From our front-page news: If you're concerned about your computer's level of security, which would be a good idea, then chances are you take a fair amount of precaution with how you handle your everyday tasks. You likely also run various pieces of software that protect you against malware and...

With Intel's Lynnfield launch right around the corner, let's kick off our coverage with a look at one of Gigabyte's launch P55 boards, the P55-UD5. A mainstream model, the UD5 features enough connectivity to totally fill up your chassis with components, a smart design and for what could be...

It's very common to believe that slavery is a thing of the past, but research proves (depending on where you look) that while slavery may not be so noticeable today, it certainly isn't gone. There's an article/interview posted over at AlterNet which interviews Benjamin Skinner, a man who spent...

From our front-page news: Just the other day, I was pondering the question, "What's up with NVIDIA lately?", so it was with great amusement when I spotted an article at Loyd Case's site, Improbable Insights, which asked that very question. It's good to know I'm not alone in my thinking, because...

From our front-page news:From a technical standpoint, Sony's PlayStation 3 is the most capable game console on the market right now, thanks in part to its robust Cell processor that features seven fast cores - four more than Microsoft's Xbox 360. Of course, comparisons like these are too simple...

Hi Unregistered: I contacted Logitech, but they just told me to go to http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/595/&cl=us,en and get official support. I honestly have no idea if any Bluetooth dongle could be used, but I don't see why not. All of the information is stored in the gamepad after all, not...

Have just $100 to splurge on a new graphics card? Is having low power consumption and low temperatures important to you? If so, the HD 4770 certainly deserves your attention. This budget card handled each one of our games at 1920x1080 just fine, overclocks like a dream and has power and temp...

For 22", you're likely going to be running 1680x1050, correct? If so, the GTX 275 should suit you just fine. No need to go higher if 1680x is all that's going to be run, even in the 3D mode.

From our front-page news: If there's one area in technology that's moving at an unbelievable pace, it's with solid-state disks. It seems that with each day that passes, we're seeing drives that are faster, larger in size, and more affordable. While we haven't quite hit a point where SSDs can be...

From our front-page news: Whenever I see a new version of one of my commonly-used applications become available, I'll download without putting too much thought into it. Sometimes, I don't even look to see what's new feature-wise. After all, there's more than just features that come to new...

That's what bugs me when people post these kinds of things and don't explain it at all. I mean, surely, if you put 1,500 hours into something, you could say a little bit more than, "1500 hours of moving legobricks and take photos of them."? I'm led to believe that all of it is done with lego...

From our front-page news: As I was cleaning up around my desk last night, I unsurfaced a disc I almost forgot about... one that Intel included with all the Lynnfield reviewer's kits that were sent out. The software is called "Intel High Definition Experience & Performance Ratings Test", or...

From our front-page news:What will 1,500 hours, a lot of Lego blocks and excellent video skills get you? This video answers that question. I recommend clicking play and then clicking again anywhere in the video to go straight to YouTube to watch in HD... it's well-worth the extra bandwidth...

From our front-page news: Last week, site faithful madstork91 and I were talking and got on the topic of MMORPG's. To be more precise, we were talking about what games are popular now, which were popular then, and which game out there has the potential to grow fast upon release. So, that got me...

You didn't hit a nerve, at least with me, but I strongly feel that some of your comments are a little exaggerated and really give off the wrong idea about Linux. If gaming wasn't important, and people had no need for things like Office and Photoshop, Linux wouldn't be considered such an outcast...

Well, with the beta having gone on for a while, I'm not sure I'd be too concerned, but, this is almost a complete re-write, so it might be wise. For $29 USD though, I think a lot of people are going to have a hard time holding back.

Haha! That's great.

I'm jealous of the temps Bill reaches in his basement ;-) I can only dream of that here. To be honest, I am not sure if HTML is set to work for regular users, but to create a degree sign, the code is: & deg ; Don't space them out... I just had to here because it would have become a degree sign.

That's true of course, but it comes down to both appearance and other things. Mice with trackballs are not appealing to look at, and they have their own downsides, such as dirt and the like. It is rather funny that you mention it though. It's an old technology, but has beat out new technology in...

Just to be clear, when I tested memory configurations in that article, the CPU clock was not changed. That's part of the fun of Core i7... the ability to adjust memory speeds without touching the CPU. When that article was posted, we were testing with pretty common kits, but the landscape has...
