    SteelSeries' Sensei Gaming Mouse Packs a Real Punch

    "Feature-packed" is a term we often use to describe products that offer a lot of features and lack nothing, but there may be no product more deserving of that description than SteelSeries' Sensei 'pro-grade' gaming mouse. It's identical in design to the award-winning Xai, but has a much greater...

    Intel Will Not Include CPU Coolers with Sandy Bridge-E Models

    I'm not sure that's fair to assume though. From what I understand, Intel offers some of the best support in the business, at least from what I've read in the past.

    Apple Begins Selling Mac OS X 'Lion' USB Thumb Drive

    In a quick bit of Apple news, the Cupertino company has just released a thumb drive variant of its Mac OS X 'Lion' operating system, allowing those who would rather forgo the download-only option to do just that. Kicking things off with last year's MacBook Air model, Apple decided to get rid of...

    From Dust

    Is anyone here planning on picking this game up when it gets released? I am not generally a fan of god games, but this one looks like it's fairly easy to get into. It also has one of the coolest game engines I've ever seen, allowing you to literally sculpt the earth that you're working with. I'm...

    Typical Windows irony...

    Haha, it doesn't surprise me per se, but I did get a good laugh out of it :D Oh yes, external dock. Blame Thermaltake for using the same name across multiple product-lines ;-) Best enclosure I've ever owned though, I love it. That chassis did kind of intrigues me though; how is it? I must...

    Intel Will Not Include CPU Coolers with Sandy Bridge-E Models

    When Intel launched its Sandy Bridge CPU line-up earlier this year, it released a large collection of models in order to leave as few gaps in the price-ranges as possible, and as long as you weren't looking for a true high-end product, there was little to complain about (ahem, perhaps aside from...

    Typical Windows irony...

    The 2TB hard drive I have in my Thermaltake BlacX has been known as I:\ for as long as I've had it, but for some reason, Windows decided to change that drive letter to G:\, effectively messing up a couple of programs that rely on I:\. So, I went into the drive management section to change it...

    Installing Gentoo on a Notebook in 2011

    Gentoo got mentioned in the latest DistroWatch Weekly, so I naturally read that section first. There, my good friend Susan Linton got props for an article she wrote on the latest Gentoo Live CD, and just before I could think, "Oh, good for her.", I noticed my name in the next paragraph...

    Google to Acquire Motorola Mobility for $12.5 Billion

    Not respecting the fact that some people like to kick off their Monday slowly to help get themselves into a groove for the rest of the work week, Google's CEO Larry Page announced via the company's official blog its plans to acquire Motorola Mobility for a healthy $12.5 billion. This, my...

    Bing Beats Out Google in Search Effectiveness

    Google has been in the search engine business longer than most, and compared to the likes of Microsoft and Yahoo!, it has dedicated far more effort into making its own product the best it can be. To call that a smart move would be an understatement, because Google's search engine business gained...

    Why Won't Nintendo Develop for Mobile Platforms?

    Given the massive popularity of mobile gaming today, doesn't it seem a bit odd that the company with some of the most iconic video game characters around are seemingly ignoring it? After all, with the average iPhone gamer spending about 15 hours per month gaming on the go, why wouldn't Nintendo...

    Intel Rolls Out Three More 'Upgradeable' Processors

    Last September, Intel rolled out its first-ever 'upgradeable' desktop processor, Pentium G6951, and since then, the company has kept quiet about its potential successes or follow-up products. Given this, and also the fact that the G6951 and idea behind it was rather controversial, it lead many...

    Counter-Strike: Global Offensive announced!

    *speechless* http://store.steampowered.com/app/1800/ I have not played CS in years, but sunk hundreds of hours into Source after it became available. I'm hoping that GO will manage to rekindle my interest in the series. Who's with me?

    HP Pavilion G6 with linux advise (remove w7 bad idea?)

    If there's a sticker found over top the screw that allows you to remove the hard drive, then chances are it -might- void your warranty. Likewise, if a Linux OS is being used, then chances are support will give you a hard time, since it's not the OS that came with it. However, neither of these...
