    Apple Used Trick Photography To Make New iPhones Look Thinner

    Couple of things: 1. Does anyone really want a thinner phone? In my opinion they are getting to be too thin to handle comfortably. 2. Why cares what it looks like? You go by the numbers. Numbers and statistics are what you pay attention to.

    First Look At Windows 8.1

    I don't see why people love tablets. You still have to lug around a laptop since most of the tablets, such as the iPad, only run apps. The surface pro looks fantastic. For most tasks on the go I use my iPhone. The iPad has too many cons. It is as bulky as a laptop and only has the functionality...

    I think he is pointing out that they have tried to improve the Start Screen which isn't even useful in the first place. They need to be focused on improving other things, such as usability.

    First Look At Windows 8.1

    I actually like change when it improves my experience. You can't really talk about tablets because Windows is being marketed for the desktop. And from everything I have read my optimism about Windows 8 has turned to disappointment. I really, really want to like it. MS just hasn't made it easy. I...

    First Look At Windows 8.1

    It seems like many of the Windows 8 supporters are just trying to say that Windows 8 is as good as Windows 7. It is supposed to be a lot better in order to justify the cost and time of upgrading.

    First Look At Windows 8.1

    Am I the only one who really misses the look of Windows 7? The look of Windows 8 reminds me of 3.1. Why not give me the option to turn Aero on or off? What is the benefit of having a bleeding edge system if the graphics look like crap?

    First Look At Windows 8.1

    I think my biggest gripe is that Microsoft seems to focus on crap that I never use. I don't care if Windows shows me the an app store, weather, twitter and Facebook crap along with news stories. Show me how it makes my gaming, editing photos, and desktop publishing better. The start screen...

    MB Raid???

    MB Raid???

    Why do people talk about re-installing Windows as if it is a 5 minute procedure? It is a frickin nightmare to un-register, re-install and re-register it. Takes a solid day to get things back to the way they were.

    DOT and EPA Announce New Gas Mileage Regulations

    Watch Hackers Steal A BMW In Three Minutes

    What gets me about thieves is how they don't seem to care about consequences. If I was planning to steal a car I would fear that the owner would come out in a rage and shoot me until dead. So then my thought process would tell me that my possible death outweighs the benefits of stealing a car...

    Demise of the desktop...

    Apple Technology Stops iPhones From Filming Live Events

    NVIDIA Next Gen GeForce Teaser

    Which card is better?

    What sandy bridge models are affected by the recall?

    I bought an MSI P67A-GD65 board and 2500k for my daughter this weekend but haven't assembled it yet. I am tempted to just use the un-affected ports considering she isn't going to need more than a couple of them anyway.
