    Silverlight 5: Back from the Dead?

    Which is to say I'm hopeful this fixes it, and if it does, I'm happy. Just it's been a long battle for me using Netflix on the XP machine..

    Silverlight 5: Back from the Dead?

    I saw in the press release right there in the first sentence "support for GPU-based graphics and video handling" which is exactly what is missing. There have been several news stories about the dominant position of Netflix recently. Many of the comments on those articles were angry users focused...

    Silverlight 5: Back from the Dead?

    Maybe this is finally a response to the Netflix tearing issue? The lack of a Silverlight hardware decoder has destroyed v-sync for anyone using less than Win7 or Vista Pro Aero. The entire Aero desktop has hardware sync and automatically fixes the video playback.. This whole up/downgrade mess...

    Who Needs Friends Like Facebook?

    The best thing you could do for Zuckerberg et al is say that privacy stuff is getting old. Facebook is not the whole enemy; they're blazing a trail for yet another wide open ethical dismissal. Look away if you don't like it is not a strong solution.. This crap is definitely going to follow me if...

    How To Build A Home Office

    Ugh.. Does anyone remember when Consumer Reports recommended the consumer friendly convenience of a 486 Packard Hell system? My mom's friend sure does, and personal-IT friend me does too.. Granted Apple is worlds away but seriously, $1700 is still their "cheap" system price point? I don't think...

    ASUS Unveils the World's Most Compact 5-Channel Speaker

    5.1 channel audio cable which "revives" 5.1 from a 2.0 source, no mention of SPDIF. Hm. I would want a compact speaker system for use with a compact computer, and it sounds like it's not capable of outputting true 5.1 without a full size audio card..
