    Portal 2 Review

    After the major success that the original Portal experienced, Valve was no doubt under intense pressure to deliver a sequel that could live up to the hype it's been receiving, if not surpass it. Fortunately, for those who've been patiently awaiting its release, Portal 2 delivers on almost...

    Me PC!!

    That is a great idea. I use canned air when I need it, but the stuff is so expensive and doesn't last long enough for me to do an effective enough job, heh.

    Apple to Launch iPhone 5 in September?

    The launch of Apple's iPhone 5 looks to be a little bit different than previous iterations, for one simple reason: it'll be launched in the fall. At least, if current rumors are proven true. It does seem a bit unusual for Apple to push the launch months ahead of the summer, where it's usually...

    Zalman Z9 Plus Mid-Tower Chassis Review

    It's been a good two-and-a-half years since we've taken a look at a Zalman chassis, so with the announcement of the ~$69 Z9 Plus, we were eager to get one in and see how it compared to the current fleet of sub-$100 offerings on the market. With that, let's see what the Z9 Plus gives us aside...

    North Sea Jazz 2010 in Rotterdam, Holland

    Why is it I always miss the updates in this thread? My reminder is seeing you around the forums :D I will take a look at those tracks soon, but here's one I've been meaning to post for you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXV0pQhImRk

    Portal 2 Released to Mixed Reaction

    I've actually been playing with Greg, and for your sake I wouldn't want to "ruin" the game for you since I'll know how to beat all of the levels. I'd HIGHLY recommend you play with a good friend to have the most fun, since you experience it together. I can't imagine playing with some random...

    After Western Digital acquired Hitachi's storage division last month, many were speculating that Seagate would begin shopping around for its own company to acquire, and it has. Today, both Seagate and Samsung have announced a partnership that sees the former opening up its wallet, but both...

    Portal 2 Released to Mixed Reaction

    After weeks of being teased with various trailers, Portal 2 was finally released late last night - but to mixed reaction. Around the Web, every review I've seen has awarded the game very handsomely, with a couple of perfect scores, and the lowest being 9.3/10. For PC games, seeing scores this...

    Rounding out its Radeon HD 6000 series, AMD this month launched three sub-$100 graphics cards; the $55 HD 6450; the $79 HD 6570 and the $99 HD 6670. Despite being low-end options, all three support Eyefinity and are of course, extremely power efficient. Let's see if they also have the gaming...

    Comcast Offers 105Mbit/s Internet Package; Spoils it with Data Cap

    It's useless except to those who download and seed torrents ;-) For what it's worth, I've achieved 11MB/s speeds downloading from MIcrosoft's servers in the past, so it is possible, but like you said, it's going to be hard to saturate the link most often. It'd sure be nice to see those bursts...

    Nintendo Rumored to Announce Wii Successor in Weeks Ahead

    As long as it doesn't use motion, I'd be stoked to see that. I really need to go back to Zelda for the Wii and clear it. The motion ended up getting on my nerves so much that I just shelved it.

    GIGABYTE Aivia M8600 Wireless Gaming Mouse Review

    Finding a good gaming mouse isn't hard, but finding one that's wireless is. Even high-end options suffer from a major flaw: poor battery life. GIGABYTE realizes this and made sure no one could say that about its Aivia M8600, which in our tests lasted an entire week in 'gaming' mode. Let's...

    Disable the Grouping of Similar Taskbar Items in Windows 7

    Are you sure you understand the issue? "Never Combine" is for stacking more than one like application into the same taskbar entry, not the issue I laid out in the news post.

    Here are a couple from me. Because I'm using Ubuntu 11.04 as much as possible for the next couple of weeks, I have three OSes on the go!
