As someone involved in Marketing, I can definitely see the purpose of this thing; a laptop or an iPad 2 with an HDMI out adapter could mean I could make salient, beautiful demonstrations on short notice. The usage and limitations of the battery power would be very secondary to me than a sturdy frame, screen…

This thing is so deliciously clunky yet sleek, I would swear it was German if I didn't know better.

I've heard nothing but good things about the Monster series athletic headphones: thumping bass and consistent (if muddied) translation of all levels of digital compression sounds like the right cup of tea for the gym, a place where exaltation for Mr. Armstrong is already entrenched.

I agree with you except for the last statement. I have found that the models are rightly the same, old product, regardless of dealer.

My wife recently convinced me, a tech salesman and general enthusiast, that I should hold off pining for a bigger replacement of my Panasonic plasma, which at 42 inches is too small. That I should, in fact, hold off until for a bit. I could then get a bigger TV, she said, teeming with the technology and upgrades I…

I must now launch the unconventional and (by the aesthetic and symmetry) highly likely theory that the Cassini program was a front to launch the long-considered dead photographer Ansel Adams into space for one last shoot.

I'm relieved that this isn't being forced. Some stuff just works better in its original medium, unless it's in the hands of someone who loves it or a studio who is too greedy to let shit happen to an IP.

This reminds me when Apple made a shuffle so small and streamlined that it didn't have room for basic expectations.... like buttons.

yep.

I sell electronics and electronics related accessories, and this green and white bastard has been the subject of many false hopes and (attempted but politely declined) bribes, the most I've seen since the first year the Wii was sold. Of the parents and grandparents, aunts and uncles that I've talked to, it comes down…

I'm reading a surprising amounts of debates about the quality of XP. The only thing that we need to understand is that for databases, XP is the most you can do with certain programs and demands that company's structures are budgeted/experienced to work with.

The accuracy of the statement can be determined by the context of the quotes around it. That he plans on moving away from larger projects and working with young people again are not the words of a man who wants to make another Mario. They are the words of a man who is quite done with that.

Woodfield Mall in Schaumburg Illinois. Probably one of the happiest places on this planet for me. Good to fantastic memories. Wife even bought my wedding band there, and my bachelor party was at a hotel nearby and at Gameworks two blocks away.

Technically, from the Wired article itself "Inside our office, I’ve been recently declaring, ‘I’m going to retire, I’m going to retire,’" Miyamoto said through his interpreter. "I’m not saying that I’m going to retire from game development altogether. What I mean by retiring is, retiring from my current position."

So far I'm unimpressed with the new update. I happen to like Metro, but this doesn't feel like Metro. The UI is stiff, and is overloaded with ads in a way that Windows 8 and WinMo 7 are not. The GUI doesn't bounce and move like the Metro I know, it is stiff and awkward. It doesn't bounce and glide with the same…

I once worked for a newspaper company that wanted to launch their own "community Facebook", spent over 2 million dollars on the infrastructure, and then abandoned the platform after 8 months because no one gave a shit for them, their idea, or their advertising prices.

The best way to change anything is to show, not tell. People with compassion for gay marriage have swayed conservatives, others have voted for candidates they wouldn't have (a rarity, I admit). On the internet, I believe it's mostly tell.

what the hell is a neon deon??????????????????????????????

Nope, I rather liked the conceit of the fairy, and while she was annoying to a small degree, it never got to me. Now Midna's "Click up on the D-Pad" Noise because she's got something to say, that was annoying. Modern Nintendo games have recently been more annoying, like in Twilight Princess where every time you turn…

It's funny to me because I met most of the programmers at Volition when Saint's Row II came out. They're a bunch of laidback dudes who like to hang, chill, and play. This game reeks of Champaign-Urbana late nights, and I meant that in the best way possible.
