    Gigaflops And Teraflops Don't Matter - Xbox One Has The Best Games

    Yep, Xbox used a lot cheaper parts in their initial release... but didn't last the test of time. Only through OS upgrades could you extend your xbox 360. It was also a joke when HDDVD came out and they came with a connectable drive. PS3 heavily invested in hardware up front, had built in bluray...

    Verizon CEO: Try a la Carte to Protect Cable

    With the countless bullshit on TV nowadays.. Hulu, Netflix and local antenna for local news in HD are definitely worth waiting to catch up when its the right time. My life doesn't revolve around waiting for something to come on TV. TV is less important than internet, as TV starts dropping...

    One in Three Americans Still Text and Drive

    I believe it.. what's worse is old people (50+) trying to do this.. my father in law is horrible at doing this! I was behind a guy about 50 in a car and kept seeing him in his side view mirror typing in his phone so i honked at him and he jerked, then left it alone. I don't know how any reaction...

    I think the same Bio, its just debatable. I have a lot of devices too and my sons started out wanting to hold onto remotes or go after the phones when they were babies. My oldest son is 4 and he will steal our smart phones and try hiding in his closet to play angry birds or watch youtube. How he...

    Windows 7 Keeps Growing in Popularity Over XP

    I am not saying huge in the since of YES HUGE Enterprise should adapt. Even in the enterprise I work for there is a huge disconnection from the business units willing to adapt to Windows 7 over the past 3 years from Windows XP. There is also the consideration of business applications that do not...

    Windows 7 Keeps Growing in Popularity Over XP

    The changes from Win7 to Win8 will be huge for enterprise. Early adoption is not an option , over the next 5 years...yes, the underlying platform of windows 8 will be welcomed but it takes smaller interactions for most users to accept it broadly.

    Exactly dead on, please find the tracking "toggle" in setting for Windows 8. Use information is being tracked and sent to Microsoft unless you disable it. On the otherhand, yes it is very valuable to Microsoft so they can start understanding how to sell this to the hard to change people. It is a...

    AMD Powers Superior Windows 8 Experience

    Agreed - the APUs are not bad for small budget and work quite well. Intel on the other hand are lagging in this arena. I don't think any of us will notice any difference in most [H] configurations since we use dedicated GPUs.

    Hackers Can Turn Off Pacemakers Thirty Feet Away

    Because these pacemakers were developed by an engineer and doctors who think they know a lots abouts the technologies. It's the engineer to develop such a device and a doctor to oversee the use. I can tell you security is ALWAYS the last thought until you become compromised -- IN EVERY business.

    Monoprice 10th Anniversary Sale-Day 1 Mechanical Keyboard $90.86

    When I was rewiring my house and buying tons of cabling for audio, ethernet, speaker wire, coax cable I was definitely reminded that if you don't purchase everything you need in the context of one order it can bite you very fast with respect to shipping costs from MonoPrice.

    Broadband: U.S. Consumers Pay More For Less

    Most of the offerings in KS are Cable or DSL. We will be the last state for an infrastructure upgrade. Hell , there are still people using straight 56k modems here. Unless there is an incentive for large companies to build out infrastructure...it is not going to happen.

    Microsoft: 500M Will Run Windows 8 In 2013

    I really don't think the "average" consumer gives a damn if its Windows 8 or Windows 9 and they remove the entire GUI completely they will still buy it. Your "average" consumer is also not looking into alternatives such as any of the Linux flavors. Your average consumer only wishes to be able...

    Using In-Game Money To Buy Real Video Cards?

    Pedestrian Airbag Technology

    For that matter, they are using common sense...in the states at least too many bumbling fools cross the street without looking both ways, too busy on their cell phone (either texting or talking), or feel they have the right to run in front of a car anyway because the car will yield to them...

    Why The Holdouts Aren't Buying An iPad 3

    Just like others have said...NO need for more technology..atleast, not at my household. I've literally spent thousands of dollars every year in "new gear."

    Amazon: Star Wars: Old Republic $39.99 (today only)

    I have to agree...it is a lot of fun during 1-49....Then it slowly drops off. I am very big into PVP and made it to 65 valor. But, at the same time it felt as "first come first serve" basis to achieve this since you are so dependent on gear and less utilization of actual skill in PVP. End...
