    ASUS Eee Pad Transformer coming Tuesday 4/26

    I bought one and the first thing it did was the OTA update to 3.1 I have found playback of HTML embedded and discrete app youtube/flash to be excellent. The device is susceptible to flaky wireless connections (like any other device) and a few places I go have problems due to low/intermittent...

    Gearbox Community Day 2011

    This is a really cool thing. What a way for a dev team to blow off steam after a project goes gold. I hope everybody, especially Gearbox, has a blast!

    ASUS Eee Pad Transformer coming Tuesday 4/26

    Could anyone comment on PDF viewing and available PDF annotation software? All the fancy capabilities are really attractive but I want to know about the actual tablet functionality. I want to go back to paperless (had a convertible tablet for a while and it was good but this looks like my...

    Graphene Won't Replace Silicon in CPUs

    Graphene is a fabrication NIGHTMARE. The idea of making an atom-thick structure with CONTROLLED and known properties several million times over PER CHIP is mind boggling. Now, it's pretty mind boggling that chips exist at all so it was worth the effort to research. There all ready are other...

    New Device Could Revolutionize Computer Memory

    Looks like a fabrication nightmare to me. A lot of applications outside of your home computer come to mind for me. Everything from TV's/DVR's to routers and mobile devices. Telecomm routers, and other infrastructure in-line computing might like this, too. With the advent of SSD's I'm not...

    Why You Should Buy Refurbished Computers

    Refurb for a desktop is probably fine. there are WAYY too many things that can go wrong with laptops (plus the possibility of physical abuse that didn't leave marks) for me to ever consider buying a refurb laptop. Well, maybe if I got a 1 yr warranty and used a credit card that doubled the...

    Nintendo Making Games That Can Play Themselves

    this is one bit of premium content that I actually am in favor of game designers charging for...slippery slope, though

    Why We Should Play Bad Games

    i'll play mediocre games for 10 bucks, sure. It's the pure crapshoot between the mediocre and above-average games that keeps me from ever paying $60 for a new title, ever. That includes the AAAA titles for me.

    THQ: Games Cost Too Much

    I've never paid more than 50 for a game, ever. I'll wait or deal hunt and if something better comes out in the mean time I'll get that and the game goes into the "some day" list. Eventually I'll buy it used or buy it on steam for 5-10. Ever since the POS that was UT2k3 I've been very wary...

    Wicked Lasers Spyder III Arctic 1W Blue Laser *screaming*

    scary stuff to have this power for so cheap. The only uses I can think of are science-related and the power is probably too big for most of those! Even 1/2 that power will burn though a few micrometes of highly-absorbing stuff really quickly (seconds, tops). just be CAREFUL with this...

    AT&T Just Killed Unlimited Wireless Data

    free for me, too. I use unlocked phones, though. I have a grandfathered plan w/ unlimited data. Looks like I'm not changing anything, well, ever. If they try to change my plan I'm out for a different company so fast their head will spin.

    Lenovo S10-3t

    I've been keeping an eye on netbook tablets and, honestly, the HP tm2t is a way better bang for your buck, given that the netbook convertible tablets hover around 400-500. The HP is a ULV-processor machine so it has a full processor, you can get one even with discrete graphics, and it has...
