    Steam Lucas Arts Week

    It's a fun game if you take it for what it is. But as a Star Wars fan I just couldn't reconcile how casually powerful the characters are when Yoda and the Emperor had to focus much of their force powers just to lift platforms in the Senate.

    Cisco Doubles CEO’s Pay as Profits Soar

    But who are you to say that there's no reason for him to make that much money. Cisco obviously think they reason to so they gave him 19mil. He and Cisco agreed that he would get compensated if he delivered on agreed performance metrics. He did exactly just that.

    ACLU Sues Over Laptop Searches At The Border

    Totally different. A movie theather is privately owned. You do not have the free speech right to talk loud regardless of whatever it is you want to say. Try it even with the most harmless of topic and watch yourself get kicked out.

    Top 5 Geekiest Places to Live in the US

    I lived there 15 years before moving here to Portland. It really does rain constantly for 9 months of the year though it's been dryer the last few years. The good thing tho is Seattle doesn't get the harsh winters other cities as far north experience.

    HP Suing Former CEO Mark Hurd

    It's not the non-compete that is the problem. It's the confidentiality agreement he signed with HP. Like I mentioned before even if he doesn't share any information he has about HP to anybody in Oracle it's the fact that he will be in a position to use confidential HP information for the benefit...

    24" HP LP2465 Dual DVI 1080p Widescreen LCD Monitor w/USB 2.0 Hub 179.99 geeks.com

    The monitor has DVI ports. You'll need an adapter or a cable has a dvi on one end and vga on the other http://vgatodvicable.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/dvi-vga-cable.jpg. Interestingly enough one of mine came with that cable.

    HP Suing Former CEO Mark Hurd
