it's not Logitech. Logitech has never made a 360 steering wheel. They don't want to pay the licensing fees. In fact, you won't find any Logitech branded controllers with the Xbox.

yes, you have. every day. when you buy a 1 TB drive, you don't actually get 1 TB. after doing a 1024/1000 conversion and formatting, that 1 TB is really only about 930 GB. You've "lost" 70 GB. but do you cry about it? of course not.

good catch. I have the wireless speed wheel one. once you adjust the deadzones, this one is a lot of fun.

yeah, but there's a lot more built into Windows. you have nearly a full version of Office 2013. you have a ton of device drivers for printers, scanners, etc. Skype, Skydrive, calendar app, etc. are already built in. so things that you would normally download to take up space are already there. It's better than…

I'd take my Trackball Optical over yours anyday! :p always was a fan of the thumb trackballs over the fingers. maybe because I was traumatized as a kid with centipede at the arcade and getting my fingers caught in the side between the ball and the edge.

pretty amazing work there. getting all those high quality photos is amazing. and my trackball optical is there!!! woohoo. best "mouse" I've ever owned.

man, you're a major multitasker...

that's an interesting perspective. I actually signed up for Live Messenger because my classmates had it. I grew up on AIM. maybe it's the fact that Americans have been using Windows forever and in the early days of the Internet, there was no built-in client for Windows so people found third-party solutions like…

I think this disbelief at how many people use Live Messenger stems from that fact that we live in the US. I went to a study abroad program and everyone I met used Live Messenger. It was really freaky.

haha. trying to convince people to go from an OS that 90% of the population understands how to use versus an OS that 1% of the population knows how to use. Linux is a totally different paradigm. people won't even know how to download and install software. it's laughable that you lump Windows with MacOS. At least…

this is completely wrong. If you don't want to get stuff from the Windows Store, you don't have to. If you prefer to buy from Steam, then buy from Steam. Only the Windows Store is locked down, not Windows. Windows is as open as it always was.

I have a 3 monitor setup and multitask just fine. my primary monitor is a vertical portrait monitor. my secondary and tertiary monitors are traditional horizontal landscape monitors. here's 2 of the monitors when I move the start screen to the secondary display (very easy to move the start screen to whatever…

pinball fx2 has a free table. feels just like pinball fx2 on the 360 and zen pinball on the PS3. sudoku free is great. the microsoft games are great (all of them have been redone with modern graphics). you can even tailor the solitaire games to how you like them. lots of free software in the Windows Store.

this is what I love about the facebook integration with minecraft. I see something I like and hit the Y button and the screenshot is sent to my facebook album...

there's a fun hybrid breakout/jrpg game called Wizorb in the Xbox Live Indie Games section (XBLIG). it's only $1 too.

there was lots of benefits for Microsoft. one is currency valuation. a game is 400 point in the US. that's worth $5. that game is still 400 points in New Zealand but it's not equivalent to $5 in NZ. It's valued at what's appropriate for NZ. But instead of saying this game is $5 in the US, $7 in England, $8 in…
