Now 3 years strong, our tradition continues. In the first year of our list, we saw some good, some bad ideas. Year two was a lot of the same. Let’s see how everyone feels about our staff’s wish list for 2011 Christmas time! Andrew van Til (Babgvant) In my case it reads a little better backwards 🙂 The AVR-3311 didn’t […]

Good for Google for continuing to update and not abandon their GoogleTV platform which has gotten off to a terrible start. I find a bit of irony in the update going first to Sony users, with Logitech soon to follow, especially considering how much flack Logi has gotten for all the wasted money they put into these boxes.

Radio frequency (RF) has its benefits but requires a special remote control as well as IR blasters for each individual device you are looking to control. Sewell has developed the InjectIR […]
Read moreSorry for the hiatus, had a busy travel schedule recently, but I’m back on the regular now! And what a…decent week to return to. A couple good animated films are out there. Fans of the TV show V will be happy to see that released. Most interesting of the week was Red State from writer/director Kevin Smith, from Jay & […]

I debated whether or not to leave the word “fanless” in the description or not, given that the power supply actually DOES have a fan, but that’s what they’re calling it so I’ll go with it. The geek in me loves seeing these “silent” PSU’s come back in the market. The last version of the Antec Phantom truly silent PSU […]
