    Parents punish kid... kid hires hitman

    Ryder caught a ride from his mom's friend to go meet the "hitman," and offered up his stepdad's pickup as payment. He was quickly taken into custody where he is being held for attempted murder. While I'm sure every "parents with too much free time" group will use this to pin all of society's...

    Razer Mako

    Razer keeps giving me the same answer over and over, so I would not be the least bit surprised if it is delayed until the new year. We were supposed to see it months ago, and I had figured we would see it for sure last month, but that never happened. December, I think, would be a minimum.

    Crysis Single Player Demo

    15FPS for High settings 2560x1600 here (Quad-Core, 8800GTX). It's playable, but a second GPU would really, really come in handy.

    Nvidia's 8800GT Released

    Are you the same Naish from New Brunswick? I agree, the 8800GT is an incredible looking card. I love the 8800GTX, but pair two of the 8800GT's together and you have something that surpasses its performance and costs less. Definitely a win/win. If I have time I'll pick to up next week and...

    Could PlentyOfFish Be Worth $1 Billion?

    From our front-page news: I first learned about PlentyOfFish last year when a friend passed me a link. It was an impressive read. One man, one server, and $10,000 per day ($3.5m/y). It's hard to not feel a bit envious. It turns out the site is still growing rapidly with over 500,000 unique...

    Planar 24-inch PX2411W Wide-Screen

    I admit, that screen looks great. I still don't think I could ever go back to a CRT though... they just take up way too much room.
