    Jack Layton Dead at 61

    I admit this came as a major shock to me. He took time off work just a month ago to tackle whatever cancer was discovered, and a month later, it got the better of him :-/ RIP, Jack.

    Logitech's G300 Ambidextrous Gaming Mouse Looks to Impress at $40

    If you've been on the lookout for a new gaming mouse, it might be worth waiting another month or so for the release of Logitech's G300, announced late last week. In both looking at the photos and the specifications, the G300 looks to be one of the better gaming mice released in the past year or...

    Windows 8 Could Require Internet Access for Continued Use

    It's no secret that one of the most pirated pieces of software is the entire Windows OS, and if not for the fact that a Windows license is forced on consumers more often than not with the purchase of a desktop or notebook PC, the number of non-legal users could be at unfathomable levels. Piracy...

    The Greatest Graphics Cards of All Time

    I've been a PC user almost all my life, but up until about ten years ago, I never had an extreme interest in PC hardware, focusing more on software and games. I am not sure what clicked inside me and made me develop a keen interest in hardware, but like most enthusiasts, I retain a mental list...

    Cooler Master Silencio 550 Mid-Tower Chassis Review

    In developing a chassis, companies like Cooler Master have to decide whether the focus will be on cooling or noise, because it's extremely difficult to have a chassis excel in both. The Silencio 550 proves this, because while it becomes the quietest chassis we've ever tested, it comes at the...

    When a cat jumps on IRC

    Haha, it's to be expected. How could I compete? :D To be honest, I am not sure. The rescue league where my sister got them told them absolutely nothing about things like that :-/

    HP Pulls Plug on its WebOS Products; Making Changes to its PC Business

    In a surprising move, HP has announced that it's cancelling all of its WebOS products, including the Pre and TouchPad, and is unsure of what to do with the OS itself. As someone who has had a keen interest in WebOS due to its openness and overall potential, this news is a bit upsetting, and to...

    25 Foods We'll Never Be Able to Eat Again

    We've already talked about one "Top 25" list today, so how about another? This one isn't tech-related, but hey, it's Friday, and it's one a lot of us can relate to. It lists 25 foods that we'll never be able to eat again, as they either failed in the market or were pulled for some other reason...

    Top 25 Epic Deaths in PC Gaming

    A lot of people might not admit it, but I'm willing to bet that deep down, we all have a soft spot for epic or hilarious deaths in video games. Well, at least I do. Be it falling accidentally off of a cliff or getting hit by a car when crossing the street, I can't help but snicker. Heck, some...

    Enermax Aurora Lite Ultra-Thin Keyboard Review

    As most of our staff consists of avid PC gamers, we tend to review a fair number of peripherals to suit that style. But with a look at Enermax's Aurora Lite keyboard, we're pretty well going in the opposite direction. It doesn't feature a bunch of gimmicks, but rather focuses on delivering a...

    First Impressions: From Dust

    Yes, that is true to an extent. This is a $15 game though, so I didn't expect it to be quite as epic as Another World was. You know Ubisoft though... anything to make a quick buck. I still plan to play through it and review it though. Might not be the meatiest game out there, but with a...
