    Game Emulation In Linux

    Thanks for the info :) I left out Mednafen because I didn't focus on portable game systems at all, but I did include it in the final chart. I admit, I did not even hear of it until the last moment (actually when I was working on that chart), so I didn't give it a try. I've appended an addendum...

    Indianas costly speeding tickets

    Our favorite provision is the "aggressive driving" misdemeanor. If you drive 46 mph in a highway work zone and perform any aggressive action on a driver in front of you, such as flashing your headlights, and you get caught, you get a $5,000 fine that probably comes with its own Howitzer sound...

    Game Emulation In Linux

    That's what I have been hearing as well. I have never given it a try myself, but I would like to. mupen64 gave me high-hopes because it was well put together and the plug-ins were plenty. I was somewhat surprised that I found it impossible to play a game. That's what we are striving for ;-)...

    Game Emulation In Linux

    A common complaint about Linux is that there is a general lack of games. When emulation is brought into the picture though, it opens up a huge world of gaming possibilities. In this article, we will be looking into what emulation is, installing a gamepad and taking a look at a selection of...

    Haha. We had a contest when the site first opened to a title theme, and that one won. Obliviot - 0 E.M.I. - 50 Coastermaker - 100 Partition Master - 250 Tech Monkey - 500 Tech Junkie - 1000 Master Modder - 2500 Locutus - 5000 Hardw1red - 7500 Tech...

    have to pay for auto backup?

    Make sure your FreeAgent has an eSATA port on it (I assume they all do). It will say it there if it is so. Second, see if the back of your computer has the same port, if it does the FreeAgent probably came with the appropriate cable. If you don't have an eSATA port, you can buy an add-in card...

    have to pay for auto backup?

    You wouldn't want to run programs off of that if it's connected via USB because the bandwidth is low. You can try, but it might prove a slow experience. Being connected via eSATA would be fine. Programs would run just as fast as they would on your internal hard drive. But generally, no, there...

    have to pay for auto backup?

    Haha. Glad you figured out the problem ;-) Welcome to the forums, we hope to see you stick around. The FreeAgent is an awesome product... I'd buy one myself if I didn't already have my own backup scheme.

    Logitech Revised G5

    I will shoot Logitech an e-mail on Monday and see if they know. Like I said in the review, they really seem to careless about this mouse... which is why it's not on the shelves yet. Foolish really.

    Lost Planet Demo DirectX 10 game

    Looks good. I might have to download it and see what it looks like at 1920x1200. I admit though, when the demo came out months ago for the Xbox 360, I found it completely mind-dulling.

    Looking for TV headphone suggestions

    Good stuff. I am definitely considering them, but it will be put off for a few months. I might get a new TV prior to getting those, because 1080p would be nice, and would give me a reason to have nicer headphones. I -still- might pick up a wireless pair for the time being, but I might just hold...

    ASUS A8JS 14inch Widescreen Notebook

    Ugh, how long have you had your laptop for? Broken hinges would be ridiculous. Hopefully it was just your notebook. If it's not old, wouldn't that be under a warranty?

    Looking for TV headphone suggestions

    Oh a lifetime warranty? That makes me reconsider, because if that's the case, you are right about it being the last set I'd have to buy. Still, they are uglier than a drunk Rosie O' Donnell. Thanks man, I will consider those. Won't be for a little while since I have other priorities at the...

    OCZ Acquires PC Power & Cooling

    We've just received word from Jessica at OCZ that they have just acquired what is arguably the biggest brand in high-quality power supplies, PCP&C. This acquisition means a lot for them, most notably that they are really focusing on pushing out quality power supplies, not just memory. As it...
