    3D TV Sales Are Still Disappointing

    If Apple incorporates 3D into the rumored television set they are working on and then Steve Jobs declares it as "magical," then and only then, will 3D take off. God that is sad.

    Used Game Sales are 'Destructive' to Industry

    I was unable to read the original gamesindustry.biz article that CNET based their article on, but I'm hoping developers are not eyeballing whether or not we can buy/sell used games, but the huge profits Gamestop and other retail outlets are making on the sales of the used games. I think the...

    AMD Gray Screen of DEATH 10.2 Driver Poll

    It took a few days after updating to 10.2 but the GSOD has come back for me. Even though this is the only first GSOD I have had since I updated to 10.2, I really can't say whether or not 10.2 is better than all the previous drivers I have used since the end of October (for the record, I have...

    5870 and 5850s Back in Stock

    Without any near-term pressure from NVidia, it will be interesting to see if AMD keeps the MSRP on the 5800-series cards higher than release MSRP. Funny how there hasn't been too much of a clamor made by Charlie at SemiAccurate about this whole "shortage" and subsequent price increases. Had...

    Modern Warfare 2 Sales Higher Than Expected

    This is crux of the shit storm surrounding the PC implementation of the game. I think a lot of people who are upset are basically taking issue with how Activision finally revealed the changes to the PC multiplayer. After working on the game for probably close to two years, it wasn't until...

    Modern Warfare 2 Sales Higher Than Expected

    Ditto. I cancelled my preorder when I found out the game was going to cost more for less. While I would have gladly paid the extra had the feature set remained the same concerning multiplayer support, I don't begrudge Activision's choices...it is their game and they can do what they want with...

    ATI Catalyst 9.11

    I was hoping this would fix the random gray screen lockups I have been experiencing with the 5750 in my son's Win 7 (64-bit) computer. From the release notes, it doesn't look like they've fixed it, but I did notice a new win 7 known issue that may be what is causing my problem... "On some...

    Modern Warfare 2 Blows Away Launch Records

    Cancelled PC preorder. While I thoroughly enjoyed the first MW on the PC, I absolutely refuse to pay $60 for a PC game without dedicated servers. Had they included dedicated servers, I would have gladly shelled out the cash since I knew I would get my money's worth. Dragon Age is filling up...

    I Hate Dell

    My 2407 had the same problem last year. The solution was pretty low-tech, but it hasn't failed me in over a year. Once you spin the power button into the correct position, apply a small piece of Scotch tape over the button to keep it from spinning. While the tape is slightly visible, it works...

    People Spend Too Much Time on Facebook

    When you compare it to the average WoW addicts time spent playing the game, 125 hrs/year isn't really all that much. Unfortunately, as a dedicated WoW player for the past 5 years, I won't even type /played anymore to avoid doing the mental math and subsequent "I could have done XXXX instead of...

    Lawmakers Seek Ban on Laptops in Airliner Cockpits

    Without a doubt they were asleep...and had they thought the whole thing out, they would have just come clean about it in the first place, claimed fatigue, accuse the airline of overworking them, and in our society today they would have been semi-sympathetic "victims" instead of the "idiots who...

    Nvidia kills GTX285, GTX275, GTX260, abandons the mid and high end market

    That is the problem with "stories" from Charlie. People who have already experienced Charlie's "style" of reporting know that any article bearing his name predominantly comes off as nothing more than a diatribe against Nvidia. His articles convey the sense that he has a personal vendetta...

    XFX Radeon HD 4890 Extreme Review @ [H]

    I understand this was produced before the 5800-series release, but it is very similar to the article from early August on the ASUS EAH4890 TOP (i.e. both reviews featured OC'd 4890s compared to a reference 4890 and a GTX 275). Perhaps a more all ecompassing "Manufacturer OC Board Roundup"...
