In order to effectively market and sell your company's product, it would greatly help if everyone in the company truly stood behind it. After all, if actual employees have little interest, then why should a consumer? Well in the case of LifeLock, CEO Todd Davis was so confident in his...

Solid-state may be the future of our storage, but for now, the prices for the latest SSD's (even value models) is still far too high on the $/GB scale. For those looking for mass storage and still-great speeds, mechanical storage is still on top, and WD's latest VelociRaptor's, which utilize...

After I posted our Eyefinity article, I decided to get back to testing, but a different kind of testing. One thing a lot of people don't realize is that multi-monitor gaming doesn't just give you a bigger game, but more game. We'll be posting a small article based around this soon, but since I...

Welp, Valve's Mac-based Steam client has been out for just over a week, and so far, things seem to have been going well. There have been reports of a couple issues related to SteamPlay for those who already own a particular title (Civilization IV in particular), and others seem to be...

Pac-Man, the lovable character that looks like a yellow pizza with a slice or two missing, turns 30 tomorrow. In the early 1980's, the original Pac-Man game hit the arcades and caught on fast, and became one of the most played games at the time and for years to follow. Not bad for a game...

As our games continue to become even more robust, it would seem likely that having more memory available to the GPU would prove useful, but are we soon to see 2GB cards become commonplace? After many completed tests with Sapphire's Radeon HD 5870 Vapor-X 2GB, we're having a hard time settling on...

Today's desktop motherboards are more robust than ever, but have you ever purchased one and later regretted you didn't opt for one with a greater feature-set? Yeah, probably not. But if you have, and that extra feature-set includes Quad-SLI, then ASUS' ROG "Xpander" might be just for you...

I went to download Bad Religion's latest live album last night (free!) and I found this bit quite humorous: "If Your Download Doesn't Appear, Upgrade Your Browser" If only other download sites were so brutally honest :D

In today's console war (wait, there's still a console war?), one of the biggest arguments PlayStation fans make against the Xbox is that the latter charges a monthly (or yearly) fee to access its online service - or to be more specific, play online with friends. Given that this is fact...

Well, this news is a little bit upsetting. The folks at [H]ard|OCP have obtained a press release from BFG Tech that states its going to be ceasing production of its graphics cards... but, will still continue to deliver and develop both its power supplies, gaming desktops and notebooks...

When you're excited for any sort of product, whether it be a game, piece of software, or heck, even something like a car, do you fervently read previews as if they're going out of style? Chances are you do, not because it's common (though I'm sure it is), but because it's informative and...

With the release of Valve's Steam client for the Mac last week, Apple gamers all over found themselves with renewed hope that their gaming lives were about to get a lot better. We've been using the client since launch and have lots to say about it, so join us in figuring out if Valve's latest...

Alright, I can't think of a worse hell than this. Imagine being put to "sleep" for a surgery of any sort, and then waking up during it, unable to move or speak. There was a recent movie based on just that premise, but I didn't realize it was so prevalent... it happens to 1 or 2 people out of...

When Apple first launched the iPad, there was mass speculation as to what was going to happen to sales of its desktops and notebooks, but as recent reports show, the company's sales continue to roll along just fine. Sales of the desktop Macs and MacBook's haven't seen a drop, but rather an...

Last week, we posted about a rumor that 3TB hard drives could be en route for delivery in 2010, and it took no time at all for one company to step up to the plate and verify it: Seagate. In talking to UK tech site THINQ, Seagate's Senior Product Manager, Barbara Craig, admitted that it would...

This comes almost as no surprise, given that the Nintendo Wii promotes real activity during gameplay, but now it's official, as the American Health Association has awarded Nintendo with the stamp of approval. Should the company choose, it could use this stamp on its retail Wii boxes and possibly...

When AMD launched its ATI Eyefinity technology, it helped redefine high-end gaming, and effectively made 2560x1600 look like child's play. In this article, we put the technology to a good test across 18 different games and on both 3x1 (5760x1080) and 3x2 (5760x2160) display configurations to see...

At the beginning of the year, Intel launched its Clarkdale and Arrandale processors, built on the Westmere micro-architecture. A couple of things made these special. One of the more important aspects was that the chip was built on a 32nm process. But secondly, and probably more interesting...

Are you able to remember the last time you had a truly good night's sleep, and woke up feeling refreshed and renewed? If it's been so long that you can't even remember, it could be that you fall asleep with a bright gadget in your face. At least, that's J.D. Moyer's theory, which he came to...
