Damn, this is upsetting. I had a good feeling about the development of DNF when I saw how well the Duke Nukem 3D Xbox Live Arcade version was selling (it's sold well over a hundred thousand units, and it could even be multiple hundred thousand), and even apparently wasn't enough cash to help...

From our front-page news:Of all the games currently in development, Duke Nukem Forever is one in particular that's been made fun of time and again. How long will it take to see a release? Forever, of course. Sadly, that might actually be the case, as it has become known that the development...

I had Crossover Games installed on this machine a few times in the past (even recently), but I've since uninstalled it and see no reason to go back. Most games it supports can also be supported with the free version of Wine with some tweaking, and to add to it, the supported games list is far...

Glider: Most sites out there use a fixed-width just like we do, and the reason is simply because many people who view the web still use super-old resolutions, such as 1024 and 1280. Most of these people are likely surfing from work where they're limited to what resolution they use, but it's the...

Good point. Plus, it's just another thing to go bad at some point down the road, and if it does, it would probably render the board useless (unless protections were installed).

I'm confused. What's the difference between what you're speaking of and this Z-Drive? It's also a RAID SSD PCI-E card.

It's been announced: URL It costs $489, while the original costs $359, but to be honest, the hike in the price almost seems worth it if you want more real-estate. The difference in screen size is HUGE.

That's not a bad idea either, to be honest. EVGA just released a product not long ago that does the same thing for a regular desktop. You plug in a PCI card to the main machine, then use the external box elsewhere in the house to use the main computer through the network at what EVGA claims to...

From our front-page news:I'll be honest. When I picture computer gaming, the last thing I think of is Minesweeper, but, its popularity cannot be denied. Given that it's included in Windows, and has been for a while (at least since 3.x), there are few people who haven't opened it to waste a few...

Mike: Yeah, that's the Skulltrail cooler I was talking about... I think it goes for about $600. Far too expensive. It'd be way cheaper to get the new Xeon setup like I said. They run hot too, but you don't feel like you need a $600 CPU cooler either. I'd actually be interested in seeing how...

We recently introduced the newest member of our staff, Brett Thomas, who will be heading up our Senior Editor position. There, Brett will help both with site direction and also management. To help kick things off, he has a few things he'd like to share on some of the upcoming changes you can...

Cooling is the biggest thing with Skulltrail. In talking to one of the performance nuts at Intel a few weeks ago, who's currently running Skulltrail at home, he told me he's running CoolIT's Skulltrail edition cooler. Nice, but the thing is damned expensive. Far too expensive. At that point, I'd...

I agree, and that's the problem with Linux. I've said it a million times, but Linux needs a universal installer that works the same on each distro, and it shouldn't be one through the command-line. The problem is, this is not going to happen, because each distro is headed by someone with a...

Good find, and I agree, that's one thing we shouldn't have to worry about. Rather than a SODIMM slot, boards should just have 2GB of super-fast flash memory or something. It's cheap enough nowadays.

Alright, I had no idea that the Z-Drive supported booting. I e-mailed OCZ but haven't received a response. That sounds amazing though... such speed on a bootable drive... that you can actually install all of your apps to! Too bad the cost-of-entry is a little (lot) high right now. Sure won't...

That's what bugs me... it's like that with everything. TV's used to last forever, but when I bought my 26" LCD TV back in 2005, it had developed serious problems by early 2006... which is absolutely needless. For the price I paid for that piece of crap, I could purchase a 40" TV today! I'm not...

Whew, there's a lot of great thoughts here. I as much enjoy to be a power user as much as the next guy, but I quite like media centre front-ends, as long as they're done well. Sadly, that doesn't seem to be the case right now, and you really have to try a huge array before you find one that...

Nothing happens to the old Kindles... it seems like the new ones are just upgraded, so they'll cost more. It would have been nice to see them both launched at the same time though. Talk about a piss-off for those early-adopters of the second generation.

You just had to, didn't you? It's too bad the NE/Colts match this year is in IND... friend and I were going to go if it was in NE (much closer to drive to). Oh well, still looking forward to watching it on the big screen, and being able to mock my friend when the Colts kick NE's ass.

Hah, I almost missed it thanks to the slew of things that was going on, but thankfully I didn't. Overall, a rather depressing match, but not for United fans. I wasn't at all confident about Arsenal winning this one, especially after the first leg (we were lucky to lose by 1:0 in that one), so...
