FCC Moves One Step Closer in Killing Off Net Neutrality
The FCC has today succeeded in passing a vote to advance the process of instating net neutrality rules. On paper, that sounds like a good thing. In reality, it could lead to a vastly changed Internet. Tom Wheeler, FCC’s Chairman, claims to be in full support of an open Internet, but with…..

AOC’s Latest 24-inch Monitor Packs Dual Speakers in its Base
At quick glance, AOC’s latest 24-inch IPS monitor doesn’t look too different from most others.

Apple’s iOS 8 Could Introduce Split-screen Multitasking
If rumors prove true, Apple will be introducing a feature in iOS 8 that tablet owners all over have wanted: Split-screen multitasking.

As I reported on last week, NVIDIA’s worked hard to port both Portal and Half-Life 2 to its SHIELD handheld, and today, device owners can now purchase either game on the Google Play store.

Tired of the Wait for Half-Life 3, Gordon Freeman Makes His Way to NVIDIA SHIELD
I posted earlier about Portal, and how it’s soon to make its debut on NVIDIA’s SHIELD handheld (our review). As it now appears, that’s not where the Valve-love is going to end. This morning, FedEx came to my door with an unusual package, one small in diameter, but nearly three feet tall. Not…..

Back in January, I wrote about Steam user PalmDesert who crafted some mind-blowing badges during the winter sale: A level 1,000 Snow Globe, and a level 100 foil variant.

Corsair’s AX1500i Power Supply is a Glorious Monster
Power supplies are rarely thought of as the sexiest or most attractive part of a PC. I mean, sure, some of them have things like a bling-tastic LED fan. But only kids and gamers love that kind of thing, right? Just speaking for myself, in my personal rig, I use single-braided cable…..
