Has Cheating Ruined Gaming?
That seems like a straight-forward question, but what exactly is cheating? Indeed, “cheating” could refer to a hundred different things, from hacking a game to explore it beyond the way it was meant to be, typing in a code to enable a God mode, or to take advantage of a glitch to make your game life easier. The big question, though…
StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty is Out!
What’s that sound? Ahh, it’s of course the millions of gamers looking to be the first to hit 300 APM in StarCraft II, of course! That’s right, StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty is officially released, and the servers are live. I personally know of a few people who headed out for midnight launches in various cities, which told me two things. One, I totally…
Quick Impressions of openSUSE 11.3
About two weeks ago, the openSUSE Project released version 11.3 of its popular Linux distribution, and after putting it off for quite a while, I decided to give the latest version a download and see what SUSE has been up to. After all, the last time I took a serious look at SUSE (over four years ago!), it still went by “SuSE“… yes, it’s been…
Are Only 0.3% of Torrents Legal?
I’m sure this will come as a surprise to no one, but a popular use for the BitTorrent protocol is downloading illegal materials, whether they be movies, music, games, applications, books or any other piece of copyrighted digital property. You probably also realize that the effect of this is huge, and in the grand torrenting scheme, downloading…
Rogers Lowers Bandwidth Limits, Increases Overage Fees
Ahh, the company I love to hate has given me yet another reason to continue hating. In the past, I mentioned that Rogers (Canadian do-all media deliverer) intercepts your Web searches to go to its own ad-ridden search in lieu of whatever your browser’s default search engine choice might be, and of course, who could forget the debacle…
Intel Updates Processor Line-up, Introduces Core i7-970
Earlier this month, a rumor surfaced that claimed Intel would be launching some new processor models this summer, and sure enough, it’s proven true… and a lot sooner than I expected. This past weekend, Intel quietlyupdated its processor line-up, adding some fresh faces to the line-up, as well as purging a slew as well…

Optimizing Your Firefox Installation with SpeedyFox
In the software world, the word “Boost” is synonymous with the exclamation, “BS!”, as nearly every kind of third-party software speed boost turns out to have the unwritten small print of “under certain conditions”… roughly translated as “this is useless”. People often try to speed up their Internet connection with MTU adjustments, page…
ASUS Releases 3D Vision-equipped VG236H LCD Monitor
For about as long as NVIDIA has been touting 3D Vision, it has been promoting a kit that bundles both a monitor and the 3D Vision package together, effectively giving people a one-stop shop for getting into 3D on the PC. The monitor was the 2233RZ, and anyone who has read up on 3D Vision in the past no doubt recalls that model…
Need the Most Unsecure Linux Ever? Just Get Damn Vulnerable Linux!
When choosing which OS to run, or when updating to the latest version of your preferred OS, chances are that you are thinking about the improved security you’re about to equip yourself with. Well, at least I hope you do. What you probably don’t think about, or stress over, is just how unsecure the OS is. It’s even more unlikely that you go…
AMD to Soon Drop Graphics Card Prices?
The folks over at DigiTimes have stated what a lot of us have been thinking for a while… graphics card price cuts on current product is inevitable, and should be en route soon. Last week, NVIDIA launched its first truly affordable Fermi-based solution, the GeForce GTX 460 (we’ll have our review shortly), and next month, we’ll be seeing…
Kingston Launches Simple Contest with Huge Prizes
Interested in entering a tech contest that for once awards big prizes, rather than a bunch of little ones? Well, it looks like Kingston has exactly what you’re looking for, but unfortunately, it benefits only those who live in the United States. What makes this contest interesting isn’t the method of entering, but rather the prizes… no product…
Has StarCraft II Become the Most Expensive Game Ever Developed?
With the rip-roaring success (understatement) of the original StarCraft game, Blizzard wasn’t about to walk into the development room for the sequel and not pony up some cold hard cash to make sure that it gets the best ratings possible and sells like there’s no tomorrow. Well, it sure accomplished one of those goals so far, and we’ll…
Apple Offering Free Phone Bumpers to iPhone 4 Owners
Well. I admit that I didn’t see this coming. It should come as no surprise to anyone that some iPhone 4users have been battling with a problematic antenna, as the issue has been dominating the headlines ever since the phone’s launch. There has been no shortage at all of speculation, with some wondering if Apple would turn one of the…

NZXT Going out of Business? Not Quite!
It seems that someone, or something has it out for our friends at NZXT. I didn’t catch it, but either late Sunday or all day Monday, NZXT’s official site was hacked. Aside from much of the database being purged, for products and other things, a mass e-mail was sent out via what I suspect would be NZXT’s forums (although I didn’t receive…
Free Alternatives to Adobe Reader for Viewing PDF’s
Portable Document Format files, or PDF’s for short, are pretty much ubiquitous in today’s computing, as they are a standard way of sharing documents within the business world. They are used for proofing, filling out forms, NDA’s, insurance claims, and just about anything that requires information to be presented to the user within a fixed and…
Who Rules the SSD World Right Now?
Last week, storage-tracking site StorageSearch posted an interesting report that listed some predictions as to the growth of SSD’s in the future, and also includes a top ten list of companies that are important to solid-state technology right now. Not surprisingly, there are a few names on that list that are familiar, and some that are likely not.
