    The good: 10 TB HDD The bad: it's a Seagate (can be good or bad) The ugly: what happens when it fails (10 TB is still a lot of data)

    Looks like TigerDirect is done

    Apparently TD got bought by another company: http://www.digitaltrends.com/business/pcm-acquires-circuit-city-consolidator-tigerdirect-for-14-million/ Can't say that I'll miss them. Lots of sales involving rebates and less than stellar packing practices.

    GTA V PC Delayed Again

    No not really. I have heard over and over it was Sony/MS that demanded exclusives. Then again RS has released it twice now for the next gen consoles so that argument should be moot. If they delay it any longer, doubt anyone would care to buy it. There will be still people buying it, but...

    Staples Buying Office Depot For $6.3B

    Well, there goes the competition. From 3 to 2 and now possibly 1. That can't be good. It's also a sign of the times and the digital age. Not everyone needs paper and pens as much anymore. Last time I went to a Office Depot, it was a ghost town. Not only that, the Staples up the street closed...
