How the watch is stored will also have a small effect on how it keeps time.

Yeah I looked into that but decided I didn't want to deal with the wireless thing and at the time there were no good reviews of it so I didn't know if it would work properly for gaming. Went with a fully mechanical QPAD MK50 keyboard and it's a joy to type on but sometimes I do wish it had more laptop like buttons.

I like how the current Apple keyboards feel. I'd love to have one for my PC too but the Apple ones don't work all that great without digging for Bootcamp drivers and they're not very good for gaming because they can't handle that many keys together.

To me a smart TV would be just something that has a great remote (not those "90% buttons are useless" deals) and can stream and decode pretty much any video format. At the moment I use my PS3 for this via PS3 Media Server but unfortunately its far from perfect thanks to PS3's lacking video format support.

This should become standard just to circumvent the shitty design that is the USB connector. Seriously, mini-USB is easy, but the standard one you have to always guess which way it should go in as the port can be vertical or horizontal or upside down or whatever.

There is nothing difficult about it. All they need is two versions of the software - a time or content limited trial version and the full one. This isn't any different from what developers do outside the app store. If the user buys the software, then it is simply replaced by the full version similar to an update.

Exactly. Would it really be that difficult to just add a "try it" option right next to the buy button?

Content can be scaled. In essense all you're going to see is sharper icons and text on the iPad 3. You won't have more screen space or smaller icons as the size of the icons is based on the size of a touch target, aka the recommended size for something that is activated by poking it with your finger.

They may give plenty of explanations for it. It doesn't take the fact that it takes pretty much no effort to design that logo. It's not memorable or unique. The flag, even if it was a strange metaphor, is already pretty iconic.

Most likely the only ones truly bothered by this are system admins who have to upgrade multiple machines. In those cases the USB stick would come in handy. But then again they should be competent enough to make their own anyway.

What I want to know is why don't TVs support better split screen options? This would allow you to use say, two PS3s and play online with a friend using only one TV. Likewise you could watch two TV channels in a more sensible way than those tiny picture in picture modes some TVs have.

It is. There are true 120Hz displays for computers, but not TVs. This is mostly because HDMI is limited to 1920x1200 @ 60 Hz. While HDMI 1.4 would be able to deliver at 120Hz, it isn't truly supported by most devices and takes a lot more bandwidth.

Meh. It's nowhere even close to the amount of fuckups Adobe has in every single program it has ever made.

Exactly. I have Chrome and Firefox open at work all the time and have never even bothered looking how much memory they use. It just doesn't matter when every modern computer these days comes with at least 4 GB.

You oversimplified the LED part. Cheaper LED LCD TVs have white edge LEDs whereas the higher end ones have RGB LEDs. Especially the cheap ones are more prone to edge light bleed than CCFL displays. Uniformity can also be worse than on CCFL displays.

I imagine what happens is that bigger pieces of bread simply get stuck in there because they can't fold out of the thing. Kind of like the reverse problem of too small pieces being difficult to get out of most toasters because they don't let you lift them high enough.

So essentially they simply changed a few settings. With the quality of earphones being what it is, this will most likely be pretty inaudible. Especially now that Spotify seems to cut off far more often than it did before hitting the US.

You can get nice gamepad control using the MotionInJoy Xbox 360 mode at least in GTA4. I haven't tried it with other games but in GTA you can switch between the controller and mouse+keyboard however you please - mouse+keys for walking/shooting, gamepad for driving.

What has bothered me in past Windows versions, including 7, is that there is this certain half-bakedness to nearly all features. Like they tried to make the feature work better and easier to use but in the end simply added a glossier interface that doesn't solve the initial problem at all. I don't think I've ever…

To start, turn the brightness WAY down from the default value to get better blacks and more accurate colors. It doesn't need to be a tanning device and the words "vivid colours" are not what you should be looking for - accurate colors can seem much more muted but ultimately you get a better picture.
