanded the Egyptian FA, and FIFA is looking into matters to see just how something like this could happen. The fact that people were able to get in with knives might be the first place to look...

Oh, right. I wrote this post up the night before we had that convo, so I am surprised I didn't think of it at the time. RAID is indeed a bit of a different story, but I do believe access times comes into play also. Even if it's a sequential transfer (it almost never is perfect), latencies can...

When was that? A convo on the forums, or between you and I? I do think that time is coming soon... perhaps in less than a year. We can already see some SSDs going on sale for close to $1/GB, and with the move to 28nm, we should see $0.80/GB or even less become the norm. All I can say about...

I couldn't survive on a notebook... I just couldn't. Notebooks are just too cramped and uncomfortable. It might not matter much for those who don't do a ton of work on them, but I don't think you fall into that camp, so I am rather impressed that you don't feel the need for a desktop. I love...

A popular trend happening with MMO gaming today is to either launch a title as free-to-play (F2P) from the get go, and to transition a failing pay-to-play into a free-to-play one. The latter fate struck one of my favorite MMORPGs this past December, Lineage II, and it's certainly not alone. In...
