From our front-page news: Last week, I linked to a story at TechCrunch that exposed the dangers of online game offers that target titles usually found on social networking sites, such as Facebook or MySpace. According to our RSS traffic, that news story had an abnormally large number of...

From our front-page news:If there's one single trend that's appreciated by the vast majority of people affected by it, it would have to be the one that sees our gadgets getting smaller and smaller over time. There's of course limits, but if you take a look at notebook PCs, cell phones and other...

From our front-page news: Imagine you were an executive in charge of a very successful game developer. To date, all of your games have sold incredibly well, and gamers just can't seem to get enough. The next game queued for release is a big one. One that anyone who's played any game from the...

It's no secret that the Radeon HD 5870 is the fastest GPU on the planet, but what do you get when you take it, toss in a more robust cooler, quieter operation, higher clock speeds and not one, but two free games? You get the Vapor-X, from Sapphire. Despite all that it packs in above the...

I have rather limited experience with notebook mice, but of the experience I do have, I can say that Microsoft's offerings can be a pain to deal with. I had a mouse similar to the Optical Mouse 3000 (Mobile Memory Mouse 8000), and while it would work fine some of the time, I had to fight with it...

Well, those were my pictures, so I'm the moron at fault there ;-) Good to see you around Nate, hope things are well.

It looks like he changed his mind on the shipping, but still... shipping to PAK is not going to be inexpensive. Still, you might be able to get them cheaper this way. You'd want to make sure before ordering.

That's just how it works... it's the same with Intel as well. Products will be pulled, but it's just a matter of time for the supplies to deplete before they're impossible to find. I've noticed that AMD has been on top of its product line-ups lately... it seems just as a new model is introduced...

To be honest, I didn't even realize OSS was still that relevant, so it's good to know. Once the support is added, I'll give it a shot and see how it compares with my ALSA experience.

From our front-page news: As we touched on just the other day, it's not uncommon to see companies using various forms of creative advertising to get their point across. Again, the most common example to fall back on is Apple vs. Microsoft, as the TV spots that continually poke fun at everything...

From our front-page news: Step back, and take a hard look at the business world. Where CEO's of tech companies are concerned, who first comes to mind? Of course, there are many CEO's out there whom many would consider to be invaluable to the tech industry, but there only seem to be a handful who...

From our front-page news: Although it hasn't been that long, it feels like I've been tracking the release of Thunderbird 3 forever. But, it's still in beta. As things are looking now, though, it's not going to be in that state much longer. A near-final version is expected next week, with a final...

From our front-page news: There are many out there who believe that hardware innovation has slowed down, and to some extent, it could have. Processors, graphics cards and more are continually updated with new features and faster performance, but rarely do we see anything truly innovative. On the...

From our front-page news: Want to create some incredible beats, but don't know the first thing about going about it? Ever download a DJ mixing application, like Ableton Live, FL Studio or Sony ACID Pro, but were lost at the sheer complexity of it all? The Launchpad, by Novation, looks to cater...

Bah, that sounds like awful cell service. Most of the time, we don't get much better up here though. Plus, we have the asinine charges that make me want to go mad.

It's a complicated story, because both companies continue to contradict each other, so it's hard to take a side. If NVIDIA was the one to develop the code, and AMD had no part whatsoever, than I can't say I feel too bad for AMD. But, in the end, it's unfortunate for gamers who have ATI cards in...

From our front-page news: There's an on-going war of words being exchanged between AMD and NVIDIA, and in some cases, also Eidos and Rocksteady, regarding the recent PC hit, Batman: Arkham Asylum. The story surfaced well before the game's launch, but spread like wildfire when it became available...

From our front-page news: When the recession hit last fall, or even earlier based on some opinions, retailers didn't know what to do. It's not too often that most of us are affected by something all at once. The reality hit most people that money is important, and shopping sprees aren't. So...

From our front-page news: In what should please up-and-coming game developers everywhere, Epic today announced the release of the "Unreal Development Kit", a full-blown toolset based around Unreal Engine 3, for free. That's right... the same tools that were used to develop such games as Batman...

Going forward, would you mind not quoting the entire post, but rather just a paragraph? It takes up a lot of space in people's browsers when the entire post is found twice in the same thread. I agree with you though. When Ubuntu first came out, I couldn't stand it. I couldn't understand the...
