Bah, that sucks! We had one here last year, but I also missed it for some reason. Didn't have the proper glasses for viewing. It was really short though... nothing like the 6m long one here.

Well, that should be the case. It's not your place to go dig up bodies for your own gain. I couldn't imagine needing or wanting money so bad that I'd ever consider something so bizarre.

We've taken a look at an almost countless number of computer cases over the years, but the X-Fighter is unlike many of them in various ways. The most noticeable feature is its design, which is very sci-fi inspired. Past that, there's been a lot of thought gone into the chassis' cooling-ability...

From our front-page news: People love to hate a lot of things, and in the browser world, it's Internet Explorer 6. The hatred isn't unfounded though, and even non-techy Internet surfers understand just how much it's lacking. I found this out in a big way late last week when my brother, who in no...

From our front-page news:If I had to work anywhere in China, the last place I'd consider a job at would be Foxconn. Over the years, there have been a few stories of what the demands on their employees are like, and it really came to the forefront three years ago when the company was accused of...

From our front-page news:During our meeting with EVGA at last month's Computex, one product on display that really caught my eye was a GTX 285. Of course, since that particular model had been available for three months at that point, it wasn't the card itself that was impressive, but rather the...

When I saw the headline, "Cemetery whistle-blower: 'I ain't a hero'", I wasn't about to ignore it. As it turns out, the story isn't quite as interesting as I expected it could have been, but it's certainly a bit sick. It appears that some employees of a cemetery in Chicago were planning to dig...

That's the thing. For some reason, I used to drink a lot of them... at least one a day. Then I started to have stomach pains, and although I'm not sure if it was related, I assumed it was, so I stopped. There are many deaths that are obviously related to overindulging yourself with those, so...

I live in east coast Canada, so I am nowhere near it. I'm so jealous of those who could see it though. How was it man?

See, that's what I'd love to know as well. Although I've dabbled in coding before, I'm in no way experienced in understanding the mechanics, although I wish I were. It's something I'll have to talk to a few companies or developers about, because they'd know. In fact, I should be meeting with...

Yes, but things are getting a LOT better. To be honest, ~$400 for Intel's 160GB actually sounds quite good to me. In all the time I've been using their 80GB drives, I've found them to be a wee bit too small, but given the speed and the density of the 160GB drives, it's actually tempting. Still...

Of course. If I was in a similar situation, I'd sure be doing a <em>lot</em> of things differently.

As long as wireless networks have existed, so has wardriving. I first had a dabble in it when I went to LA in 2004. At the time, there were few wireless networks around my house, so going there and hauling out the laptop while driving (I wasn't driving) was great fun. The list was huge... and...

Ahh my bad. I shouldn't have taken his quote so seriously. Either way, you're right. Despite the drop, you're still going to be paying a huge premium. I took a look at the $1,199 MacBook Pro... one major perk is the battery-life, but is that really worth paying 2x as much? I'd rather get a $600...

From our front-page news:When Intel first launched their X-25M SSD, no one knew what to expect. After all, although Intel is no newbie in the semi-conducter business, storage wasn't exactly their forte. All doubts were quickly put to rest though, as the X-25M (and then the SLC-based X-25E) blew...

From our front-page news: I admit... whenever I post Apple news, I feel like an anti-Apple zealot even though I'm not. It might be the rapid fans of Apple that make me feel that way, or not, but either way, a story posted at CNET last week is just far too humorous to not talk about, and yes, it...

From our front-page news: If you leave your house on a regular basis, or watch TV, chances are good that you know what "5-hour Energy" is. It's like a typical energy drink, but not. In this little bottle are numerous vitamins, amino acids and various other good stuff to help keep you alert and...

I agree to an extent that 5.2 lbs isn't the most desirable weight to lug around all day, but given how solid the build is, and the feature-set, I don't consider it to be too bad. As for your MacBook Pro, Apple puts aesthetics above anyone else, and part of that goes into the price premium. I'm...

From our front-page news: From the "Don't they have anything better to do?" files comes news out of Australia of law enforcement taking unique action against unsecured wireless networks. How so? By wardriving, of course, to find the culprits, and then set them straight. I have to admit, it's...

From our front-page news: Solar and lunar eclipses aren't too rare, but when one does occur, and you happen to live in the right location, then it's a real treat. For the uninitiated, where solar eclipses are concerned, there are four possible outcomes, but three of those four appear almost just...
